Chapter 1595: Just a Cover
As the servant bowed and left, Rowan said to ire, "Pleasee in and sit. There are some minor
techniques and experience involved in raising flowers after all." His tone was still cool and distant.
"I love gardenias. I couldn''t grow them well at first either, but with time and experience, I got the hang of
it. Different varieties have different survival rates."
The servant''s footsteps faded away.
ire looked at Rowan with a smile, her emotions alreadyplicated...
Rowan turned and strode into the pce, feeling the same whirlwind inside.
ire followed him in, gazing at his tall, straight back. Her heart ached for him.
Was there no one trustworthy by his side in this deep pce?

Rowan halted in the middle of the hall and knitted his brows, displeased, worried for her, also puzzled
how she had gotten in.
Most of all, he missed her and was trying to restrain himself...
ire stopped a meter behind him. She knew he was angry.
In a soft voice she exined, "Ivan came, he''s at the royal pce. I came in with him. I wouldn''t have
Rowan whipped around in shock and astonishment!
"He wanted me to understand your circumstances," ire continued.
Their eyes locked intensely. Rowan had no time to dy, so he told her directly, "I only grow flowers as
a cover. Two-thirds are ornamentals, one-third medicinal herbs. My father was poisoned with a slow-
acting toxin, it''s been going on for five years."
Since she came with Ivan, she must know of his identity already.
As he spoke, Rowan walked over to the table. ire didn''t know what he was doing and just followed a
few steps. She saw him pick up paper and pen.
He went on, "I have to stay and help him detox first. His organs have started failing. I still need to find
the culprit and root out the poison in this royal house. So I won''t be returning to Arkpool City for now.
You all take care of yourselves."
"How can we help you?" ire said softly. "I''ve been learning Arabictely. Does that skill allow me to
stay?"
She then told him about Queen Katharine asking the Marsh Group to build a castle park. How could
she think of castle parks when the King''s health was declining so badly? It made Rowan puzzled.
ire added, "Ivan''s team will remain here, and can assist you when needed. He himself wille by
often too."
Rowan nodded. With a few swift strokes he finished writing and folded the note to hand to ire.
"What''s this?" She did not look at it but slipped it directly into her pocket, lest anyone else see it.
"Give it to Jennifer," Rowan said.
"Alright!" She knew it must be something very important.
Just then, someone entered. The person came over and bowed respectfully, "Prince, the King wishes
to see you."
"Very well, I''ll go immediately." Rowan''s tranquil gaze settled on him.
The man nced between the two of them before retreating to the doorway to wait, indicating Rowan
and ire''s time was short.
"Is there a trantion department in the pce?" ire asked softly. She was determined to help him.
"I know Arabic."
"There used to be one, I''m not sure now." A sh of inspiration hit Rowan and he asked directly, "Are
you willing to stay by my father''s side?"
Huh?
ire was stunned. Rowan''s tone was light but his eyes resolute. "To help me find the culprit."
Stay by the King''s side?
Like staying beside a tiger... The ordinary girl ire couldn''t help but feel some trepidation, but still
nodded, "I''m willing."
In truth, she wanted to stay by his side more.
Rowan did not tell her his ns, as he still needed to arrange things. Only once it was smooth sailing
could he have her transferred over. Doing so directly would be too conspicuous.
"I have to go now," Rowan told her. "Find Ivan, and be sure to give the note to Jennifer."
