    Chapter 1674 Let''s Speak Frankly


    On the way here, she had mentally prepared herself.


    Jolie brought ire to the Queen''s pce. It was different from the other royal pces, with a modern


    ir, almost trendsetting.


    The pce was enormous. ire followed Jolie through a maze of twists and turns for five minutes


    before finally arriving at a spacious tea room.


    As soon as ire entered, she saw a figure standing by the window.


    "Your Majesty, I''ve brought Miss ire," Jolie bowed and exited, closing the door behind her.


    ire''s gaze never left that figure as she tried to guess her thoughts.


    So she''s not going to turn around?


    "Your Majesty," ire slightly nodded her head, speaking gently with proper etiquette. "It''s a pleasure


    to meet you."


    Catherine turned with a stony expression, scrutinizing her from head to toe, from her face to her figure.


    ire was very calm, even tranquil as she met her gaze, trying to discern her inner thoughts from her


    expressions.


    Recalling Jolie''s words, with ire now before her, Catherine was furious as a woman. If not for her


    being Ivan''s sister, she would have pped her already!


    But she knew she had to restrain herself.


    So Catherine''s lips curved up. "Have a seat, I''ve brewed some tea. Let''s chat while we drink." She still


    wanted to advise her.


    "Your Majesty," ire remained standing, watching as Catherine sat down. She sincerely exined in


    a soft voice, "I have a boyfriend in Arkpool City, so I cannot ept Prince Taylor''s affection."


    "Oh?" The Queen had just picked up the teapot but nced up at her remark before withdrawing her


    gaze to pour tea. "If you''re so principled, why ept the King''s affection then?"


    "What?" At first ire thought she had misheard, not understanding her meaning.


    Because she had misunderstood in a way ire hadn''t considered at all.


    Catherine set down the teapot. Sitting straight, she didn''t ask ire to sit either, just lifted her eyes to


    the girl standing not far away.


    But this time, her gloomy dark eyes held scrutiny. "There''s no need to pretend you don''t understand.


    Although I called you here, let''s speak frankly."


    Clearly the Queen was unhappy, even suppressing anger.


    ire had often written such expressions and mannerisms in her novels - barely containing rage, yet


    enduring and considerate, with a chilled gaze.


    "ire, I know you''re Mr. Marsh''s sister, but trying to steal my husband here is wrong of you,"


    Catherine''s eyes narrowed as she calmly sipped her tea. "Although the King is ill and aged, he''s not


    muddle-headed."


    Now ire finally understood the misunderstanding... she was speechless!


    In her heart ire ridiculed Catherine''s characterization - not low EQ, but low IQ.


    "Your Majesty, just because Prince Taylor was clinging to me and the King called him out for neglecting

    his duties and chased him away, you think I''m having an affair with the King? Is that what you mean?"


    Catherine''s eyes answered her.


    ire really wanted tough, but she had to respect the Queen''s status. So she exined earnestly


    and sincerely, "This is a misunderstanding. I''m not that kind of person, neither is the King."


    Seeing her emphasize so seriously, she didn''t seem to be lying.


    Catherine examined her for a bit. "Regardless of whether it''s true, it''s a fact you dined with the King.


    That''s already improper. I hope you''ll cease such behavior!"


    The Queen''s anger didn''t benefit anyone, and ire had already obtained the food samples.


    So ire readily agreed, "Alright."


    Catherine was actually surprised by her sudden cooperativeness.
