Achillas Sets Forth (Part-1)
After Achillas made the suggestion about how to send the spy, he and Lord Parker tried to hash out the details for the next hour or two.
Until the ducal lord barked out in frustration, "No! This is all too complicated. Sending a messenger into the mansion is too risky. He will get caught just like Linda's messenger did."
This of course sounded like music to Achillas's ears, as he thought he was one step closer to denying Lord Bernard his prize.
However, for the sake of playing his part, he put on a troubled face and after thinking a bit, proposed, "Perhaps we can try sending multiple men. This way hopefully one of them can reach her ladyship."
The 'wisdom' behind sending a group of men need not be said, as any one of them landing in the enemy's hand would cause the entire endeavor to fail.
Alexander would be quickly alerted and have the lady put under even stricter quarantine.
