Lucy was not about to let Charlotte have her way. She waved all the staff members off, and they quickly left.

Charlotte was furious. She wanted so much to throw the glass of water on the table onto Lucy's face. She grabbed the cup and was about to throw the water when Matthew stopped her. "You..."

Charlotte did not manage to finish her words. She exclaimed when Matthew stopped her with everything he got. Charlotte rubbed her wrist and realized that it was red from being gripped by him. She felt that her bones were almost crushed by him.

Matthew had always been a gentleman. He would never act violently when thugs harassed him at times during work. He would even treat them politely when dealing with them. Even Lucy rarely saw this sight of him when he was being impatient. He ignored Charlotte's objections and took a seat at the table as if nothing had happened.

Matthew's voice rang out clear and crisp in the air. Everyone heard him say, "You shouldn't talk with your mouth full. Careful of being choked to death by your food."

Lucy almost spat out her soup when he said that.

Charlotte was probably not thinking clearly because of her anger. She pointed at Matthew's head and said loudly, "Do you know what you're saying? I... I'm the princess of this palace. I've lived here for so many years and have earned the right to make decisions here. "How dare you go against me and give orders to the helpers at my home?"
