My Evil Boy Toy

Chapter 76 - 76 - Title

Everyone was surprised. Cutting the finances of the people inside the palace has never been done before.

"If you looked at the report carefully, the finances alloted inside the palace tripled in the past years. For example, it says here that the princess' room was renovated and the cost was five million dollars. Don't you think it's too much? Did you handle the renovation, Emily?" He asked.

Emily shook her head and walked towards Jayden and looked at the report.

"What do you think?" Kyle asked her.

"Looking at the cost, it was too much. In this report, the materials used were not that expensive. It would probably just cost around one million dollars." Emily answered.

"Who handles the finance and budget of the palace?" Jayden asked.

"It's Prince Maurice, the king's nephew." George answered.

Prince Maurice is the son of grandpa's cousin Princess Meredith. It was said that he would be next in line to the throne if Kyle and I refused to take it.

"I hate to tell you this but there's something fishy going on in here. If you don't look at this report carefully, the people of Flousia will suffer." Jayden said in a serious tone.

"Are you saying that the king's nephew is doing something illegal?" One of the royal advisers asked. From his tone, I know he was trying to mock Jayden.

"Yes and I am one hundred percent sure about that." Jayden answered, firmly.

"Could you prove that? And what if you're wrong?" Another one asked.

I am getting anxious again. They don't trust Jayden since he's an outsider. He's maybe my fiance but he doesn't have any royal title at all.

"I have never been wrong when it comes to finances. I could pinpoint every detail that has been illegally taken out of the country's budget. I could even tell you where that money went."

The two royal advisers' eyes widened and their faces became nervous. They diverted their eyes and froze from their seats.

"Judging from your reaction, you were involved in this." Jayden blurted.

"How insolent! How dare you say that in front of His Majesty! You are an outsider and a nobody!" The first who mocked Jayden yelled.

Jayden smirked. He was calm and wasn't even insulted by the man's words.

"Enough!" Grandpa yelled then looked at Kyle.

Grandpa couldn't handle stress so I was worried for him. No one knew he's sick but the family. I haven't told Jayden about it either. If anyone in this room found out about it, the throne would be in danger.

"Jayden, will you be able to check and report what you find within this week? I know you would be busy because of your wedding but this matter is urgent." Kyle asked with his crown prince voice.

"Nah. I'll give it to you tomorrow night." He said with full confidence.

I exchanged glances with Emily. I was really worried for Jayden. I have never known how he actually works in Luke's company but I heard that the business net worth grew four times since he became the CEO.

"With all due respect Your Majesty, Your Highness, I don't think we could trust an outsider to handle the finances." The other man who mocked Jayden opposed it.

"Jayden was a friend of mine before she became Princess Margaret's fiance. I trust him." Kyle answered, looking at the men intensely.

"But according to Flousian law, only members of the royal family or people appointed by the royal family could check and investigate the reports. If someone found out about this, random people might ask to see those files as well." George said.

"Then I just need to bestow a title to Jayden." Grandpa suddenly blurted.

"But your majesty, they are not married yet." Another adviser said. He wasn't really opposed to Jayden, he was only telling what the law states.

"Then they just have to get married tomorrow." Kyle suggested.

I was shocked. How could we prepare for the wedding if it's tomorrow? I wanted it to be beautiful and perfect.

I looked at Jayden, he was also looking at me but he wasn't surprised or shocked. He was smiling at me.

"What do you think love?" He asked.

I pouted. I wanted to marry him as soon as possible and I really wanted it to be memorable but given the situation, I also have a duty as a princess to help the royal family.

I rushed towards him and sat on his lap, wrapping my arms around his neck. I saw the people inside the room was stunned. Kyle was shaking his head.

"Promise me we will have another wedding?" I asked.

He chuckled, giving me kisses on the lips.

"As you wish, my princess." He answered then pressed his lips again into mine.

"Can you stop it?" Kyle asked annoyed.

I glared at him which I know looks disrespectful to others. But we suddenly laughed at it when we saw the faces of the other royals.

"The crown prince and princess Margaret looks so close. And I think, the princess consort loves her very much. Young love is very admirable." One of the royal advisers said.

I smiled at him then I looked at Kyle as if asking him the name of the man who just spoke.

"This is the Duke of Larnwick, Edward." Kyle introduced him and I think he was about my brother's age.

"Nice to meet you, Princess, Mr.Richards or should I say Prince?" He smiled, greeting us with amusement.

Jayden laughed. He doesn't really like the title but I know he would accept it so he could marry me.

"So let's prepare for the wedding." Jayden said.

I frowned. Then he took out his phone and dialed a number.

"I need all the things I sent in your email by tonight. Tell Luke and the others that they need to be here tomorrow morning. The wedding has been moved." He said. Everyone was looking at him when he ended the call.

"Who's that?" I asked.

"My new secretary, Leon." He answered.

"Leon?" Me and Emily blurted in unison.

Leon was Alora's secretary before and he was also now the husband of Clarisse, Jayden's ex.

Jayden cupped my face and kissed me again.

"Yes. I want a male secretary so you won't get worried anymore. I don't want my wife to get anxious every time I go to work." He said, making my heart skipped a beat when he called me 'wife.'
