Chapter 226: What Would A Dressmaker Bring?
It wasn’t until lunchtime that Rose learned the crown prince had taken her complaint quite seriously. After Mister Henry had knocked on her door just before breakfast, there hadn’t been any visible changes, and a different set of maids brought her breakfast, even though the sisters had been serving her for the past few days.
When this happened, she became doubtful and feared things would only remain as they had been. However, when lunchtime came around, there were guards placed right outside the doors to her room, and not just anyone was allowed into the crown prince’s wing.
The dressmaker was also not allowed into the crown prince’s wing, let alone onto the floor Rose was on. It wasn’t until Chelsy and Isla were bringing her lunch that they noticed the young woman waiting at the entrance with a heavy bag. Even with Chelsy and Isla present, the guards didn’t let Bailey through, and she had to hand the bag over to the sisters with a message for Rose.
"I can’t believe they didn’t even let her bring it to me," Rose whispered as she listened to the sisters’ story.
It sounded as though she was complaining, but Rose was very pleased. She knew she couldn’t possibly stop the Queen, but she was hoping the order would prevent the Queen from sending just anyone to her.
Chelsy shook her head as she arranged the table for Rose while her sister stood aside, still holding the bag. "They said only people who had gotten permission or a pass from the crown prince would be allowed to pass."
Isla suddenly laughed. "Imagine walking around with a permit just to get into the crown prince’s wing. That would be funny."
"Only you would find something like that funny. It’s bothersome," Chelsy said.
"I only said it was funny; I didn’t mean it was something to laugh at."
"Oh, is there another definition of funny that I am unaware of, Isla?"
