Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations

Chapter 1568: Jocelyn in Lorelei

"CEO Kingston..." Jerry Garcia spoke softly, coming to a conclusion. "She wants you as her backing.""That actually proves something: there’s turmoil within the royal family." Justin Kingston looked at him. "If we agree to build a park with Catherine, we’ll have a chance to help Ian Shelby."

Jerry was extremely shocked; he still hadn’t digested the fact that Dr. Shelby was a Prince of Lorelei.

Flourishing Lorelei, although it was a monarchy, everything here was very modern.

Towering skyscrapers, broad and spotless asphalt roads—it even looked more developed than Riventhal.

Only the royal palace was an independent and mysterious world; those complexes of buildings all had a history of hundreds of years.

Jocelyn Morgan walked the streets of Lorelei with a backpack on; the warm sunlight shone down on her, yet she couldn’t feel the slightest bit of warmth.

She lifted her eyes to the high-rises along the road; the phone in her hand was open on the navigation app.

It was said this country had many Cinderella-marries-the-Prince stories, so the bloodlines weren’t that pure; King Bertie’s queen was a beautiful woman from Astoria.

Even after arriving in Lorelei, when Jocelyn Morgan went into a newsstand and searched through the local papers for a long time, she still couldn’t find a single piece of news about the royal family.

"Miss, what are you looking for?" The newsstand owner was blond and blue-eyed, yet his Chinese was particularly fluent.

To hear a familiar language in a foreign land startled Jocelyn into snapping her head up. "..."

The owner smiled kindly, understanding her shock. "You’re from Astoria, right? Ninety percent of people here can speak Chinese, so the newspapers are split into Chinese and English editions."

"That’s great..." Jocelyn’s English actually wasn’t that good; she was only interested in niche languages, and things like English, French, Russian she wasn’t very good at.

"Um..." It was like she’d found a living search engine, so she asked directly, "Can I ask you something?"

"Go ahead."

"Why are there so many newspapers published every day, but not a single piece of news about the royal family?" She had already gone through them all, and there wasn’t even anything tangentially related.

This seemed to be no mystery at all. The owner smiled. "Because the law stipulates that members of the royal family can’t accept exclusive interviews. The royal dignity is there for all to see, and there are plainclothes guards disguised as civilians everywhere. No reporter dares to sneak photos. So, that saying circulating abroad is actually true."

"What saying?" Jocelyn couldn’t help being curious.

While tidying the newspapers, the owner joked, "We people of Lorelei don’t even know what our own Princes and Princesses look like, or how many Princes and Princesses there are. Because inside the royal palace there’s everything—schools, shopping malls. Catherine’s photos did leak out before, but that was from before she became a Princess."

Jocelyn let out a soft sigh. So mysterious?

"Alright, thank you." After bowing slightly in thanks, she turned and left, still full of disbelief.

She’d really gotten nothing.

But this King was truly a wise man.

Jocelyn walked alone along the main road. As a writer, she used her sharp powers of observation to think about and examine things.

This country really had no poor people; anyone she happened to meet was impeccably dressed and carried themselves with refinement.

There were still buses, but that was definitely for convenience; after all, they were dedicated routes, so there was no way they’d get stuck in traffic.

With just anyone being a rich person, one could well imagine how wealthy the royal family must be.

If the Princes and Princesses were out in public all the time, and with human nature being so complicated, the risk of kidnapping would skyrocket.

Sometimes, keeping a low profile was for the sake of safety.

Following the navigation, Jocelyn took one bus after another, and after twisting and turning for two hours, she finally arrived outside the royal palace.

She was stunned by this massive complex in the middle of the bustling city! This was definitely the brightest star among all the royal families in the world—magnificent and dazzling.
