116: The ambush - part 3

Alexander wanted to laugh a the serious and cold expression on the head maid's face. He could feel her discomfort even without her face betraying her emotions.

But he was also curious about her words from before. He wanted to know what the head maid had meant by 'newer model' when she had talked with that other maid.

Things were getting interesting around the Northern Republic and Alexander wanted to be someone who held the ropes of success.

Besides, he had a feeling that knowing this information would save their side a lot of grief.

"Since you have managed to sneak in this far into the Royal palace then you must be considered a criminal. But since I'm in a forgiving mood now, I'll let this go. You should get out of the royal palace as soon as you can."

Alexander smiled at the ease of provocation. He had thought that it would be difficult to rile up a lady who had climbed such a difficult social ladder but maybe that was not the case.
