I Fell for the Temptation of the Evil Crown Prince Chapter 22

Growing Feelings (14)

“Should I knock?”

When Anna asked secretly, Pina and the crown prince's servant shook their heads with desperate faces. The servants and maids who knew what the atmosphere meant, exchanged glances and nodded at each other.

After a while, the crown prince opened the carriage door and came out. Rowena looked neat, but her cheeks were red.

“My lady.”

Rowena rolled her eyes embarrassingly at the sight of the group waiting for them and saw Cecil's hand that was extended. Rowena took the hand and got out of the carriage.

Everything is fine!

And she was about to shout. In particular, Lyria, who was very worried about this engagement, was deeply relieved. The crown prince was kind to Rowena, and Rowena seemed to like him.

Am I being too selfish and brazen?

She felt like a monster wanting her friend to be happy as she ran away. However, the scene gave her a sense of relief.

A glance at Kian made him smile at Lyria. Lyria bowed her head to the smile.

Pretending not to see it, Cecil escorted Rowena into the dressing room. The rest of the party followed suit.

It was a good thing that the crown prince personally looked after Rowena because she was married at best and if she didn't get the prince's love, she might not conceive a prince. If nothing bad happened in between, his grandson would become the emperor!

But this was upsetting.

“Why did you follow me there?”

Paul didn't know what he liked about the dull and foolish girl, but she seemed to have captured the crown prince's heart. The news came that the crown prince had already spent a lot of money chasing Rowena and had signed an engagement dress.

Paul, who had planned to match her engagement dress at the biggest grossing store by competing designers, was disappointed.

The crown prince stepped up and decided on her engagement dress, which he couldn't protest. So the huge amount of money he should have received was blown away.

Also, the small jewels that were supposed to be sent to the count were canceled. Now that the dressmaker had been decided, it looked like he'll go straight there.

Damn it! I tried to steal some of it.

The royal family sent jewelry to decorate the dress, so he thought it would not be obvious even if a little of it disappeared.

Who would count it!

But the jewel went to the dressing room without going through the count, and it was as if it had flown away from Paul's grasp.

I couldn't sell jewelry off the finished dress.

Why did you do something useless!

The arrow of anger returned to Rowena, who had gone to see Lyria and the dress, but now a few weeks later, she was a child who would leave the Count's house. It was different from when she was less influential in the count. She would become freer and have lots of power.

Paul looked down on women, but he didn't underestimate their resentment. He knew that Rowena was afraid of him, not that she liked him.

It didn't matter before. Who cares if that domestic pig despises me or not? However, Rowena was a human being, and it was impossible to know what she thought of him.

Rowena tried not to show hostility.

“If I knew this would happen, I would discipline her moderately.”'

Like other family members, Rowena didn't know how to look at her father with love. She only looked at Matthias with a wary look and felt a little sorry for Louis, who lost his mother at a young age. As for Theo, she didn't care about him.

Paul became rather nervous. Even if Rowena became a crown princess, she was still his daughter, so he thought that just a little scolding of him would be fine. She's just a girl.

However, if Rowena coaxed the crown prince into pushing him away, it could not be helped even if it was Paul. Because he was afraid of the crown prince.

No, it's not. I am the maternal grandfather of the prince who will be born in the future.

Nothing had been done yet, but people in line were already flocking like clouds. Even the high-nosed Marquis of Wenson looked grumpy and courteous to him.

How exhilarating it was!

Marquis and Counts. Even if they were of different levels, it was not a heavenly difference, but whenever the Marquis looked down on him as if he was treating him as a servant, he trembled inside.

You'll see.

Paul intended to coax Rowena into his own family as soon as Rowena had a son with Cecil.

The eldest son, Matthias, should be appointed as the head, and he would like to use her by giving Theo and Louis, who will become an adult, a seat in the future.

It was fortunate that there were few relatives in the royal family. Can't she share all her power and wealth with her own family?

Paul rolled his eyes, boiling with greed. There was still a long way to go, but he was full of desire to taste the power and wealth that he would receive anyway.
