Chapter 1469 Paying Tribute
He chuckled softly. Could he admit that he was quite pleased to see those marks on her?
"Well, you can show them to your sister when you see herter," he suggested, leaving Olivia
speechless. What a shameless man!
Although Eugene and Olivia were not particrly fond of attending social gatherings, they both dressed
up for the evening event.
Alice intentionally wanted to introduce them to her subjects to present Olivia as the Crown Princess of
Eurosia and highlight Eugene''s distinguished title as the prince consort, which carried weight wherever
he went.

Perhaps initially, people had some reservations about Olivia and Eugene, but once they learned of their
identities, there was a significant change in attitude. They no longer looked like outsiders or thieves;
instead, they exuded an air of sophistication, and everyone felt that they were a well-matched couple.
The banquet was grand andsted for two hours before concluding.
A few dayster, Olivia apanied Alice to pay tribute to Queen nchett.
While Olivia''s mother had indeed lost her at one point, causing her considerable hardship, Olivia
understood her mother''s actions. When she particrly heard that her mother had ssified the
ne around her neck as a hereditary item in her desperate search for her, Olivia realized the depth
of her mother''s concern.
If it weren''t for the dire circumstances, her mother would never have left her behind. Olivia felt
fortunate.
After aplex ceremony, Alice left with her Cab Consuls, knowing that Olivia had much to say
and wanting to give her sister and her mother some alone time.
Once they were alone, Olivia gazed at the gentle image of Queen nchett for a while, silent.
In truth, she had a lot to say, but when the time came to speak, she didn''t know where to start.
Eugene noticed her hesitation and took the initiative. "I''ll be nearby if you need me," he said before
moving a little farther away, still within visible range but out of earshot.
Olivia didn''t intend for Eugene to leave, but his distance did make her feel morefortable.
She looked at the portrait of Queen nchett and smiled. "Can I call you ''Mom?'' That''s how we
address mothers in our country. It feels warm and familiar. The man who just left is my husband, and
we have four sons. Well, there''s one more on the way…"
She pursed her lips and softly called out, "Mom, I''m very happy. He treats me well, and my four sons
are all smart and lovely. I''ll bring them over the next time Ie back. You don''t need to worry about
me. Though I couldn''t be by your side, I didn''tck maternal love. My foster parents also treated me
well, and I felt the warmth of a family. I know you went to great lengths to find me and missed me
dearly. But now I''m back. Can you see me, Mom?
"I''ve seen interviews with you on the news before. You have a sharp gaze and amanding
presence. I used to think, ''Wow, this queen is amazing,'' but I never imagined that you were my mother.
They all praised you, do you know that? Saying that you are decisive and the most beautiful queen in
the world. I''m so happy…"
Despite her words, tears welled up in her eyes. "It''s also a pity that I couldn''t see you for thest time.
Mom, can you see me? Do you think I look like you?
"As for inheriting the throne, let Alice handle it. I don''t like dealing with such matters, and it''s too
troublesome. She''s quite capable now; I''ve already seen her potential. She''ll do even better in the
future, and I''ll support her. You can rest assured.
"I''ve been here for quite a while now, and ke is still unwell. Although I haven''t received any rming
news about his condition, I can''t help but worry. I''ll be heading back tomorrow, but I''ll return when I
have the opportunity to see you again!"
With that, she knelt devoutly to Queen nchett.
At this moment, Eugene walked over and knelt alongside Olivia, saying, "Mom, please rest assured. I
will take good care of Olivia, I mean, Avril. I''ll look after her, and I won''t mistreat her. Next time, we''ll
bring your little grandchildren to visit you."
