If You Can Do It, Go For It

Ryan was very angry.

Even after returning to his study, his anger had not dissipated.

What was that maid?

Daring to point fingers again and again?

Even adopting that elder-like posture… Who did that maid think she was?

Was he wrong to protect his own safety and severely punish the criminals?

What if he didn’t tell them in advance?

Was he not allowed to cast a long line to catch big fish and expose more criminals?

Did he need to inform everyone?

He had taken the corresponding safety measures and had the hidden guards watching, ensuring that no accidents would occur.

What was there to criticize?

Didn’t everything turn out fine?

Wasn’t it just that one mole died? And he didn’t even do it!

What was wrong with him killing the chicken to scare the monkeys?

If he didn’t intimidate these people, what would they do next time, colluding with outsiders?

Why should he be criticized like that!

Did she think he didn’t want to catch the real culprit?

Did he need to be taught about respecting the dead?

Was she treating him like a three-year-old child!

The more Ryan thought about it, the angrier he became.

“Get out!”

Even when a hidden guard appeared, wanting to say something, he was immediately shouted down.

“Damn it!”

Looking at the empty study, Ryan became even angrier.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Charlton, I’ve disappointed you.”

In the familiar storage room, Flora bowed deeply to the old butler.

After the Crown Prince angrily said those words, he flicked his sleeves and left.

Although he didn’t immediately order her disposal, everyone knew that she was done for.

There was also a hidden guard following her, afraid that she would slip away.

Or afraid that someone would let her go.

“Flora… you didn’t need to go this far.”

The old butler’s face no longer held the previous anger, but was filled with deep self-reproach and sorrow.

Flora knew very well that the old butler’s previous anger and the rough actions of pressing her to the ground were all deliberate acts to protect her.

Now, the old butler probably felt guilty because he felt that those things she said should have been done by him.

“It’s okay, Mr. Charlton, I don’t regret it… Rather, what you should do now is to accompany His Highness Ryan.”

These were not just polite words, nor were they all about bravado and comfort.

Although her plan to break the engagement had failed, it wasn’t without any gains.

At least she learned that the Crown Prince’s nature wasn’t bad, he just lacked someone to guide him.

The best proof was that the Crown Prince actually seriously considered the safety of the servants, but his approach was rather self-righteous and didn’t consider the feelings of others at all.

Usually, the Crown Prince’s tolerance of the servants showed that he wasn’t a brutal person, but he wasn’t good at expressing his true thoughts, which led to misunderstandings.

Then, because of being misunderstood, he fell into a vicious cycle of not wanting to show his emotions.

But these could all be corrected.

It just shouldn’t be said by Flora.

She was also too impulsive.

But there was no way.

The Crown Prince could clearly do better, but he adopted such an awkward approach… it was infuriating to watch.

If that poisoned food was eaten by someone other than her, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The hidden guards were only seriously watching the kitchen, only watching her and Cohen, who were the most suspicious.

What timely rescue, what definitely no problem… it was just an ideal state.

To joke with other people’s lives, to so despise the hard-won life…

He was simply an ignorant young child.

Considering the deceased former queen and the fact that the Crown Prince lived in the suburbs far from the palace and the capital, she couldn’t help but lecture him.

“Don’t think that His Highness Ryan has been on the battlefield, can handle official duties for His Majesty, and frequents various adult social circles, he is still an immature seventeen-year-old boy.”

Afraid that the old butler wouldn’t understand, Flora quickly explained,

“Right now, he urgently needs a trusted elder by his side… Mr. Charlton, only you can do this.”

For a moment, Charlton thought there was something wrong with his eyes, and he actually saw the young lady who was about to go to the execution ground.

But he took a closer look and found that it was just a blonde girl.

A girl with the same gentle and kind temperament as the young lady, and who sincerely hoped that the young master could live a happy life in the future.

“Flora, quickly go back and pack your things, and then leave the mansion.”

Charlton said, then looked at a vacant corner, “Yuri, don’t follow her!”

The hidden guard couldn’t hold back any longer, took off her invisible cloak, and revealed her figure.

Although she was wrapped in black clothes from head to toe, only revealing her eyes, it could be seen from her figure that this was a petite woman.

“Mr. Charlton… are you going to betray His Highness?”

The hidden guard made a slightly naive girl’s voice.

“I will report to His Highness… Didn’t you forget what you should do in the absence of further orders from His Highness?” Charlton said angrily.

“Understood.”

The Crown Prince did not order to track the blonde girl, and the hidden guard had to obey the order and leave.

“Go quickly.”

Leaving these words, Charlton hurriedly left.

But the hidden guard didn’t really go far, but hid in a position where she could just sense her, which didn’t look like tracking at first glance.

Flora didn’t care, and went straight back to the dormitory.

Sure enough, Heidi was already helping her pack her things.

“Flora, hurry up, there’s no time.”

At this time, Heidi didn’t bother to criticize her as usual, and said without turning her head.

“Thank you, Heidi,” Flora smiled gratefully.

Hearing this, Heidi’s nose soured, and she scolded with a crying voice, “You’re really an idiot!”

But after a while, she turned around and found that Flora had disappeared.

Flora didn’t just leave without caring about anything.

On the contrary, she returned to the mansion hall, standing there silently waiting for the upcoming punishment.

The reason was simple, if she just ran away, not to mention that the Crown Prince’s authority would be gone, the old butler and Heidi would be in trouble.

She couldn’t be so selfish.

Of course, she wasn’t waiting to die.

As long as the punishment didn’t threaten her life, even the heaviest injuries were not a big problem for her.

If the Crown Prince became angry and really wanted to kill her… it wouldn’t be too late for her to run away then.

Although doing so would expose her identity, this would not implicate the others in the mansion… it would probably trigger a series of big problems afterwards.

But at that time, the most troublesome person would only be her.

To calm it down, she only needed to pay some price.

After dissuading Polina and Yara, who came to inquire about the situation, the Crown Prince came downstairs with the old butler and two knights.

At the same time, four hidden guards were hiding in various corners, their eyes firmly locked on Flora.

Flora remained unmoved, looking resolutely at the black-haired boy.

To this, the black-haired boy smiled evilly.

“From today on, you will be the head maid.”

Flora was stunned.

The black-haired boy walked forward, leaned slightly, approached her ear, and said in a voice filled with bone-chilling coldness:

“If you don’t do it well… I will kill you.”
