Cecilia’s POV
After leaving Klaus’s castle, I hurried back to the palace overnight.
"Princess, you’ve finally returned." Eileen took my cloak and promptly offered me a warm cup of tea.
"Eileen, how is Emilia doing in the kitchen?" I asked after taking a sip of the tea.
"Emilia? She’s been very quiet, no major issues, and she’s made several delicious meals and desserts."
"Overall, I think Emilia seems very beautiful and well-behaved." Eileen wiped my hands with a damp cloth, looking at me blankly while praising Emilia.
"Is that so?" I chuckled inwardly. Emilia was indeed the woman Klaus had his eyes on. In just one week, she had managed to win over even my closest maid.
"Eileen, call Emilia over. I have something to discuss with her."
I smiled at Eileen, a plan that had been swirling in my mind beginning to take shape for the first time.
"Don’t worry, Eileen, I won’t make things difficult for her," I said softly, curling my lips. "She’s a key part of my plan."
