After a hearty lunch, the two sat down in front of the fire to communicate, only one maid remained in the room, and the others returned to the dining room in the back kitchen to enjoy lunch.

"Is there anything you want to say to me?" asked Adellaid, sipping the green gin, looking at the burning firewood.

In the past, at this time, he should have rushed into the room with himself in his arms, but today's performance was not at all like the style of the past.

"I have a plan, maybe I should tell you in advance. In a deep groan, Li Zitao decided to tell her about Bethlehem and his future plans first.

"Did you mention it to your mother?" asked Adellaid.

"I intend to go to Fort Grand Ducal in person after the merger in Bethlehem is over. Li Zitao said according to the original plan.

"I think you should talk to your mother now, Albert's shares are not all in her hands, and she needs time to move the other shareholders. ”

Hearing Adelayid say this, Li Zitao was curious: "Isn't our shares added up enough?"

"Some problems can't be solved by shares alone, just like a lot of things can't be solved by brute force alone. ”

Seeing her fiancé's curious look, Adellaide patiently explained Albert's situation to him.

Europe's largest steel company was formed by the merger of three major steel companies.

Before facilitating the deal, the Grand Duke made a promise to retain some of their powers.

For example, in some cases, it has the right to voluntarily break away from Albert and regain the right to operate independently.

In addition, Albert also has a large number of equity representatives of steel companies, and these small shareholders hold very few shares.

But behind each of them is a Luxembourg-based steel company, and all of them are united to occupy half of Luxembourg's steel industry.

"Luxembourg can be called a steel kingdom, and it is inseparable from their support, and if you want to open up the European market, you also need their help. ”

After listening to his fiancée's explanation, Li Zitao knew that he was different.

I thought that only the Grand Duke needed to be convinced, but it turned out that there were many representatives of steel companies, the Luxembourg Iron and Steel Association, the European Steel Association, etc.

"It just so happens that I miss my mother a little, let's come along!" Li Zitao was thinking about whether to make a phone call now, and Adellaide took the lead and walked towards the study.

With such a considerate and capable wife who is longing for him, Li Zitao feels that he must have saved all mankind in his last life.

dialed the phone of the Grand Duke in the study, listened to Adelaide and the Grand Duke talking about family life, and after half a ring, she turned the topic to Li Zitao.

"Mother wants to talk to you personally. Adellaide handed over the microphone.

"Your Excellency, good afternoon, are you in good spirits?" Li Zitao greeted with a smile.

"I'm fine, Charlie, I hope you have time to bring Mary back to see, without her, the Grand Duke seems a little lonely!"

"Okay, I was going to take her with me to meet you when the matter was over," Li Zitao repeated his plan.

"It's a good idea, I'll hold a meeting with the association, and I'm sure the results will be satisfactory, but before that, I need a detailed report on them. ”

It is completely unrealistic to let the Grand Duke convince others with only his mouth.

"I'll get Ben in order as soon as I can, and I'll send it to the Grand Duke by mail, and Mary and I will be on the road soon. After finalizing his trip to Luxembourg early next month, Li Zitao handed the phone back to his fiancée and sat next to him and waited.

"Okay, goodbye Mother, Mother. Hanging up the phone, Adellaid winked mischievously and laughed, "Mother said she would do her best to make the deal happen." ”

"That's great news, and thanks to the fact that I have a shrewd and capable fiancée. Li Zitao got up and put his arm around her waist, put her against the desk and smiled.

"My dear, the look in your eyes worries me a little. Seeing his intentions, Adellaide tried to push him.

"Yes, as you think, it was great and would make our afternoon unforgettable. With a strong lift of his hands, Her Royal Highness sat down on the table.

"Oh, you ferocious beast, I'm going to go crazy"

The fierce battle began, and the person waiting at the door had been replaced by Dan, who moved to the side of the corridor with a blank face after hearing the movement in the house.

At the same time, he waved his hand to signal the red-faced maids to leave, now was not the time for the master to need to serve.

After dinner, Li Zitao opened the door in disheveled clothes and said, "Let Phyllis go to the study, and bring clothes that fit." ”

Ever since there were servants in the room, he could no longer be as unscrupulous as he once was, leaving a mark of love in every corner of the room.

It's so boring!

"Ms. Phyllis, you need to make a trip to the study and bring appropriate clothing. A maid relayed the message to her.

"Who's?" asked Phyllis.

"Both. The maid pursed her lips and snickered, causing Phyllis to stare sharply.

With two comfortable dressing gowns in both hands, Phyllis came to the study, and Dan knocked on the door and left, leaving her alone.

"Phyllis?" Li Zitao's voice came out.

"Yes, sir. Phyllis replied, a little nervous.

"Come in!" Hearing the response, Phyllis took a deep breath, pushed the door open and walked in.

The air in the room was very poor, Li Zitao was sitting on the sofa, wearing a suit crookedly, and his soaked shirt was still on the ground.

Her Royal Highness the princess was limp and curled up in his arms, and her sweaty pink skin looked extremely attractive.

"Give me the dressing gown. Li Zitao stretched out his hand, took the burgundy nightgown and put it on the princess, and then gently put her on the sofa.

It's just that at this moment, he made Phyllis a little embarrassed, and the outfit under the suit seemed to be completely torn.

"Thank you. Taking the nightgown and throwing off the wet suit, Li Zitao stepped forward to pick up the princess and said, "This place needs to be cleaned, I hope you will do it yourself, is there a problem?"

"Nope. Phyllis looked down, only to see the gap between his dressing gowns.

It wasn't until Li Zitao left with the sleeping princess in his arms that Phyllis opened her mouth wide and gasped deeply, and the faint breath in the air made her heart beat faster.

When she saw the torn strips of cloth all over the floor, and the water stains on the table and sofa, her breathing became heavier, and her chest rose and fell like ocean waves.

Picking up the pants with only the waist fabric left, and looking at the torn place underneath, Phyllis's worldview refreshed again.

Her Royal Highness, the once pearl-like lady, was tempted by the devil?
