Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort

The weather was nice on the following day.

In the morning, the children woke up and promptly went to Sherlyn, asking if the magician troupe had arrived.

Laughing, she told them the troupe was on their way.

The kids were delighted. At breakfast, they told Charlotte all about the magician troupe enthusiastically.

Charlotte casually asked what the magician troupe was all about, so Sherlyn explained it to her briefly.

Her answer stunned Charlotte. Although she had heard from Ellie that a magician troupe was arriving at the manor to perform for them, she had no idea it would be such a big scale.

More than a dozen staff would be entering the manor with their equipment and setting up a stage for their performance at night.

This means the assassins from Erihal will get a chance to sneak into the manor. That’s dangerous!

At that thought, Charlotte hastened to convince Sherlyn to cancel the magician troupe’s performance or at least get only a few of them to perform at a smaller scale.

Alas, Sherlyn was adamant about having the magic performance. She claimed it was not nice to break her promise when she had given the children her word. Besides, the magician troupe was about to reach the manor.
