After bidding farewell to the guests, Queen Isa turned to see Duke Modewen standing stiffly in the shadows.

"Your Majesty, I did everything as you requested..."

Queen Isa greeted him with a smile: "Very well."

"But... Charlie..."

"William, you are my son. Thus Charlie is naturally my grandson. But this grandson is too mischievous. Of course, I need to help you discipline him. So, in the coming days, Charlie will stay with me. You don't need to worry."
