Charlotte’s words sounded like consolation, but they also extinguished the hopes of these young men.
They thought that they might have a chance with the beautiful princess, but it turned out that the long-lost princess was already married.
How could they not be disappointed?
Only then did they remember Charlotte.
The young men approached Charlotte, hoping to invite her to dance.
“Your Highness, may I have the honor of inviting you to dance with me?”
The same scene unfolded before Charlotte. She smiled at the crowd as if she were about to select one of them.
The young men fixed their hopeful gazes on her, but she suddenly withdrew her hand and said, “I’m sorry, everyone, but I’ve also found myself a dance partner.”
With that, she went around the group of bachelors and walked away.
Were they kidding? These men only approached her after getting rejected. Did they think she would be so easily deceived?
If Lucy did not want them, neither did Charlotte.
Besides, Charlotte had long spotted the person she wanted to dance with.
She smiled and walked toward Cillian. The last time she saw him was when the foreign dignitaries entered the palace.
She wondered if Cillian remembered her. If he did and had feelings for her, she could ask for her parents’ blessings to marry him.
Cillian was so focused on Lucy and Matthew dancing that he barely noticed Charlotte. It was not until he heard a sweet voice by his ear that he snapped out of his trance.
“Cillian, do you have someone to dance with?”
