"The duke had finally summoned for your presence. It would seem that you found your golden ticket to the palace again." Her secretary announced to her as soon as she entered her office.
She walked straight to her table, moving around it until she stood by her side. She dropped several files on top of the desk. Then, she placed a note in front of her.
"What do you mean?" She asked, looking at her assistant as if she had grown some horns, confused by her statement.
As far as her morning went, it had been unproductive. She could not get any information nor find someone willing to share a bit of news. So, why would the duke suddenly accept her invitation for an interview?
She grabbed the note and read its content. She raised her brow to her assistant, asking silently if this was a joke. But her assistant only shrugged her shoulders.
