Chapter 1590: Katharine's Thoughts

Claire looked at him, full of gratitude. As she turned to look out the window again, she felt somewhat lost inside. "Actually I'm more worried about his safety. Although this is his home, he hasn't lived here for years. There are definitely more enemies than friends around him."

"That's why we're here," Ivan said. "So he won't have to fight alone."

Claire nodded. She was determined to do her best to help him too.

With Ivan by her side, Claire felt much more at ease.

She had always heard her brother mention Ivan's capabilities and connections. He was like a god who held up half the sky in Arkpool City, and had great influence internationally as well. Almost any matter he wanted to resolve would get resolved.

"Don't worry. I'll replace a way to see him and not cause him any trouble," Ivan said. "Our only goal today is to figure out his situation first, and what he needs us to do."

"Ivan, why did he live anonymously in Arkpool City when he's the prince of Lu Layuoka?" Claire was very puzzled. "Was he not favored here? Then why did they bring him back?"

"To be honest, I'm not very clear about his matters. I only know of his identity," Ivan answered truthfully. "I've told you everything I know that day, so your confusion is also my confusion now." Just then, the man sitting behind them received a call. He glanced at the caller ID and reported, "Ivan, it's Queen Katherine."

"Answer it."

The man picked up and put it on speaker. A woman's voice came through, "Ivan, where are you now?"

Ivan didn't reply. The man then spoke up, "Hello Queen Katherine. Ivan will arrive shortly."

"How many of you are there?" the queen asked. "So I can arrange accommodation."

"Seven," the man said, including Claire in the count. "Six men and one woman, our assistant came along too."

But didn't he say six men before? Is there a female assistant too?

Katherine didn't dwell on it too much. "Alright, noted." But she had an idea - successful men on business trips tended to bring a young and pretty female assistant. It was normal.

In the modern styled palace, Katherine hung up with a corner of her lips involuntarily curving up slightly. She looked to her confidante beside her, "He's here so quickly, it shows he cares about this project." But the somber Julie said, "Caring about the project doesn't mean caring about you. He's just a businessman."

"Yes, he's a businessman," Katherine smiled. "So I know what businessmen want. They care about profits. I can pay him double for this castle park project."

Julie was very calm. "He's not an ordinary businessman, he's Ivan. He can't be led by the nose for money."

"Exactly because he's no ordinary businessman, he may be able to help us. I wouldn't need him if he was a regular businessman," Katherine said.

She had planned long ago, "Ivan has a branch in Lu Layuoka. As long as we befriend him, we can give him many policy benefits."

Julie looked at the queen slowly, falling into contemplation.

Katherine smiled and said, "With his support, our side's power would instantly grow stronger. What do we have to fear from just Eden?"

But Julie and Katherine were very clear that with Prince Louis' support now, Eden's side was not to be underestimated either.

Once Prince Louis succeeded the throne, Eden would be second only to the king. Taylor's days definitely wouldn't be easy then. That was why Katherine was anxious to get Ivan on her side.
