CHAPTER 21
Count Byron and Charlotte decided to stay at the party since they don't want to be rude to the Crown Prince who invited their family to this party. Since most of the noble families are gathered at this party, the Count takes this chance to introduce his daughter to everyone. No one in this party tries to ridicule or joked about Count Byron's enthusiasm tonight knowing the things he did in the past for his missing daughter. Instead, they helped him by being kind to Charlotte and inviting her to their tea parties.Charlotte easily communicated with these people, especially with the madams and their daughters. Many of them noticed that she has good etiquette and manners. It is only a few months since Lady Charlotte has returned to her family. Because of it, many people made assumptions about themselves.Some are thinking that her parents gave Charlotte a good etiquette teacher and she is an excellent and fast learner. The others are thinking that Charlotte probably spent sleepless nights

CHAPTER 22
When the Countess realized what she had done, Charlotte was already looking at her as if nothing happened. She did not even change the expression on her face too. Countess Rosalyn will think the slap she did is not painful if not for the claw marks that were left on Charlotte's cheek. The Countess gasps in surprise to see that it is also bleeding."C-Charlotte, please let me explain. It is not my intention—""Are we done now?" Charlotte asked. "Can I now go back to my room?""B-But your wounds—""You don't have to be concerned about it." The Countess's hand that is about to hold her daughter has stopped because of those words. She nervously looks at Charlotte who has a cold expression on her face. The vigor she had while interrogating her eldest daughter has completely vanished. It is now replaced with nervousness and worry for Charlotte.The scratch that she did on Charlotte's cheek is probably deeper than expected. It is because Countess Rosalyn can see her blood is slowly dripping

CHAPTER 23
After that night, the atmosphere around the White family is both awkward and suffocating. All of their servants can feel it and no one dares to talk about what happened between them for fear of getting reprimanded or fired. They are all aware that the Count is too sensitive when it comes to his eldest daughter. The one who feels more awkward above all is Countess Rosalyn. It is because she finally learned what happened between her two daughters and the royal twin siblings. It was the Count who told her everything she has to know. Her husband explained that it was Roselyn who caused that incident and Charlotte happened to be nearby and helped her 'favorite child' at that time. Because of it, Countess Rosalyn can't help but feel guilty and horrified at the same time.She feels guilty for putting all the blame on Charlotte without asking for her explanation. Countess Rosalyn was controlled by her anger when she heard that Roselyn went home crying and heard Charlotte's name from her gibb

CHAPTER 24
"Are they still following us?" "No, my lady. Sir Lance had already dealt with them.""Hmm. That's good." Since the people who were following them are no longer around, Charlotte decided to come out of the shop that she entered and continue patrolling the plaza in secret. Earlier, she quickly noticed that a few men were following them in secret. Charlotte thought those were their enemies and they found out about her identity. But after observing their movements, she quickly discovered those men are just ordinary goons that can be found in dark alleys or slums.They are probably attracted to her pouch since it has sapphire stones on its lock. Aside from it, she only has a maid and one knight to accompany her in this huge place. Although they have already tightened their security in the empire to prevent crimes from happening, some people are still hard-headed and try to do their bad habits repeatedly.When Sir Lance returns, he quietly reported that he already dealt with those goons a

“I see. You have a pleasant name, Riva.”“Thank you! Can I also know your name, my lady?”“You can just call me Charlotte.”“Okay! Thank you once again, Lady Charlotte! I hope we can see you again next time!”“Hmm. You should go back to your parents now.”“Oh…”Riva, the young boy, lowers her head a little but he quickly looks up and smiles brightly at her.“Then I will go now.”After Riva bows his head in front of Charlotte, he turns around to go back to his parents. But as he did, Charlotte’s expression changed a little. Her eyes are focused on Riva and the little boy who are still busy collecting money from the people who watched their show earlier. Soon, Charlotte called Annie and ask her to come closer.“What is it, my lady?” Annie quietly asked.“Send someone to monitor their movements and tell them to report immediately if they noticed something wrong.” Charlotte replied without looking back at her maid.“Is there something wrong with them?”Charlotte did not reply to it, but h

CHAPTER 26
By just looking at her appearance, that young lady obviously belongs to a rich noble house. But what about it? If they become successful in kidnapping her without leaving any witnesses, they will still gain a lot. Not to mention, that young lady has a beautiful face and a good body. Those sick old men will surely bid a lot of money just to buy that young lady and put her on their bed. But after seeing how she defeated his friend, the man suddenly has doubts in his chest. Is she really an ordinary lady? What if they messed up on the wrong person this time?"Who are you?!" He asked again. "Is it important for you to know who am I?" Charlotte asked him back. "Do you really want to feel regret touching me once you know my identity and get inside the prison?""Shut up! Just answer my damn question!"He cannot calm himself down. The longer he sees that young lady acting calm and collected, the more he feels uneasy and nervous. He really feels like this young lady is acting too mature for

CHAPTER 27
While he was in deep thought, the other man starts attacking General Rovira. The female General tried to deflect his attacks but the sword in her hand flew away. With no weapon in her hand, General Rovira started moving around to avoid his attacks. Her concentration is still obvious in her eyes.Before she can be hurt, General Aster finally stepped out from his hiding place and made a huge slice on the man's back. He only gave him a flesh wound, but it is enough to let him bleed a lot and lose his strength. He still needs him to be alive so that everyone can see the faces of those people who dare to hurt the civilians.Before General Aster can inquire more, the little boy who is hiding in the corner runs towards General Rovira and hugs her waist. He was about to pull the child away but then she stops him. The female General lowers herself until her eyes meet with the little boy's gaze."B-Big sister, sorry... Sorry for bringing a problem to you..." The little boy cried. Big, fat tear

CHAPTER 28
After making sure that Riva's family is now safe, General Rovira ordered the Nocturnus Knights who were patrolling at that time to bring them to an inn with good service and security so they can rest well tonight. All of their expenses will be put on her tab. She also ordered one knight on their side to inform anyone who ignores or looks down on them that they are under her protection and supervision. General Rovira's name is already well-known in their empire and no one dares to openly ignore her or pretend that she doesn't exist.Riva tries to refuse her kindness. He told her that his family is aware of the danger they can face since someone warned them about it a week ago. He also added that it was they who became at ease and lower their guards. But General Rovira is having none of it. She told them the things that happened to them tonight were not their fault. It was they who failed them since they got hurt and almost got kidnapped by those criminals. The female General apologize

CHAPTER 29
After making sure that no one has followed her, Charlotte enters a dark alley for a moment. And when she comes out, her disguises are already gone after removing the ring on her finger. Before leaving the dark alley, she looks around first to double check her surroundings before blending with the people in the plaza. Some of them are looking in her direction seeing her dirty and torn dress but Charlotte paid them no mind. Charlotte goes straight to the fountain where Annie and Sir Lance are already waiting for her. Upon seeing her master, Annie quickly approached Charlotte and put the cloak she was holding around her body. This will help cover the mess on the dress she's wearing. After that, Sir Lance informed her that he already brought a carriage that she can use to go home tonight. Nodding her head, Charlotte enters the carriage and lets out a soft sigh once her back feels the soft foam placed on the backrest of the seat inside."Are you alright, my lady?" Annie asked once the carr

CHAPTER 30
"General Commander... General Valentine... Ugh, General Valentine...?"Rovira slowly blinks her eyes before she focused on Sir Gabriel who is now calling to get her attention. He is holding a stack of papers in his hands. Looking at his face, Rovira can also see a few bruises on his face. Noticing that his General Commander is looking at him, Sir Gabriel stands up straight and waits for his superior to speak.Right now, General Rovira is in her office to finish a few documents that she left unattended for several days. Sir Gabriel is with her to help. After working for three hours straight, they already finished two-thirds of the documents on her desk. It was because Rovira had been working on these documents in secret while she was in the White mansion as Lady Charlotte.A lot of things happened since yesterday. Last night, Countess Rosalyn kept apologizing to her eldest daughter and asking for a second chance. Although Charlotte refused to show her emotions too much, it doesn't mean
