บท 252: The Unexpected Fall

As the two siblings skipped and giggled down the corridor, Helen trailed closely behind, her watchful eyes never leaving their playful figures. Determined to prevent a repeat of any mishap, she remained vigilant.

However, she still allowed them to have a good time on their own, knowing how the princess hated to be restricted. Soon, their path reached its end, revealing a flight of stairs leading to the lower floor.

"Hold my hand, Your Highnesses. The stairs are quite steep," urged Helen, aware of the potential danger. However, the princesses, accustomed to their growing independence, resisted the notion of being held by their governess. 

"Your Highness! Wait for me!" Helen exclaimed and hastily rushed to catch them; however, the mischievous princesses jumped down with a laugh, escaping the governess. 

"You can't catch me! You can't catch me!" Lilith playfully taunted Helen, her laughter filling the air.
