The Evil Queen’s Beautiful Principles

Anita is a complicated appointment, ostensibly subordinate to Gilbert, but secretly subordinate to Tommy.

I really wanted her to focus on solving the kidnapping case as Tommy's subordinate, but ...... Tommy's job involves a lot of travel, both domestic and international.

...... If I went along with all that, she would not be able to keep an eye on me at my side.

So, during the day, she stayed by my side as Gilbert's subordinate and liaison, and at night, she was Tommy's subordinate, organizing the information gathered.

It was not my intention to impose too much work on him.

...... I'll leave you to it then.

After Gilbert left, I continued my work.

"......, Miss Luxeria.

How much time has passed since Gilbert left?

Anita, who was sorting through papers in a corner of the ...... room, asked me.

What's up?

......What time are you working?

I'm done with work for the day. I'm done with work for the day. ...... I just want to do something, so I'll stay here a little longer.

Something you want to do?

Hmm. I'm writing instructions for the ...... team.

What are ...... instructions?

It's a document that tells you how to do your job when I'm not here.

I opened my mouth, but moved my hand with the quill.

It's a document where you write down how you want things to go in my absence. Does it have to be today?　I thought it was time to take a break.

If you want to sleep, go ahead and sleep. If you want to sleep, you can go ahead and sleep.

If you want to sleep, you can go to sleep first. ...... That's no way to keep an eye on things.

But you did it yesterday, didn't you?

Ugh. ...... That's true, but...

Do what you want. I'm not forcing you to keep watch.

...... Are you always like this, Luxeria?

What do you mean, "like this"?

Work, work, work until late every night. ...... How hard do you work?

...... I don't have time for this.

What do you mean you don't have time for ......?

In response to her question, I regret saying something I shouldn't have.

You have your usual work to do, plus the kids, right? So I don't have much time.

'Oh ...... that's right.'

I apologized if it sounded like I was accusing her, but I was more than relieved that I was able to cover it up.

The sound of her sighing echoed in the quiet room.

I'm sorry, ......, but I've reached my limit. I'm going to sleep first.

"Oh, ......, that's good. See you tomorrow.

"Yes. See you tomorrow.

After she left, I took the pills Godfrey had given me.

After she left, I took the pills Godfrey had given me. "...... Well, let's try a little harder.

Then I turned to my papers.
