The signing ended in Fitz's increasingly cold atmosphere. The fans came happily and left cursing.
He Huan rubbed Fitz's hand: "Are you tired?"
"Not tired." Fitz kissed his cheek: "I have to go, there are some social events that I have to attend in person."
"Go ahead, I'm fine." He Huan said considerately.
Fitz stood up and bowed slightly to Mrs. Gloria and Cornelia. "Please help me take care of He Huan."
Madam Gloria smiled and said, "You don't need to tell me that. Just go ahead and relax."
"Prince, please rest assured. I will never leave He Huan's side!" Cornelia promised loudly.
Fitz thought that with these two people of seniority guarding He Huan, no one should be able to bully him. He nodded at them, turned and left.
When Cornelia saw Fitz leave, she immediately threw herself on He Huan and said enviously, "The prince dotes on you so much. I'm so envious!"
"Brother Li Qi really loves you, but you are so arrogant and don't want him to get close to you." He Huan said jokingly. As expected, Cornelia blushed and didn't dare to laugh at He Huan anymore.
Mrs. Gloria sighed and smiled with relief: "Seeing you and Fitz getting along so well, I am happy and a little sad."
He Huan was stunned: "Sad?"
Mrs. Gloria frowned, a little sad: "If my sister, Fitz's mother, could see how happy you are, it would be great."
He Huan took her hand and said, "I heard that after the Queen passed away, it was you who raised Fitz. You are the mother of Fitz and me. What you saw is equivalent to what the Queen saw."
Gloria was stunned for a moment, then smiled, like the light of dawn dispelling the dark clouds: "You are really good at talking."
He Huan held her hand tightly: "That's how it should be. You have been helping me and Fitz a lot. I don't know how to thank you."
"That's as it should be." Gloria said, "Since his sister left, Fitz has become cold and it's hard for anyone to get close to him. It's as if his sister's departure took away his emotions. I don't know how to thank you for restoring his human emotions."
"Actually, I wasn't planning to come to today's party. But Fitz said you were coming, so I came."
He Huan was surprised: "Is that so? Are you afraid that I will be bullied?"
Gloria nodded: "Sorry, I'm late. When I arrived, I heard that you had choked Charlotte. How happy!"
He Huan laughed: "If they hadn't taken the initiative to cause trouble, I wouldn't bother to bother with them." However, from Gloria's words, He Huan still heard the hidden meaning, the relationship between Gloria and the princess was so bad. And the reason for their feud was probably related to the queen.
As a member of the royal family, Gloria couldn't say many things and could only say so briefly.
But with Cornelia, a girl who speaks without restraint, there are no taboos about things that are inconvenient to say.
It turned out that Charlotte entered the palace as a lady-in-waiting to serve Queen Tadette. Because of her gentle personality and serious work, she was appreciated and valued by the queen.
But Tad never expected that her trusted and capable assistant would secretly seduce her husband.
Later, Tadette expelled Charlotte from the palace, but unexpectedly, King Cent had always maintained a close relationship with Charlotte.
Tadée was already in poor health after giving birth to Fitz, and she became so angry and depressed because of this incident that she was unable to recover. She was bedridden for a year and eventually died of the disease.
Tadette's departure finally awakened the philandering king, but the person was gone and it became a regret. Cent was about to break up with Charlotte, but unexpectedly Charlotte told him that she was pregnant and the baby was already four months old.
This baby is Myron today.
Because of this unexpected child, Sent took Charlotte to the palace despite everyone's opposition. However, in order to make up for the Donnell family and Prince Fitz, Sent promised that during his lifetime, the queen position would always belong to Tadette, and Charlotte could only exist as a princess.
After listening to Cornelia's narration, He Huan learned the secrets of the royal family. He then understood why Fitz was so at odds with the king and why his relationship with Myron was so bad. It is not difficult to imagine how lonely and cold the childhood of young Fitz was.
Gloria said to He Huan sincerely: "So, the person who was hurt the most was actually Fitz. I'm really glad that you healed him."
He Huan was a little moved when he heard this. In the past, he had no intention of spending the rest of his life with Fitz, and even resisted having a long-term relationship with him because of his identity.
But as he got to know Fitz more and more during this period, and they became more intimate with each other, he felt so lucky that this man could put aside his dignity, peel off his hard shell, and take the initiative to warm him.
The banquet continues.
With the presence of Madam Gloria, no one dared to cause trouble.
When everyone saw how Mrs. Gloria cared about He Huan, they gradually changed their views of He Huan.
You have to know that the Donnell family is nominally headed by Gloria's brother, but in reality she is the one in power.
Gloria's excellent business acumen and sharp and accurate vision made her the richest woman in the empire.
It’s a pity that she is of the beta gender and cannot inherit the family business, otherwise the Donnell family, which has been prominent for hundreds of years, would continue to prosper.
Even so, there were many nobles who wanted to please Gloria. Seeing that Gloria had recognized He Huan, they also began to show their goodwill to He Huan.
He Huan was neither humble nor arrogant, and his well-mannered manners and conversation won the favor of everyone, and the two sides quickly became friends.
This harmonious atmosphere continued into the evening.
The clock struck eight and the highlight of the birthday party began.
Charlotte had already changed into a gorgeous evening gown, and her exquisite and gorgeous makeup was impeccable.
She took King Cent's arm and slowly walked onto the red carpet covered with flowers and ribbons.
The next step was to give speeches and interact with distinguished guests. There were elegantly dressed people, clinking glasses, and laughter. The whole venue reached its peak of liveliness.
He Huan was not very interested in these things, he even felt tired. But as Fitz's partner, he had to accompany him to socialize with certain people and things.
"Tired?" Fitz held his waist and leaned his weight on himself.
He Huan took advantage of the situation and put all his weight on Fitz: "Tired!"
"I'll take you to the lounge," Fitz said as he was about to refuse a politician's toast to him.
He Huan held his hand and said with a smile: "But I still want to stay by your side and shoulder my responsibilities."
Fitz looked at him in surprise, pleasantly surprised by He Huan's sudden change: "Thank you."
In his opinion, He Huan is not a person who would wrong himself, and he can even be said to be very willful. He will never waste time and energy on things he doesn't like to do.
"Is this a sweet burden?" He Huan asked him with a raised face.
Fitz laughed: "Then you can't regret it."
"Won't."
…
A Roman column in the corner of the venue.
Yalian and Hicks had been hiding behind and peeping for more than half an hour.
"Isn't he pregnant? Why isn't he going to the lounge?!"
"Look at his flat belly. He doesn't look like he's seven months pregnant. He's definitely faking it."
Hicks scratched his hair in annoyance and glared at an omega who tried to get close to him.
The omega originally wanted to get close to him, but was given a vicious look and ran away angrily.
Yalian said: "If he never leaves Fitz, won't he end up leaving with Fitz?"
Hicks' eyes flashed with a sinister look: "We must not let him go!"
According to the information obtained, He Huan rarely goes out after retiring from the entertainment industry, and even if you visit him, you may not be able to see him. This birthday party is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Call the princess and see if she has any other plans."
Hicks was about to turn on the computer when a call came in from an unfamiliar number.
"I have arranged for someone to lure Fitz away. You find someone to lure away Gloria and Cornelia."
"Princess?" Hicks called out uncertainly, but the voice didn't sound quite like it.
But the other party hung up the call after saying this.
Hicks and Yalian looked at each other. The person who made this call should be arranged by Charlotte.
The two were still a little hesitant. At this moment, an officer walked up to Fitz and said a few words to him. Fitz said something to He Huan apologetically, then let go of his arm and left with the officer.
He Huan stood there and waited for a while. Gloria and Cornelia ran over quickly like old hens protecting their children and surrounded He Huan.
Hicks frowned as he looked at the two women: "It seems that the phone call just now..."
"Don't say that." Ya Lian interrupted him: "Now we have to find a way to lure these two women away."
…
He Huan yawned. His body still tired easily after becoming pregnant.
It was a great help to Fitz that he was called away by an officer, and it was a good opportunity for him to take a rest.
Mrs. Gloria and Cornelia were already tired of this kind of socializing, so they used the excuse of taking care of He Huan and the three of them found a secluded booth to rest.
Before the three of them had even sat down on their stools, a young and handsome alpha came over. He extended his hand to Cornelia in a gentlemanly manner, wanting to invite her to dance.
Cornelia looked troubled.
He Huan asked her, "What's wrong?"
"He's one of my cousins, and he's pursuing me, but I don't... uh, but he's helped our family a lot recently, so I'm embarrassed to reject him directly." Cornelia whispered.
"Then go ahead. A dance won't take up much time." Mrs. Groya said, "I'm here."
"Yeah, a dance only takes a few minutes, go ahead." He Huan said to her, "Don't pay too much attention to Fitz's rude request. There are so many people here, I won't be in any danger."
"Then I'll go." Cornelia said sorry to He Huan embarrassedly, then extended her hand to the handsome alpha.
After Cornelia left, several handsome alphas suddenly appeared and invited Gloria to dance, but they were all rejected by Gloria.
"What's going on tonight? Why are so many alphas asking me to dance?" Gloria said puzzled.
"It's because you're very popular." He Huan said with a smile. Although he said so, his keen sense of crisis made him have a bad premonition.
Gloria is not a shy girl like Cornelia. She can become a business queen with an extremely sharp intuition. "I always feel that something is wrong. Are these people deliberately trying to get us away from you?"
At this time, a handsome alpha who looked like he was of high status gave Gloria a glass of wine: "Madam, may I invite you to taste this glass of wine?"
Gloria looked at him coldly: "No!"
Alpha's smile froze on his face, but he still tried: "You can try it first, this is from 1973..."
"Shut up! Get out!" Gloria didn't even give him any face and acted as ferociously as a provoked lioness.
The noble alpha, who was not of low status, also changed his expression. He sneered, "It's just a glass of wine. It's fine if you don't want to drink it. But it's really rude to put on such a ferocious face."
Gloria completely ignored his humiliation and didn't even look at him.
The ashamed alpha left angrily.
"Madam, you are..." He Huan was puzzled. She could have rejected her in a more tactful way, so why did she use such drastic measures
Gloria had a stern face, and her purple eyes scanned the surroundings coldly: "If we don't take ruthless measures, these shameless people will continue to harass us. Now, we should be able to have some peace and quiet for a while."
It has to be said that her ruthless method was very effective, and no one dared to come to them again.
But nearly ten minutes had passed, and Cornelia had not returned, so both dances could have been finished.
Gloria's face gradually became serious. She said to He Huan, "Hurry up and call Fitz and ask him to come back."
He Huan didn't hesitate and raised his wrist to dial Fitz's number.
"Oh no, ma'am! Please go over and take a look!" A waiter suddenly ran up to Gloria and shouted.
Gloria looked at the guy suspiciously and said nothing.
The waiter grabbed Gloria's arm anxiously and said, "Duke Donnell humiliated the daughter of the Derksen family. The Duke asked me to ask you to come over quickly!"
Gloria couldn't help but stood up: "What's going on?!"
Although her good-for-nothing brother was a playboy, he was clear-headed and knew what to do and what not to do. He would never humiliate the daughter of the Derksen family.
That stubborn old man Derksen only has this one daughter, and she's a delicate and bad-tempered omega. Everyone who sees her has to avoid her. How dare her brother poke this hornet's nest? !
"Really, I didn't say anything. If you don't believe me, look over there." The waiter didn't look fake anxious, and he pointed to the southeast outside the door.
Gloria stretched her neck to look over there, and He Huan also stood up. With his excellent eyesight, he saw that there was indeed a dispute over there. And the person surrounded in the middle was indeed Duke Donnell.
He Huan had just greeted him this afternoon, and he had a deep impression of him. At this moment, this distinguished duke was being scolded by a pretty girl with his head down.
"It is indeed the Duke of Donnell. Let's go over and take a look." He Huan said to Groya.
Gloria had an unhappy expression on her face. She looked at her good-for-nothing brother, then at He Huan, hesitating.
"This is very strange!"
"I know." He Huan smiled and comforted her: "Go, ma'am, don't think of me as delicate. I will always be by your side."
Gloria was still worried: "Call Fitz first, I'll leave after he comes back."
"It's too late." He Huan showed her his light computer, but there was not even a single signal.
Gloria immediately raised her wrist, but there was no signal either. This was impossible in the interstellar era, as the signal would only be blocked if there was a war.
"It's those alphas from before!" Gloria gritted her teeth.
Among the alphas who came to invite Groya, one must have placed a signal blocker around them to prevent them from asking for help.
He Huan chuckled. This was very interesting.
Someone actually dared to attack him at the princess' birthday party. Who was this daring person
He Huan said to Gloria, "Let's go. If we don't go now, Duke Tangnai will be beaten into a pig's head."
Gloria bit her lip, and she could almost hear her brother's screams. In the end, she could only tell He Huan again and again: "You must not leave my side for more than three steps, understand?"
He Huan took the initiative to hold her hand: "Don't worry, aren't you curious about who dared to cause trouble for me in Dongnuo Palace?"
Gloria was startled, fear flashed in her purple eyes, and she felt her body was freezing cold.
The person who is most opposed to Fitz's marriage is Cent. Could it be him
She held He Huan's hand and was about to comfort him, but she found that He Huan had a smile on his face and didn't seem to care at all: "He Huan..."
He Huan ignored her surprise and pulled her out the door: "I'm really curious, which idiot dares to trouble me."
But Gloria didn't dare to be curious at all, and was forced to follow He Huan's pace, passing through the noisy crowd and all the way to the door.
…
Duke Donnell is not a good talker, but the omega opposite him happens to be very eloquent.
A tall alpha was bullied by a petite omega and became a coward. He wanted to run away in fear. It was so funny.
With Gloria's arrival, Duke Donnell seemed to have found his backbone. He hid behind his sister with a sad face, not caring at all about others laughing at his incompetence.
"What the hell is going on?!" Gloria scolded him harshly.
Duke Tangnai felt very aggrieved: "I am also confused. I just wanted to pour a glass of wine, and when I turned around, I accidentally bumped into her, and the red wine stained her clothes. She insisted that I humiliated her."
"Is that so?" Gloria frowned. She knew her brother's character and he would never dare to lie to her.
"It's really like this!" Duke Donnell grabbed his sister's hand and swore to the sky.
Gloria looked grimly at the Dexon family who were determined to fight to the death, Count Dexon's furious face, Mrs. Dexon's pitiful sobbing face, and Miss Dexon who was wrapped in a men's coat and had an arrogant attitude.
"How dare a duke do such a vulgar thing at the princess's banquet? It's too lawless!"
"Groya, you came at the right time. Your Tangnai family must give an explanation today, otherwise our Derksen family will never let it go!"
"I will never let my daughter suffer this!"
When Count Dexen saw Groya coming with a gloomy face and without saying a word, he became even more furious. He rushed over with his fat body, as if he wanted to teach the brother and sister a severe lesson.
As he moved with such force, the crowd also swayed, and many people stepped back to make way, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
He Huan suddenly felt a figure approaching him from behind. He glanced at the movements behind him. Even though the crowd was noisy, he could still see clearly the man with a nervous and weird expression.
But He Huan did not move, allowing the man to approach him step by step.
At this time, the two people with their heads buried pretended to bump into He Huan as they retreated, forcing him to separate from Gloria.
He Huan leaned back slightly, stepped back with his right foot, and then stuck to someone.
A hand grabbed his neck!
