"Master, there are guests coming to see you..."
As soon as Claire came together, he heard these words from Regan who had been waiting at the door.
"Guest?" Claire is still a little confused. Irene has just left. It stands to reason that most of the people Regan he knows know, so who else can come to him?
"She is a... very beautiful lady." Regan's tone obviously paused for a moment when describing her appearance, not knowing how to describe it.
Seeing Regan's reaction, Claire seemed to know who the person was and asked, "Is her name Sophia?"
Regan shook his head, "I don't know, that lady didn't tell me her name."
Regan felt a little embarrassed. The first time he drank from the other party, he was suppressed by the other party's momentum. He couldn't ask any questions at all. The other party was the one leading the conversation.
"Is your figure in good shape?" Claire asked again.
"There is such a thing." Regan nodded, not embarrassed to admit it directly, but that figure was indeed something he had never seen before.
"Then it should be Sophia... but what is she doing here?" Claire said to himself.
"Where is she now?" Claire asked, adjusting his clothes a little. He had just woken up and his clothes were a little untidy.
Moreover, Claire is looking for something to do with Sophia. He doesn't have the treasure to replenish his vitality, but there will definitely be some news about Sophia at this level. This was one of the reasons why he dared to promise Hong Qi that if he inquired through Sophia's information channels, he should be able to find what he wanted quickly.
"After I told her to go back to sleep, the lady walked out and said she wanted to see Nafu City..."
Claire pursed her lips and said, "If you send someone to find her now, just say that I'm up and I'll go wash up first."
"Yes!" Regan ordered, but still asked with some confusion, "Well... Young Master, who is this lady?"
He rarely saw Claire being so formal when meeting a guest.
Claire slapped his mouth and replied, "This is Countess Sophia, the top noble in the palace... We can't afford to offend him anyway."
Regan was surprised and thought to himself: No wonder I was suppressed by the other party as soon as I met him. It seems reasonable now.
About half an hour later, Claire waited in the living room for Sophia, who had arrived late.
Sophia was not the least bit polite like Claire. After entering the room, he put his legs up on the table and lay lazily on the sofa. He looked more like the owner of the room than Claire.
"I'm sorry, Lord Viscount, your city is so beautiful. I took a look around a little longer." As he said this, Sophia put a lot of things in his hands on the table.
"Did you buy it?" Claire asked looking at those things.
Sophia shook his head, "No, those men complimented me on my good looks and gave it to me." As he said that, he picked up a pack of shredded squid and showed it in front of Claire, shaking it, "This is the same type of shredded squid as Princess Irene."
Claire felt that the other party was picking on him, saying that he was using Irene to promote his products.
However, Claire was also very thick-skinned, so he directly ignored the other party's suggestion and asked, "Then Madam, are you happy shopping?"
"Not bad." Sophia nodded, "Although it is not as good as some big cities, it has all the supporting facilities, and the scenery here is also very good. If I travel in the future, this will be one of my vacation choices."
Sophia didn't mention the mermaid. She knew it was a publicity stunt created by Claire. After knowing the essence behind some things, she would not be interested in them.
"It's an honor, but this is not all of Nafu City. It will gradually increase and develop later..." Claire said softly.
Claire has only arranged some necessary hardware facilities for Nafu City, but there are still some requirements and details that have not been filled in, such as the restaurant on the coast of Mermaid Reef that he thought about, and there are many more besides this.
But Claire doesn't plan to do it himself. As long as more tourists come to Nafu City, these needs will naturally be satisfied under the market economy. Some residents in Nafu City can also make some money through these opportunities.
"Speaking of which, why is Madam suddenly interested in coming to see me?" Claire asked. Although he would have looked for her even if Sophia didn't come, people's hearts are so sinister that they have to be on guard, especially for a woman like Sophia.
"Have you forgotten, Lord Viscount? I also have investments in your city. Come and see what happened to my property?" Sophia pretended to be unhappy. "And if someone is fine, can't they come to you?"
Claire smiled a few times, this woman always said such unrealistic things.
"No, I'm honored that Madam came to see me."
"You can't believe what a man says. Were you also on that airship, coaxing little Irene like this?" Sophia asked, staring into Claire's eyes.
Claire My heart is about to burst out of my chest. Damn it, is this woman so well-informed? It had only been a few days, but she got the news so quickly!
Claire was flustered but calmly said, "Madam, you can't joke about this kind of problem. If your Majesty King finds out, he will kill me."
"Hehe." Sophia covered his mouth with a folding fan and laughed like a silver bell, "I won't hide it from you anymore. In fact, it was His Majesty King who sent me here. Princess Irene didn't reveal any information, but the one who accompanied him The two Archmages all saw it, Princess Irene kissed you that night, and even held your arms and spent the night with you..." After speaking, Sophia glanced at Claire gently with his eyes.
Claire couldn't help but swallowed, "Well... I didn't do anything at the time!" It's no wonder that Claire was nervous. Although he is much better now than when he first came to Nafu City, he is still a relatively powerful ant compared to the royal family. He can crush himself with one finger.
"Of course, if you had done anything to Princess Irene, I wouldn't have come to find you." Sophia said with a smile, "Don't be nervous..." She liked seeing Claire in embarrassment, which was a kind of fun for her.
Claire didn't want to beat around the bush anymore, he straight away said, "Then King, what does that mean, Your Majesty, you can do anything you want from me!"
In the face of his own life, Claire decisively chose to give in. Since the other party sent Sophia, it meant that there was still more to talk about. He couldn't just kill himself just because he was kissed by Irene.
If His Majesty King means to keep himself away from Irene, Claire guarantees that Irene will not even be able to see him. But if you want to follow Irene, it is not unacceptable, and you will not lose.
"I told His Majesty King before I came here that you are a smart person." There was a smile in Sophia's eyes.
Then he said, "It's not that you directly reject Irene, nor that he agrees to let you two be together. What your Majesty means is: don't make Irene sad..."
What kind of bullshit is this? It's the same as not saying it. Claire cursed secretly in his heart.
Sophia then explained, "Let nature mean...Irene is His Majesty's most precious Princess. Even if he falls in love with you, a border viscount, he won't mind your origin. But His Majesty also warns you, don't have any bad thoughts towards Irene."
Claire spread his hands and said, "You mean I'm going to be submissive? Princess Irene I'll give her whatever she wants. If she's not interested in me anymore, just get out of here, right?"
"I just said you are a smart person." Sophia smiled.
Claire also nodded. Fortunately, King was reasonable and he still had some power to choose.
As for Irene, it shouldn't be a big problem. He still has the ability to fool a little girl. Just try not to let her disturb his affairs. When he grows up later, His Majesty King may have to sell it to him to save face.
