The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 1479

Anthony leaned down, brushing his lips softly against Charlotte’s forehead. His voice had a hint of teasing. “Have you figured out how you’re going to break the news to Grandma and Grandpa?”

“Huh?” Charlotte blinked at him, confused for a second. Then it hit her, and she laughed quietly. “Yeah, things are definitely getting a little complicated…”

He ruffled her hair, his voice gentle. “You’ve been running yourself ragged lately. Take a break, okay?”

She’d been hands-on rewriting the script, stepping in to fix her own dress, and somewhere in the middle, she found time to play matchmaker. No wonder she was exhausted.

“Okay.” Charlotte curled up on the sofa and grabbed her phone, pulling up the group chat. Five people and a flood of unread messages.

[Andrew: Isn’t Charlotte’s break just about over?]

[Parrish: Kingswood University isn’t the same without her, honestly.]

[Stella: Being pregnant isn’t easy. Skipping classes for now… not the end of the world.]

[Shirley: If I were even half as smart as Charlotte, Mr. Lane wouldn’t be roasting me every day.]

Anthony glanced over and caught up with the thread too. “You still have three more days of break. Do you want to ask for more time? Or maybe just go back after the baby comes?”

Charlotte shook her head, barely looking up from her phone. “No, the lab at school is drowning in work. I promised Glenn I’d head back early.”
