Chapter 345: Leaving the Capital

The day Charlton was to leave the capital, the sun was shining high above the skies. People were milling about in the streets, doing what they normally do. Nothing changed and life kept on moving. 

With a heavy heart he asked Jack, his coachman turned driver, to drive his car to the ministry of defense where he would meet with Earl Hugo Cobalt who was also tasked to leave the capital and lead the campaign in extinguishing the rebels as punishment for his failures. 

If something made his mother's heart feel any better, it was this. That he was not alone in the punishment and Cobalt, being the son of another duke loyal to the crown, would be with him in this mission.
