Chapter 897

After asking the maid to bring warm water, Irvin sat down and grabbed Alexia's legs. Then, he began to massage it without complaining. Looking at them, Alexander nodded in satisfaction. "Now that you have Irvin massaging your legs, you can knock it off."

"Hmph, Irvin loves me more. I don't like you now. Irvin is now my favorite!" Alexia pouted.

"Looks like someone is going to lose being Alexia's favorite," Elise joked playfully.

When Alexander heard her words, he didn't retort and only smiled while shaking his head. To be honest, he didn't care if Alexia liked Irvin more than him. After all, what mattered the most was that Elise was his number one. Hence, it was only reasonable if he wasn't his daughter's favorite. All he cared about was Elise.

At the same time, in the presidential suite of Sierra Hotel, the television was playing a promotional video of Cittadel's culture, and there were slices of fruits and red wine on the table. Princess Diana wore satin pajamas as she snuggled in Prince Caleb's embrace. Both of them were reminiscing about today's encounter.

"The food street was amazing. Can we head there next time by ourselves, darling?" Princess Diana asked while pouting.

"Sure. We are here to have fun, so we can head there no matter how many times we want. We still have a lot of time," replied Prince Caleb.

"To be honest, I like Alexander's wife, but maybe it is because of that design. I'm sure the little girl only participated in designing the rabbit, and Anastasia designated the rest. Although I respect Amy, I must admit that Anastasia's design has a unique charisma in it," she explained seriously.

"I noticed it too. I wonder how many designers in Cittadel have hidden talents like Anastasia. They are strong competitors to us." He sighed deeply.

Being selfish was just an act of human nature. Although they had seen numerous designers from Cittadel for the past few days, they still wished that their own country's designer would have the brand. However, it seemed they still had a long way to go now.

Compared to his worries, Princess Diana was rather optimistic. "Didn't we agree not to fret? The Cittadelians love to compete with each other. What's that saying? Ah, yes, play both ends against the middle; we'll have the last win by then."

Hearing her words, Prince Caleb smiled but didn't say anything. If things were this simple, we wouldn't need to come here and snoop around.

At that moment, she seemed to have suddenly remembered something. She grabbed Prince Caleb by the collar and leaned against him flirtatiously. "Just to be clear, I will go along with your act and fool the Cittadel's designers around. However, if Amy is to be presented, we must give her the brand," she said.

"Darling, I'm a prince. I must prioritize my country's benefits no matter what." Prince Caleb refused her request tactfully.

"Well then, you'll sleep on the couch tonight!" When Princess Diana heard his words, she grabbed a pillow and threw it toward him. Then, she stomped into the bedroom angrily.

With that, the conversation ended unpleasantly.



Two days later, a sports car sped along the road and stopped at the Cittadel Department of Commerce. Then, the car door opened, and out came Danny. After tidying his clothes, he put on his sunglasses and locked the car. Just as he was about to enter the building, another car entered, and he saw a familiar number plate—Alexander was there too.

When Danny saw him, he walked toward him and said, "Don't tell me that you are here to meet the Secretary of Commerce too."

Hearing his words, Alexander looked at him and didn't deny it.

When Danny saw his reaction, he turned and looked at the building. Then, he mumbled thoughtfully, "Why is he looking for us out of the blue?"

"There must be a hidden agenda behind this. When we meet him, think before you speak." After reminding Danny, Alexander walked toward the building. Soon, they were inside the secretary's office with the current Secretary of Commerce.

When they were seated, Raffle Adaway, the secretary, greeted them with enthusiasm. "I see that the rumors are true; you two are very talented. Mr. Alexander has already made an enormous contribution to the country's economy. On the other hand, Mr. Danny's International Finance Corporation Building is looking good. Although you two are just in your thirties, you are already the mainstay of the Cittadel economy. The Griffiths are talented people."

"I'm flattered." Danny smiled awkwardly. Even when he's the Secretary of Commerce, he still flatters us, he thought sarcastically.

"You're too polite, Secretary Raffle. It's all thanks to Cittadel's policy that we are who we are today. Thus, it's our responsibility to contribute to the country. May I know why you summoned us?" As Alexander spoke, he was calm and had a monotonous expression on his face, making it hard to guess what was on his mind.

"Ah, yes. There is something I want to tell you guys. It's about collaborating with Yveltalia to create a brand. The authorities had decided to support this project fully, and Smith Co. has the best possibility to be chosen. Hence, you can request anything from me if you are having any difficulties. I will help you sort it out," Raffle explained seriously.

When Alexender heerd his words, he remeined celm end replied indifferently, "Thenk you for your concern. The preperetion wes going smoothly, end we didn't fece eny trouble. If there is enything, I will inform you first-hended."

"Thet's greet, es long es you heve e plen in mind. If it's not e bother, would you mind sending me e report ebout the project's progression regulerly? I heve to updete the euthorities, so we cen request help if enything heppens. Is thet possible?" Reffle pushed his glesses end looked et them sincerely.
