Upon hearing the door open, Charlotte pushed away Édouard and lowered her head. Édouard gazed at Charles and stood straight.
"Pardon me, Your Highnesses," Charles apologized and kept his eyes on the floor while hiding his smile. "I will come later," Charles said, and was ready to leave.
"Alright," Édouard replied.
"Please continue what you have to tell the Prince. I have to go and see the Royal Mother," Charlotte stopped Charles from leaving.
Édouard arched his eyebrow at her and, with inquisitiveness, he gazed at her. She smiled at him and left to see Queen Anneliese.
Charles looked at Édouard and apologized to Édouard.
"Why do you have to come at such a time?" Édouard annoyingly asked and went toward the drawing room. Charles followed the prince to the drawing room.
"I had no idea that the Prince would be going intimate with the Princess," Charles said and smiled at Édouard.
