Chapter 825
Neil had never thought he would see Victoria standing outside. He took a step forward subconsciously
to shield Aurelia.
“Why? Aren’t you introducing us to each other?” Victoria smiled, but her gaze toward Aurelia was
piercing.
This was her first time meeting Aurelia face to face. She was rather surprised.
Previously, the people she sent to follow Aurelia reported to her what the girl looked like. Now that she
saw her today, the girl’s beauty surprised her.
It was no wonder Neil kepting for her all day long.
Victoria bit her lips and forced a smile.
“Since you’re not saying anything, I’ll introduce myself!” She extended a hand. “I’m Victoria Charles. I’m
also—”
“Also, the royal princess,” Neil said in a low tone.
His gaze was alert, and his brows were furrowed. Various thoughts shed in his mind…
Aurelia looked at her dumbly as she stood rooted in a loss.
“Your Highness.” Neil nodded politely. “We didn’t know you’d be here. It’s rude of us! You… aren’t here
for clothes, are you?”
“Of course not.” Victoria fanned the fan in her hand as she scanned the shop and looked at Neil. “Since
we’ve met, can I have a word with you, Mr. Harris?”
“Well…”
“ording to the royal family’s rules, the princess cannot ask to meet the opposite ***.” She chuckled.
“But running into each other on the street and then chatting isn’t breaking the rules.”
Neil hesitated and nodded. He looked at Aurelia. “Stay in the shop. I’ll be back soon.”
Victoria led the way in front while Neil followed her.
They both came to a quieter street, and Victoria kept the umbre, looking at the man in front of her
quietly.
He had a sculpted face and dashing charm, but the most captivating was his charismatic eyes.
She remembered their first meeting. It was when they went to university, and it was love at first sight for
her. Later, she indirectly brought it up to her uncle, and the king intended to pull the Harrises to their
side, so he had probed the general.
It was a pity that General Harris had not made a clear stance.
Everyone could see Victoria’s feelings for Neil but also Neil’s rejection of her. Why else would he go all
the way to Centrolis to be an actor?
Victoria took a deep breath. She could not stand this. She wanted this man and would have him—she
would make this mane to beg her too!
“Your Highness, please speak your mind.” Neil looked aloof.
“Mm, I know you don’t like beating around the bush.” Victoria looked at him and asked softly, “The girl I
saw at the tailor’s just now, she’s Aurelia, right?”
Neil jolted. He tensed up like a leopard in danger as he kept his eyes on her.
“Your Highness, you—”
” Alexander helped with her temporary residence permit.” Victoria smiled. “Do you think I wouldn’t know
about her?
“Honestly, I was puzzled when Alexander helped her stay in Southeast Aciatic. This brother of mine
has never bothered with anyone’s matter. Why is he suddenly doing so much for a girl? Hah, I thought
she’d be my future sister-inw!”
Neil chuckled. He had grown up with Alexander and was well aware of what kind of person thetter
was. A provocation like this would not affect him.
“Your Highness, I’m grateful for what Prince Alexander has done. We haven’t met recently. I’ll thank
him myself when I see him.”
“My brother can only get her a temporary residence permit.” Victoria looked at him. “On the other hand,
I can get her an official citizenship status. What do you think?”
“What did you say?” Neil could not believe his ears.
He had never interacted much with Victoria. He did not agree to the marriage with her because his
father Noah had not agreed out of various considerations, and he did not think he was the same type of
person as Victoria.
He did not expect her to help him when his rejection was so clear. It did not seem logical—and there
were most likely traps when things did not seem normal.

Neil nned to listen to what she had to say before he responded.
“What’s gotten into you?” Victoria smiled. “So happy that you can’t speak? Who’s Aurelia to you?”
Neil answered with a straight face, “We met in Chaisnd. Aurelia’s saved my friend’s life and helped
Cordelia big time. But she doesn’t have any immigration status there. I hope to resolve this for her out
of gratitude, so I brought her here.”

It sounded virtuous and impable, but did he really think she had no idea what he was truly thinking?
Her arm shook slightly as she gripped the handle of the umbre tightly.
“I see. She’s friends with you all! Ah, I must help then!”
“Your Highness…”
“I heard from Alexander that she’s self-motivated and skilled with her hands. She’s also a doll when I
saw her just now. I quite like her!
“I heard that she’s enrolling at a university?” There was a sly glint in Victoria’s gaze. “Neil, Southeast
Aciatic University’s famous in the world for its strict schrly admission and high volume of research
publications. Countless candidates want to be admitted… The university’s also incredibly strict with
foreign students, and their admission score is much higher than for the local students!
“If Aurelia has citizenship, she’ll enjoy the treatment of a local student, and her admission score will be
the same as the locals! She won’t have to work so hard either… Don’t you think so?”
Neil narrowed his eyes. The more he listened to her, the more off it sounded. It was just that Victoria’s
offer was truly tempting.
Aurelia’s citizenship was a rock weighing his heart down. Now that there was someone to move it, he
was happy. He just did not expect the person to be Victoria…
“Neil, I don’t mind youughing at me.” Victoria continued. “But I saw the clothes Aurelia made for
Cordelia. It was gorgeous! I wanted her toe to the pce then. A talented person like her shouldn’t
go wasted!
“Hah, but my brother was nosy that day, iming she’s already engaged…”
Victoria purposely slowed down her speech to observe Neil’s expression.
As expected, the man’s gaze darkened, and his hands balled into fists.
Victoria smirked and continued. “Engaged women can’t enter the pce. It’s a pity! Neil, do you know
who her fiance is?
“I heard that the tailor shop’s owner has sons… Aurelia wouldn’t have found support so soon after
she’s here, would she?”
