Free Web NovelChapter 1605: Chapter 1605: May I Invite You to Dance?
The handsome princes also found their dance partners one after another, enjoying the royal family’s most elegant and relaxing reception ball together.
Many royal officials seized the opportunity to come over and toast with Justin Kingston; most of them were also in business.
In Lorelei, royal family members can engage in business, and most of them have their own enterprises.
Justin Kingston is the King’s favorite and a legend in the business world, so naturally, they want to forge connections with him.
Strauss’s music has always been admired by the aristocracy, and almost all the young people in the palace know how to dance to it.
Ian Shelby, wearing a white shirt, stood by the arched window, holding a wine glass with one hand in his pocket, exuding elegance and composure; tonight was an opportunity for him.
He could judge through observation who genuinely respected his father and who only paid lip service.
Because all the important royal members were present.
When entering the dining hall, Ian silently noted all the place cards on the table, and by now he could match their names with titles and appearances.
In the resplendent banquet hall, Jocelyn Morgan stood about five meters away from Ian, she casually glanced in his direction, this was the first time today she looked directly at him.
Her gaze lingered on him for only a brief three seconds before quickly withdrawing.
Though they were so close, it felt as if they were separated by mountains and rivers, a melancholy that was truly heartbreaking.
She really wanted to help him.
Tilting her head back, Jocelyn Morgan drank the wine in her glass in one go.
Not far away, Prince Taylor, who had been watching her, took in her bold drinking action through his eyes.
He began to walk toward her with a wineglass in hand, his deep and passionate gaze fixed on her, appreciating her beauty once more.
Truly pleasing to the eye.
Jocelyn Morgan was about to dispose of her empty glass when Prince Taylor stopped right in her path.
Jocelyn was forced to stop, almost bumping into his arms, instinctively took two steps back, and met Taylor’s gaze, she was slightly stunned.
This person, she had already... seen three times.
She steadied herself, looked at him calmly, pretending not to know his identity.
In fact, she had also looked at everyone’s place cards while eating earlier; he had deliberately waited until most people were seated to come in, so she naturally knew his identity.
"Hello, my name is Taylor." Prince Taylor smiled slightly, his gaze fixed on her, "Miss Morgan, may I invite you to a dance?"
Not far away, Ian Shelby inadvertently glanced over and happened to witness this scene, seeing Taylor standing with a smile in front of Jocelyn.
"I’m sorry, Prince, I don’t know how to dance." Jocelyn replied politely to him.
"No worries, I can teach you," Taylor quickly added, displaying unprecedented patience in dealing with the matter, "Dancing is actually quite simple."
Jocelyn shook her head, "In other words, I have no interest in dancing."
"Then what interests Miss Morgan?" Taylor seemingly had no intention of letting her go, even if just to chat with her, it would be wonderful.
He looked at her with a smile, admiring her beauty up close, waiting for her answer.
Subconsciously, Jocelyn glanced in Ian’s direction, and happened to find him watching her, their eyes met; his expression was so calm.
The eye contact lasted a few seconds before Jocelyn quickly withdrew her gaze.
She couldn’t guess what Ian was thinking at that moment, but she could sense his heavy mood.
Not because of her, but because of his family matters.
So could the murderer be approached through Prince Taylor?
Jocelyn suddenly had an inspiration, raising her eyes, she looked at the man before her again with a smile, asking, "Is the Prince interested to know?"
