Since she was back, Laina occupied her time and mind with her royal duties. In her absence, Margaret had done everything she could to ensure things ran smoothly.
"Well done, Margaret," Laina praised after hearing her handmaid's report of Kinshearth, "Looks like the kingdom can run hands-free without me."
"You over flatter me, Your Highness. I am merely doing what needs to be done," Margaret replied with a smile.
For the rest of the day, Laina dove deep into her work. With the success of the Yellow Villa as well as a few other ventures, the kingdom's income grew higher and higher with each passing day.
Soon, Laina knew they would be able to clear all of Kinshearth's debts. Hopefully, that could be achieved before she ascended the throne as Queen. Margaret noticed that the princess was fully focused on her work.
