Charlotte looked at the large doors to the King's chamber. After making Édouard asleep, she came to see King Christian.
"His Majesty has allowed Princess Charlotte to enter," the chief servant said. Charlotte walked in and the doors closed.
The head steward bowed to see Charlotte and whispered near her ear, "His Majesty is in a terrible mood."
Charlotte stopped near the sofa chair and saw the King seated on the central sofa. She bowed to the King, who asked her to take a seat.
"The head steward can leave," Christian ordered, who left on the King's command.
"Why did Princess Charlotte request to see me?" Christian inquired.
"Your Majesty, I heard what happened earlier here," she kept her head low while her hands clasped together.
"If the Princess has come here to talk about it, then she can leave," Christian said and again got irked.
