Charlotte was the one to me for this. She was always so bitter, thinking that the entire world was against her. It was the aftermath of the many sins she hadmitted, so if anyone was to me, it was her.


    Lucy almost poked her fingers at Charlotte''s forehead, but she held back as they were standing at the corner of the staircase between two floors. It might be secluded, but if anyone were to pass by, they would definitely notice the tension between them. That would only worsen the situation.


    "I don''t want to waste my time on you. Move!"


    Lucy was one step away from stepping on Charlotte''s feet. Charlotte refused to let go of her, so Lucy grabbed her arm, making her cry out in pain. "Lucy, you..."


    Before Charlotte could do anything, Lucy sessfully shook off her hand and fled the scene.


    Lucy secretly hoped that Charlotte would not follow her, or she would have to forget about talking to Koven today.


    Fortunately, Lucy was wearing low-heeled shoes today, so running was not an issue.


    Once she got to Koven''s private waiting room, Lucy heard shouting from outside the door.


    "My career as a designer is ruined!"


    Koven must have broken some things because all she heard after were crashing noises.


    "Do you think I wanted things to turn out like this? Do you know what she used to threaten me?"


    Lucy was hesitating whether to open the door when suddenly, the door flew open.


    "Who''s there?"


    Koven roared angrily, evidently in an extremely bad mood as he did not even care who was outside.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    When Koven saw the woman standing at the door, he realized that she looked somewhat familiar. Then, he remembered that she was Lucy, a princess of Charleston and the wife of Leon Corporation''s CEO.


    "...Hello."


    While Lucy was hesitating whether to knock and enter, Koven already heard her outside the door.


    However, Koven continued venting on the phone.


    "I understand... The next time I encounter someone like that, I''ll just keep my distance. I won''t evere back to this country. I''ll hang up now. Someone''s here."


    Realizing his outburst, Koven quickly hung up and apologized to Lucy, "I''m sorry. I was in a bad mood and talking on the phone. Please forgive me." "It''s okay." Lucy shrugged, reassuring him that she was not bothered by it.


    "I know what''s on your mind, so I understand."


    With a long face, Koven was unsure of what to say.


    Koven''s appearance was quite entric because his style was


    one-of-a-kind, which others


    find hard to ept. However, judging by his face alone, he actually a decently handsom man.

    "I know you. You''re the princess of Charleston... May I know why you''vee to see me?"


    Koven was genuinely afraid of the royal family. If they were to use his career to threaten him again, he might just escape this ce. Seeing how guarded Koven was, Lucy reassured him, "Koven, I''m not here for business. I just have some questions I''d like to ask you."
