Chapter 487 Jealousy

Upon Catherine heard Paxton’s explanation, her eyes sparkled with curiosity.

“Well, this story is unexpectedly intriguing. It’s more captivating than some period dramas penned by those boring playwrights.”

Paxton was surprised that Catherine had the inclination to jest about such matters. Currently confined within the palace, every time they mentioned leaving, the king presented various reasons to convince them to stay.

If sweet words didn’t work, he’d resort to spending exorbitant sums.

In their eyes, Catherine had now become the lifeline for the entire royal family. After learning about the queen’s curse, Catherine’s interest was piqued by another matter.

She raised an eyebrow at Paxton, who instantly felt a chill running down his spine. The voice that spoke again was almost trembling.

“Miss Swann, feel free to ask if you have any concerns!”

As long as he didn’t have to endure that terrifying look, he was ready to do anything for her!

Catherine raised an eyebrow, her tone calm and unhurried. “Don’t be alarmed, it’s nothing serious. Since you seem to excel at gossip, let’s just chat for a bit!”

Paxton felt a rush of despair in his heart. Just chatting for a bit? That attitude alone was enough to suffocate him.

Could she please not chat with him?

Catherine rested her arm on the armrest, absentmindedly tapping it as she asked, “Who is Prince Harry?”

“Pardon me, Miss Swann, but may I ask why you’re inquiring about him?” Paxton looked at Catherine with a touch of suspicion.

Catherine gave him a sidelong glance, nearly causing Paxton to kneel in fear.

He immediately realized his mistake.

He hastily apologized, “Miss Swann, I was wrong.”
