Chapter 394
Even far away in Charleston, Matthew was famous. His name was known by everyone.
Charleston was a long way off and always clashing with Leon Corporation. However, once Matthew took over, Leon Corporation shot up like a rocket, leaving the Charleston royal family in the dust.
The Charleston royal family's capabilities were clearly inferior to Matthew of Leon Corporation.
At first, the Charleston royal family wanted to show they were better than Leon Corporation. However, after they saw what Matthew could do, they stopped trying. They ended up looking up to him with respect and fear.
Charlotte, who was part of the Charleston royal family, had heard a lot about that man. She was really curious about him, especially before she saw his picture.
Who was that guy who could stand up to a royal family with just company?
Charlotte had always pictured Matthew as an older guy, maybe in his 40s or 50s, with a big belly and just a few strands of hair left from working too hard-a typical middle-aged man.
However, when she saw his picture in a business magazine, she was surprised to find out he was actually really young.
Matthew was like the poster boy for being rich and good-looking. He had the kind of face that would make anyone stop and stare. His high cheekbones and sharp nose made his features stand out.
His eyes were special too-almond-shaped, which was not very common. Charlotte thought that even a simple blink from him seemed like he was flirting. Underneath his prominent nose were thin lips, and he always looked cool and distant in front of others.
Matthew's tall and striking figure made him stand out like a sore thumb in any crowd. It was impossible not to notice him.
Charlotte was hooked from the moment she saw his photo.
She even dreamed that one day he would live in a palace.
However, life has a funny way of surprising her-Matthew turned out to be her sister's husband.
How ironic was that? Watching Lucy
was
talk about Matthew with such joy made Charlotte burn with jealousy Lucy had become the person Charlotte just could not stand, the one she felt she had to get rid of to ever be happy. Content belongs to noveldrama.org
Was she supposed to just watch Lucy show off her perfect life with Matthew right in front of her? No way!
Charlotte was determined not to let that happen.
From that day on, there would be only one princess in the palace, and only one person could stand by Matthew's side. That person would be her, not Lucy.
She knew Lucy was no easy rival, especially with Matthew on her side. She had to come up with a clever trick to make Lucy back off for good and stop reaching for what was hers. Content belongs to noveldrama.org

However, for then, in front of everyone, Charlotte had to keep her composure.
"Lucy, I've got this pretty dress I picked out just for you," Charlotte said with a hopeful twinkle in her eye.
"You haven't been back to the palace lately, so it's just been sitting in may closet collecting dust. Why don't you come and see it? I'd love to give it to you. Please, don't waste my kindness!" Content belongs to noveldrama.org
She was worried Lucy might say no, so she added a line that made her sound really sad.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Lucy could tell Charlotte was up to no good, but she did not want to upset her mother, so she played along.
"Sure, I'll come and have a look with you."
