"What hurtful words are you referring to?”
Taken aback by Lucy’s response, Charlotte hesitated for a moment before smiling and saying, “T-The part where you accused me of accusing you…”
As Charlotte spoke, she suddenly felt something was wrong. Apologizing to Lucy meant acknowledging that she misunderstood Lucy, which also meant that she would be indirectly admitting that she had intended to harm Lucy.
W-What was happening? Why did she feel like something was off?
Charlotte found herself in a dilemma, but Lucy just chuckled and said, “Are you playing some kind of tongue twister game? You’re confusing me.
“Anyway, no matter what you did, I forgive you. You’re the king and queen's daughter, after all.”
Lucy brushed off the issue from yesterday. Regardless of what Charlotte said, in Lucy’s mind, she took it as an apology for hiring an assassin to kill her.
Her temporary forgiveness was also out of respect for Arthur and Juliana.
After breakfast, Matthew and Lucy returned to the room to prepare for the move.
There was not much to pack as they did not have many belongings in the palace.
Daily necessities were already prepared at Matthew’s castle, so Lucy only took a photo of her with Arthur and Juliana as well as the pillow she used to sleep on in the palace. She had left everything else untouched.
Meanwhile, Juliana was complaining to Arthur in their room about why he did not try harder to persuade Lucy to stay.
“Velda must be disappointed in us. How could you just agree to let her move out as soon as she brought it up? You even asked her when she was leaving. You owe me my Velda.”
Juliana pounded on Arthur’s shoulder in frustration. Arthur felt helpless too. It was not like he forced Velda to leave. It was her decision, so why was he to blame?
