Chapter 485 - Troubling Household Matters

Claude gave a resigned smile. “Let’s not ruffle her feathers. You’re pregnant now, so you might want to watch your mood. Mother’s getting older and the years of being served and attended to caused her to let it get to her head. Even so, we’re her children, so we can only tolerate her. If she’s doing something inappropriate, there’s nothing we can do but bear it. Don’t take it to heart.

“I had told Blowk that he shouldn’t care about what anyone says as long as he likes her. Just like shoes, you’ll never know whether they’re a good fit until you try them on, no matter how beautiful or expensive they are. Sometimes, they just don’t fit no matter the price. As long as we are strong, there’s no need to care about what others think. Perhaps Mother will change her mind when Adele finally gives birth…”

Claude sunk into his tub with a heavy heart and sigh. He saw the blue folder on his shelf and knew that it was the summary report Masonhughes had sent him. He didn’t hand it in personally so as not to interrupt his meeting, so it appeared that it wasn’t an urgent matter. It was still relatively peaceful.

Lazily, he picked up the folder and saw that it contained news from Whitestag about the royal capital. Nasri sent a few ambassadors to the royal capital to discuss the matter of the debt Aueras owed them. The late Stellin XI had taken three high-interest loans from Nasri and the due date for the payment was the 6th month of next year. The total sum amounted to eight million crowns.
