NovelStartChapter 1746: Marriage is Possible, but with a Condition
"Alright," the king looked at his son, then at the girl beside him, his expression somewhat serious, "But | have a condition."
This sudden change in direction made the two young people exchange glances. Was there another test to pass?
Rowan tightly held Claire's hand, his determination unwavering regarding marrying her.
Seeing the young couple's nervousness, the king smiled, not one to beat around the bush, and said in a relaxed tone, "As long as
you are willing to inherit the throne, | will acknowledge this marriage and allow you two to be together."
"You..." Rowan gazed at him intently, having no interest in the throne himself.
Claire, however, breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the king wasn't insistent on separating them.
Whether or not to inherit the throne was a matter for the father and son to discuss, a major issue that could be addressed in the
future, unrelated to the essence of marriage.
Rowan remained calm, speaking unhurriedly, "Father, your health is gradually improving, and you will soon make a complete

"I know that," the king expressed confidence in his recovery, but his mind was made up, "But | hope to see you firmly established
on the throne in my lifetime. With your medical skills, | won't restrict your development. You can benefit the people of Lu Layeka
and establish hospitals here, but you must becthe king."
Upon hearing this, Rowan felt as if his head was spinning!
He was indifferent to fand power, just wanting to find a place to hide.
"Father, have your medicine again, it's getting late," Rowan changed the subject, then turned to fetch the medicine.
Unscrewing the cap and bringing it over, he handed the bottle to him, "We'll discuss other matters later."
After all, getting married would have to wait until his father's health recovered.
Taking the bottle of medicine, the king glanced at him, and in a playful manner, said, "Then let's talk about the wedding later. See
if the young lady can wait."
Claire pursed her lips, involuntarily lowering her eyes, her cheeks flushing.
According to the king, inheriting the throne must cbefore the wedding. It seemed to be a matter of cause and effect.
After finishing the medicine, the king handed the bottle to him, "Louis, tonight, you should accompany Claire well. The
thunderstorm is quite intense, it could frighten her, don't linger here."
Directly shooing him away, he created an opportunity for the two of them.
Claire was left feeling... not knowing what to say about her future father-in-law.
In fact, he was quite democratic, without any airs of a king.
After placing the medicine bottle, and after observing for these past few days, Rowan and his father had screened a list of
servants, identifying those who hadn't been bought by Eden and remained loyal to the king and the royal family. Everyone was well
aware.
Moreover, the guards were loyal and devoted, all under General Lee's command.
So much had happened recently, and Rowan had a lot to say to Claire. For young people deeply in love, enduring until now was no
easy feat.

Thus, he didn't insist on staying with his father, but simply nodded in agreement, "Alright, I'll have the servants watch outside.
Ring if you need anything."
"It's just going to sleep, nothing urgent," the king said, reclining back without waiting for Rowan's assistance. Jennifer had indeed
brought effective medicine.
Covering himself with the blanket, he closed his eyes.
After a while, Rowan turned and wrapped his arm around the girl's shoulder, leading her out.
The rain continued, the sky still intermittently flashing with thunder and lightning.
At night, within Queen Catherine's palace, the lights were still on.
The servants had been dismissed.
Jolie recounted the whole story to the queen. Catherine listened, her heart filled with apprehension, "You're lucky you didn't cause
any damage! Do you know how dangerous tonight was?"
"..." Jolie fell silent, finally understanding Mr. Marsh and their purpose in coming here: to identify the culprit, Eden.
