I mean, wrapping things up sounds great and all, but we're only in chapter 4.
And how come they have been asking around and looking for her everywhere but the place they had been trying to sell her to? Even if they wouldn't believe her, being the daughter of a duke, to still be in such a place, the brothel should still have been the first place to go, just to ask for clues. And that's not accounting for the suspicious sudden rise in popularity and customer quality said brothel got after they were there.

So, she likely means “let’s wrap this up” in the sense of “alright thats enough being missing for now, time to go back to the capital.” Remember that she was kidnapped, and also carried a pendant that basically signaled to her family that she wasn’t dead, so she’s probably going to be heading there next.

She also just doesn’t want to immediately go back to her old life where everything is decided for her, since she says that she’s found something she wants to do.

Regarding the sudden rise in popularity, it’s explicitly stated by Camilla that Sherry’s various techniques and inventions aided in the girls not only having a better quality of life but also retaining a better work environment.

I understand that. What I meant by "suspicious" is that this should have been a bright red signal for the guys looking for Sherry. It's the talk of the town and has even reached the lord's ears.

1) I don't think anyone here is going to criticize you for leaving honorifics 'as is' in a manga translation, so it's safe to not localize them ever, especially if it's a Japanese highschool/office setting with highly meaningful expressions that readers would appreciate seeing in original form, like 'paisen', 'nee-san', or 'onii-chama'.
If you ask me though, for stories with a strong fantasy/historical European flavor, I think it's fitting and immersive to go with Western formalities like Sir, Sire, my Lord, your Majesty, etc - if you can make it sound natural.
2) Short T/Ns are fine on the same page, and you should actually avoid wordiness there. Complicated issues and trivia go at the end.
