That was a burn to Matthew. After Cillian confessed his feelings, all that was left for them to do was to get intimate. Why would Lucy and Matthew need to go upstairs?
“I was being stupid. Let’s go, Lulu. You’ve been so busy that you haven’t had anything to eat. The palace kitchen has prepared some supper. Do you want to have some?”
Lucy rubbed her empty stomach and nodded.
She was famished, but there was too much to do today. Not to mention the situation between Cillian and Yitty as well. She had her hands full and there was hardly enough time for rest. Even her empty stomach had to endure its hunger.
It was not until Matthew mentioned this that her stomach began growling.
Matthew burst out saying, “Looks like I know you really well. I even know when you get hungry.”
“Of course. You practically live in my heart and mind. What don’t you know about me?”
They joked with each other as they walked to the dining area that Juliana had arranged for them.
The Charleston palace was renowned for its grandeur. Only the internal staff knew that the palace had removed many of the complicated elements in the past ten years in order to practice minimalization and stop excessiveness.
An example would be cutting out materials for the foundation of the marbling.
This was an agreement between Juliana and Arthur as they wanted to be an example to the next generation in living a simple life.
However, it was not easy to make the transition from living luxuriously to a less excessive lifestyle, just like what was happening now.
