In fact, many people have always believed that Cather's mother was the driving force behind Cather's love with William. Although Diana was called the "Commoner Princess", it was actually a misunderstanding and should be translated as "The People's Princess".
This refers to Diana's closeness to the common people and her love by the British people.
Diana's father, Edward Spencer, was the eighth Earl Spencer of England, and her origin was not common.
Cather was truly a "commoner princess". She was born in a middle-class family in Berkshire, England.
Cather's father was originally a flight dispatcher for an airline, and later did business. Her mother Carol was a flight attendant and now does business in party supplies.
They invested a huge amount of money to let Cather receive aristocratic education since childhood. She attended St. Andrews Primary School and Marlborough School, and later studied art history at the University of St. Andrews.
It is said that Kate had been admitted to the University of Edinburgh in England, but after hearing that Prince William would go to the University of St. Andrews, she took a year off and repeated the exam to become William's classmate.
As for what Kate herself thought, Barron was not prepared to explore. Maybe she had resisted such an "arrangement", for example, she had other boyfriends in college and had sex with Barron's predecessor...
But now it seems that she still cares about becoming a princess.
"This is not the first time you have broken up. You should be familiar with many of William's practices. I can guarantee that you will become a princess and even a queen in the future, Cather."
Hearing Barron's words, Cather looked at him deeply:
"What do you want? What good will this do you?"
Seeing Cather's somewhat vigilant expression, Barron smiled and said:
"Don't be so nervous, Cather. Am I so utilitarian in your eyes? That's really sad."
"Then why do you..."
It must be said that at this time, although Cather did not have the noble temperament after becoming a princess, she was also very good in both figure and appearance - otherwise it would be impossible to tie William to her side like this.
Speaking of it, the first person I met when I came to this world was Cather, but the two of them did not really go through that process together. His "past" with Cather was a bit unworthy of the name.
Cather keenly noticed that Barron's eyes looking at her had changed subtly, and the woman's intuition made her a little nervous.
"Barron, you..."
As soon as she said this, she was pulled into his arms. Her struggle was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot for Barron...
"You have to understand that William is still at an age where he likes to play. When he realizes that he needs to take on more responsibilities, he will understand that you are the most suitable person to marry."
Barron said in Cather's ear:
"Now, just think of this as a vacation before you become a princess. Enjoy this moment. When you become a princess, you won't have such an easy time, Cather..."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, I promise you." As soon as Barron finished speaking, Cather stopped struggling. She leaned into Barron's arms and closed her eyes...
"
This is not a poison pill, Your Highness. It is much more noble."
The person who had afternoon tea with Barron today was Glenn Hammer, the current chairman of Reuters Founders AG. He took a sip of coffee and said to Barron:
"It is not used to prevent a business action, but to protect Reuters' operating principles."
Glenn Hammer's words were directed at the "golden equity" of Reuters Founders AG.
Glenn Hammer is the chairman of Reuters Founders AG.
He is a well-known Swedish entrepreneur who served as the president of Volvo. Now Glenn Hammer is more famous as the chairman of Aviva, the largest insurance company in the UK.
Barron met with him today because SEM Group increased its holdings of Reuters Group shares to 15%, which aroused the vigilance of Reuters Founders AG.
Barron hopes to persuade the trustees represented by Glenn Hammer to agree to let SEM Group complete the acquisition of Reuters Group.
Reuters Group once stated in its annual report:
"Restrictions on common stock interests and special voting rights of founder companies can be described as anti-takeover precautions. In this sense, these measures can prevent anyone from claiming control of Reuters Group."
Today, Reuters, the official British news agency owned by Reuters Group, has operating offices and 197 news bureaus in 94 countries and 200 cities around the world, providing news in 19 languages. Almost all major news media have subscribed to Reuters news. These
include CNN, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Yahoo, America Online and the British Broadcasting Corporation. ITV and Standard Newspaper Group under SEM Group are also customers of Reuters Group.
Reuters is also one of the world's three largest news agencies, including the Associated Press and Agence France-Presse.
At the same time, Reuters Group is also a well-known financial and economic information provider. The three giants that currently provide financial and news information to financial institutions and brokers are Bloomberg, Reuters Group and Thomson.
Among them, Reuters occupies 23% of the market share, second only to Bloomberg's 33% market share.
It is worth mentioning that in Barron's previous life, later this year, Thomson will propose to acquire Reuters and complete the merger of the two. The merged "Thomson-Reuters" Group will surpass Bloomberg News and have a 34% market share.
"Mr. Hammer, I also agree with the core principles of your Reuters Group. I believe you can know that I have always been committed to the fairness and respectability of the news media. For example, since SEM Group acquired The Independent and ITV, we have always kept this most important point in mind and have never made false and exaggerated reports."
Green Hammer did not refute Barron's words. He had to admit that what the Duke of England said was not too exaggerated. Compared with the News International Group, which is keen on attracting attention, SEM Group is already a very conscientious media.
Of course, this itself is also related to the fact that Barron does not need to make money through these media at all. Even when he needs to achieve some goals through the media he controls, those reports are completely true.
"And I can guarantee that after the completion of the acquisition of LuTou Group, you will still be given the power to supervise the operation of Reuters. My purpose of acquiring Reuters Group is actually the same as yours."
"Your Highness, I am very happy to know this. We are ensuring that Reuters Group can report impartially without any interference. If anyone can provide convincing reasons to show that they will abide by our principles on news reporting and act in accordance with these principles, then we will not block his subsequent acquisition; but if we think there is a threat, we will take action immediately."
At the end of the meeting between the two, Green Hammer said to Barron:
"In fact, we are very much looking forward to confirming your measures to abide by our principles."
