Chapter 361

"I’m not so sure about that. What if she runs off and complains to your biological parents, saying we bullied her? What do we do then?” Chelsea spoke up.Lucy shook her head and said, “I don’t think so. She’s already in the wrong for sneaking out without permission, so she doesn’t even have the right to complain in the first place. She won’t be able to win the argument.”“Alright, alright. Let’s not think about it anymore. Now that the pest is gone, let’s enjoy our meal.”Lucy’s reasoning made sense, so Chelsea stopped dwelling on it. The group happily resumed their lunch.Charlotte may have left the hall, but she did not leave immediately. She glared hatefully at the dining hall from outside while her maid approached her.“Your Highness…”Charlotte turned to her and smiled slyly as she watched the four people inside chatting away happily.“Have you done the thing I asked you to take care of?”The maid nodded, and Charlotte smirked, gazing coldly into the hall as she thought, ‘

Before Lucy could process what was happening, Charlotte rushed into the dining hall with Lola.“I see. I was wondering why you were so eager to kick me out. It turns out that it’s because you’re afraid that I’ll catch you damaging the crown Mom and Dad gave you!”Charlotte wasted no time in putting the blame on Lucy. Without giving anyone a chance to respond, she instructed Lola, “Hurry and fetch the King and Queen. Tell them what happened.”“Yes, Your Highness!” Lola, her maid, nodded and hastily dashed out.Lucy was speechless. She finally understood what exactly Charlotte was up to.“When did you see me damaging the crown? Shouldn’t you be grounded right now? Why haven’t you left yet? Oh, I see. You were waiting outside specifically for this.”Lucy glared at her coldly. If this was how she wanted to play the game, Lucy saw no need to be polite to her anymore.Ignoring Lucy’s sarcasm, Charlotte said triumphantly, “I saw it with my own two eyes. Do you even know what the crown

There were so many crowns in the palace, and Lucy alone had two. Her parents would not reprimand her over a single crown, right?As they confronted each other, Lola quickly summoned Arthur and Juliana.Following Charlotte’s instructions, Lola told them, “Your Majesties, Princess Charlotte and Princess Velda are arguing because Princess Charlotte saw Princess Velda damaging the coronation crown. "Princess Charlotte advised Princess Velda not to because of the crown’s importance, but Princess Velda argued that it was just a crown and that it did not matter whether it was damaged or not. "Her Highness told Princess Charlotte not to meddle in her business, so they started arguing.”What?! Arthur was furious, so when they arrived, the first thing he did upon seeing Lucy was shout at her, “Velda, what are you doing?”Lucy was taken aback by his shouting.Charlotte smirked and immediately put on a tearful face, crying to Arthur and Juliana, “Dad, Mom, I tried to tell her. I… I couldn

Lola refused to admit it, and Charlotte glanced at Lucy smugly. “See, Lola didn’t tell her to do it at all. I have no idea why you wanted to damage the crown. Perhaps you were just reckless because you failed to realize the value of the crown.”Value? What value? Lucy was bewildered, but Arthur and Juliana were looking at her seriously.Charlotte’s words were convincing enough that they were starting to believe her.“Dad, Mom, don’t be too harsh on my sister. I believe that she was just being playful. Perhaps she was careless because she didn’t know the significance of the crown as the token of her fief.”Her seemingly kind words only added fuel to the fire.Arthur's and Juliana's faces turned cold as they looked at Lucy.“Velda, do you have anything else to say? Do you realize that this crown represents your fief?”Instead of blaming Lucy directly, Juliana explained the importance of the crown, “Without this crown, you won't be able to govern your fief. It’s a symbol of your st

"See? Not only has the sapphire fallen, but there are also several missing diamonds and bent parts.”While Lucy pointed out the flaws, Matthew and the others quickly understood what she was getting at. However, Arthur and Juliana were still puzzled.“We see these things, but what’s the problem? What are you trying to say? Don’t waste everyone’s time!”Charlotte looked at Lucy with annoyance, thinking that Lucy was just beating about the bush to stall her demise.“Why are you in a rush? My point is that if I had damaged the crown here, there should be traces of the missing diamonds in the box or on the floor. But there aren’t any."You guys can get people to search every corner of the dining hall to see if there are any traces of the missing diamonds.”Lucy simply smiled at Charlotte.She had noticed earlier that when she took the crown out of the box, only the sapphire had fallen. There were no diamonds in the box either.Charlotte’s mind was buzzing. Damn it, how could she hav

"Alright, I’ll contact the forensic experts…”Before Arthur finished his sentence, Charlotte hurriedly stopped him and pleaded, “No, Dad. You can’t bring in the forensic experts!”“Why not? There shouldn’t be any reason not to. If you didn’t touch the crown, your fingerprints won't be found. Why are you so nervous?”Lucy spoke icily, and everyone looked at Charlotte with cold eyes too.Charlotte could not come up with an excuse for some time, so she stammered, “I-It’ll turn into a scandal. We’re the royal family. We can’t air our dirty laundry in public…”“Scandal? What scandal? We’re just trying to uncover the truth. Why is it suddenly a scandal?” Matthew chuckled.Arthur and Juliana stared at Charlotte sternly. If they still had not figured out that Charlotte was framing Lucy at this point, they would simply be feigning ignorance.“Charlotte, how could you become like this? You used such tactics to frame your sister! Why did you do this? You’ve greatly disappointed me,” Julian

The maids quickly took Charlotte away.Reluctant to leave, Charlotte continued to cry out, “No, Dad, Mom, you can’t do this to me! I’m sorry. I’ll change. You can’t… You can’t take away my fief.”The maids were still somewhat hesitant until Juliana said, “Take her away!”Although it pained her greatly, she could not afford to be lenient anymore. The maids dared not delay any longer, so they quickly took Charlotte away.Seeing as her cries and repentances were in vain, she eventually turned them into curses. “You’re all liars! You don’t love me. You only love Lucy. I hate her, I hate her!”Arthur and Juliana tried their best to ignore what she said.After Charlotte was taken back to her own room and was held in confinement, it was Lola’s turn to be berated.“I sent you to take care of the princess, and this is how you take care of her? Instead of advising her when she’s doing something wrong, you act as an accomplice!”Juliana stared at Lola with a lethal gaze. When it came to t

Chapter 368

Lucy was actually quite content with how Arthur and Juliana handled everything.At least, the grievances and frustrations she felt a few days ago were completely gone now, so Lucy was satisfied.However, Arthur and Juliana still felt sorry for Lucy, so they went out of their way to be kind to her. It was to the point that it felt overwhelming.After that day, they hired a craftsman to help repair her crown. The meeting with the fief’s mayor was delayed because of the damaged crown.Meanwhile, Chelsea and Hugh followed Lucy and Matthew to visit their new home.It had been a while since the pair of best friends last saw each other, and they had a lot to catch up on. They were practically glued to each other every day.Only after Chelsea brought up the unsightly couple did she learn that Lucy had lost her memory and forgotten about them.She was glad that Lucy had forgotten those painful memories, so Chelsea did not bring up the Quinns again.Several days passed like this, and Mat

If Lucy and Chelsea were to live together, Matthew and Hugh would be neglected. Having to spend lonely nights was absolute torture, but they could not just tell them that.Hugh racked his brain, trying to come up with an excuse. He suddenly had an idea.“Something came up at the company. Yes, that’s it. That’s what I was going to tell you. I haven’t been to the company the past few days, so some issues have occurred…”Unlike Matthew, it would be impossible for him to simply relocate his company headquarters to Charleston on a whim. Hugh decided to come up with a little lie, saying that his company was facing some problems.That way, he could resolve Chelsea’s desire to stay and take her back with him.In an attempt to pacify Lucy, Matthew followed Hugh’s lead and chimed in regretfully, “Yeah, Mr. Lincoln’s company is facing a major problem and is on the verge of bankruptcy. He didn’t want to worry you, Ms. King, so he has been keeping it to himself all this time.”Bankruptcy? Sin

Within half an hour, Chelsea and Hugh finished packing their luggage. Then, Lucy and Matthew escorted them to the plane.“Lulu, take care. I’ll come to see you again after Hugh and I take care of his company’s affairs.”Chelsea was reluctant to leave. She held Lucy and sulked, so Lucy comforted her with a smile, “I’ll take care of myself, and I’ll wait for you to come visit. If you don’t come, I’ll go to you.”After their affectionate moment, Chelsea and Hugh were about to board the plane when Matthew remarked, “Mr. Lincoln, don’t worry. If there’s anything your company needs help with, feel free to ask me. I’ll try my best to help you. Ms. King and my wife are best friends after all.”Matthew smirked, and Hugh almost choked, but he still had to thank him, “Thank you, Mr. Leon, but I can handle it.”Hugh cast Matthew a glance and smiled sarcastically before boarding the plane with Chelsea.Lucy and Matthew watched the plane take off and disappear into the distance before they wal
