A side of her became emotional.

‘He probably understands me because he has a daughter.’

Karina did not speak out her thoughts.

Crashing!

The sound of a falling object was heard over the wall.

Karina hurried out of the warehouse and entered the house.

“Oh my”

As soon as she stepped into the kitchen, Claude muttered as if sighing.

Karina looked at the food and chairs rolling on the floor with an absurd face.

Roland, who had been trying to deal with the situation somehow and froze, fumbled with a slightly stiff face.

“Melissa said she was hungry, so I wanted to find something to eat…….”

Karina soon noticed the situation.

Most of the food was in the cupboard or hanging on the wall.

It was a height that could not be reached by the children.

I guess the children decided to bring all the chairs together and take something edible out of the cupboard.

Karina was lost in thought for a moment.

She had no appetite at all, perhaps because of the shock she received earlier that day, but now it’s lunch time.

The children must be hungry.

Melissa hid behind Roland and said

“…But a cat appeared and….”

“Cat?”

When Karina asked back, Roland shook his head hard.

“It was definitely not a cat.”

Melissa angrily refuted Roland’s words.

“No, it was Cat!”

“How is that a cat? It looks completely different!”

“It’s a cat. The eyes and hair are weird, but it’s definitely a cat!”

Karina who was in the middle of the children who were arguing was lost for a moment and barely opened her mouth.

“Is it because of a cat?”

“It wasn’t a cat. It was something weird.”

“It was a cat.”

Melissa still said a word stubbornly.

Claude made a complex and subtle look, and he carefully opened his mouth to Melissa.

“It’s a cat.”

“Really?”

Contrary to Roland, who opened his round eyes wide, Melissa frowned even more behind Roland even though Claude took her side.

“Yeah. There are a lot of unique cats here.”

Karina tilted her head.

‘What do you mean by a unique cat?’

Karina thought she knew cats pretty well.

Sir Renke’s mansion also raised several cats.

A cat is just a cat.

If Roland didn’t think of it as a cat, and Melissa thought it was a cat with strange eyes and fur,

‘Maybe it’s not a cat.’

But Claude said it was a cat. Maybe he did not want to tell them what it really was. 

‘So, I can’t ask them about it right now.’

Karina thought she’ll ask the children later what it was when Claude goes back. 

“Come to think of it, there’s no servants here. This place is usually empty….”

Karina shook her head.

“It’s okay. I don’t need servants.”

“We need three people.”

Claude said as if he didn’t hear Karina.

“Your Grace, we’re only going to stay here for a while. We don’t need servants.”

Karina quickly continued before Claude said something.

“You said you worked as a maid before, did you do the cooking or the cleaning. Which one was it?”

Strictly speaking, neither was it, but Karina said.

“I was in charge of cleaning.”

“Then I’ll send the chef.”

“……?”

Karina blinked her eyes.

“Didn’t I tell your daughter our chef is good at cooking.

“Chef?”

Karina looked at Claude quickly.

Are you saying you’re going to let your chef go to us?

The chef at the duke’s residence was not someone anyone can have.

They were veterans who had been cooking for decades, but they were also knowledgeable about medicine and other things.

In addition, if the chef comes to them to prepare meals for her and her children then who will cook for the duke’s family?

Claude said as if she had read her thoughts.

“Kitchen assistants are good at cooking, too.”

“I’m not bad at cooking either.”

Claude sighed.

“I know why you want to refuse. You might be thinking it’s burdensome.”

“…….”

“But you’d better not refuse. I will also assign escorts for you and your children.”

Karina’s eyes got bigger.

“That doesn’t mean this house is dangerous. Even if you don’t have a personal escort, you can go around freely.”

Claude looks at her and think for a moment then turn his head.

“Children’s educational problems remain.”

“You said you’d call a tutor, right?”

“Yes. I think they can learn with my sister.”

“Yes…? Not your daughter……?”

“Daughter?”

Claude’s one eyebrow went up.

“Madam, I don’t know what you were thinking, but I’ve never been married. Of course, I don’t have children.”

“…Excuse me.”

Karina was surprised by two facts.

The first was that Claude had a sister young enough to learn from a tutor.

‘Then, the princess that he told Melissa earlier…’

It was clearly pointing to the younger sister.

The second was a very serious problem, that the duke suggested learning from the same tutor as his sister.

“How dare my children and princess…… Duke, please reconsider that.”

“I promised Madam that I would call the best tutor.”

Claude said in a firm voice.

“So, I have to keep that promise.”

“Aren’t there a lot of good tutors in Tors?”

“Yeah, but there’s only one best tutor. I hope you don’t make me a liar, Madam.”

Karina swallowed a sigh.

Claude has already made a decision.

‘Yeah, it’s a good thing for Roland and Melissa.’

Come to think of it, Claude had his own good reason.

In the end, he’s showing interest in Roland’s talent and now he’s paying attention to it.

Of course, that’s why he insists on attaching the best tutor.

Karina nodded her head.

“Okay.”

“Of course, the day and time should be different. Because they have a big age difference.”

“How old.….”

“How old is Madam’s eldest child?”

“He’s 8 years old”.

“She’s four years older than him.”

Karina blinked her eyes. Claude looked three or four years older than herself.

But his sister was 12 years old, and she seemed to be a late child. They have a big age gap.

“I’m sure Madam doesn’t want the children’s education to be delayed either. They should start tomorrow right away.”

Claude rang a silver bell in the living room.

“If Madam needs anything, don’t go out and find someone just ring this bell, then someone will come running.”

Claude added kindly.

“This bell is all over the mansion. Servants in need of help can also use it. So don’t think it’s weird if a servant rings the bell.”

After a while, a well-dressed servant appeared.

“Bring Miss Terrace.”

“Okay.”

Miss Terrace was a strict-looking woman with pale skin and fierce eyes.

She greeted Claude with perfect manners and opened her mouth.

“Do you want me to teach these kids?”

“Yes. Separate time from Astrid.”

“I refuse.”

Karina wasn’t surprised.

If you work as a tutor for a princess, you will be a noble spirit of considerable status.

You wouldn’t want to teach common people children you’ve never seen in your life.

“Ms. Terrace.”

Claude opened her mouth as if warning, but was buried in strong protests by Miss Terrace.

“Your Grace, I’m overwhelmed enough with the princess. What do you mean, teach two more people?”
