Lucy almost threw up the water she was drinking.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
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.
That was why she had put on a vintage imperial princess dress she had prepared earlier when she heard Lucy was in the palace.
Juliana had custom-made this
specially for Charlotte and required dozens of tailors to put it together, This dress had her favorite pinkish, white lace sewn under the skirt She looked like a retro beauty who had just walked out of a painting when she put on the dress. Content

Charlotte had an air of noble elegance that Lucy could never compare to. Even if Lucy put on the same dress, she would never look as good as Charlotte.
Despite thinking that, Charlotte did not dare to say it out loud. She did not want anyone to find out what she really thought of Lucy.
"Lucy, you're here. Why didn't you come to visit me in my room? Are you distancing yourself from me because you haven't been back in a while?" Her words made Lucy frown.
It was not because Lucy did not want to see Charlotte, but because Charlotte harbored bad intentions that Lucy was aware of. However, Lucy decided to turn a blind eye to it and not talk about it. Content

If she really wanted to live in peace with Lucy and get along openly, Lucy was more than happy to do so.
However, it was always better to be careful with Charlotte.
Lucy could not get used to Charlotte's sudden change in attitude.
"It's not what you think. I just arrived at the palace and wanted to chat with Theodore."
Theodore's happy mood disappeared when he saw Charlotte. He looked like he had just swallowed a bug.
"It's been such a long time since Lulu came back to visit. Is there anything wrong with me wanting to chat with her?”
Theodore sounded angry and annoyed, and Charlotte recognized it from his tone immediately.
If it was possible, she did not want
to be there either, but Charlotte wanted to show off to Lucy and
Lucy aware of who was the real owner of this palace. Content belongs to noveldrama.org
