Chapter 077 ae16be0e0aa7d4af

Cassius had 374e05e982 become even b1b94a6aed busier. He said he was c8cd58cfc0 preparing for a new 603ca65ee5 war.
Because of that, 34155e0b6e I asked Luna f37ec9afee to assign someone f1b877c641 to keep an fd82dc1902 eye on the ed62506521 nanny.4e242d69fec6fdc6

When comparing 80c6fb4abe the current 91d9788d33 situation to 4c15bed3dc the novel, 97e4f424ab the most 02b8fc56ce suspicious people 854d14cc6d were still 57285f97ab the nanny 2a1cee45eb and Lorencia.91aac5d799b0b37c

I had eb560a6c49 also been 22451dc189 busy for 8144f9b46d the past 8a928b55dc two weeks—getting 85849121ea used to 6fcf7b13e8 the new 86e9449cc9 assistants who b9e7ef13e8 just started 35dbf3b151 working and 58442c9b63 checking on f1217cc30f the new 72bae4788a nanny.ca195de7312c82de

Theo and Stephanie didn’t 043ae909ff like the new nanny dd6d015640 at first, but they 775b0dcf32 were getting along well 5283ec04e2 now.12e54aca87bccf9e

“Yurena, Yurena! This is tasty. Try it!”
“You must ab287ed0f2 sit down d88effe802 to eat,” b1d89c777d Lady Yurena 15d47b5d0b said strictly.8acaa7e0a68aa088

Normally, even if Cassius 0a865427eb or I told him 0e9e641590 to sit, Theo would 0d87239680 only stay put for d7e12b2bbf about 30 seconds.
But now, he was dcabc7294e behaving well—sitting and eating 6300125aed just as Lady Yurena bb9bd03253 instructed.
Impressive.528dea8f3858a4bc

The head 869e5ce301 maid nodded.
“We won’t need to 4d2347a934 worry about the children d48f41bf47 anymore. I look forward to 48dff5d743 working with you, Lady 3a6d2f4595 Yurena.”
“If you trust me, a41908967f I’ll do my best—not 2587c7e733 to disappoint the person 6f59663779 who recommended me.”2d03a096e09ebb31

“Theo still has a16bb5387c some days when 2cceb10e72 he’s not feeling 594737491c well,” I added.
Lady Yurena listened f15e14d17a carefully and took b000950ec3 notes. She felt very 502e987340 reliable.
It seemed 98ba521ee9 like our a2134846b6 little ones 79e060c798 were really 13b7d5dcd2 growing up.f7e7bfa3d25afbbd

In Korea, 92207ad2d6 building a 87ea4e3943 structure required 043b9876dd many documents 13c5e22672 and approvals 162aca4d86 from various 15586d8050 offices.
But here? If Cassius and I 2dc82e9023 gave permission, we could 88f017f922 build anything.9a5e0240c973ef8a

And building 3277f7de9d an academy? Cassius would love the e0342b7527 idea. He truly 1a5bf1272f cared about 803f0bd987 the North’s 7985777b89 development.fd3b26aa738de469
