Work Report

“Your Highness Ryan, how can you let that suspicious maid become the head maid!”

In the carriage, after hearing about the Crown Prince’s personnel appointment, the assistant Morick, who boarded halfway, said urgently,

“You must know that she is someone sent by ‘that one’!”

“It doesn’t matter, I just want to see what that Anos guy is planning to do.”

Ryan said calmly.

This wasn’t to say that his anger had disappeared, but that he realized that only by making that maid embarrass herself, obediently admitting her mistake, and even begging for mercy, could he relieve the hatred in his heart.

So what he had to do now was just wait.

However, he was indeed feeling more and more bored in his heart now, but not for that maid, but for this assistant in front of him who seemed to be thinking of him.

“This is too dangerous, Your Highness Ryan, please think twice!”

Ryan’s mansion was short of staff, so some affairs were also handled by the assistant.

Such as personnel recruitment, financial management, and material procurement…

That’s right, it was the assistant Morick who approved that maid’s entry into the mansion.

Although Morick quickly admitted his mistake to him afterwards and confessed the person who bribed him, there was more than one person who entered through the back door.

The briber was never successfully captured, and the money Morick had received was never handed over.

“Don’t worry, I have my own sense of proportion, this matter doesn’t need to be discussed again.”

So other than the first test, Ryan didn’t let Morick know about the other tests, especially the one that used the guardian deity.

Seeing that Ryan didn’t intend to change his mind, Morick had to change the subject:

“Your Highness, do you have any leads on who poisoned the food?”

But it was similar to the situation when discussing that maid before, Morick’s face was full of anxiety and unease.

Like a murderer eager to eliminate traces of the crime.

“Not yet, I’ll leave this matter to you.”

And the reason why Ryan promoted him to assistant in the first place was mainly because Morick was calm and organized, and blocked an arrow for him in battle.

(How boring.)

Sighing softly in his heart, Ryan looked out the window with a blank expression.

Compared to the people around him, the green waters and mountains in the distance were more pleasing to the eye.

At least… they wouldn’t betray him.

“Miss Haggia… are you really going to do that?”

At the hall, five maids looked in horror at a certain blonde head maid who had just taken office.

“Of course!”

Flora said confidently, “There’s no need to be so afraid, His Highness Ryan isn’t a dragon, he won’t eat you, and besides, haven’t I done it many times?”

The maids still couldn’t accept it, but Polina, who looked the weakest, took a deep breath and mustered a little courage, saying: “I-I will try my best!”

“That’s right, that’s the spirit!” Flora gave a thumbs up, and then said,

“It’s almost time, everyone stand to both sides quickly, Polina, you take the lead on the other side.”

The maids had to brace themselves and line up on both sides of the hall, and deeply regretted their stupid decision to take on the work near the hall.

Before long, the door opened, and Flora showed a sweet smile to the black-haired boy who walked in, leading the way and saying loudly:

“Welcome back, Your Highness Ryan!”

Including Polina, the others were half a beat or a beat slower, the voices were scattered, some were loud, some were soft, and some were panicked and completely out of tune, sounding like strange screams, the scene was extremely funny.

The maids’ faces turned pale instantly, their eyes full of fear and despair.

But Flora wasn’t too worried, because the Crown Prince was like the champion of the no-smiling contest, completely ignoring this scene, not even looking at everyone, and walking towards the study.

“Okay, everyone can disband.”

Flora said softly, then quickly stepped forward, wanting to catch up with the Crown Prince—

Plop.

Her body unsteady, she fell to the ground.

The maids, who had just felt relieved a moment ago, became terrified again.

The assistant Morick, who came in with the Crown Prince, showed an angry expression towards her.

Even the Crown Prince stopped and stared at her with a playful gaze.

But Flora didn’t act stupid to dispel this somewhat awkward scene, quickly got up, and followed behind the assistant as if nothing had happened.

“Don’t you have anything to say?”

The assistant said annoyed.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Morick, I made you laugh.”

Flora politely expressed her apologies to him.

“Not to me, but to… His Highness?”

The assistant turned his head and saw that the Crown Prince had already walked far away, glared at her again, and then chased after him.

Flora also quickly followed, but at the door of the study, he was stopped by the assistant.

“Don’t come in… Go prepare dinner, come back in half an hour.”

“Okay… Do you need to prepare a portion for Mr. Morick?” Flora said.

“No need.”

The assistant was still very dissatisfied, or rather, he simply didn’t like Flora in every way, glared at her, and then slammed the door shut.

(What’s going on, did I do something to make him hate me?)

Although Morick’s attitude towards her wasn’t very good from the first day she came here, it suddenly became so much worse when they met again today… Even if Flora wasn’t afraid of other people’s cold eyes, she couldn’t help but feel strange.

Returning to the kitchen, cooperating with Chef Cook to complete the final procedures, Flora prepared in the dining room with the old butler.

“I’ll go inform His Highness, you take a rest for a while.” The old butler said with some distress.

Flora didn’t reject the old butler’s kindness.

Her treatment and mood today were like a roller coaster, and she had been working continuously all day… If it were any other normal girl, she would have already given up.

Although she was indeed not an ordinary person, that’s not how others saw her, and she didn’t plan to reveal too much, so she decided to show a little weakness, deliberately showing a bit of fatigue, stretching, etc.

Especially with a hidden guard always watching in the dining room.

Before long, the Crown Prince arrived, and Flora quickly recovered her spirits and started the dinner service.

After dinner, Flora was about to clean up when she was stopped by the Crown Prince.

“Go to my room.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Flora said readily, but she couldn’t help but feel uneasy in her heart.

(Crap, is he going to use the power of the guardian deity to test me again?)

Honestly, if she was asked two or three times, Flora was confident that she could get away with it.

But if the Crown Prince was bored and started playing some exhaustive method… then she would be screwed.

But this was just one possibility, and it wasn’t enough to stop Flora in her tracks… What made her relieved was that the place the Crown Prince was going to wasn’t the bedroom, but the study.

Closing the door, the Crown Prince resumed the playful expression he had on the stairs before:

“Is this what you think is the right thing to do?”
