“Calm down, this is just a frame-up.”
The Crown Prince was calm.
“When they planned this, they already expected it to fail, and that I would eventually catch them.”
In the past, Assistant Morick would have been ashamed to restrain his surprise and panic.
But faced with this Canglang symbol, Morick couldn’t calm down at all.
And from what he knew, the Crown Prince’s mood was definitely not as calm as he was showing.
“Your Highness, this maid does come from a northern family.”
Morick quickly reminded, in case the Crown Prince’s judgment was biased.
“That Flora Haggia also comes from a northern family.”
The Crown Prince immediately found a reason to refute, and unusually showed a distinctively sarcastic smile.
But Morick knew very well that this was not an act.
The Crown Prince really had a filter for that person and his knights.
Fortunately, the Crown Prince only admired them and had not really lost his mind. He quickly said:
“Tell the Azure Knight Order about this and see their reaction before making a decision.”
“Yes, sir.”
Morick quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
But he quickly remembered a recent rumor… Could it be that His Highness wants to take this opportunity to gather information?
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Unfortunately, this did not deviate from the plan to wait and see, so Morick had to give up temporarily and take his leave to go home.
Ryan did not return to his bedroom, but came to the study again.
There was one thing he didn’t tell Morick.
He took out the document written by the blonde girl, as well as the letter he had received from his fiancée not long ago, and made a simple comparison.
The handwriting was almost identical.
The difference was that the former was more immature.
Ryan showed a meaningful smile.
“Interesting.”
For Flora, the new day was something to look forward to.
With the internal spy having been cleared out, not only could her new system be implemented smoothly, but the capture of the Crown Prince could also be carried out like a raging wave.
Of course, the first thing to do was to appease the other maids.
After all, one person had disappeared inexplicably, and anyone would be afraid.
The Crown Prince’s already bad reputation would become even worse…
“Everyone, let me explain. Kna has indeed been fired because she committed an unforgivable error.
The specific details cannot be disclosed, but I hope everyone can consciously abide by the rules of the mansion and not take any chances!”
Flora did not cover up the matter, nor did she foolishly talk about the assassin poisoning to cause panic… even if most people could associate it.
The point of doing this was to increase the authority of the notices and regulations in the mansion, and indirectly increase the Crown Prince’s prestige.
After all, terrorist rule was actually a manifestation of corruption.
“Yes, ma’am!”
The maids answered in unison.
Honestly, they had looked down on this clumsy blonde girl at first.
Even after she became a personal maid, they only thought she had picked up dog shit luck.
So when the blonde girl was later driven to the kitchen, they were more gloating and mocking.
But the blonde girl’s next persistent hard work and her display of top-notch cooking skills made many people admire her in their hearts, even if they didn’t say it out loud.
The only regret was that no matter how talented she was, offending the Crown Prince could only stop her there.
Unexpectedly, the blonde girl dared to publicly confront the Crown Prince, and was therefore re-enabled and promoted to head maid… In addition to the shock, they were all somewhat admiring of her.
The key was that the blonde girl was not stingy at all, and generously answered everyone’s questions.
“Note that His Highness does not like people to offend him for no reason, but he does not reject or blame our reasonable arguments.
As long as it is reasonable and compliant, anyone can make suggestions to His Highness…
If you are still afraid or do not want to show your face, you can tell me first, and I can submit it to His Highness in writing with your name on it.”
The blonde girl handled things fairly and justly, but she was not inhuman.
Her usually dull and clumsy appearance had not improved much, and she still fell several times a day.
But after a long time, they all noticed that the blonde girl’s balance was not good, and she was not doing it on purpose.
Moreover, every time she fell, she did not let out even a whimper, and immediately got up strongly, and continued to do what she had to do.
When it came to serious matters, she would suddenly become very serious and reliable, and would always give people a feeling of not being angry, but not losing intimacy.
This was not because she had official authority due to her promotion.
When Polina and Yara sought her help and asked for advice, she would change into an extremely friendly and eager, gentle appearance, afraid that you would not learn.
So in just a few days, this group of maids accepted and became accustomed to the blonde girl as the head maid.
In the words of some people, it was:
“Oh my god, am I crazy? I actually think Flora has aura and leadership qualities!”
“No, you’re not crazy. Miss Haggia has a big sister style. My knight brother is like that, serious and responsible, gentle and upright…”
“What the hell, you wouldn’t be interested in your own brother, would you?”
In any case, thanks to the maids’ change of opinion on her, Flora had successfully turned the Crown Prince’s credibility crisis into an opportunity, and took the opportunity to distribute the booklet with the new rules to everyone.
“The new system will be implemented tomorrow. It may be a little difficult to get used to at first, but don’t worry.
As long as everyone works in a regular manner as before, the salary and benefits will only increase and not decrease.”
Flora moderately motivated and appeased everyone.
“As for the problem of busy work, a new batch of people will arrive soon. This time we will adopt a new training system.
I hope everyone can guide the younger generations more…
Of course, the performance of the trainers and the younger generations will also be included in the performance appraisal, and you will be given corresponding rewards and vacation subsidies, so don’t worry.”
“Yes, ma’am!”
Seeing the expectant and joyful expressions on everyone’s faces, Flora breathed a sigh of relief in her heart and then announced the dismissal.
“Yara, wait a minute.”
Seeing a maid who was about to walk away, Flora chased after her.
“Flo… Miss Haggia, what’s the matter?”
Yara glanced at the others who were not far away and were still looking at her, and quickly saluted.
This was not to say that Yara was still disrespectful to Flora, and was subconsciously about to call her by her first name, but that Flora had previously said privately that she should not be so polite.
After all, in Flora’s view, the head maid and the ordinary maids were just ordinary workers.
It was too stupid to divide them into different classes after work.
Moreover, her surface age was the smallest among the maids.
Even counting her actual age, she was only a year older than the oldest maid…
She didn’t want to be called respectfully every day even after she had become a girl.
Of course, she was not stupid enough not to know that Yara was right to call her that in formal occasions.
It was just that the “please” and the salute were superfluous.
But she didn’t intend to make things difficult for Yara on this matter, and immediately went straight to the point:
“Today I want you to be responsible for part of the work of the personal maids.”
“…Okay.”
Since that day, although Yara had later actively responded to Flora’s call to welcome and greet the Crown Prince, she had never taken over the work of approaching the hall and the Crown Prince’s restaurant again.
However, out of trust in Flora, Yara was a little scared, but still agreed.
“Then, you will be responsible for the service work in the restaurant later.”
Unfortunately, Flora was planning to trick her this time.
