Villain Princess.

Prince Brian and Prince Charles both looked in Aurora’s direction.

"Menial work?" Prince Charles was confused. "We have enough workers here to help you if you need it. There’s no need to let this dirty trash to do your work."

"Perhaps, there are some confidential matters?" Prince Brian asked this instead. HIs eyes gleamed faintly as he looked at Aurora with some interest. "If other workers were to know those, they have to be silenced and it might be a bit troublesome. But for this one, you don’t have to worry so much. Once he crosses the line, it’s very easy to draw one’s sword."

In other words, if Prince Lester knew too much, Aurora could kill him without the need to worry about the consequences.

It was simple as that.

"Oh right." Prince Charles clapped his hand and then grinned. "Just do that, Cousin Aurora."

"Should I ask for permission from His Majesty?" Aurora asked.

Prince Brian shook his head. "You can anything you want to him. We give you our permission."

"Yes!" Prince Charles grinned.

Aurora nodded and looked at Prince Lester on the ground. "Get up and follow me."

Prince Lester’s body trembled slightly before he raised his head. His dark blue eyes still looked as dull as before and his movements were rather stiff. He stood up and lowered his head in front of Aurora.

Looking at him like this, Aurora could see that Prince Lester was thin but he was still a bit taller than her. His face looked slightly pale with some bruises visible.

Some deeper wounds might leave marks on his arms and legs.

"So boring." Prince Charles snorted.

Prince Brian looked at the back and saw a knight coming. "It’s almost time for your class, Charles."

Prince Charles’ body stiffened when he heard that. He looked at the knight who came towards him and quickly turned around.

"I’ll be going first!"

"Your Highness!"

Seeing the chase between the prince and the knight, Aurora was speechless.

Yes, she was sure that Prince Charles hadn’t changed at all.

Shaking her head lightly, Aurora curtsied to Prince Brian. "I’ll go back first, Your Highness."

Prince Brian nodded and watched as Aurora led Prince Lester away. The corner of his lips curled up slightly and then he turned to look at the building where the Queen was watching him.

Seeing the Queen’s dark face when she saw him, Prince Brian chuckled and then walked away.

Aurora didn’t notice all this as she went to the room prepared to her. William, Mr. Wren, and also Les were following her for this trip. There were also some other maidservants and knights, but they would not interact with Aurora directly unless necessary.

After entering the room, Aurora took a seat and looked at Prince Lester who followed behind her.

William guarded by the door while Mr. Wren and Les tactfully went out to do other things. They didn’t want to disturb Aurora.

Prince Lester stopped the moment he entered the room, unsure how he should react. He simply looked at Aurora with his dark blue eyes.

"I’ll give you two options, Prince Lester," Aurora said slowly. "First is to become my dog for four years and I’ll protect your life and give you education. In return, you’re not allowed to bite your owner even after that time and to do some things for me that’s not convenient for me to do myself.

Second is to return to Prince Brian and Prince Charles. While I’m sure that Prince Brian will not kill you, it couldn’t be said the same with Prince Charles."

Aurora’s words were blunt.

She didn’t really need a menial worker. What she needed was someone who would listen to her every words and do things that were not easy for her to do.

After all, Aurora is still the duke’s daughter and with the engagement on the bright side, there were restrictions in what she could do.

So Aurora said bluntly that she wanted a ’dog.’

It was just that this dog didn’t have any collar or anything like that.

This was the term for someone she wanted to use.

The second matter was also true. Aurora knew that Prince Brian was not a simple person and would definitely not make a mistake of killing Prince Lester. On the surface, Prince Lester had no position and could be killed at any time.

But whoever killed Prince Lester might have to face a lot of troubles.

Prince Brian would not do it himself and would instead hand this task over to his younger brother. Of course, whether Prince Charles will do it or not was another question.

But even if he did, Prince Brian would not care.

The relationship between Prince Brian and Prince Charles seemed good, but they were actually competitors.

Prince Lester looked at Aurora and didn’t directly answer.

He watched her silently and Aurora also looked back at Prince Lester, there was still the same faint polite smile on her face as if she hadn’t given the offer that might change Prince Lester’s life for the rest of his life.

And neither of the proposition sounded good.

But for someone like him who basically had nothing, it might be a chance to break away from his current position.

The question would be what kind of future awaited him if he were to agree. Because there were many questions and following Aurora would be the same as taking a bet.

"Four years?" Prince Lester asked slowly. His voice was somewhat hoarse as he rarely spoke.

"Yes." Aurora nodded. "Four and a half year to be exact."

Seeing the same expression on Aurora’s face, Prince Lester was silent for a while. It seemed that he was contemplating this offer from Aurora.

And from the way it looked like, Prince Lester was simply an option for Aurora.

There was no need to pick him specifically.

And...

Prince Lester slowly knelt down on one knee and said, "I’ll follow your words, Miss."
