The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 1862

Hearing that, Queenie's heart lurched.

What did she mean by that?

"To be honest, I truly admire Asclepius. But..."

Charlotte's lips curved as she deliberately watched the micro-expressions on Queenie's face. "The president's seat will be mine."

"Really?"

Queenie forced herself to stay calm, keeping a tight smile on her face. "You have great ambition, Charlotte. But for someone so young, you certainly talk big."

"The president's seat belongs only to Asclepius.

Only Asclepius is qualified to sit there."

At Queenie's words, Charlotte raised an eyebrow, her eyes narrowing as she studied the woman before her.

She referred to Asclepius in the third person, rather than saying 'me'.

It sounded more like she was defending Asclepius.

A fake defending the real deal?

This was a first for Charlotte.

"There is no one in this world better than Asclepius."

Queenie glared coldly at Charlotte, her hostility spiking at the mention of the presidency. "The president's seat will absolutely be mine."

Without giving Charlotte a chance to respond, she turned and slammed the door shut.

"Charlotte, is everything alright?"

Hans appeared with a platter of fruit, asking respectfully.

"I'm fine."

Charlotte picked up a grape, popping it into her mouth with a casual laugh. "How interesting."

"Anthony has already compiled all the data on Aurelia's pharmaceutical conglomerate."

Hans reported, unsure of what she was laughing about.

"Got it."
