Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 802

Cordelia looked at Charlie. She knew what was happening.

Victoria was definitely extraordinary to have attained the royals' princess status.

Not only that, but she was also an heiress to the throne.

Cordelia usually did not like to be in contact with people of such a background, but she had to go since the princess had invited her.

"Charlie, help me get the stylist here," she instructed.

She must dress appropriately when meeting royalty.

The Irwins had stylists on-call as well.

After a while, the stylist brought everything that she needed. Cordelia was soon dressed up in a short-sleeved shirt and barrel skirt.

At tea time, Cordelia arrived at The Royal Garden on time.

The palace was sophisticated and majestic. There was even crushed gold mounted on the tiles, and the majesty of royalty was shown everywhere.

Although it was luxurious, it was unavoidable for Cordelia to feel the suppression as soon as she walked in.

Under the guards' guidance, she arrived in the garden in the south of the palace. Victoria was already waiting.

Cordelia knew how to greet her properly. She would have to follow the rules.

Victoria smiled at her and said politely, "There's no need for these formalities. Come sit next to me!"

Cordelia looked at the space next to her on the couch.

There was only a couch in the massive courtyard. Moreover, looking at the quality and pattern, it was clearly exclusive to Victoria.

Cordelia could not make any mistakes as the imperial bodyguards and maids watched. There were people of all kinds in the palace. As soon as she made a mistake, it would turn into terrible rumors that they would spread around.

She might even ruin the Irwins' reputation.

She smiled politely and took two steps back courteously, taking a seat on the rattan chair.

Victoria's eyes moved. She could not help but look at her again.

"There's no need for all these restraints, Ms. Irwin!" she said while smiling. "Let's just sit together and have a chat!"

Cordelia nodded in a neutral manner. "I can chat with you while sitting here. Also, I'm used to sitting in rattan chairs."

The former smiled and stopped persisting. She got the maids to serve fruit tea and snacks.

"I've been wanting to meet you, Ms. Irwin. You live up to your fame! Not only are you beautiful, but you're courteous too. I'm surprised!"

"You're too kind, Your Highness," said Cordelia. "It's what I should do."

"I heard from President Irwin that you're more used to people calling you Cordelia. Is that true?" Victoria leaned in while holding her chin with one hand. "You wouldn't mind that I call you by your name, right?"

"Of course not!"

Victoria smiled, got up to sit on the rattan chair beside Cordelia, and held her hand. "Cordelia, friends can call each other's names directly! I'll call you Cordelia, and you'll call me Victoria. How is that?" "Your Highness..."

Cordelia was stunned and retracted her hand silently.

The social class in Southeast Aciatic was strict. The royals were just being nice when they said that. Cordelia would appear to be rude if she took Victoria seriously.

She remembered what Charlie had said clearly. She had to be careful no matter what.

Cordelia straightened her body, wearing a courteous smile on her face. However, there was distance in her smile.

Victoria signaled her subordinate. Soon, someone brought an exquisite velvet box, and Victoria opened it before Cordelia.

Cordelia was stunned. It was a set of expensive jewelry in it. They were sparkling under the sun.

"This is Kashmir Sapphire. It's considered one of the most expensive precious stones in the world," Victoria said while smiling. "A princess from a neighboring country gave this to me, but I thought I should give this to someone I like.

"This sapphire doesn't suit me. You have fair skin. You'll definitely look beautiful in this!"

She placed the box on the table and pushed it forward. "Cordelia, this is a gift from me. Please accept it!"

Cordelia's heart was racing.
