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

It seemed like the sole purpose of Annabella and her family's visit today was to form a marriage alliance with the royal family. They wished to use Theodore as a stepping stone to add prestige to their noble lineage. If Annabella were to find a more influential ally than the royal family of Charleston after getting together with Theodore, would she push Theodore aside?

This suspicion might seem far-fetched, but given how she acted, it was not entirely impossible.

Lucy remained disinterested in the small talk with Annabella.

It was off-season, so many flowers in Charleston's royal garden had not yet bloomed.

Lucy had intended to admire the flowers at first, but now, she found herself unsure of what to do. Meanwhile, Annabella continued to ramble on incessantly.

"I heard that Prince Theodore is interested in racing. Is that true? If I recall correctly, it's because of the overwhelming affairs in Charleston that he had to abandon his dream of racing."

Lucy had heard Theodore briefly mention his dream of becoming a race car driver, but because he was the heir to the throne of Charleston, his dream had to be set aside.
