NovelOnlineChapter 1764: Love You for a Lifetime
"Taylor, this is your fault," Katherine looked at her son, heart aching. His hair was disheveled, his face bruised. Seeing her own son
beaten like this, it really was a mix of emotions for a mother.
But she had to advise, this apology had to be made, and the earlier, the more sincere.
"He beatlike this, isn't he at fault?" Taylor turned to look at his mother, a burning anger within him. "What's gotten into you
today? Are you really siding with him?"
"You were wrong first, | stand with what's right."
"No matter how wrong | was, it doesn't warrant this!" Taylor was furious. "If it weren't for Claire pleading for me, Louis would have
beatento death today!"
Katherine felt deeply for her son; his injuries were severe, even his eyes were swollen.
The mother and son's gazes met, and a brief silence fell upon the carriage.
Meanwhile, in Prince Louis's palace.

Rowan carried Claire up the stairs and straight into the bedroom.
She was burning up.
He bent to gently lay her on the bed, about to pour her a glass of water, but Claire's embrace tightened around his neck,
preventing him from moving away.
He stood there, close to her.
Claire was feeling terrible and had no desire for water.
Rowan couldn't bring himself to touch her, especially in this situation. As a man, his inner conflict was overwhelming.
Propping himself up with his elbow, he looked down at her. "Claire, are you still conscious?"
With her eyes closed, she nodded. "Will you marry me... right?"
Her throat was parched, like a fish out of water.
She was weak in body, but her mind was clear.
"I will," Rowan didn't hesitate. "I will take responsibility for you, marry you, and love you for a lifetime."
A lifetime...
How romantic and wonderful those four words were in a .
A radiant smile formed on Claire's lips, her cheeks blushing like peach blossoms.
As a doctor, Rowan understood clearly that instead of developing a remedy, it was better to follow the procedure... he would take
responsibility for her.
He also knew that Claire was clear-minded at this moment, she had a certain longing.
Couples in love usually take that step.
So, he carefully kissed her... using himself as the antidote.
Developing a remedy would take time, and she wouldn't hold on. Her body, pushed to its limits, might develop various issues.
About two hours later.
Rowan led Claire out of the room, their first ttogether, under such precarious circumstances. It was both risky and fateful, a
feeling beyond words.

To Claire, this had to happen with the person she loved the most.
The joy and beauty of it, she couldn't express in words.
As they descended the stairs, at the turn, they saw three people standing in the hall below.
Katherine, Julie, and Taylor.
Claire felt a bit nervous for no apparent reason. Taylor had been quite beaten up just now. Were they here for a confrontation with
his mother?
Rowan paused for a moment, his expression cool as he stared down at the three below, his anger rising!
Gripping Claire's hand, he continued down the steps with her.
Claire's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't predict what would happen next. Would there be a conflict?
By courtesy, Rowan should greet the queen, after all, she was his stepmother, his elder.
But at this moment, the cold aura emanating from him made him want to express his emotions with his fists rather than waste a
single word.
Katherine and Julie also felt the chill from Prince Louis and realized that it would be difficult for him to easily forgive Taylor.
