Nanny For Young Master's
Genius 49 - Sleeping

Clap up!

Karl closed Carver's door. The focus of the man's gaze was immediately on the boy lying on his bed as soon as he arrived.

He continued walking until he finally stopped at the edge of Carver's bed when he saw a woman sitting on the floor, leaning against the edge of the bed holding her son's hand.

Both eyes are closed. It was clear that the woman was asleep.

Didn't I order Grey not to come in here? But why is this new nanny here?

Karl looked at Nanny's deeply asleep face.

Chequek!

Karl's attention immediately turned to the voice he heard. The voice came from the direction of the entrance, and there he could see Grey walking towards him. It seems like there is something he is trying to say.

"My master has ordered all the maids not to come here this morning, but there is another matter, sir. The new babysitter young master is missing. It seems he escaped when night fell. Because someone saw him step sneaking out of the pavilion at night ti—"

"He's here" Karl cut off while turning his attention to Nanny.

"Eh? God, why is he here? Did he sleep all night here?! Let me wake you up, sir." Grey just stepped up to wake Nanny. But Karl held him down first.

"no need. You better get out. Let him in here."

"I'm sorry? But didn't you say…"

"You better check ahead, and see if my guest has arrived."

"A-ah. Fine, sir." Grey inevitably left Carver's room. The man closed the door of his room tightly, leaving Karl in there with the two men with their eyes closed.

Did you sleep all night here? But why didn't I see you last night? Did you come after I left?

Nanny's calm face really made Karl think of his figure. The figure of the woman who had been present in his life before finally disappeared left endless bitter memories that are still felt to this day.

For some reason, but every once in a while when I see you, I see it also in you, inwardly.

Karl crouched down near Nanny. Looking closer at the woman, and in this state of sleep, Nanny really made Karl think of himself.

"Huft~ what am I thinking? Can I compare him to this woman? They are obviously different people." Karl shook his head.

"You'd better move before the royal witch gets here."

Charles rose from his position. Somehow his body moved without him noticing, grabbing Nanny's body. Carrying her and taking her to the couch not far away.

Karl laid Nanny's body on the sofa to make her feel more comfortable.

Chequek!

The door again opened, and this time Charles saw Grey not coming alone. But with two men who were none other than the guests he had been waiting for since.

"Sir, they've come" Grey said.

Karl approached them both there.

"I left immediately as soon as I got the invitation letter from Master Duke," the man said.
