How to Tame a Villain Character-Chapter 229: Preparation for Coronation Ceremony

Even though they had only been apart for two hours, Claudia already missed her husband even though she was the one who advised him to act professionally. Claudia was so focused on working that her stomach started to growl. For a moment she looked at her luxury watch indicating that it was time for lunch. She felt like running into Harry’s office, but after thinking about it, she still had to treat Harry as just a colleague.

"Claudia, don’t you want to go to lunch?" asked Larissa while closing the leather folder.

"I’m not hungry." Suddenly her stomach suddenly made a sound, making Larissa laugh out loud.

"You’ve never been good at lying." Larissa looked at the wall clock. "You’d better eat first. Should I call Harry to pick you up?"

"I-"

Suddenly there was a soft knock on the door. The door opened wide to reveal the handsome Duke who wanted to visit his wife now.

"Princess Larissa, may I borrow Claudia for a moment?"

"If necessary, you can just kidnap her, Harry. She’s been hungry since then, but she’s trying to hold it in."

Harry shot his wife a smirking look. "Why didn’t you tell me earlier?"

Claudia responded with a flat smile while wearing a blazer and taking a sling bag. "I’m busy working. Besides, I don’t want to disturb you from working."

"But, you still have to eat if you’re hungry!"

Secretly Claudia touched her husband’s index finger while bringing her lips closer to his ear. "How about we leave now? It’s just a matter of getting angry at me later."

Even though King Godfrey had offered to have lunch together at the palace, Claudia and Harry immediately refused because if they had lunch together, they wouldn’t be able to freely make out in the palace. There were many eyes and ears in the palace, they didn’t want to be the talk of the palace servants.

As usual, they had lunch together at the VIP restaurant which Harry always ordered before lunch time. In this room there were only them, Claudia wanted to enjoy a moment of togetherness with her husband during an hour’s break. Her gaze twinkled at her husband who had been feeding her.

"Actually, I wanted to scold you earlier. Why do you prioritize work over your own body?" scolded Harry pursed his lips.

"Because I’m usually like that when I’m working," Claudia answered innocently, making Harry even more annoyed.

"If I hadn’t invited you to lunch earlier, would you have continued working until you were really hungry?"

Hearing Harry’s tone become increasingly curt, Claudia pursed her lips and looked away. "Forgive me."

"If you feel guilty, you have to finish all the food I ordered so you don’t starve."

"Everything? From appetizers to dessert?"

Harry nodded. "I’m sure you can finish it all if I feed you."

"Actually, when I was working, I wanted to meet you in your office." Claudia looked down while playing with her nails.

"Why don’t you visit my office? Is it because the doorman won’t let you in?"

"Because I would be embarrassed if I visited you without a purpose. I don’t want to become the talk of the palace maids."

"Okay, I’ll visit you if I’m not busy."

"The palace maids won’t gossip about us if I visit you."

"But, I still want to separate work and personal feelings. Isn’t that your main principle for a long time? Since you married me, you have become very spoiled."

When lunch time was over, Claudia continued to act as a professional Duchess even though she could visit the defense minister’s office if she missed her husband. Towards the afternoon, for some reason her stomach started to get hungry even though she had eaten a lot at lunch.

This time Claudia and Larissa worked in the palace garden gazebo. Claudia took a short break around the palace garden while stretching her stiff muscles. When she stretched her arms up, she suddenly felt the warm touch of her husband’s hand, which shocked her.

"Since when have you been here?" said Claudia a little nervously.

"I just arrived here and found you suddenly. I happened to want to meet you." Harry gave Claudia a paper bag.

Claudia opened a paper bag containing two boxes of chocolate cookies. At first she had a grinning look, now her gaze was sparkling seeing that her husband was very sensitive and could read her thoughts.

"Thank you, Harry. I will definitely finish all the special cookies you gave me." Claudia kissed him briefly on the cheek.

Harry smiled shyly when his cheek was suddenly kissed. "You can share these cookies with Larissa. She also really likes cookies even though she doesn’t really like chocolate."

"Then can I finish it all?"

"As long as Larissa doesn’t find out, you can finish it all."

It doesn’t feel like time has passed quickly. Two weeks have passed preparing for the hero’s coronation ceremony, all preparations starting from the event schedule, vendors to prepare food for the party, palace decorations, and various other things for the coronation are all ready. Now there was only clothing left to discuss with Taylor.

Claudia visited Taylor unaccompanied by anyone. She had prepared various clothing design concepts for the main star at the coronation event, including that she wanted the clothes to be the same as Harry’s clothes.

"By the way, it seems like now your husband visits me more often than you," said Taylor, chuckling.

"Actually, he really likes all your clothes. That’s why now he really relies on you to design the best clothes for him."

"You really make a great couple. Every time Harry visits me, he always warns me to make clothes that aren’t too flashy for you." Taylor’s eyes fell on Claudia’s sketchbook. "I will make sure all the clothes for the coronation ceremony will be finished on time." freewēbnoveℓ.com

"Thank you, Taylor. You’ve always been very reliable."

"Actually, I want to tell you something about Clarissa. It seems like she’s been having problems lately. You have to calm her down, Claudia."
