Chapter 26

Things turned out to be as the king expected, Cinderella's suicide made Rochester feel a lot of pain, he began to face up to the conflict between Cinderella and his father, the only way for his father to accept Cinderella was to take the initiative to hand over the Lucas family's property, Rochester has been reluctant to force her to do so, but now he doesn't think so, money is important, Cinderella woke up and agreed to give the family property to the king under Rochester's persuasion.

Hungry Charlotte walked aimlessly on the crowded street, carefully hiding herself in her hat and cloak, looking down at the half-meter radius in front of her feet, Charlotte felt extremely depressed, but she didn't dare to look up, and she didn't dare to care about the eyes of the people around her.

Under a window not far from the street, Ero sat on a chair and beckoned a man dressed as a beggar to come over, she took a bag of money to tempt the man to let him run errands, and pointed to Charlotte's figure, Ero told the beggar that his task was to take off the hat, and the money would be his, and the beggar thought it would be too easy, so he immediately agreed to Ero and trotted closer to Charlotte.

The churning stomach can be soothed with one hand, and the thoughts stirring in the heart can be calmed by what? The splendid life turned out to be just a façade, and the ghost lurking in the corner was staring, and when you were weak, it swooped down and tore it to pieces viciously! Charlotte pressed the brim of her hat even lower, as if that would hide her pathetic anger.

Due to sadness, hunger and a long journey, Charlotte was very tired, and the beggar soon caught up with her, and walked behind Charlotte for a while, and found that Charlotte did not pay attention to him at all, and the beggar finally took off Charlotte's hat, and he ran away, Charlotte covered her face in panic, but there were still sharp-eyed passers-by who saw Charlotte's face, and they screamed and ran away,

"Run! Monsters! ”

People for unknown reasons also screamed and ran around. Charlotte was grabbed by a person in the chaos, she instinctively wanted to break free, but the hand seemed to be glued to her body and couldn't shake it off.

"Charlotte."

She knows who I am! Charlotte opened one eye, and a short Lori was reflected in the blood-red pupils.

"Want to see Lydia?"

Charlotte always remained vigilant and followed the little Lori into a carriage, until the carriage drove all the way into the palace, Charlotte finally believed the words of the little Lori, she could take herself to see her mother, which also made Charlotte's suspicions even heavier, what is the identity of the little Lori?

got out of the carriage, Charlotte was taken to a secret room by little Lori,

"I'm afraid you'll have to live here for the next few days, of course you can also go out for a walk, it's best not to leave the Ganlu Palace, take it, it's your freedom."

Saying that, little Lori threw Charlotte a key, and in the face of Little Lori's mocking eyes, Charlotte didn't want to pick it up, she stopped her before Little Lori left,

"Who the hell are you? What is the purpose of you tricking me here? Why haven't you let me see my mother? ”

Little Lori returned to the secret room and sat down, her eyes staring at Charlotte tightly, revealing a maturity that did not match her age.

"First of all, you yourself are willing to follow me, I didn't force you, right?"

Charlotte was choked by Little Lori's words, and retracted helplessly,

"Even so, you should always tell me who you are, it's unsettling for you to cover it up like this."

"What's the use of knowing who I am? You're a strange person. ”

Charlotte thought sadly, what little Lori said was right, now she is equivalent to just out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den, she can't help herself, what's the use of knowing who she is.

"You want to see your mother on the condition that you should know that in order to succeed in this world, you must pay a corresponding price, so what are you going to exchange with me?"

"Whatever you want, I can give it to you as long as I have."

Little Lori smiled,

"You are really generous, but this is very good, I don't want anything from you, I just need you to listen to me for everything, the period is fifteen days, after which you are free, you can leave the royal capital with your mother and sister."

Charlotte hesitated and listened to her for everything, which was obviously letting herself do bad things! Can you promise her?

"Also, don't you want to change back to your old self? You're not at all curious about what the fake Charlotte did with your body? ”

Charlotte touched her face, she had become so ugly, could her mother still recognize her, and when the family was reunited in the future, would they have to live in hiding with her.

"Fifteen days will not work, ten days, I will promise you."

"A lot of people in the town know that a monster has sneaked in, you have to think about what the consequences will be if I hand you over!"

Little Lori must stay by herself for fifteen days, it seems that fifteen days is a key, maybe something big will happen.

"Ero, you have to think clearly!"

A majestic male voice came in from outside the door of the secret room, Ero's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly wanted to hide Charlotte, but unfortunately the man had already walked into the secret room first,

"Ero, you've disappointed me."

Ero stood in front of the man with his head down, his expression depressed, the crown on the man's head was shining with golden light, Charlotte immediately guessed that the person who came was the king, then, the one who called his father was Princess Ero!

The man glanced around the secret room, and although Eero always blocked it with his body, he still found Charlotte who was trying to shrink her sense of existence,

"What a monster this is! Come! Take it away and put it in jail. ”

Hérault hurriedly stopped,

"Father, she's my friend, you can't do this!"

"Friends? It seems that you will not only understand the curse, but also befriend a monster! ”

Ero looked fiercely at the man behind his father,

"Moses! You betrayed me! ”

The king slapped Eero's head,

"Moses is my man, what right do you have to ask him to cover it up for you."

Ero snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction, and when the king saw that she still didn't know how to admit her mistake, he immediately became angry, and his voice was cold,

"Moses, invite the princess back to the palace, the prince doesn't have to come out before the wedding, and no one is allowed to visit!"

Ero still wanted to argue, but Moses hurriedly took the princess out of the secret room, and on the way back to the dormitory, Moses saw that Ero was depressed and comforted the princess, saying,

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, rest assured, His Majesty the King has a way to clean up the Duke of Windsor, if Her Royal Highness the Princess needs to do it herself, then our servants should die."

Ero was amused by Moses, and she thought that Charlotte might be more useful in her father's hands than in her own hands, and she no longer cared about Moses going to his father to complain.

"Do you eat all the food with a long mouth? Haha~~"

It's just a pity that it will be inconvenient to do anything in the future, abominable Moses! Eero couldn't laugh anymore, she turned her head and glared at Moses, which made Moses very strange, wasn't it coaxed? Why are you angry again?!

In the secret room, Charlotte couldn't help but be slightly nervous in the face of the king's scrutinizing eyes, and after half an hour, Charlotte finally couldn't help but speak first,

"What do you want to know?"

"Charlotte, I'm curious, how did you manage to escape from under the snake's mouth? Tell me who helped you, and I can set you and your mother free. ”

The king heard everything, and Charlotte lamented that it was almost impossible to sneak her mother and sister away.

"A little milk cat, it bit the snake to death, and I was lucky to survive."

The king thinks Charlotte is lying, and he is a little annoyed that the family has repeatedly deceived themselves, which is unforgivable!

"Humph! Think about it. ”

Throwing off a sentence, the king slammed the door and left the secret room, Charlotte slapped her head in a hurry, no one believed the truth, she knew to make up a character for the king to find.
