Planning the Escape (Part-1)

Upon hearing the confident tone Miss Linda used to claim she had a way out, her elder sister Lady Adele, who was watching the entire thing from afar with a pallid, disinterested face produced an intriguing glow, as she finally shifted her eyes onto the meeting.

While Achillas found his lips suddenly twitching.

The general did not quite know how to feel about it. 

The part of him that wanted to win against Alexander of course felt happy.

But an even larger part of him skipped a heartbeat.

And he hoped that Miss Linda was just being boisterous here, trying to put on a strong facade to placate him.

Thus revealing a buttery smile, the general's eyes lit up as he first greatly cheered, 

"Heh heh, as expected of my lady, no one is better suited to be the next duchess. You truly are a lucky star made in the heavens just for my lord. There can be no doubt that. I am sure he will be greatly pleased to hear of your assurance."
