Dearest Princess のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Larissa took Queenie to a salon, persuading Queenie to curl her hair.Queenie was initially reluctant until Larissa said, "Didn't you notice that Lena has straight hair?""I'll do it!" Queenie made up her mind almost instantly.A few hours later, her straight, long hair became curly.Unlike her usual youthful look, she now exuded sexy charms.Larissa caressed her chin. "Why do I feel that something is lacking? Oh, your clothes!"Later, they headed to the mall. Larissa chose a few clothes of different styles and shoved them into Queenie's arms. "Try them on."Queenie tried those clothes as told.She got changed into a pretty long dress with big flowers at the hem of the garment. With every time she took a step, she seemed like a lady stepping on a flowery path.Larissa wiped off the brown-red lipstick on Queenie's lips. Next, Larissa put on a striking red lipstick for Queenie.Larissa said, "I told you that you're a gorgeous one with defined features. But you kept dolling

Charmaine, who was faking a cry, cried for real the moment Ethan yelled at her.Penelope pulled Charmaine over and motioned for her to get into their car.Penelope said, "Mr. Hamilton, Charmaine is still young and naive. Please don't take it to the heart. I apologize in her stead."Ambrose said expressionlessly, "Doesn't she share the same birthday as Larissa? Is she still a kid?"The corner of her lips twitched at that remark. She responded with a few words of courtesy before getting back to the car.Her expression turned grim as soon as she entered the car. "Larissa must've told him everything!"She's so ungrateful. Does she think that she's going to be a Cinderella after winning his favor? Dream on!"Ethan scolded, "Shut it! Think before you speak. Larissa wins his favor with her capability. What are you so upset about?"His words somehow ticked Penelope off. Her expression contorted in anger, unlike her usual self.She shouted, "I am upset about it! Didn't you see her sm

Larissa maintained a deadpan expression. "I won't apologize. She deserves it.""How dare you talk back at me! I'm going to teach you a lesson today!" Penelope raised her hand high.Larissa stared at Penelope's hand without blinking her eyes.Larissa could dodge it perfectly, but she chose to stand right there.She thought, "This is the woman who claims to be my mother."The slap would eventually cut the remaining kinship between them.Her empty gaze somehow made Penelope anxious.But Charmaine's sob gave Penelope more reason not to stop there."Are you glaring at me? Apologize to Charmaine, or I will beat you to a pulp!" She flung her hand without pulling herself back.Larissa closed her eyes. Once Penelope slapped her, she decided that she would not acknowledge Penelope as her mother anymore.However, Larissa didn't feel pain in the cheek.At that moment, Ambrose held Penelope's wrist.He tightened his grasp a little, and a loud snap resounded.Penelope screamed in pain.

Larissa said, "This is my money. Why do I need to reach out to you when I need it? How inconvenient. I'm smart. You can't take a single cent from me, let alone others."She had a point, so Penelope couldn't dispute that.Ethan glared at Penelope, annoyed that she couldn't see the bigger picture.Be it money or projects, the Solaces would be flooded by them in the future."Alright. Since Larissa and Mr. Hamilton are engaged, you and Charmaine should give them your best wishes. I have faith in Larissa's choice." He took the liberty as the head of the family to interrupt the conversation.He looked at Ambrose. "Mr. Hamilton, why not announce the engagement to the public someday? It's good news. We should share the happy occasion."It was a scheme. As long as they announced the engagement between Ambrose and Larissa, the Solace family was bound to have only good days ahead of them.Ambrose said indifferently, "I have my plans for that. But before this, don't you think you should r

Ambrose's expression darkened. "Mrs. Solace, please choose your words carefully. Larissa and I have signed a marriage contract, and we are legally engaged. No one would dare to speak ill of her."Penelope insisted, "Even though you're engaged, it's still inappropriate. After all, Larissa is only 18. If people find out that she lives with a man at such a young age, what will that make us? I disagree with it!"He narrowed his eyes. "I admit that it was an accident that I had sex with her. I can promise you that I won't touch her before we marry. "And please be mindful of your words, Mrs. Solace. Larissa is your daughter. No mother would describe their daughter in such a way."Alarmed, Ethan quickly tried to ease the tension. "Please forgive us, Mr. Hamilton. My wife is just worried about our daughter. That's all."It was a slip of the tongue. After all, Larissa has been separated from us for 18 years. Our reunion hasn't been easy. Penelope tends to be sensitive and cautious when it
