Chapter 314: I Haven’t Heard You Tell a Story Yet!
Depressed and disappointed, Julia stopped in her tracks and looked at Claire and Sean’s back as they talked and laughed. She was so angry that she turned around and raised her hand to smash the wall
with force.
She was really pissed off!
But she couldn’t vent her anger to Claire or complain to her. It was so annoying.
Claire and Sean didn’t rush home, because there were only two hours left before Belle and Jon got out of school. They planned to have a cup of coffee and some desserts at a cafe near the school. When the time was up, they could go to pick up the children.
Julia was not in the mood to stay with them any longer, being a third wheel, so she went back alone.
Arriving at the cafe, Claire intentionally found a quiet corner position. It was not because she preferred a serene environment, but because she had some questions to ask Sean. Since Julia had been around just now, it was not convenient for her to start the conversation. Now that Julia had gone back, Claire wanted to ravel out the doubts in her heart.
She forked a small piece of cake and put it into her mouth. The sweet and sticky texture was to her
taste, which delighted her.
She stared at Sean sitting across the table and blinked her beautiful amber eyes, asking softly, “So, you’ve been on a business trip for a month in order to find that stuff of Lady Angela?”
Stuff…
Sean let out a low chuckle. The only person who could call a corpse stuff was Claire.
He did know that Claire wasn’t afraid of these things, but a woman saying it so easily would have
shocked any other man.
“Yes, it’s for that stuff.”
Sean purposely uttered the word “stuff” very heavily and looked at Claire with a smile on his face.
Claire knew what he was laughing at and hummed, “It is supposed to be stuff.”
Hearing Sean let out another laugh she nouted depressinely She didn’t want to dwell too much on the 1/3 Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Hearing Sean let out another laugh, she pouted depressingly. She didn’t want to dwell too much on the topic because she had more important ones to ask.
“Isn’t it desolate over there in Windton? There’s also a desert. Why was Lady Angela’s grandfather’s corpse there?” Claire voiced her doubts.
“It’s a bit of a long story,” Sean said lightly.
Seeing Claire’s small cake was almost finished, he beckoned for the waiter to order two more in different flavors.
Claire enjoyed being spoiled by him like this, but she wasn’t about to let him go about the questions. Biting down on her fork, she raised her eye and said, “I don’t mind listening to your story. It’s still early anyway.”
Sean pursed his lips hard, obviously not really wanting to talk about it. Claire grumbled again. “I haven’t heard you tell a story yet!”
Looking into her upset eyes, Sean felt his heart itchy. God knows the most upset person right now was him!
He really couldn’t wait to take Claire home and….

Sean shrugged, responding, “Because it’s said that the queen hid that scepter before she died…”
Seeing Claire about to ask another question, he let out a light laugh and continued, “At that time,
there was a revolt in that country. In the face of an unstable political statement and the risk of
being killed, the queen hid the scepter beforehand and then committed suicide.”
His words exactly answered Claire’s question. Upset, Claire raised her hand and touched the tip of her nose, remarking, “It’s hard to say who should be blamed, neither the rebels nor the queen. In the river of history, the renewal of dynasties is normal. No one can say who’s right and who’s wrong.”
At this moment, Claire understood the final end of that country and said, “The queen killed herself and hid the scepter, so the people who rebelled didn’t keep the country even though they got the power The reason why that country had been able to survive under the harsh conditions at that time should have a lot to do with that scepter, so the country was drowned in the desert after the queen hid the
scepter.”
Sean nodded. He had never doubted Claire’s intelligence.
He knew what she was going to ask next, so he said it himself.
“So, when the news came out, a lot of explorers wanted to go and find the scepter that the queen had hidden away. After all, such an arcane thing was able to make countless people or even countries fight
for it no matter for its historical value or the myths that are divorced from the science. It could be said a gigantic treasure.”
Claire realized, “So Lady Angela’s grandfather was one of the explorers, right?”
“Yes.”
Sean nodded, continuing, “But those were just rumors. Anyway, it happened a long time ago, and myths were added by the ancients in the course of history. Even though the explorers utilized advanced technology to enter into that underground ancient country, none of them came out alive because of the harsh environment and numerous dangers inside.”
Claire was scared by his words as her blood froze and got goosebumps on her skin.
This was really a case of people dying in pursuit of wealth!
Perhaps Lady Angela’s grandfather had traveled thousands of miles to return to his homeland thinking that he was a national and there should be many conveniences for him, but he didn’t expect that he would still die there..

Just thought of this, Claire suddenly felt something wrong. She looked at Sean with a bit of anxiety as she asked, “Then you headed for Windton and also went to that underground ancient country?”
Sean’s eyelids jumped hard. That was exactly the reason why he didn’t want to tell Claire.
