“Sir Louis has always been loyal when it comes to love, and he is never one to sleep around,” said Lupine who felt
bad about it as well. She wondered, “He must feel hopeless and terrible now…”
“Did I make a mistake? Maybe I shouldn’t have done any of that?”
Charlotte felt extremely guilty when she thought about how devastated Louis looked earlier.
“I think we made the right choice,” replied Morgan immediately, “Also, this is not your fault. Lady Sherlyn and Diana
are the ones to blame. One of them was ignorant and schemed like a villain, while the other was arrogant and
committed the sin.”
“That’s true. Besides, we can’t keep this a secret forever. It will be revealed eventually, and it’s not like you can
bear the burden forever,” agreed Lupine. It was rare, but the two ladies were actually in agreement!
Charlotte sighed and said, “I just hope Louis can get past this sooner rather than later. If he doesn’t… I honestly
don’t know how to face him.”
“Neither one of you knew how to interact with each other now, so parting ways is the best option. Hopefully, Sir
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRobert will let us go soon.”
“I’m guessing we still have to stay the night. They will probably let us go tomorrow, though,” said Charlotte before
she checked her watch and instructed, “I’m actually more worried about Louis doing something stupid tonight. Keep
an eye on him and keep me posted at all times.”
“Understood,” replied Lupine. After that, she ordered, “The two of you are to go gauge the situation right now.”
“Understood,” replied the girls, Jade and Emma, who hurried out immediately to carry out the tasks.
It was already a little past one o’clock at night. Most maids and subordinates should be asleep, and the castle
should remain quiet. However, the matter between Diana and Louis got every light in the place lit up.
The maids were all terrified and were worried about something happening.
Avril and the other more experienced servants were busying away, but neither Jade nor Emma knew what they
were doing.
Jade and Emma tried to approach the master room, but someone stopped them, so they had to return empty-
handed.
They did, however, overhear two maids gossiping, “Sir Robert and Lady Sherlyn are arguing, so we must be careful
or their crossfire will kill us.”
“Sir Louis locked himself in the room and refused to open the door for anyone. I am so worried. Will he be okay?”
“This is really getting out of hand…”
“Sir Louis? Sir Louis, please open the door. Let us help you,” said Avril carefully as she knocked on Louis’ door.
There was no response.
On the other side in the master bedroom, a crisp Clang! rang.
Robert had lost his temper and smashed the wineglass he had with him. He roared angrily, “Your actions are
unacceptable!”
“What mistake did I really make?” refuted Sherlyn with her head up high, “I was thinking of the bigger picture and
was only doing it for Louis. I simply wanted to push this wedding along. That is why I planned everything. Who
would’ve thought that the b*tch, Diana, would…”
The mere mention of Diana got Sherlyn to grit her teeth in anger. The latter complained, “I can’t believe we have
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbeen raising that ungrateful b*tch and keeping her close to us the entire time!”
“She’s your extended family, isn’t she?” said Robert. He was so angry that he was turning red when he added,
“Also, your so-called plan is ridiculous! Not only did it not push the wedding along, but it also backfired. Do you
realize that you hurt our son?”
“I truly regret it as well,” confessed Sherlyn. She was heartbroken when she thought about her son. Still, she
complained, “Ah, my boy is too stubborn. It’s not like he’d lose a limb or something from this.”
“Yeah, and your boy is also a loyal lover,” said Robert angrily, “What do we do now?”
“Let me go talk to him,” suggested Sherlyn as she got up to head out of the room.
“I just went to check on him. He locked himself in the room and refused to leave. He probably doesn’t want to see
anyone now,” replied Robert, who was angry once again. After that, he scolded, “You really are troublesome. I told
you not to do anything, but you refused to heed my warning.”
“Oh, what’s the point of yelling at me now?” said Sherlyn with a broken heart, “We should focus on solving the
matter at hand.”
“Hah, you’re the one who made the mess and now you expect me to clean it up? Why don’t you come up with a
solution and solve it yourself?” said Robert bitterly.
