Chapter 121

"The Andleen Crown!" the crown prince exclaimed in a low voice.

The commoners present didn't understand what his words meant, but the nobles recognized the significance of his words, understanding the meaning deeply. When they saw what was in Li Yuewen's hand, all of the nobles expressions changed greatly. The dazzling golden crown was inlaid with multiple types of precious jewels, exceptionally exquisite. Under the sun, it glistened.  

The Andleen Crown was the favorite crown of the founding emperor of Lagark. The crown was created by the country's top ten or so craftsmen, and made out of the most valuable jewels in the empire, one of a kind because after the craftsmen finished the crown, the emperor executed them. The later generations pitied the craftsmen. As the country later fell into war, the crown was lost in the chaos, never to be seen again, but today, they saw it here! All of the nobles present, including Hua Xiuning, recognized that the crown was definitely the Andleen Crown! Because there was no ways of recreating it! Within the royal treasury, the portraits of the founding emperor all had him wearing this crown! How did the Andleen crown suddenly appear here?     

"We acquired it by chance." Claire smiled faintly. "We will be taking our leave now."

"Your highness, we are taking our leave." Li Yuewen supported Claire as they turned and walked gracefully away, only leaving behind a faint, sweet scent in the air.

The crown prince nodded, his expression complex.

The nobles craned their necks, watching Claire's figure disappear dreamily. But the crown prince's gaze lingered on the crown, countless thoughts flashing through his mind.

Who was the mysterious beauty? Why would they have the Andleen crown? From her tone of voice, the valuable crown was only a trifling thing in her eyes. And her purpose was very clear. The items donated were to be auctioned as funds to start the clinic, but this was originally from the royal family. Naturally, nobody would dare to bid for it. The royal family could buy it even if they used a low amount of money. The mysterious beauty would give away such a huge favor just like that? Just how powerful was her background?  

And like so, Claire, Li Yuewen, and Camille left.

Everybody was deeply stunned, unable to come back to their senses. The mysterious beauty had arrived brilliantly, like fire works, but after stunning everyone, disappeared immediately.

Hua Xiuning's face paled, then darkened, then greened. She clenched her fists tightly until her knuckles were white, nails piercing into her flesh.

The day was an important page of history.

Even after a long, long time, people would still remember this day, when a lady as beautiful and holy as a goddess appeared in the capital square. Her grace was matchless and her unparalleled complexion was dazzling, charming everyone. Her mysterious and luxurious dress added a deeper impression.

Inside the carriage, Claire stretched, cracking her neck, then leaned back, giving a cold humph. "Hua Xiuning, you dared to insult my mother? I will make you pay."

"But today really was awesome." Li Yuewen smirked. "Every time I think back to how angry she looks, I just want to laugh."

"You should think of our next step. Also, has the matter of the clothing store been settled yet?" Claire said quietly.

"Oh... the incoming tides of waves... " Li Yuewen face palmed, a bit dismayed, then changed her tone suddenly. "Oh wait, Claire, I never expected that you were so talented at designing clothes. When the clothing store opens, business will be booming, haha."
