Surprised Wife With Twins novel Chapter 1718

Chapter 1718: Can I Meet the King?

Jennifer thought for a moment, her eyes sincere, "Queen, I must also go, even if I am stopped by him. This is my etiquette. If I was an ordinary woman, being rude would not matter much, but today I came to visit your country as Mrs. Marsh. Being rude would lead to gossip, and we are a country of courtesy to begin with. I would feel bad if I did not at least try to see the king."

Catherine was silent, feeling a bit conflicted. She felt Jennifer's words made sense, but the king would not even see his own son now, how could he meet a foreigner? It would be very awkward to be rejected. After all, she is Mrs. Marsh.

Ivan also looked at Catherine. Without discussing, he of course stood by his wife's side, also knowing what his wife wanted to do.

Catherine met Ivan's gaze. She certainly did not want to offend him or ruin his reputation.

Unsure what to do, Catherine looked towards the woman standing behind her. Jolie's eyes were downturned, her expression cold. She did not speak either.

Just then, Jennifer smiled and said, "Queen, when my husband came, the king held a banquet to welcome him. If I come knowing he is severely ill and do not try to see him, it would be hard to explain."

She appealed to Catherine's emotions and reason.

Finally, Catherine could refuse no longer. She put down her teacup and stood up, "Alright, I will take you there now."

She desperately wanted to win over Ivan! She wanted to become friends with him, use his power to bring down Ethan, and seize the throne from Louis' hands in the future!

After all, this sickly king could not be relied upon.

Jolie had always been very perceptive. She felt Mrs. Marsh's sudden visit had ulterior motives, definitely not just missing her husband.

No man was worth missing this much.

With the recent turmoil within the royal family, any sudden occurrence deserved suspicion. Having lived amidst the undercurrents of the royal family, Jolie had developed professional habits.
