The New Duchess
Chapter 98: Uncovered

The guards have already

preparing to pull the trigger, just waiting for one word from their superiors

with the man in uniform still locking their gazes waiting for each other.

“ me, Duchees Wellington”ucap

Ai finally. The man in the uniform was wrinkled. He never thought about the woman in front of him

have a status this high.

Soon the men

in uniform, he told both guards to lower their weapons through movement

her hands. He would be a little cautious if the status he heard was

the true identity of this woman.

“ Ai” Hardwin bit

disappointed with Ai's decision that seemed rash. He breathed a rough breath

because disappointment. It was clearly captured by the freshman man, that,

he started to believe that the woman was telling the truth.

“ what if you

lying?” men in uniform reveal a little of their diversity.

“ for what I am

lying” Ai remains in arrogant mode, she already intends it to be like this in order to

not easy to get hit.

“ what's your full name?”

back in question, Ai pulled the corner of her lips. Like this guy in uniform

I started to maintain attitude.

“ Ainsley, Lady Grafton”

those eyes widened hearing the answer from the woman before him clearly identity.

this has given the reason that this woman may be the Duchess.

The room was quiet

suddenly, both Hardwin and the bodyguard had already lowered their weapons. Ai and men

in uniform still looking at each other just that their gazes were not as sharp

preceding. The man assessed Ai's gesture from top to bottom.

Some rumors say

if Duchess Wellington is a big lady in Barack and has a big attitude

a little bit of a man. If combined with the woman in front of him

it feels so suitable. The man in uniform immediately misbehaved, he felt

a little too much with his guests.

“ what you can

allow my troops in?” don't want the silence to drag on eventually

Hardwin solved with question.

Male gaze

the uniform was finally cut off, now he looked at Hardwin. After a while

finally nodded and told his bodyguards to come out and give a message

to the gatekeeper. Ai and Hardwin sat back down, having been convinced that

their troops are safe.

“ I don't want people

others know my identity, so you should be able to keep this thing a” Ai already

starting to melt, this woman looks a little friendly.

“well, then there's a point

did the Duchess come here?” the man in the uniform believed and now

being respectful towards Ai, however, this woman was clearly on top of him.

“ I want to hear

duke's news, can you tell me what's going on at the border

all this time, sir?” said Ai clearly. Instantly the look on the man's face changed, Ai

I don't understand the meaning of that expression.

“ Edward, my deputy

chairman Edward” the concubine finally said his position in the squad

town. The man seemed to be silent for a moment while glancing at Hardwin. The question Ai

give it a clear very crucial. He wanted to answer but in the room there was

someone else. However, he could not carelessly explain this to

a stranger.

Look at Edward,

Ai understood the meaning of that glance.

“ you can dieyou

a moment Hardwin?” Ai looked at Hardwin flatly, while the man frowned

place, Ai gave a small nod as if to say that everything will be fine

just.

Now all the gazes

fixed on Hardwin, this man had no choice but to leave from

chamber. Both Edward and Ai had the same wish.

“ alright” replied Hardwin

forced. With a heavy heart, the man walked closer to the door

then out.

“ so how?” Ai

back to his answer.

“ as information which

the border has fallen. The Duke's army had already lost after the battle

a few days” Ai already knew this, she wanted another answer.

“ explain to me

how could Duke not exist when the shootout occurred?” Edward is getting made

amazed by the courage and insight Ai. how could he already know

this secret thing. This is strong evidence that it is true that women in

in front of her is Duchess Wellington.

“ em, I can't

give the answer to your question“ Edward has promised that he should

keep this secret. Ai frowned, she cultivated what the intent of

edward's Speech.

“ then who can

give me the answer to my question?” I need to be able to meet someone

who can give him an answer, maybe the city troop leader, or someone

others who have a higher status. Because Edward's answer is not it

he didn't know, he just wasn't allowed to say the answer.

“ I will level

you met him, but only you. The man still can't

knowing anything” replied Edward sure. This man was a little suspicious even judging

Hardwin had other intentions coming here.

“ why?” although Ai

it can hide this but it will be difficult if he has no friends

discussions.

“ she has king” letter

answer Edwad briefly. Ai understood even though she did not know what the meaning was

actually was. Finally he could only nod in response.

“ she's better

leaving town” said Edward later. Ai started to waver, how did she

convinced Hardwin to leave him. It doesn't feel possible.

“ I will

work it” replied Ai. he still prefers Axton, want whatever the risk.

The conversation was finally

finished, Hardwin looked at Ai as the woman walked out of the room. Himself would

ask for answers later when Edward is not around.

“ you can come with me

to take care of your troops” Edward spoke to Hardwin. Although a little worried,

Hardwin better manage his army first.

“ alright” replied Hardwin.

“ will soon be there

the waiter who accompanied you”, Edward told Ai. after identifying the identity

of course, Ai will be treated differently.

Without waiting

edward and Hardwin's consent left Ai. The woman sitting on the porch

soon a woman approached Ai.

“ I Susan, will serve

you here. Let me take to room” said the woman, from her appearance

like Susan is a village woman who is given the task of being able to sow

Ai.

“ alright” reply Ai friendly

then followed Susan to her room.
