Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 656

Carissa was a bit surprised. "Jacob has spies inside Valor Estate?"

"Yep. He has quite a few in all the estates within the capital, though some aren't as deeply embedded."

"Then why don't you tell him directly? Why tell me?"

Travis replied, "Ever since Kyle arrived, Jacob's been holed up in the study. I figured he was doing something on Prince Rafael's orders. Wouldn't it be better if you went back and told Prince Rafael?"

Carissa was even more puzzled. "But why are the spies reporting to you? Are you in charge of this? Does Jacob trust you that much?"

Travis grinned with pride. "Of course! Did you really think I was just a drill instructor? Jacob said I might look rough around the edges, but I'm meticulous when it comes to details. That's why he put me in charge of the spy network."

After speaking, he did a few midair flips and flipped his way right out of the room.

Carissa was left speechless. She had always thought Travis was like a wild monkey—sure, he could train troops, but how could Jacob have entrusted him with the careful, delicate task of handling the spy network?

If anything went wrong, the whole plan would fall apart!

She returned to the room to find Rafael, and mentioned what Travis had reported. Then, she asked, "Did you and Jacob plant a lot of spies in the big noble families?"

Rafael leaned back on the chaise lounge and pulled her onto his lap, settling her by his side. "That's right. We placed them wherever we could, but the roles they play vary. Some slipped in as servants, some managed to get close to the heads of the family, and others joined as guards."

"Things moved that fast?" Carissa was amazed as she glanced sideways at his handsome face. "So all this time, while things seemed quiet, you were busy setting up this network?"
