They only hire additional staff during the candidate selection period, so I decided to try my luck — and they accepted me,” Iolanta chattered happily. “I’m so glad I got assigned to you. Some girls say their candidates are absolutely unbearable! But I got lucky,” she smiled—making me smile too. “How old are you?” I suddenly became very curious. “Twenty-four,” the governess answered shyly. “Already a spinster compared to you.” “I wouldn’t be so sure if I were you.

I liked the nicknames that she called them. “We could use Eva’s magic to assist us,” I said. Eva grinned at me. “You are my favorite.” Rachel rolled her eyes. “I thought I was your favorite for not making you wear the fancy pants clothes that Nurse insisted on.” Angie wrinkled her nose. “I can’t believe that you forced us to have a governess, this isn’t Victorian England.”

I hope you had a splendid night’s rest?” I asked, as I watched her stand up, slowly, from her curtsy. “I had adequate rest through the night, Your Highness.

Because being surrounded by children brings me an immense amount of joy. “Luna Mia, it is so nice to see you, what brings you to this part of House Valaires?” Lady Irene a

No one can penalize you here.” “They can’t even see us.” I narrowed my eyes, on how she knew this, with my hands running through the shelf too. My lips spread out in a wide smile as I brought out a book, sniffling it. That understanding mother I never had. Who thought I was a freak for reading books, or chasing knowledge as a female. She was Lady Archer.

She turned back to Elsa, “I know they seem like normal staff here on the estate, but Mr. Edwards does not hire simple staff. We all are highly educated.” She reached up and tipped Elsa's mouth closed, “I am more than just a Head housemaid, I am a former governess. I attended the top finishing schools in Europe.
