I want to feel happiness [Bonus chapter]

Charlotte returned to the palace before lunch hours and was surprised to see Édouard in the chamber. He left the pen on the table and stood up from his place. "When did you come here? I thought you would be busy at work," Charlotte said as she removed her gloves. Zoe took them from her and also the scarf that Charlotte had around her neck.

"My work finished early today," Édouard replied and gazed at Rainard. "Thank you," he said. Rainard bowed and left the chamber. A servant came inside with the tray in her hand. Charlotte picked up the water glass and drank water first before taking a seat on the sofa.

"Close the doors," Édouard asked the servant, who took the glass from Charlotte and walked out.

"How is everything at your home? I hope your father is in a good health," Édouard stated.
