Tobias ordered the palace guards to go inside and inspect the shop for threats before Hazel went inside. During this time, Charlotte Potter had sent out her customers to make way for the king and queen. No one else mattered when royalty was present.
Hazel entered the shop first and saw right away why so many young women were eager to buy dresses from the famous Mrs. Porter. Hazel was curious why Alessandra had skipped the famous woman and gone to her daughter instead. Erin Potter was not known for anyone wearing her dresses.
"Your Highness," Charlotte Potter curtsied at the sight of the king and queen. "I am honored by the two of you paying a visit. If needed, I could have traveled to the palace to see you."
"We did not travel from the palace to personally see you, miss," Tobias added as he did not know her name even though he had read the sign. "We were enjoying a ride around when the queen remembered she had business here."
