Ashley woke up early for her first day. Today, a lesson was scheduled to take place with Countess Mariette as her first instructor. The woman who looked like a hawk, ready to snatch her any time with just her gaze. She was sure that today would be mentally and emotionally tiring for her.
The maids came knocking on her door minutes later. They helped her with her bath and also prepared a new set of dress and sandals for her to change into. After that, she ate her hearty breakfast and was sent to a private room which will serve as her study room.
Ashley couldn't help but suddenly be grateful towards Ramier realizing how she was well accommodated. Everything she needed and didn't even ask for was already prepared for her. She promised herself that she would try to do her best on her first day. It was only her way of showing her gratitude to Ramier; by excelling in her studies.
