Surprised Wife With Twins

Chapter 1594: Meeting In The Palace

Chapter 1594: Meeting in the Palace

That year marked the end of Lu Layuoka's human trafficking ring.

Because she could never find her younger sister, their mother grew despondent and eventually passed

away from melancholy.

That same year was also when Rowan resolved to become a doctor! However, his father was

vehemently opposed to the idea, leading to a rift in their relationship and sending it into a frigid winter.

With his sister's disappearance on top of that, Rowan was wracked with guilt. He did not want to

selfishly enjoy the prosperity and nobility of royal life when his sister was missing. He felt he did not

deserve it.

His sister and mother's absence also left him feeling stifled. He wanted to go out and search for his

sister.

So Rowan left a letter and departed from the royal family, swearing not to return until he found his

sister.

In the blink of an eye, twenty years went by...

He had been through so much, from hope to despair, but there was still no trace of his sister.

At least he had completed his medical studies, which was some small comfort.

But now his father had been poisoned by a slow-acting toxin for five years, which made Rowan

incredibly distressed. Was fate playing a cruel joke on him?

By this time, Claire had arrived at the palace gates. She could only guess that Prince Louis was

Rowan, but had no way to be completely certain.

She saw a servant standing by the gates and cautiously walked over. The servant stopped her, "Miss,

have you come to the wrong place?"

Claire had no choice but to stop. She peeked inside but did not see anyone. Still, she had to confirm if

this Prince Louis was Rowan or not.

Putting on a friendly smile, she very politely said to the servant, "Hello, I'm here to see Prince Louis."

In a side hall inside the palace, Rowan vaguely heard Claire's familiar voice, like a dream.

He quickly glanced towards the gates, then put down the photos and cords in his hands and closed the

drawer. He strode out towards the gates.

At the gates, the servant turned around upon hearing footsteps. "Prince, this young lady wants to see

you and I stopped her. Who is she to you? Do you know each other? Maybe she should call you first?"

"..." Of course she had no way to call him.

Claire was blocked, and anxiously peeked inside. Just as she was at a loss for what to do and the

servant was about to chase her away, she suddenly saw Rowan emerge!

The familiar sight of him walking towards the gates filled Claire with complex emotions...

Rowan's heart was also in turmoil as he strode over.

Their eyes met. Claire held her breath, the joy and peace in her heart indescribable.

It really was him!

Prince Louis really was him!

"What's going on?" Rowan's gaze fell on the servant, and he also saw Claire. He walked towards the

gates, his expression cold and calm.

The servant turned around upon hearing him and said, "Prince, this young lady wants to see you but I

stopped her."

Mindful of what she had seen on his Facebook, Claire clearly understood their circumstances.

So she replied with a smile, "Prince, I saw a lot of gardenias being delivered here." She looked around

the yard as she spoke.

Rowan stopped in front of her, his tranquil gaze settling on her face.

The dark circles under her eyes were so heavy, had she not been sleeping well?

Claire brought her gaze back to meet his. She continued, "I really like raising those plants too, but I can

never get them to thrive. So I came to get some tips on caring for them."

Their eyes locked. With the servant present, both maintained a calm exterior, like veteran actors.

This was the first time they had seen each other since parting ways, and they tacitly pretended to be

strangers.

The servant did not notice anything amiss either.

Rowan did not immediately answer Claire's question. Instead, he addressed the servant, "Please go

purchase ten more potted gardenias. I want to give them to this young lady."

He then said to Claire, "There's no special trick to raising flowers, just differences between varieties.

Yours must be a difficult breed."

The servant was slightly surprised but answered, "Of course, it will take some time though. The nearbynovelbin

florists are all sold out, so I'll have to go further away."

"Very well, go on then," Rowan nodded.
