Chapter 174 This Is Awful

“This is awful. Just have them bring me the one the kitchen made,” Charlotte said flatly, setting down her spoon.

Camille’s face fell. “Lottie, I made this myself.”

“Well,” Charlotte replied calmly, meeting her gaze. “Your cooking has really gone downhill, then.”

Camille felt a surge of anger, her face alternating between pale and flushed.

Arthur was sitting nearby. Even though he wasn’t looking directly at them, his presence was oppressive.

She knew Arthur was doing this to defend Charlotte.

They wouldn’t leave until Charlotte was satisfied.

Camille took a deep breath to compose herself. “Fine,” she said, “I’ll have them bring it up.”

With that, she turned and left the room.

Charlotte felt a surge of satisfaction, but it wasn’t complete.

Camille wasn’t truly helpless against her; she was just afraid of Arthur.
