Chapter 29 - Ch 23 White and soft green

Few days later, and Alice comes to the Grand Duke's Manor.

"Welcome, master Alice. As you know Duke Eric and sir Harry isn't here at the moment. Therefore, could you help me in assisting the Grand Duke's Manor for the time being?" Mr. Dylan is a new butler appointed at Eric's Manor.

He is so friendly and a responsible person. However, he is so strict when it comes to the management of the Manor. He was trusted by Eric since Eric was 18.

" But before that, let me show you your room, this way master Alice."

Alice follows Mr. Dylan from the back. As soon as Mr. Dylan opens the door, Alice is mesmerised by the alluring combination of the color.

"For now, the management of the Manor is not too complicated. As I have settled most of them including taxes and employees wages. We are still recruiting for maids employments. Therefore, I need your help to choose the best maids that will work while you and Duke Eric is away from the Manor. Few more maids still in need and of course the head maid position is still on vacant. We only want to limit the amount of people who enter the Manor, only the trusted ones for fraud prevention.

Alice nods she then walks into the interview room and sits on the chair crossed legs in front of all 4 candidates.

"Greetings to all candidates. I am master Alice. The Grand Duke Eric's representative.

Tell me why you must be recruited in this Manor start with you Mikayla."

Alice talks while looking at their resume one by one.

"I... think I am really good in tidy things up and also I am the trusted one. All secrets of this Manor will be kept securely with me." Miss Mikayla answers Alice's question.

"How can you proof it?" Alice glances at Mikayla.

"Ye.. s? I.. I will not tell anyone about it and keep them until the day I die."

"Next, Miss June. Tell me why I must recruit you?"

Alice looks at the second candidate.

"I have experienced in working at one of the nobles in the west, Duke Noah of the West."
