Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations

Chapter 1616: Chapter 1616: A False Alarm

Soon, two servants appeared at the doorway, and they immediately saw the woman in the kitchen, stopping in their tracks.

"Who are you? How come you’re here?" one of them asked warily, scrutinizing Jocelyn Morgan without recognizing who she was.

Even if they knew who she was, she shouldn’t be in the kitchen area, given the King’s meals had problems, making her the prime suspect.

No one could bear such a huge responsibility.

Jocelyn Morgan was caught red-handed. She appeared calm, but inside she was already panicking.

Being here was a mistake, and no reason or explanation would suffice.

"I’m sorry, I’m looking for Prince Taylor." Jocelyn Morgan said with an uplifted corner of her lips, calmly, "I thought he was here because I saw him coming this way."

"Why would the Prince be here?" The other stepped forward two steps, their voice cold, looking at her sternly, not believing her at all, "Prince Taylor might not even be up at this hour!"

"Come with me to see the steward! You can explain to the steward!"

"..." Jocelyn Morgan realized things were going south. If taken to the steward, she would inevitably be searched.

No, she couldn’t see the steward!

At that moment, Prince Taylor appeared at the kitchen door. He heard the servant’s scolding from afar and saw the two blocking the doorway.

"What’s going on?" Taylor asked while walking over, "Why hasn’t Father’s breakfast been delivered yet?" As he spoke, he recognized the familiar figure inside.

"Jocelyn?" Taylor was taken aback.

"Hello, Prince!" The two servants quickly saluted, a bit flustered inside. Why was he here?

Prince Taylor appearing in the King’s palace so early in the morning was unprecedented.

"Jocelyn." Taylor ignored them, stepping inside directly to Jocelyn Morgan, "Are you alright? They didn’t trouble you, did they?"

Jocelyn Morgan hadn’t quite relaxed yet. She just calmly looked at him, shook her head, and didn’t say anything.

"Her name is Jocelyn Morgan. She is my friend, Taylor’s friend. Wherever she appears in the future, you are not allowed to trouble her!" Taylor said protectively to them, "Did you all remember?!"

"Remembered, Prince." The servants hung their heads low.

Thinking, was she really here to find Prince Taylor?

Taylor directly took Jocelyn Morgan’s wrist, leading her outside. Only when they were a good distance away did Jocelyn Morgan finally let out a sigh of relief and regain her composure.

That was really close, but she successfully collected the sample.

Jocelyn Morgan stopped, gently drawing her wrist out from Taylor’s hand. Taylor also stopped and turned, the two standing just a step apart, locking eyes.

"Just now... thank you."

"You’re welcome."

"I saw you coming, but when I went downstairs, I didn’t see you. I thought you might be over here, so I accidentally ended up in the kitchen." She explained calmly, not wanting to arouse his suspicion.

After all, his mother is Princess Catherine.

However, Taylor had a big heart; he wouldn’t think too deeply.

Instead, he gave the girl a smile, nonchalantly saying, "Why are you explaining? Since you are already staying near Father, I have time to show you around everywhere to avoid such awkward incidents again."

Jocelyn met his gaze, her lips turning up slightly, "Thank you."

Taylor asked again, "Did you have something to find me for?" His eyes full of smiles and expectation, unaware of her relationship with Louie.

Recalling her previous words, he was still quite happy.

Even though she has a boyfriend in Riventhal, Taylor still believed in his charm, believing in affection growing over time.

Jocelyn Morgan had to make her lie more seamless, so she said to him, "I just wanted to ask you, do you eat spicy food usually?"
