The goal was to make everyone think that Lucinia was going with the Duke on the East. They wanted everyone to think that they were away. And once they were already on the East of the Kingdom the Duke would stealthily rescue the Male Lead and let him go somewhere in the area near the witches' territory.
The crisp air hit Lucinia the moment she walked out of the palace and walked toward the carriage that was waiting for her.
"Princess, the Duke is already inside the carriage." To her surprise, the woman who will accompany them aside from the coachman was actually Victoria. While she was curious while Mo Li chose this woman to serve them, Lucinia didn't ask any questions. Though she can see something in Victoria's eyes, Lucinia chose to focus on saving the male lead first.
