    As more tears streamed down Lucy''s face, she eventually could not hold back her sobs anymore. Matthew held her silently.


    After crying her heart out, Lucy lifted her head to look around the room. It was beautiful.


    The bed was soft, and the interior was warm and girly. It was everything she imagined a princess'' bedroom to be.


    It was evident that the people who decorated this room had so much love and care for the room''s owner.


    Although she was the victim, how could her mother chase after Charlotte after she shed a few tears and turned the situation against her?


    "Matt, do you think that my parents did all of this for me out of love, or is it just guilt? I don''t think I can tell the difference anymore," Lucy asked, staring ahead nkly.


    Matthew sighed deeply andforted her, "Don''t overthink it, wifey. Your parents love you. Charlotte just has a way with words.


    "The king and queen still have hope for her because they haven''t seen her true colors yet. No matter what happens, I''ll always be by your side." Matthew''s words effectively calmed Lucy down.


    Seizing the opportunity, Matthew timely suggested, "Wifey, let''s move out."


    "Move out? Why?"


    Lucy turned around and frowned at him confusedly. Everything was going well in the pce, so why move out?


    "Listen to me, wifey. The relocation of thepany''s headquarters has already begun, and I''ll be very busy in the near future, so I won''t be able to be by your side all the time.


    “In the pce, Princess Charlotte will be watching over you closely. With her persuasive tongue, I''m worried that without me here, you would fall for her schemes again. Like today, you might even end up getting framed by her.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.

    "Why don''t we move out? We can keep a distance from her. Once both sides have calmed down, maybe


    your parents will see her true colors more clearly. Besides, if you miss your parents, we can alwayse back to visit them."


    Matthew exined calmly, considering all aspects for Lucy.


    Lucy fell silent for a moment. She knew that Matthew''s words were sincere.


    Even if she was reluctant to admit it, she still had to face the fact that Charlotte held a significant spot in her parents'' hearts.


    Plus, she was no match for Charlotte''s eloquence. If they were to continue fighting, the ones who would ultimately be hurt would be her parents and her brother.


    This was not the oue she wanted. All she wished for was her parents and her brother''s happiness.


    Since she could not afford to

    provoke Charlotte, she might as well avoid her altogether. Aftering to this realization, she agreed with Matthew, "Alright then. Let''s tel Mom and Dad tomorrow that we''re moving out."


    With their decision made, they smiled at each other.


    ...


    On the other side of the pce, Charlotte returned to her room and immediately began packing her belongings.


    When Juliana rushed in and saw her, she was on the verge of copsing. She hurriedly eximed, “Charlotte, what are you doing? Are you really leaving?"


    Charlotte had tears streaming down her face. She was either deeply immersed in her act or genuinely venting her grievances.


    "Since both of you don''t believe me, what''s the point of me staying here?"
