    "Theodore, you tell me to watch over things and that some important guest ising, but I don''t even know if that guest is a man or woman. Shouldn''t you at least give me some information about them?


    "I don''t want to get flustered and embarrass myself in front of someone I''m meeting for the first time."


    Lucy had a point, but Theodore seemed evasive and uninterested in the matter like he was only here because Juliana asked him to.


    Lucy had a hunch about who the guest was. While chatting with Theodore, the sound of car engines was heard from outside.


    The noise was a bit jarring, so out of curiosity, Lucy went out to look.


    She saw a vintage car parked at the entrance of the pce. The performance of vintage cars paled inparison to modern ones, but their valuey in their historical significance.


    Vintage cars were only owned by certain members of the royal family in Charleston because of their historical value, making them a rarity among the people.


    It seemed like the guest was a well-known figure in Charleston. Lucy felt her palms get mmy all of a sudden as it was her first time receiving such an important guest.


    The first person to step out of the vintage car was an elderly man leaning on a cane. Despite his white beard and hair, he looked spirited and lively, not at all like someone in their 60s or 70s.


    Emerging from the same car door was an elegant and poiseddy. She wore a long dress that was befitting a queen, though her dress was lighter in color and less intricately patterned.


    Lastly, a young woman stepped out of the car Lucy caught a glimpse of her attire and found her quite familiar. Suddenly, the image of Charlotte''s face and fashionstyle shed through her mind.


    Why did she look so familiar? Did she get fashion inspiration from Charlotte?Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    With the butler''s guidance, the driver of the vintage car drove the car to the underground parking lot while the three individuals entered the pce. Lucy hurriedly sat next to Theodore. “Theodore, the people you''ve been waiting for have arrived. Should I go upstairs to call Dad and Mom down?" Theodore nodded, indicating that he would greet the guests himself while Lucy fetched their parents.


    The young woman was none other than Annabe. Growing up in aristocratic circles, she was ustomed tovish feasts and fine silks, making her a typical noblewoman.


    Although her family''s influence was


    enough to make many envious,


    upon seeing the grandeur of Charleston''s royal pce for the first time, she felt that her home was incredibly small.


    The pride she had umted over the years disappeared in an instant.


    Initially, she had some prejudices against Charleston''s royal family, feeling that they were not worthy of her noble background.


    However, after seeing the


    magnificent pce, all of


    Annabe''s previous thoughts vanished Now, she wished to smoothly marry into the royal family


    of Charleston, believing that all her worries would be gone if she did.
