Reborn as a small European country

Chapter 144 Kate's Attitude
"what do you want to do?"

"What do you say?"

"I'm not the best fit."

"But in my eyes it is."

"I hope you won't regret it in the future."

"I hope so too."

"you……"

The guests at the banquet tried their best to leave space for Joseph and Kate to get along alone. In fact, Kate was very dissatisfied with Joseph's behavior, which could be detected from her tone.

A V-neck brown evening dress made Kate's figure bumpy, and the hot figure unique to Westerners was undoubtedly revealed on her body, and the bright jewelry made her hot while adding a touch of dignity and gentleness.

Smelling her good smell, Joseph wanted to laugh a little, because Kate, who was blocked by his words, was actually cute, which was a rare feeling.

"Your uncle!"

At this moment, Joseph saw the figure of Baron Abbott, and he wanted to walk over while speaking, but he didn't expect his arm to be pulled, and when he turned around, he saw Kate who was a little nervous.

"Joseph, we are very different in age, do you really want to?"

"Age is not an issue for me."

Smiling slightly, Joseph was about to push Kate away and grab his hand, but what he didn't expect was that Kate didn't let go, but took a deep breath and said, "I promise to marry you."

kindness?Looking at Kate with some doubts, the answer he got was that Kate nodded seriously.

That's fine, after all, saying something in such a public place feels a bit aggressive, although it is true in fact, but Joseph doesn't want to get such a bad reputation.

"Baron Abbott, I'm Joseph!"

Although they no longer act according to the plan, greetings are still needed, but Baron Abt is obviously not used to it, because the senior nobles at the banquet are watching them both openly or secretly.

"Hello, His Majesty the Grand Duke Joseph."

"Kate and I are planning to get engaged in a few days. Uncle Abt doesn't need to be called that."

Nani?Joseph's voice was not low, so the guests who heard this sentence were very surprised. Shouldn't it be a drama where Joseph forced Kate to agree to marry to the Principality of Nord?Why now...is this agreed?

Turning their eyes to Kate, what they saw was Kate with a calm face, without the slightest resistance, ready to refute or other expressions, and the guests became more and more puzzled.

Of course, there are smart people here, and they quickly understood the reason for such downplaying, and they couldn't help but look at Kate with admiration. This is an excellent woman who understands current affairs and handles emotional matters so rationally.

Earl Campbell's already pale face became even paler. What could hit him more than Kate's lack of refutation?He was like an outsider, a clown.

Although the Prince of Wales and Princess Diana were equally surprised, things were still within their expectations, especially Princess Diana. From the conversation just now, she guessed that maybe Kate would choose to deal with this in the end.

"got engaged?"

Perhaps Baron Abbott was the most surprised one, but he soon came to his senses. He did not dare to ignore the friendship shown by Joseph, and the future depends on Joseph's attitude towards him.

"My godfather Paul is in London, maybe you should meet up, I believe you should have a lot of common language."

This is a great thing, although Baron Abt doesn't know who Paul is at all, but hearing the word "Godfather" is enough for him to please him. He must be an important figure in the Principality of Nord - Baron Abt guessed so.

The following banquet was much more dull and boring. The nobles got together to talk about some auctions and political views. Joseph also sat with the Prince of Wales to talk about the economic issues of Britain and Nord.Of course it's all small talk, there's not much that's really useful and sensitive.

After the dinner, Joseph and Kate strolled on the streets of London. Not far away were the guards of the Nord Security Bureau. Unfortunately, there were not many pedestrians on the street, so it was not easy to completely conceal their identities.

"What are you going to do about Campbell?"

"Just an ordinary friend, I've only known him for a few weeks."

How many weeks?In retrospect, it is true, and Kate didn't explicitly reveal anything, and it is a good way to play down the treatment.

"I'm eight years older than you!"

"Wait another four years, and I will give you a beautiful wedding."

Kate has no doubts about whether it is good or bad. What she wants is an accurate answer. After all, Kate is 22 years old this year, and she can't afford to delay it for too long.

"You can live in the Nord Palace."

"The name is not right and the words are not right."

In fact, with Joseph's words, Kate is completely relieved. If she is allowed to choose, she doesn't like to live in the Nord Palace very much. As she said, the name is not right.

"Now you are handling the family business?"

Since Kate was unwilling, Joseph had no choice but to change the topic. Business is undoubtedly something that Kate is interested in and worth talking about. The most important thing is that Kate is also interested in it.

"It's just a small part of the core business, and Abbott is still handling the rest."

"If you become Princess Nord, I wonder if those businesses will be handed over to Abbott?"

"If you want me to hate you, then go ahead and do it."

Kate understands that if Joseph insists on doing this, then she can only compromise, and this sentence is the only word that can threaten Joseph, and she also wants to see Joseph's attitude towards her or her position in her heart based on this.

But Kate didn't get the answer she wanted. Joseph smiled and didn't answer. He was speechless all the way. When he came to the hotel door, Joseph hugged him gently, turned and left.

Joseph's room in Buckingham Palace. When he arrived here, the first thing Joseph saw was the long-awaited Paul. He did not attend the banquet. After all, the British believe in the Anglican Church. He, a Christian bishop, is not suitable for such an occasion.Of course, the Prince of Wales also made an invitation, but was rejected by Paul.

"I already know about the banquet, how do you want me to treat Abt?"

It’s okay not to mention Abt, but Joseph has a headache when he is mentioned, and now Joseph really doesn’t know how to face Abt, after all, he secretly promised to give him some benefits during the banquet.But now...he didn't expect Kate to hate his uncle to such an extent.
