Chapter 1788
There would always be dirt behind great power, and even in the past, it never ended well for the subjects
who had more power than the king
Daisie crushed the paper, looking angry.
At the White Ivy Palace’s meeting room…
The ministers discussed what the media outlets reported in a serious manner because it was a huge
issue.
They had differing views because some thought it was a deliberate attempt at breaking the trade
relationship between the two countries, while others thought that Zlokova was trying to get involved with
their country.
King William picked up his cup and took a sip of hot tea. The chatter continued until he slammed the cup
down.
There was immediate silence.
King William crossed his fingers, placed them on the table, and said with a stoic expression, “I

in our politics based on this news report.”
“Your Majesty, even though this can’t prove anything, we should be careful about the relationship
between the Goldmanns and the Hathaways.”
The king squinted. “Are you trying to say that the Hathaways are linked to this?”
The minister carefully said, “I’m worried that that’s true.”
King William laughed. “If you could contribute a huge sum of money for our defense to build equipment
and battleships, and if you could pay half of the national tax paid by the Hathaways, I would agree with
your statement.”
The minister clammed up after that because the Hathaways had contributed a huge sum to their military
and were pretty much the finance minister. If they offended them, it would be disastrous in terms of
benefits.
The king thought highly of benefits, so he wouldn’t let anything threaten the Hathaways. Thus, it would
be a dead end if they were to challenge them.
King William sat in the meeting room alone after the meeting. Paul walked to his side. “Your Majesty.”
The king rapped his knuckles on the table before asking, “What do you think about this?”
Paul paused for a few seconds, then lowered his head and answered, “We have important ties to
Zlokova. Even if the Goldmanns got involved with the royals, it doesn’t mean that it would affect our
politics. It would be personal matters.”
“Personal matters?” The king squinted, then picked up his cane and slowly stood up.” Is this related to
Nollace and the Goldmann girl?”
Paul chuckled. “There’s a big dispute between Ms. Livingston and Ms. Vanderbilt. I guess the media just
made it into a bigger deal than it actually is.”
King William nodded and didn’t say anything. He left the room with Paul and saw Diana walking toward
them.
Paul nodded at her.

King William looked at her and said, “Let’s go to the study.”
After they walked in, Paul closed the door and waited outside.
King William sat on the couch and rested his cane at the side.” Go ahead.”
Diana took a deep breath. “I’ll get straight to the point then. I’ve lost contact with Nollace.”
King William was surprised. “What?”
“Nollace went to Haniston, and I can’t get through on his phone. He might be in trouble.” Diana sat
across from him and couldn’t hide her anxiety.
The king asked, “What is he doing in Haniston?” Diana calmed down before replying, “I don’t know,
Father. Nollace is my son. If something happens to him there, I will never be able to forgive myself.”
“Diana, calm down,” advised King William. “I’ll send someone to Haniston to find out how he is. He’s my
grandson, I won’t let anything happen to him.”
