Who made me a princess

Chapter 7

Lacie: "haa...."

Lucy: "Are you alright my lady?"

Charlotte: "You've been absent minded today, if there is anything we can do to help you please tell us"

Lacie: "I am fine, sorry to worry"

Lucy: "If you need anything please call us immediately"

Lacie: "Thank You, I will head to my room to rest"

Watching the retreating back of their lady, makes them more worried

Lucy: "The lady seems down; I wonder if something happened during her outing today"

Charlotte: "We don't have the right to ask, so let's do our best to cheer her up"

Lucy: "That's where the princess comes, right"

Charlotte: "For once you said something right"

Lucy: "That's mean, hey wait for me"

Lacie POV

I can't focus on anything

I am so stupid; why did I say something like that to him

Flashback

Claude: "You don't have anything to ask me?"

Lacie: "I will ask the person you will assign; I won't bother you with my question"

Claude: "Not about this, shouldn't it be why I am allowing you to manage after all this time"

Lacie: "I really don't care about"

Claude: "I can see you will take seriously"

Lacie: "Because when I married your Majesty I took this marriage seriously"

The shocked expression on Claude face made it hard for Lacie to keep her head up, especially after she said those words.

Lacie: "Now he will think I am like the other women"

Claude: "That's why you become a mother to a child I neglected"

Lacie: "It's not about that, every child has the right to be loved and cared about, and I came to know this since I was loved by my family.......but, I don't know if I should say this" she hesitated, studying his face with a stiff expression

Claude: "Continue"

Lacie: "To be honest, I don't know his Majesty and I am not sure how was your situation with your family, but it's clear they didn't love you the right way,....and after the incident last time I know I shouldn't blame you because......you don't know"

Lacie: "I sincerely apologize, please forgive me"

Looking at her bowing made Claude feel happy, it means that she didn't hate him that much

Claude: "Dose it also mean your duty to me, as an emperor and husband?"

Lacie: "What......"

Red eyes met with crystal blue eyes, as if trying to figure what the other person is thinking

Lacie: "Your Majesty......."

Claude: "hm."

Lacie: "I will excuse myself for today"

Knowing that their conversation has taken a different turn today, it's the best that both of them take time to think carefully about what have been said
