Chapter 339.2
“Prepare breakfast here in the reception room. His Highness will come straight here, so ensure the preparations are seamless,” Eugene instructed.
“Yes, Your Highness,” the maid acknowledged.
Eugene gave additional directions to the other maids. “Inform Count Oscar that I will see her this afternoon.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
She turned to another maid and said, “You, go to the chamberlain now and retrieve the reports. You don’t need to bring them yourself; I will call for them when I need them.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
As the preparations for breakfast neared completion, the king arrived. Eugene welcomed Kasser with a warm smile but soon realized, a little too late, that she had momentarily forgotten her external position, which required her to show respect when they met alone.
Eugene quickly adjusted her posture, lowering her head, but Kasser approached her without hesitation. He naturally enveloped her waist with his arm and planted a tender kiss on her cheek.
“Did you sleep well last night?” he inquired softly.
