Chapter 77 Christmas Night Talk
PS: Thanks to Xia Tian for his reward.
Christmas night
When the phone rang, Joseph was a little confused. It was an inside phone call. It would never be possible to call here without the guard's review. Could it be that James or the cabinet had something to do?
But the cabinet meeting had just ended, and it was estimated that the group of cabinet members were still in the shock of the atomic bomb. How could they call themselves at this time? Thinking of this, Joseph picked up the microphone.
“Merry Christmas, Joseph.”
"You are happy, Kate."
When a familiar voice came from the microphone, Joseph couldn't help but smile, and the guards didn't come to report. It was obvious that they were all guessing whether Kate would be Nord's princess in the future.
"This Christmas is so boring! I don't know who to go out for."
The rare Kate showed his little daughter's mentality. Joseph chuckled and thought about Kate's expression opposite the microphone at this time. Is he tangled or hesitant? Is he lying on the bed or lying on the desk?
"Candice! Are you and her good friends?"
Candice was the noble lady Joseph met at the auction house. Although the family was worse than Kate, it was not far from that of an Earl family in Edinburgh.
"I'll be Edinburgh on Christmas, and I won't look for her even in London. She has too many friends to go together."
The main reason is that Kate was too arrogant in the past. Her peers didn’t like her very much. Only a few people were willing to play with her. This is normal. After all, only Kate and a few of them inherited the titles among their peers.
"What are you doing now?" It can be seen that Kate is really bored, otherwise he would not have asked such a question. However, Joseph's answer made Kate speechless: "I just attended the cabinet meeting and discussed how to force the United States to compromise and concessions."
No one would take this sentence as the truth. Although Kate always believed that Britain is not worse than the United States, he actually knew very well that the strength of the United States was not dared to say this easily, and now the person who said this was a territory, with a small country with a population of less than one percent of the United States...
Kate didn't believe that Joseph had no choice. After playing for a while, both sides hung up the phone. Kate was still a little old! Otherwise, he would definitely be the best candidate for the princess.
Open the window and the palace is at the highest point of the entire Nord. Here you can completely overlook the entire Nord Principality. Because of Christmas, the Nord Principality is brightly lit and the streets are also shining with beautiful neon lights.
"Your Highness, do you want to prepare some food?"
Because of the cabinet meeting, Joseph had dinner early, and it was already past nine o'clock. Marceau estimated that Joseph was already a little hungry, so he asked Joanna to come over and ask.
"Joanna, your mother's business..."
"I'm fine, Your Highness."
Looking back, Joseph looked at Joanna's haggard face, Joseph felt that she had grown a lot, but the price of this growth was a bit high, at least Joseph couldn't bear to speak more.
On the eve of his trip to Japan, Joanna's mother was seriously ill. The medical treatment did not keep up because of the rebellion. Therefore, Joanna's mother left a few days after the rebellion. After all, Joanna was Joseph's personal maid, and the butler Abner arranged for someone to go there that day.
"Prepare more! You can sit down and eat together."
"Thank you, but I can't do that."
It was obvious that she had really grown up, and she began to understand the word "rules". Joseph did not forcefully wave his hand to signal her to prepare food.
Joanna's mother suffered from infectious diseases. According to the investigation by the Ministry of Health, the results should be diseases transmitted from Eastern Europe or Germany. For this reason, the Principality of Nord even issued a national medical examination.
After all, it's a midnight snack, and even with Joseph's identity, he can't eat anything good. It's very popular tonight, but Joseph is no longer in the mood to go for a trip.
At the same time, in the English Fox family, when Kate's uncle About learned about Kate and Joseph's affairs in London, he couldn't help but become impatient. The Fox family's main money-making projects are now in Audi agents, and now the relationship between Kate and Joseph...
"What should we do now? Kate will graduate in two years. We have no reason to stop her from participating in the family business."
About spoke to one of his far-fly cousins. About himself is very capable, but today it depends entirely on the help of this far-fly cousin. Even now, 80% of Fox's business is controlled by that far-fly cousin.
"There is no princess in the Principality of Nord."
The cousin from Far East did not directly answer About's words but said such a topic that seemed completely unrelated, but just one sentence made About understand what he wanted to express, but then About shook his head.
"Duke Nord is only nine years old this year, and the age difference between him and Kate is a bit big."
"It is because of their age gap that we have room for operation. Kate is not engaged yet!"
A word woke up the dreamer. The original meaning of the words was here. About looked at his cousin from afar in surprise. He did not expect the other party to use such a secret move.
"You mean we'll help Kate find a fiancé as soon as possible?"
"It's better to be honest and have no background." At this time, About's cousin from afar did not forget to add, and the poor Kate was calculated by them like goods.
"I'm worried Kate won't agree."
"As long as Joseph doesn't get involved, everything will be fine. If he really wants to take care of this matter, then we can give in and sell a favor to Joseph."
Wealth is good but favors are hard to repay. Even though Joseph knew that all this was About's plan, he still had to pinch his nose and accept it at that time.
"Then let's do this as soon as possible, and also invite me to the Earl of Liverpool and Duke of Hollis. They seem to have a very close relationship with the Grand Duke of Nord Joseph."
"Where is Prime Minister James..."
After all, the Focus family is one of the important agents of Audi, so About has met James several times and has some friendships. About's far-far cousin believes that all his connections should be used for such a thing.
"The situation in the Principality of Nord is a bit complicated. Prime Minister James does not have much say in Joseph, especially in things like this."
"But what if we help you find a suitable princess with your Excellency Joseph? A princess with equal age, identity, and status."
The words of my cousin from afar made About's eyes lit up. Indeed, James and his group of old Nord ministers would not have tried their best to ask Joseph to agree to this in-laws?
Although he may lose the opportunity to marry Nord royal family, it may not be a good thing for Abbott himself. After all, the first thing Kate did in power would not be thankful to his uncle for his years of care.
"You can do this, contact Mr. Nord like James."
About's cousin nodded and signaled that he knew what to do. He was actually the one he cared about the most. After all, he was not from the Fox family. He would definitely get out of Kate as a throne.
