Chapter 293: Cat and mouse

"What's occuring out there?"

Furrowing his brows, Amir Edward queried as soon as his carriage ceased in the middle of the path. "The Fifth Princess's coach is standing in the way, Sir. It is literally at the gate" In hurry, the guard notified after checking the situation out. "Fifth Princess's carriage?" Amir tilted his head at the news.

"Yes, Sir" The guard assured. It was the moment the man fell into deep silence. Why was the young woman still at the gate door of palace? He believed she would be on the way already. Turned out she had not stepped out of the gate yet even. "I shall question her" Under his breath, Amir stated. Stepping outside.

Then he walked near to the carriage which caught the twin sisters' attention fully. They two gulped. "Is there any problems stopping this coach by any chance?" Getting straight to the point, the man asked. Eyeing the two girls who lowered their heads. These twins were the personal head maids of Asteria.
