Henry turned to look at Edith, the woman still had her arms folded. "Would you like to take it up with the crown prince?" he asked.
Mistress Edith would be lying if she said she didn't know what Rose was here for. Every single person in the castle knew. However, this was the last thing she expected to hear. She found it a little hard to believe the crown prince would do this much for a mere commoner, but she had never seen Henry this agitated.
"Do we have an understanding?" Henry asked when she didn't respond.
"Yes," Mistress Edith said. "I'll take her off the south wing and won't assign her to any more tasks." She didn't care enough to go against Henry or the crown prince, and Rose didn't bother her. Other than the fact that Rose stayed in the servants' quarters, she didn't have much to do with her.
"Good. And if this changes, you'll have to deal with the crown prince!"
"I understand, Mister Henry," Edith said, rolling her eyes as she spoke.
