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 dy 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 L''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 aplice!"


    Juliana stared at L with a lethal gaze. When it came to the maids, she was even less lenient.


    L was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, trembling all over. She lowered her head and pleaded for forgiveness, "Forgive me, Your Majesty! It was the princess who gave me the orders. I-I couldn''t disobey the princess'' orders!"


    In reality, she was only willing to do things for Charlotte because she was greedy for the rewards Charlotte gave her.


    Now that Charlotte had been punished, L could no longer escape punishment herself. She might as well push the me onto Charlotte and im that she was forced to do those things.


    She was just a mere maid, so it made sense that she could not disobey her master''s orders.


    L was counting on this excuse to get her out of trouble.


    However, Juliana snorted. "How dare you stille up with excuses? If you can''t take care of the princess properly, there''s no need for you to continue. Go receive 20shes and wash clothes in theundry room."


    L did not expect such a heavy punishment from Juliana. The clothes worn by the royal family ê were all made of silk and could only be washed by hand, which made theundry room the most tiring and demanding ce in the pce.


    Only maids whomitted serious offenses were punished by being sent to theundry room, and they were not released easily.


    After what she had done, she should


    have been expelled from the pce. With the money Charlotte rewarded


    her, she could have lived a


    ove


    comfortable life.


    Instead of kicking her out of the pce, Juliana sent her to ve away in theundry room for decades.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    No way. That could not happen. L panicked and quickly begged Juliana for mercy, but Juliana was not going to give her a chance.


    "Why aren''t you going to get your punishment? Do you want me to give you an even harsher one?"


    "No, Your Majesty. I''m sorry. I''ll go receive my punishment right away!"


    L dared not dilly-dally any longer and hurried off to find the pce administrator''s wife to receive her punishment.


    Now that justice had been served, Arthur and Juliana looked apologetically at Lucy.


    "We''re sorry you had to go through this, Lucy. We had no idea your sister had such intentions."


    If it were not for Velda''s intelligence, they would have wrongly used her today.


    Their daughter had suffered so much outside, only toe back and endure more injustice. They felt like such useless parents.


    Both of them felt guilty and heartbroken.


    Lucy simply smiled andforted


    them, "Dad, Mom, don''t me yourselves. It''s not like you''re being biased. You''ve already punished my sister, so I haven''t suffered any injustice at all."


    Even though Charlotte brought this upon herself, Arthur and Juliana had to be in pain to make such a decision. How could Lucy be angry at them?
