Chapter 537 Escort and Protection
Upon hearing this, Leonard playfully bit Paxon's smooth little belly.
Laughing, he said, "Guess I better not, then. I'd like to stick around a bit longer."
Paxon giggled from the bite, "Uncle, that tickles! Have mercy!"
"Still planning to yank out my oxygen tube?"
"No way, I promise."
As they were goofing around, Sebastian suddenly pushed the door open and walked in.
Seeing them on the floor, he immediately asked, "You made Paxon sleep on the floor?"
Leonard shot him a look, "Are you serious? Look at what your kid did. I almost drowned because of him."
Before he could finish, Paxon covered his mouth and blinked at him.
He whispered, "Uncle, watch what you say, or I won't like you anymore."
Sebastian walked over, checked Paxon's clothes, and picked him up from the floor.
He patted his little butt and asked, "Did you sneak a drink last night behind my back?"
Caught red-handed, Paxon's bright eyes blinked at Sebastian, and he softly said, "Orla said she couldn't finish it, so I helped her. Grandma said wasting is shameful, so I was just being helpful."
Sebastian laughed at his reasonable excuse.
He kissed Paxon's neck, "You really are the son of a great lawyer. Let's get you cleaned up and then go see your aunt."
"Yay! I get to play in the palace again."
After breakfast, Leonard took Orla to her appointment, while Sebastian took Paxon to the palace to see Bianca.
Paxon was dressed in a cream-colored little suit with a black bow tie.
His hair was slicked back with gel.
With his adorable and handsome face, no one could resist taking a second look at him.
Holding Sebastian's hand, he wasn't shy at all in the palace full of people.
He greeted everyone naturally.
The usually serious palace suddenly had this cute little child, and people started talking.
"That's Her Majesty's little nephew. He's so good-looking, I want to steal him away in a sack."
"Look at how handsome his dad is. This family's looks are out of this world."
"Hopefully, the Queen meets a handsome prince today, or those genes will be wasted."
"That's hard to say. Among the candidates, none are as good-looking as the Queen."
The maids were gossiping.
Seeing Bianca come out, Paxon immediately ran over with his short legs.
"Auntie, I'm here to help you pick a husband."
He jumped into Bianca's arms and looked up at her.
Bianca smiled and pinched his cheek, "Then you better help me pick well."
"If Edgar were here, it'd be great. I think he's the most handsome, and he likes you so much."
Bianca's expression darkened at the mention of that name, then she smiled slightly, "But I don't like him."
Paxon tilted his head, "If you don't like him, why did you cry? I saw you that day, coming out of your room with red eyes."
"Grown-up stuff, kids don't understand. Let's go get some treats."
Bianca held his hand and walked inside, talking to Sebastian, "Why didn't Leo come?"
"He's taking Orla to her appointment. He'll be here soon."
"With you two here, I'm relieved. Otherwise, who knows what kind of husband those old geezers would try to push on me."
Sebastian looked at her deeply, "Don't worry. You're the Queen for the Winters Family. Leo and I won't push you into the fire. As long as we don't agree, no one can force you to be with anyone."
Bianca smiled and patted Sebastian's shoulder, "Having family feels good. Otherwise, being Queen would be too miserable."
The palace held a private banquet for the Queen's suitor selection.
The guests were all nobles from Snowpeakia.
Some brought their sons, others came to watch.
After all, marrying the Queen meant a lifetime of glory and wealth.
Bianca was talking to Sebastian when the butler came to report, "Your Majesty, all the guests have arrived. It's time for you to make an appearance."
"Wait a bit longer, there's still one more person."
Just as she finished speaking, Leonard walked in with his long strides, "No need to wait, I'm here."
Bianca held Paxon's hand and walked in front, with Sebastian and Leonard following behind.
The four of them were so stunning that all the guests couldn't help but exclaim.
The banquet was hosted by the Fourth Prince of the palace, whom Bianca called uncle.
The Fourth Prince walked up to Bianca and said with a smile, "Bianca, we uncles have picked a few noble heirs for you. They'll introduce themselves to you one by one. You can tell me who you think is suitable."
Bianca's face showed no emotion. She had known this day would come.
Whether it came sooner or later, it made no difference.
It was a political marriage; she wasn't naive enough to believe she'd find true love.
Bianca smiled slightly, "Thank you, Uncle. Let's begin."
She sat in the main seat, holding Paxon, with Sebastian and Leonard on either side.
Like two guardians.
Sebastian was now the president of ZERO Corporation, which controlled Snowpeakia's economic lifeline and had dealings with all major families.
Guise Group was the leader in the pharmaceutical industry.
With these two groups protecting Bianca, no one dared to act out in front of her.
Paxon ate while watching the nobles come in with his bright eyes.
They were all dressed formally.
Their actions were gentlemanly and noble.
When they stood next to Bianca to introduce themselves, they almost detailed every hair on their bodies.
Though they were all distinguished and some were handsome, Bianca didn't like any of them.
Not only did she not like them, but she also felt a sense of disgust.
She thought if she had to spend her life with them, it would be miserable.
Sebastian noticed her feelings and whispered in her ear, "If you don't like them, you don't have to choose. With Leo and me, no one can force you. We don't want you to spend your life with someone you don't like."
Bianca smiled bitterly, "I'll have to choose eventually. These are the suitable nobles of Snowpeakia. The sooner I choose, the sooner I can relax."
"But you don't like any of them. How can you spend your life with them?"
"Do you want me to find a man who loves me like you love Joyce? I've never hoped for that in my life."
"Bianca, you sacrificed your freedom for the Winters Family. We don't want to see you unhappy in marriage. If you don't like these men, we can look for a marriage alliance with another country. I'll find someone you're satisfied with."
Bianca shook her head with a smile, "No need. I've already chosen. I think the Edward Family's heir is good. I'll try dating him."
Just as she was about to whisper to the Fourth Prince, the banquet hall doors were pushed open.
A tall, handsome man appeared at the entrance.
The man wore a black suit, with broad shoulders and long legs.
His handsome face was covered by a golden mask.
Even so, his flawless aura couldn't be hidden.
Seeing this man, Bianca's heart skipped a beat.
