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

When the A350 arrived at Aurous Hill, Isaac Cameron arranged for system checks to make sure there were no safety hazards or bugs. It was only after it was cleared that they applied for a flight route while arranging for a flight crew of their own to be doubly sure.With the arrangements complete, Charlie and Vera both cleared the checkpoint and boarded the flight from the freight entrance.The A350 was the biggest Airbus there is, while this one had been refurbished so that two-thirds of the fuselage space was repurposed into multiple bedrooms, a conference room, and a parlor, so it was more than enough for just two passengers.Charlie and Vera both headed to the parlor after boarding, taking their seats while the A350 took off toward Europe.Vera was thrilled by the prospect of returning to Europe. As she was alone in the soundproofed parlor with Charlie, Charlie asked, "You're looking forward to this trip?""Yes!" Vera could hardly contain her excitement. "I won't lie—it's my

Charlie naturally knew what Jacob was scheming—there was no way his father-in-law would have been content with just returning to the Calligraphy and Painting Association.If anything, he would definitely want to claw his way back up and become the administrative vice-president once more—or the president, if he could.However, Charlie wasn't going to let him have it easy, and his father-in-law wouldn't become president as long as Albert didn't clear a path for his promotion. In fact, he would be having a hard time reclaiming his previous position as administrative vice-president.After all, that scandal with Zachary Evans still loomed over him, and there were a handful of other vice-presidents in his way—there was no way he could clear them out of his way with that blemish in his history.Right now, what Charlie wanted was for Jacob's path to promotion to be laden with thorns, all so that he would learn to stay put for a long while.-It was morning two days later when Albert visi
