105 Politics and Love

Claire's POV

"Your Highness." Accompanied by knocks, Alfred's steady voice came from outside the door. "Evans wishes to see you."

"Hmm." Just mentioning that name, Louis's temperature seemed to drop a few degrees.

"I knew he'd come sooner or later. Tell him to wait for me in my study."

"Understood, Your Highness."

"Can I go with you?" I leaned against Louis, tilting my head up, carefully requesting. "I want to know what Evans is up to, please."

My pleading gaze eventually swayed Louis. After a moment of contemplation, he nodded to me.

"Alright, but I need you to hide in the corner of the study, don't make a sound. Can you do that?"

"Of course." I smiled, wrapping my arms around Louis's neck, planting a kiss on his lips. "I promise to be a perfect invisible person."

Louis's POV

"Your Highness."

Hearing my approaching footsteps, Evans turned around in the study, bowing to me.
