Chapter 1741  Plans For A Future Monarch.

Time flew by too fast.

Days and weeks flashed in the blink of an eye, with many not knowing where the time had gone.

4 A.M.

It was still dark outside, yet Tilda was rolling restlessly on her bed.

Sigh...

'There's no use trying.'

Till now, she still couldn't believe she would be leaving for Dafaran in just 3 days.

Once home, it might take years for her to return.

'Now that I'm 16, Big Brother said the plan is to have me on the throne before I turn 18.' Tilda thought, massaging her fingers thoughtfully.

She was already 16 years and 4 months old.

So at most in a year and 8 months, she will ascend the throne.

It could even be earlier, if everything goes according to plan.

Even then, she still might not be able to return to Baymard until another year when she has properly stabilized her position.

Tilda couldn't help feeling the pressure of monarchy already pressing on her shoulders.

Self-doubt sometimes etched its way into her heart. But as her brother Landon often said, if you don't do it, how do you know you won't succeed?

Sigh...

Heading to her bathroom, she decided to wash up and prepare for the day.

After all, today is indeed a special day for her.

....

2 hours later, Tilda headed downstairs and straight to the kitchen for a meal.

Breakfast was typically done for everyone by 6:30~9 A.M.

"Good morning, Miss Dina!"

"Morning, miss Dina."

"Good Morning Uncle Nathan, Aunt Daniella."

Tilda greeted the couple warmly, allowing Daniella to pat her head.

Well, the couple were Gary's parents.

Although their son, the Navy Admiral, moved out of the palace a long time ago and married, the couple still stayed in the palace.

After all, they were the palace's head butler and head maid overseeing everyone here.

It was amazing that not long after Mother Kim gave birth to Kora, they too were expected a baby of their own.

Yes.

The 'old' couple now had a 14-month-old son, Despien, Gary's little brother.

When Gary got the news after returning from a mission, he was shocked and in disbelief that his old mother could have a baby.

Well, any woman or man above 25 was seen as very old by the general public.

Tilda felt the little boy was very cute.

Although Daniella had been on maternity leave in the palace, she was very restless, since she lived in the same place she was working in.

Firstly, her job as head overseer of all maids did not require her to do the work like laundry, cleaning, dusting, cooking and whatnot.

Nope.

Daniella even had secretaries, who would make schedules, do paperwork and other activities concerning the maids.

But she had to do so with the consent of Daniella.

Here, Daniella was like the boss of her palace maid 'company,' sometimes handling meetings on what detergents they must use… what brand sponsors have requested they partner with them, and what blinds should be used in guest rooms for particular guests.

How do these guests like their tea or coffee? What are their habits? Do they like the room cold or hot when they arrive?

What are their schedules like while staying here?

Do they need bigger beds like the Giants?

Do they eat spicy foods? Everyone who walks into the palace, even if it's just a day visitor, must always be pleased with their experience.

This means the floors must always be immaculate, the walls exude brilliance, and the atmosphere fresh without any foul scents.

Hell!

Do you know how massive the palace is?

(:>T^T<:)

.

It's not a joke when one says Daniella might be running a cleaning company here.

Every day, there was tons and tons of work to do, especially during the night after lights out.

That's Right.

The cleaners maximize the nighttime to ensure all public areas are squeaky clean. So you best believe the cleansing was 24/7.

There were 4 main shifts, depending on whether they started in the Early Morning, late morning, Afternoon and evening.

So while Daniella did not necessarily have to touch a broom, it was still busy for her who always ensured everything was organized and done properly, since the royal palace often had guests, especially foreign royal ones.

That wasn't a lie.

At least 3 weeks in a month, there were always guests staying over.

There was a time when she was on maternity leave, and everything almost went haywire.

It was funny to see her carrying the baby while running back and forth in the nick of time.

As for Nathan, as the head butler, he oversaw all garden works, answered calls to the household phone, and greeted guests at the door.

He also assisted in the planning of events and dinner parties, oversaw table settings, served drinks and food, worked with his wife to budget for items they needed before sending the list to the accountant and so on.

In addition, he handled matters like calling plumbers, construction workers and other maintenance projects around the house.

The official drivers and stable workers also answered to him.

Yes. There was a royal stable at the far back, surrounded by open plains for the royals to ride around.

.

All in all, the couple were very busy people. And sure enough, they are here at 6 AM to ensure breakfast is going according to today's menu options.

"Well, you're up early, little Dina. Breakfast is almost ready. So why don't you look at the menu and tell us what you want?"

Tilda nodded warmly.

Dina was her makeup name while in Baymard.

Looking at the menu, it didn't take long before she was served according to her choices.

Looking at the maids rushing with trolleys away, she knew some of the foreign guests in the many guest buildings should be up by now.

Stuffing her mouth, she ate quickly, waving at everyone before leaving the scene.

6:55 AM.

Standing outside, she saw 2 men in uniform, one seated at the front, and another standing outside, holding the door open.

"Miss Dina. It's time to go."

"Yeah...."

Tilda replied, taking a deep breath and stepping into the vehicle.

Alright.

Time for her mission briefing!

In 3 days, she will be leaving Baymard for good.
