Chapter 353
Dumbfounded, Charlotte stood there with a strong urge to annihilate Cillian.
So what if she liked him? That did not mean he could reject her and make her look bad!
"Silly little brother, how could you reject such a lovely princess? Your Royal Highness, may I have this dance?"
At that crucial moment, Caleb showed up to ease Charlotte's embarrassment, though it was unknown whether he was doing it intentionally. "Sure."
She still needed a dance partner tonight. Since this man showed up, she had no reason to refuse.
The two of them spun around the dance floor, and Caleb even gestured toward his brother.
Caleb knew that Cillian wanted to be left alone, and when he saw the annoying princess insisting on dancing with Cillian, he had to come to his
rescue.
Bedtime stories typically ended once everyone was happily dancing away, but it was not over yet for them.
Chelsea grabbed Hugh to sneak in and find Lucy, but Hugh only wanted to dance with her.
"Chelsea, don't you see how romantic the moment is right now? So many people are dancing and your beloved is right in front of you. Must you go off to find your best friend?"
Hugh looked at Chelsea with puppy eyes, but she did not give a damn.
"Didn't we agree to sneak in and find Lulu tonight? Now is the perfect opportunity. If you don't want to, I'll go myself."
They could dance anytime they wanted to. Chelsea let go of Hugh's hand and rushed in, but Hugh quickly stopped her.
"Absolutely not. We already know she's in the palace, and it's not like she's going to run away. Do you have to go in there to find her? Chelsea, who's more important, Lucy or me? Tell me!"
Hugh threw a tantrum, and Chelsea looked at him as if he were a fool.
Was it not obvious? Of course, Lucy was more important. The earlier she could see Lucy the better.
Hugh instantly realized that he had asked a stupid question and that he was setting himself up for trouble.
Chelsea was about to move forward
again until Hugh stopped her once more, using a different tactic. "Alright, alright. If you want to go, go with you, but I must ask you What if we fail to sneak in and get kicked out? Wouldn't it be
embarrassing for Lucy if she had to
come to our rescue?" Content

If he wanted to persuade Chelsea, Hugh had to bring up Lucy's well-being, since that was what Chelsea was most concerned about.
As expected, he understood her well. Chelsea paused, realizing that he was right. If they were caught and Lucy had to come to their rescue in front of everyone, how embarrassing would that be for her?
"Listen to me. Since Lucy has found her biological parents, she must be staying in the palace. We can come back tomorrow, and the people in the palace will surely inform her. She will definitely meet us then
Hugh emphasized how certain he was, finally persuading Chelsea to not sneak into the inner hall.
If the inner hall were not this heavily guarded, he might have let her sneak in.

inner hall. They were basically deceiving the people with false advertising.
However, it was not like this in previous years, at least not with so many guards.
It was because of Lucy's consecutive assassination attempts that the royal family had to increase the number of guards around the inner hall to ensure Lucy's safety while keeping their traditions.
The invitations for the nobles and commoners were different, and there was a quota for each category.
