Chapter 554 Eloping with Me
If Smith had said this before, Bianca might have believed him.
But after hearing what Eva said earlier, she was wide awake now.
Smith wasn't interested in her as a person; he was interested in the throne.
It didn't matter who sat on that throne; he would treat them the same way.
Thinking of this, Bianca's lips curved into a faint smile.
Her voice was calm and emotionless, "We don't need love between us. As long as you behave yourself, you won't lose your title as prince. Just remember that."
With that, she stood up and left.
Her words clearly told Smith that he didn't need to pretend to be deeply in love to keep his position. He just needed to be a dutiful prince.
Smith cursed Eva harshly in his mind.
If it weren't for her meddling, the spark of intimacy between him and Bianca wouldn't have been extinguished so quickly.
He immediately got up and followed her. "Bianca, let me take you for a walk in the garden."
Without turning her head, Bianca replied, "No need. I want to rest. I have a meeting this afternoon."
Watching her leave, Smith clenched his fist.
His assistant quickly approached and asked, "Her Majesty seems upset."
"I'm not stupid. I can see that myself."
The assistant didn't dare to say another word.
He watched as Smith lit a cigarette and took several deep drags.
The trust he had just built with Bianca was completely ruined by Eva.
He had hoped to awaken Bianca's desire for love, but now everything was back to square one.
Just then, his phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, he immediately answered.
A young voice came from the other end: "Uncle, are you busy?"
Smith's expression softened, and he smiled. "No, what's up?"
"Can you take me to Disneyland? Orla is at school, and Uncle Leonard, that unreliable guy, said he would take me, but he has meetings one after another. He left me alone in the office to play with a robot. I'm so lonely."
Hearing this, Smith immediately said, "Wait for me. I'll come get you right away."
Paxon jumped up on the couch. "Great! Uncle, I love you so much. Don't worry, I'll help you win over Auntie."
After hanging up, Paxon hopped off the couch and started packing his little backpack. He told the robot, "Tell Uncle Leonard I'm running away from home because he's been neglecting me!"
In the middle of a meeting, Leonard's phone suddenly received a signal.
"Paxon is running away from home. Master, come quickly."
Leonard immediately paused the meeting and returned to his office.
As soon as he entered, he saw Paxon with his backpack, ready to leave.
He bent down, picked him up, and kissed him on the cheek. "I'll finish my meeting soon, and then I'll take you out to play, okay?"
Paxon turned his head away haughtily. "I don't believe you. You said the same thing this morning, and you still haven't had time for me. I'm going to find Auntie. I'm not playing with you anymore."
"Your aunt is even busier than I am. She doesn't have time for you."
"But I have Uncle Smith. He's way better than you. He said he'd take me to Disneyland."
Leonard looked at him in disbelief. "You called him?"
"Of course."
"Who gave you his number?"
Paxon pouted. "I saw Auntie call him once, so I remembered it."
Leonard laughed and pinched his cheek. "You got a photographic memory? I think I'm starting to like you more and more."
As they were talking, the assistant came in to report. "Mr. Guise, Mr. William is here to pick up Paxon."
"Let him in."
Seeing Smith walk in, Paxon immediately ran to him.
He called out affectionately, "Uncle, I missed you so much."
Smith bent down, picked him up, and kissed his cheek. "I got tickets for tonight. I'll take you and your aunt to Disneyland. How about that?"
Hearing that his aunt would be there too, Paxon nodded enthusiastically. "Great! Uncle, you're the best. You deserve to have a wife."
Leonard laughed and gave him a light smack on the butt. "You little rascal. Didn't you say I was the best yesterday?"
Paxon clung to Smith's neck and waved at Leonard. "Uncle Leonard, I'm leaving with Uncle. You can be lonely by yourself. And don't call me; I'm busy."
Leonard chuckled. "Busy with what? Eating and playing?"
"Of course, I have to help Uncle win over Auntie."
Everyone laughed at his words.
Bianca had been meeting with a foreign prime minister, and it was already past five in the afternoon when the meeting ended.
She felt completely exhausted.
She wanted nothing more than to take a hot bath and then sleep.
As she pushed open her bedroom door, she saw a little boy lying on her bed, playing a game with his butt in the air.
Her mood instantly brightened.
Bianca quietly walked over to Paxon, pinched his little ear, and asked with a smile, "Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"
Paxon was startled by the sudden voice and fell onto the bed.
He blinked his big eyes at Bianca. "Because I wanted to surprise you."
Bianca kissed his chubby cheek. "Alright, my little prince, where do you want to take me on our date?"
"Disneyland! I want to take you on Soarin' Over the World. It's so exciting."
Hearing this, Bianca frowned slightly. "Sweetie, I'm afraid I can't go with you. There are too many people there, and my identity isn't suitable. It could cause a commotion."
She was the queen of Snowpeakia and couldn't just appear in public.
Any appearance required bodyguards, which greatly restricted her movements, making the palace feel like a prison.
She felt like a bird trapped in a cage, always wanting to fly out.
Just then, Smith walked in, holding several masks.
He smiled and said, "I have a way to make sure no one recognizes you."
Bianca looked at the masks in his hand and understood what he meant.
She suddenly felt an urge to put on a mask and escape the palace.
Smith saw the desire in her eyes and walked over, gently placing a mask on her.
He said softly, "Put this on, and tonight, be my Snow White. Let's elope."
