Chapter 334: The Convergence At The Mansion
Anna’s entourage arrived at the mansion, where Anryr, Rosalie, and the servants eagerly gathered at the main entrance to welcome back their lady and the knights.
"Welcome home, my lady," greeted the steward warmly as soon as Anna descended from the carriage.
Rosalie and the other servants bowed respectfully in her presence. The knights dismounted their horses, and the stablemen quickly took charge, leading the horses to the stable.
"Thank you, Anryr. It’s been a while. How have you and Rosalie been?" Anna reciprocated the greetings.
"We are both well, my lady," the steward replied with a respectful nod. He, too, extended his courtesy to Eric and the other knights.
"How has the mansion been faring? Is everything running smoothly?" inquired the second-in-command knight, seeking an update on the mansion’s affairs.
"Yes, Sir Navin. As you already know, our most recent event was the visit from Their Graces, the Duke and Duchess of Sanad. Apart from that, it has been a routine," Anryr informed, providing a brief overview of the activities.
"Her Highness Princess Callis and her nanny should’ve departed by now and soon to arrive. Have you made the necessary preparations for their stay?" asked Eric.
"Yes. As soon as I received your message about the Mederian Royal siblings’ temporary stay, I made all the arrangements. However, if I may ask, what is the occasion for their visit?" Anryr inquired.
The steward and the mansion’s servants remained oblivious to Anna’s training and the reason for Kiev and Callis’s presence to monitor her.
"That... I’ll tell you a bit later," Eric responded, signalling the princess to maintain the secrecy for now. She nodded in understanding.
