"I have to agree with you. This all feels too easy. I never expected the Imperial Palace to hand me this agreement this quickly and efficiently. Don't you feel the same way, Mary?"
Layla asked as she waved the letter she had received.

And yet, Layla treated this letter like it was worth less than a toy.
'What a wonderful miss I have chosen to serve. She is not afraid of anything.'
Mary admired her young miss before she chose to answer her.

I am sure we will face much trouble once we contact local businesses."
