Of course, it wasn't just Mika who had changed.
Charlotte had changed too.
Not dramatically. She was still the proud, haughty girl she had always been.
But she wasn't a spoiled brat anymore. She was more reserved now, more thoughtful of others.
She knew when to stop, when to act, when to drop her act and be serious. She was still a devil from time to time, playing sneaky pranks and teasing others, but she always knew her limits.
The family was utterly relieved by the transformation.
They had been worried that Charlotte would never grow out of her spoiled phase, that she would always be the demanding, entitled girl they had known.
But now, they could see the woman she was becoming—strong, compassionate, wise beyond her years.
And they were proud.
Of course, after the incident, Mika had finally figured out the truth behind Charlotte's passive blessing and how it had been subtly influencing everyone around her.
