The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 446

Lavinia had always liked Charlotte. Now that Charlotte was officially her daughter-in-law, she was even happier, her eyes lighting up with warmth every time she looked at her.

“Lottie, if Anthony ever gives you a hard time, you come straight to me,” Lavinia said, giving Charlotte’s hand a gentle squeeze. “I’ll handle him for you. I’ll make sure my husband sets him straight.”

“Okay,” Charlotte replied softly.

She glanced up at Anthony, a quiet smile on her lips, finally feeling at ease.

Since they’d met, Lavinia hadn’t tried to dig into her past or ask any uncomfortable questions. Most of the time, she just reminded Anthony not to treat Charlotte badly.

His parents were truly good people. No wonder he turned out the way he did.

“Anthony, Patricia has arrived.”

A servant’s respectful voice floated in from the doorway. “She asked that you bring Charlotte to see her.”

Anthony nodded, then slipped his arm around Charlotte’s waist and pulled her gently closer. He looked at Lavinia. “Grandma’s here. I’ll take Lottie over now.”

“Alright, go on, go on.” Lavinia let go of Charlotte’s hand, still smiling at her with affection. “Lottie, you head over first. I’ll just change my clothes and join you in a bit.”

“Alright,” Charlotte said, nodding.

Just looking at Charlotte made Lavinia so happy. No wonder Anthony had fallen for her.

“Go on, sweetheart.” Lavinia gave her hand one last loving pat, then turned to Anthony with a serious look. “Lottie’s never been to one of our family parties before. Make sure you look after her, okay? Don’t let anything happen to her.”

Let anything happen to her? Honestly, it would be a miracle if Lottie didn’t end up getting someone else in trouble.

Anthony nodded, then reached up to fix her hair, making sure her face was mostly hidden before leading her out.

“Anthony, Charlotte, wait for me!”
