Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love

Chapter 364



Lola refused to admit it, and Charlotte glanced at Lucy smugly. "See, Lola didn't tell her to do it at all. I have no idea why you wanted to damage the crown. Perhaps you were just reckless because you failed to realize the value of the crown."

Value? What value? Lucy was bewildered, but Arthur and Juliana were looking at her seriously.

Charlotte's words were convincing enough that they were starting to believe her.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"Dad, Mom, don't be too harsh on my sister. I believe that she was just being playful. Perhaps she was careless because she didn't know the significance of the crown as the token of her fief."

Her seemingly kind words only added fuel to the fire.

Arthur's and Juliana's faces turned cold as they looked at Lucy.

"Velda, do you have anything else to say? Do you realize that this crown represents your fief?"

Instead of blaming Lucy directly, Juliana explained the importance of the crown, "Without this crown, you won't be able to govern your fief. It's a symbol of your status as a princess.

"If you don't cherish it, and if you're really the one who damaged it, I'm afraid we'll have to revoke your fief."

Revoking her fief was the most severe punishment possible. Lucy did not expect the crown to hold such significance.

Lucy did not care much about losing her fief, but she could not let Charlotte frame her for this.

Arthur and Juliana were on the verge of exploding over this crown incident, but Lucy remained calm. She asked, "If the crown is so important, does that mean that the person who damaged it will face severe punishment?"

That was a given, so they wondered why Lucy would ask such a question. However, Arthur nodded instinctively nheless.

Lucy continued, "Alright then. Since

my sister claims that I damaged the

crown, it's only fair that I defend

myself. I believe that my sister damaged it beforehand." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Lucy's gaze was firm as she looked ahead.

Charlotte immediately put on a sad expression and said to Lucy, "Lucy, I know you're afraid of taking responsibility for your mistakes, but how can you push the blame onto me and accuse me on purpose?" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Her heartfelt plea caused Arthur and Juliana to side with her.

"Velda, how could you do this? Apologize to your sister!"

Juliana looked sternly at Lucy while Arthur shouted angrily, "Velda, you've truly disappointed me. Not. only do you refuse to repent for your mistakes, but you're even trying to blame it on your sister. It seems like I have no choice but to punish you..."

Before Arthur could finish, Lucy interrupted him, "Dad, please don't rush to condemn me. I can prove that I didn't damage the crown." What? Lucy could prove it? Arthur, Juliana, and Charlotte were stunned.

"W-What proof do you have?" Charlotte nervously asked, unable to shake off the premonition that something bad was going to happen. Lucy smirked and continued, "I'll just ask one thing. Are you sure you witnessed me damaging the crown with your own eyes?" Instead of rushing to defend herself, Lucy posed another question to Charlotte.

There was no way of backing out now, so Charlotte bit the bullet and said, "Of course!"

"If you

insist..."

Lucy smiled and turned to Arthur and Juliana. “Our parents have heard you. Now, if everyone can take a look at the crown..."
