She didn't look like she was lying, which made Jolie start to doubt her own judgement.
If someone was lying, how could they keep a straight face and steady heartbeat?
Jolie asked her again, "What exactly did your sister-in-law come here to do?" Her eyes darkened,
hoping Claire would honestly confess.
Claire's lips curled up slightly as she asked back, "I don't know what the Captain of the Guards is
suspecting? It was your queen who invited my brother here, she took the initiative to propose
cooperation, my brother and his wife have a good relationship, so it's perfectly normal to bring his wife
on a business trip, right?"
"What can a woman do anyway?" Claire added another question.
Jolie's eyes were still cold. Every word the girl had just said seemed reasonable, but she would not
believe it.
Jolie examined her closely, looking her up and down.
Claire was actually very nervous inside, but she had strong composure and acted calm and poised.
Jolie thought to herself that she had really underestimated this girl. Her articulate speech showed she
had a clear mind, and her state made Jolie feel like she was not so simple.
"If the captain has nothing else, I'll be going now." After that, Claire walked past her and took a step
forward.
"Stand still." Jolie said coldly, with an aura.
Claire stopped in her tracks, with her back to Jolie, and her heart thumped lightly.
But she told herself she must not panic, she had to deal with this woman no matter what she said. As
long as there was no evidence, she could not admit anything!
Three seconds later, Claire heard footsteps.
Jolie passed by her and once again stood in front of her.
The two women's gazes converged again.
"You spilled tea all over me today on purpose, didn't you?" Although it was a question, it was spoken
with certainty. A trace of cold sharpness flashed in Jolie's eyes.
Claire's expression was still calm. "I already apologized to you about this. If the clothes are too dirty to
wash, give me a price and I'll compensate you. How could I have done it on purpose? We have no
grudges."
"Don't change the subject!" Jolie's face was cold, and she raised her voice a little!
Her tone showed impatience and strong dissatisfaction. "Claire, you deliberately spilled water all over
me today to stop me from following into the king's bedroom!" Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
The girl's heart sank heavily. She... could see through that?
The writer girl must not panic. Claire grasped Jolie's character firmly! But still bravely met her gaze,
"You slander! Do you have any evidence?"
At this moment, Queen Catherine hurried over, hearing the quarrel.
"What does it have to do with me whether you go in or not?" Claire looked really confused. "I was
originally going to bring tea to Prince Louis. I accidentally bumped into you and already apologized."
Their argument clearly reached Catherine's ears. She couldn't help but quicken her pace!
This Jolie was really looking for trouble.
Just before Jolie could speak again, Catherine grabbed her arm. "That's enough!" She lowered her
voice to stop her.
"Your Majesty." Claire greeted her politely.
But Jolie was fuming inside.
Catherine looked apologetic. "Claire, go on, Jolie is a little muddled today. Don't take it to heart."
The girl smiled at her. "Goodbye, Your Majesty." Without even glancing at Jolie again, she swiftly left.
Jolie suppressed her anger, glaring at the departing back, but didn't dare act rashly in the queen's
presence.
"Your Majesty!"
After Claire had gone far away, Jolie finally couldn't hold back. "She's just an outsider, why defend her
so much?"
