Chapter 917 God Descends (28)
Charles' birthday came as scheduled.
Sure enough, Fu Yue received a golden invitation specially sent by His Highness the Prince. The words on it were sincere and expressed his great hope that she could go to his birthday party.
This matter spread to the ears of other girls in the empire who admired the prince, and caused another wave of jealousy.
On the same day, the Duchess took several of her stepsons and stepdaughters, including Fu Yue, to the palace.
The Duchess is a woman in her early thirties.
She is very beautiful, with blond hair and blue eyes, a plump and lustrous figure, fair complexion, and no trace of age on her well-maintained face. She is as beautiful as a delicate rose of Versailles.
The Duchess is wearing a gorgeous palace-style dress, a somber dark red color, a pair of hollow gloves on her hands, and a beautiful black top hat on her head. The half of the black gauze hanging down in front of the brim covers the Half of her face only showed her beautiful chin.
Aloof and dignified.
She had no ill intentions towards the children of the Duke of White Rose, and their relationship was cold, but still polite. It was originally a family marriage, and she and the Duke had no relationship at all.
The Duchess's eyes fell on Fu Yue, and then she thought of the recent rumors in the aristocratic circle... Prince Charles is in love with the Duke's youngest daughter, Cloya.
The Duchess frowned.
Charles was not a frugal man. Although he was still young, he was very rich. How could he show such blatant love to a girl, a girl who was cursed because of her black hair?
Marrying a girl who is a symbol of bad luck in everyone's eyes.
This means that Charles has completely missed the throne.
Why did Charles do this?
The Duchess couldn't figure it out.
But no matter what, whether this feeling is true or false, Charles' love is definitely not a good thing for Chloe.
The Duchess frowned slightly, but decided to remind her stepdaughter not to get too close to Charles.
After all, girls at this age are most likely to be intoxicated by boys' sweet words and eternal vows.
The Duchess spoke: "Chloe."
Fu Yue came back to her senses and smiled sweetly at the duchess, "Mother."
Fu Yue is always very tolerant and friendly to good-looking people.
It was obvious that the Duchess was a typical Western beauty in her eyes.
"Don't get too close to Charles, it won't do you any good."
The Duchess was the kind of cold beauty. Even though her original intention was for Fu Yue's good, her words sounded like a warning.
Fu Yue was stunned.
She could feel that the Duchess had no ill intentions towards her, and naturally she wouldn't think too much about it, although the tone of her words was indeed not a good one.
The Duchess also realized that there seemed to be something wrong with her tone. Her beautiful face froze suddenly and her lips moved, but she couldn't hold back a word.
The black-haired girl lowered her eyes slightly and nodded.
"Yes, mother."
Fu Yue could tell that there was no malice in what the Duchess said, but that didn't mean that others could hear it too. For example, her second sister, Andrea, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He immediately gloated.
"Chloë, did you hear what your mother said? Charles is not something that a concubine like you can climb up to. Don't bring shame on yourself."
Fu Yue: "..."
She didn't want to talk to the dog.
Hearing this, the Duchess frowned and her eyes fell on Andrea, her eyes inexplicably cold.
"Andrea, if I remember correctly, you don't seem to be my biological child."
The implication is that you are also a concubine, why are you forcing yourself there?
Andrea: "..."
Fu Yue: "Haha."
Good night
