Chapter 1677: Delivering Sculptures

"Merry Christmas." Ivan's lip curled slightly, aloof and perfunctory.

Catherine was very happy. She saw some people carrying two large objects covered in red cloth off the plane, mysterious and intriguing. It took two big men to carry one sculpture and four men to carry the other two.

"Mr. Marsh," she looked at Ivan, then at those men, before bringing her gaze back curiously. "May I ask what those are?"

Why bring such strange things here?

Ivan glanced over. He answered gently, "Those are gifts I prepared for the two princes."

He had his hands in his pockets, expressionless but gentle as water.

Ivan explained, "I was too rushed last time I was here and didn't have time to replace suitable gifts. These two sculptures are exquisite works of art that I commissioned master artists to create. There are only two in the world, and I think the princes will surely like them."

"Mr. Marsh went to great effort. I thank you on Taylor's behalf," Catherine sincerely appreciated it. She thought to herself that Louis was getting a free sculpture out of this.

Mr. Marsh only gifted the sculptures for her, Catherine's, sake.

"Come, let's bring them directly to the princes. No need to go through the Queen's palace. We'll go to Prince Taylor first," Ivan said placidly.

Catherine could clearly see that Mr. Marsh was in a good mood today.

That he was going to Taylor first proved he was doing Louis as an afterthought.

Ivan was very thoughtful, making Catherine extremely happy. He made sure no one would suspect his true intentions.

And so, they headed towards Taylor's palace.

But Catherine suddenly thought of something. She hurriedly took out her phone and called her son.

Right now, Taylor was furious. He had smashed many things and was still venting his anger. The room was a complete mess.

So he didn't pick up the phone or even hear it ring.

Realizing her son was having a tantrum, Catherine turned to Jolie beside her and whispered something.

Jolie understood and hurried off.

Catherine then smiled and said to Ivan as they walked, "Mr. Marsh, in the royal family, even though the Queen is gone, Louis is the eldest son. I think we should deliver your sculpture to his palace first."

She was buying time for her son to calm down. He had the habit of smashing things when angry, and it wouldn't be good for Mr. Marsh to see that.

"That's fine," Ivan glanced at her, smiling as he complimented, "The Queen is very magnanimous."

Hearing his praise made Catherine beam happily. She suddenly felt very accomplished, certain that Mr. Marsh would side with her and help her. As they chatted, the group headed towards Louis's palace.

Along the way, Catherine introduced the palace's history that met their eyes. She was quite familiar with everything here after all.

At this time, Jolie hurried into Taylor's palace.

"Captain," the servants at the door greeted respectfully, heads bowed low.

Just inside, Jolie heard crashing sounds and frowned, quickening her pace.

Reaching the door, the scene before her was somewhat shocking. She took a deep breath to steady herself.

"Prince!"

At Jolie's shout, Taylor looked over upon hearing her voice, a bit annoyed to see her at the door.

Jolie took two steps forward and coldly told the servants frozen in fear, "Hurry and clean this up. Important guests will be here soon!"

"Yes." Only then did the servants dare start cleaning.

Taylor's mood stabilized somewhat. Who was coming?

He didn't care!
