Awakening Love: Reborn to Be His Duchess
Chapter 776 Intercepted Information
His Adam’s apple bebbed as he mumbled, “…I have.”
Finishe
Maeve’s lips curled up beneath her veil. “For you to remember her so clearly, Commander… have you taken a liking to her?”
Darius flinched violently, snapping his gaze away from Elowen. “No…”
Maeve nodded, her smile fading into something much cooler. “Good.”
Turning away from him, she adopted a strictly professional tone. “We’re leaving. We shouldn’t keep Her Highness waiting.”
Without giving Darius another second to argue, she led Elowen straight out the palace gates.
Walking behind her, Elowen’s eyes sparkled with utter admiration.
To shut down a crisis that cleanly and smoothly–she really was an absolute gem.
I really want to steal her away…
Once through the gates, they reached Valessa’s carriage.
Seeing them, Valessa had already boarded. Maeve stepped aside, allowing Elowen to use the footstool to climb in and take the seat opposite the Princess Royal.
Maeve lowered the carriage blinds.
The carriage slowly rumbled away.
Darius stood frozen in place, his eyes glued to that graceful silhouette.
Even though she wore a veil today, her figure, her posture, and especially those eyes were identical to the ones burned into his memory.
Ever since they parted ways at the inn, she had haunted his dreams almost every single night.
He was always chasing her. She was like a ray of pure moonlight slipping through the clouds, or a strip of silk plummeting from a high tower.
He would reach out desperately to catch her, only to grasp empty air.
Every time he woke up, his nightclothes would be drenched in sweat.
‘Commander.”
A subordinate sidled up to him, following his gaze toward the departing carriage. “Commander, didn’t that look like Miss Dray from the other night?”
Darius shot him a sideways glance.

The subordinate sighed in awe. “She’s seriously gorgeous. Even with a veil on, you can just tell she’s a knockout. When I saw her at the inn, I totally thought the Prince would fall head over heels for her. Look like it’s not just the Princ even the Princess Royal took a liking to her.”
A sudden realization hit Darius like a bolt of lightning. His pupils shrank as his expression turned ice–col
“Wait…”
The subordinate was confused. “Wait, what?”
Ignoring the question, Darius barked urgently, “I need to see the Master. Keep watching the gates!”
Without waiting for further questions, he sprinted off.
The guards exchanged bewildered looks, clueless as to what had just happened.
But Darius knew.
His Master had ordered him to keep a strict eye out for any exceptionally beautiful women.
At the time, he had been too blinded by her looks to think straight.
Now that he really thought about it–the Prince falling for her and taking her as a consort was perfectly normal.
But today, this Miss Dray had been personally escorted away by the Princess Royal.
For a mere consort to command such heavy attention from both the Prince and the Princess Royal… her true identity had to be extraordinary.
He had to report this to his Master immediately.
Inside the carriage.
Leaning against the wall, Elowen lifted a corner of the blind to peek outside.
She saw Darius sprinting away in a frantic rush.
