"I'm sure she feels like I stole her parents away from her. Of course, she doesn't like me.

"Now that we're both our parents' daughters, they love both of us equally. If we were to have a falling out, who would our parents side with? They would surely be very upset.

"If she doesn't like me, so be it. I'll just avoid her and accommodate her." Lucy was sharp-witted. How could she not notice that Charlotte did not like her? She just kept quiet all this tbecause she did not want to upset her parents.

As Lucy spoke with a heavy heart, Matthew embraced her tenderly, feeling a pang of sympathy. "My dear Lulu, you don't have to put up with her, you know? Besides, even if you accommodate her, there's no guarantee that she'll be nicer to you. I bet she'll even hope for your demise..." Before Matthew could finish, Lucy was shaken to her core. She looked at him with alarm and asked, "Matt, w- what do you mean by that?" Matthew sighed, caressing Lucy's cheek. "I think we were wrong before. None of us knew your true identity back then, so we assumed that you were targeted because they wanted to cafter me. But now, it seems like that might not be the case." Matthew had been suspicious of this ever since he learned about Lucy's true identity.

He had always protected and concealed Lucy well, so it did not make sense for those assassins to be so certain that Lucy was that important to him.

Not to mention, after holding Lucy's fake funeral, he had seemingly been in a state of desolation for a long time. Instead of taking advantage of his vulnerability, the assassins disappeared without a trace, making it seem like they were only after Lucy all this time.

His mind had been all over the place during his investigation, but now that Lucy's identity had been revealed, everything suddenly becclear to him.

"I think it's likely that after the king and queen found out that you were their little princess, speople didn't want you to return to the palace. That's why they sent assassins to kill you." As for who would benefit most from Lucy's death, the answer was obvious. Charlotte's behavior today had confirmed his suspicions.

Matthew had practically uncovered the truth with his deduction, but Lucy could not bring herself to believe it. "Matt, are you... saying that Princess Charlotte wants to kill me? How could that be? No matter how you look at it, she's just a spoiled little girl. How could she have such evil intentions? "Even if I return to the palace, she'd still be a princess. It wouldn't be worth taking such a big risk to go after me, don't you think so?" Lucy insisted, unable to believe that a woman as delicate as a flower would want to kill her.

As of right now, she was still living in a pristine ivory tower. She was naive enough to believe that there were no bad people in the world.

"That's just my speculation. I don't have any evidence, so it could be1her, e but it could also be someone else."

Matthew sighed, but he turned serious and warned Lucy, "Lucy, you need to understand that humans can be very evil'm telling you this so that you'll be more cautious of her. Whatever she asks you to do, you should think twice. If you're unsure, ask me.

"We must never harbor ill intentions, but we must always guard ourselves against others. It doesn't hurt to be cautious." Matthew always had her best interests at heart, so Lucy was convinced.

She solemnly nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Since you've already said so, I won't fully trust her." X
