There are five etiquette teachers that Sebastiene submitted, two were royal tutors and the others were highly recommended by nobles. Though the royal tutors are considered the best at teaching, their backgrounds are not the bests.
There were two tutors that caught my attention. One was a male of common birth and the other was the daughter of a Marquis. They both have excellent backgrounds and above all, are highly regarded amongst the nobles.
"Seb, contact Sir Rolly Moran and lady Blithe Cole." I gave him the files with the two tutors' name on top. "Have mother write an invitation letter to them to become our teachers."
"Yes, my lady." Sebastiene took the files and set it aside.
I looked at the next file. It was what happened to Marionne's aunt and cousins. After witnessing the attack during the knight's ceremony, I was actually expecting them to start spreading rumors about it.
To my surprise, they did not say anything of the sort. I read further and got confused about it. I mean, they would be quite famous inside social circles if they talked about us.
"Seb." I looked towards a busy looking Sebastiene. Busy preparing my snacks. "This report said that saintess Sachi prevented them from talking about House Castellan. How?"
Sebastiene looked up from the plate and chuckled.
"Saintess Sachi made them unable to open their mouths to speak about Castellans. Like literally not open it." Sebastiene chuckled.
"It's an ability?" I asked writing down a note that says to thank the saintess.
"Yes, my lady." Sebastiene nodded as he carried the plate filled with snacks and a cup of tea towards my desk.
"Remind me to visit her when we are in their area." I instructed him. "Also, send fifty thousand gold coins to every temple and have mother write a letter with it. The letter will include something along the lines of, please refrain from informing outsiders."
"Noted, my lady." Sebastiene answered as he put on a pair of round glasses which shocked me.
"I didn't know you wear glasses?" I lifted a brow at him.
"Does it look good on me?" Sebastiene asked while fixing his glasses and looking stern.
"You look like Ragnar Ajax." I teased him.
His expression immediately turned into a comedic stoic, copying Ragnar. We both ended up laughing.
"Stop playing around, we need to finish these before lunch." I chuckled and playfully scolded Sebastiene. "I still have to meet the Knights in the afternoon."
"Speaking of the knights, my lady, Sir Anderson would also like to be present during the meeting." Sebastiene informed me.
"Okay." I nodded and read the file in front of me. "Also, bring a map of the entire estate from the library later. We will need it for planning."
"Understood, my lady." Sebastiene smiled.
We heard a knock on the door making both of us turn our heads towards it. Sebastiene opened the door and checked who was outside.
"My lady, Klaus would like to have and audience with you." Sebastiene announced without opening the door widely.
"Let him in." I motioned with my left hand without glancing up.
Klause Enin, my advisor, came in gracefully. He was dressed in an all white pants and long sleeved undershirt. His bluish hair was neatly combed and cascading down his back like a clear waterfalls.
"My lady." Klaus bowed down in curtsy as soon as he entered the door.
"Have a seat, Klaus." I invited him to sit on the chair in front of my desk. "Do you need something?"
Klaus sat in front of me in a relaxed manner. He even crossed his legs!
"I heard that Her grace will have a tea party in a few days." He started with a small smile.
"Yes, that is true." I glanced up from the paper I was was reading. "Is there something you want to do for the tea party?"
"Not do, my lady." Klaus smiled. His eyes turned into crescent moons. "I would like to add something."
I stared at the smiling Klaus in front of me.
What could he want to add to my mother's tea party?
Sebastiene smiled on my side as if also knowing what Klaus wanted to add.
I sighed.
"What would you like to add, Klaus?"
