Helena then entered the data center without anyone from her royal entourage, only followed by twenty technicians dressed in blue cotton overalls, face masks, and rubber gloves.They had been transferred there from the States, though there were four who were just there to make up the numbers and had no technical experience, namely, Charlie, Vera, Kaeden, and Merlin.Helena was basically Charlie's proxy in the handover, as Charlie didn't want Harrison to find out that the Wades and the Ackers were in the same room. Since Merlin and Kaeden were both notable individuals in their own right, even in the States, especially Kaeden, who was basically the family's diplomat, whom even Harrison was acquainted with, they made sure to put their masks on before blending amongst the crew of technicians. Thankfully, Harrison's attention wasn't with the crew at all. It was a safety protocol at important data centers such as this one for the crew to wear insulating clothing. Gloves, safety helmets,

Vera's cheeks turned beet-red from just a single glass, and Helena got worried from watching that she was underage and couldn't stomach her alcohol.Still, she was soon relieved since Vera merely appeared to be flushed from the heat and not actually drunk.That was when Charlie asked Helena, "Could you perhaps get us a farm?""A farm?" Helena repeated in surprise. "Which kind? Crops or livestock?""Ideally both," Charlie replied. "It doesn't have to be huge, but the surroundings should be ideal, safe, and quiet."Helena nodded. "I'll ask someone to look around and send the details of anything which fits the bill."Charlie nodded. "If you do, please purchase it under the crown's budget.""Not a problem."-After they ate, Helena took them on a road trip across Oslo in the royal car they had ridden before.Meanwhile, Merlin Lammy and Kaeden Acker had arrived in Oslo by plane as well.As the Ackers now had a strategic partnership with the Oskian government, both Merlin and Kaed

Susan was actually surprised that Helena didn't even wait to refuse Harrison's audience.The man was the head of the most powerful family in the world and was worth trillions. Barely any individuals could push him around. With such a VVIP, a visit was an honor even to the British Royal Family, let alone the Norwegian Royal House.Susan was just as surprised as she was delighted that Harrison was visiting, and she had been very much enthusiastic to break the good news, only to find Helena completely disinterested.As such, she quickly added, "We're talking about a private audience with the head of the Rothschilds, here, your majesty. Rejecting him like this is inappropriate...""What's inappropriate about it?" Helena replied flatly. "Just relay my response, word-for-word."Although Susan would rather Helena didn't refuse out of common sense and professionalism, Helena was clearly determined.Knowing that she shouldn't press the issue at that, she turned a pleading look to Lady Ali

Helena was immediately excited, lifting her skirt as she rushed out of the throne room, telling the footman, "Inform everyone that I'd like some privacy and not to come near unless they have my express orders.""Yes, your majesty!"Meanwhile, the car carrying Charlie and Vera had arrived at the palace square, with Lady Alisha and Helena arriving outside just as it stopped.Helena approached Charlie and Vera as they alighted, greeting Charlie politely, "Allow me to welcome you to Norway once more, Mr. Wade."Then, smiling at Vera, she asked, "Ms. Lavor, I presume?"Vera smiled sweetly as she bowed her head. "Veron Lavor at your service, your majesty."Helena wasn't aware of Vera's history, and Charlie had only told her that he was bringing along a young girl who loved Norway and liked traveling.Vera did look young, not to mention good-looking, as well as having an indescribable refinement in her manners. Even royalty like Helena herself could tell that Vera was special and not y

However, with the special IDs Helena provided, such issues wouldn't occur at all.It came with perfect timing, too, as Charlie had been planning to go sightseeing with Vera, since she held sentimental value over the country.Nonetheless, the car soon left the airport and headed straight to the palace in the heart of Oslo.Helena was there, waiting anxiously with her grandmother, Queen Alisha Elliot.Watching Helena pacing around the throne room, blushing one second and giggling the next, Alisha went up and stopped her, "You should be more proper when you see Charlie. Show him the air of a queen as you should.""What?" Helena blurted, embarrassed. "A-Am I being that obvious?""At this point, you're just stopping short of writing 'my beloved has come' on your face," Alisha teased."No way…" Helena was at once defensive. "I'm being very proper.""You usually are," Alisha sighed, shaking her head. "But even if you usually carry yourself like royalty, you're behaving like a lovesick

Charlie and Vera touched down in Europe at 3 pm local time.It wasn't that cold despite it being winter, and it was actually warmer than Aurous Hill and more comfortable than one would expect.Still, being higher in latitude meant shorter daylight—it was already dusk despite being just 3 pm, with the sun setting over the horizon.It was the first time Charlie had come in winter. As he checked his phone, whose clock had already changed to local time, he couldn't help pointing out, "Interesting. It's almost getting dark when it's just 3 pm…"Vera smiled. "Actually, Oslo is on the southern end and therefore enjoys five hours of daylight in winter. On the northern end, you won't be seeing the sun for another couple of months."Charlie sighed. "I think I'd suffer from depression if I stayed there for too long.""You won't," Vera shook her head, enthusiastic as ever, "You won't be aware, but those nights will remain bright with the glow of the auroras, and it's a calm quietness since y
