"My prince" I knocked on the door to Christopher's office room. I could hear the rustle of the papers and the muffled sound of a scratching pen.

"Come in" he called out behind the door.

My hand grasps the cold doorknob and entered. The scent of ink immediately filled my nose along with the strong smell of tea and sugar. "Greeting to the crown prince, Prince Christopher" I bowed, lifting up both ends of my attire.

"Nanny, what is the reason of your visit today?" He asks, despite being such a lovely and kind child, he had developed such a mature personality in the field. His blue eyes stared on his paperwork, his hand working diligently with his pen.

"It's about the 3rd prince, Prince Charles"

His writing went silent at the name of his younger brother.

"Did he tattle on you again, Nanny?"

"My prince-

"That brat really causes trouble, doesn't he?"

"My prince!"

Christopher flinched at my loud voice, it seems that Queen Mia had disciplined him harshly before. "My prince, you must set an example for the people" walking around his table, I stood beside him. "I, your nanny, has seen you grow when I first met you when you were just 10 years old... I know that you can be better than this" I caressed his hair.

He closed his eyes, leaning against my hand.

"Nanny..." he sighed, now leaning his head against my chest. "Nanny is the only one who cares about me"

I smile, embracing his head close to me. "Dear child"

"Head maid"

"Hm? Oh, Genevieve. Are you done doing what I have asked you to do?" I asked as I sewed the Alex's pants together. "I hope you did, the crown Princess herself had ordered it after all"

"Madam"

"Oh my"

I turned to see 5 extra maids beside Genevieve. "May I ask who you girls are?" I asked, putting down the still unfinished pants down on my lap.

The first girl with low pigtails bowed, raising up her dress as she bowed. "Good afternoon, Head maid. My name is Olivia"

"Elizabeth" another girl bowed, her skin pale while a pin held her bangs to the side, she looked quite frail
