Lucy almost threw up the water she was drinking.
Theodore had always been authoritative and stern in public, but whenever he faced Lucy, there was a child-like side to him. Lucy often did not know how to react when he was that way.
“Don’t worry, Theodore. I’ll make sure to keep my promise. I’ll make sure to visit often. This is my home, after all! All my loved ones are here.”
The atmosphere between them was warm and loving, and the maids could not bear to interrupt them.
However, someone dropped by to spoil that atmosphere.
Charlotte appeared in front of them while holding on to her heavy skirt.
She had been having a good time eating and playing around upstairs in the palace when she found out from her maid that Lucy was back and spending a nice time with Theodore. Charlotte could not take it and she decided to see Lucy as well.
Charlotte felt pressured even when Lucy was not around.
Her parents would always mention her during conversation and even Theodore was the same.
This upset Charlotte greatly.
She was once the apple of their eyes, the one and only precious yet elegant princess. Lucy’s appearance had slowly taken all of that away from her.
Charlotte did not deserve that. What right does Lucy have to take everything away from her? Charlotte was the one who had grown up in this grand and extravagant palace. Everyone’s life circled around her. Why did everyone turn their backs against her the moment Lucy arrived? Why was everyone treating Charlotte so coldly now?
Even the maids sided with Lucy just because she gave them a little nice treatment. They would mention Lucy while working in the kitchen, living room, and even while they were cleaning.
Lucy was like a thorn in Charlotte’s heart that could not be pulled out.
