Chapter 772 Change Of n
Sylvia''s POV:
Today, I woke up with Rufus as usual and had breakfast, after which I kissed him goodbye and sent
him on his way.
I waited for half an hour after he left, and then immediately ran to my room and gathered a few
belongings. I went downstairs calmly, as if it was just another ordinary day. "Maya, I have to go to
the army."
Holding a vase in one hand and a duster in the other, Maya paused and eyed me strangely. "Miss
Todd, why do you suddenly want to go to the army? Didn''t Prince Rufus suspend your daily training
and missions in the armyst week?"
Thanks to my pregnancy, Rufus was taking extra precautions. A few days ago, he stopped all my
army-rted activities for my safety.
"Some details of the previous border missions need to be investigated by the army," I exined
quietly.
Maya looked a little worried. "They won''t make you do any physical activities, will they?"
I didn''t know if I shouldugh or cry. "No, it''s just a simple talk with no training involved. I promise I
won''t do anything dangerous."
"That''s good." Maya didn''t feel at ease until she personally walked me to the gate of the army
quarters and reminded me that she would be here to pick me upter when I was done here.
I agreed with a smile and watched her leave.
When she was almost out of sight, my smile faded and a sense nervousness rose within me, as if
warning me that I was going to face a tough battle. I hade to the army quarters to get away
from Maya. Under Rufus'' instructions, she had been keeping a strict watch on me over these past
few days. She was not allowed into the army quarters, so she could not stick by my side.
Lots of my acquaintances were milling around. I put my hat on and was careful to avoid everyone''s
notice as I headed to ir''s office.

ir''s and Rufus'' offices were located in the same building, but Rufus'' office was on the top floor,
while ir''s office was on the second floor.
I hid under a big tree that was far away from the building. Rufus'' men were chatting with someone
at the entrance of the building.
Fifteen minutes passed by, but they remained in the same ce. I began to get anxious, afraid that I
wouldn''t be able to meet ir at the appointed time.
Even worse, Rufus exited the building at this moment.
I was so terrified that I hurriedly dropped into a crouch. Damn it! Didn''t Rufus have to preside over a
meeting for Ethan? What was he doing in the army quarters?
He chatted with his men at the entrance while ncing at his watch in haste. Then a car came and
he got ready to leave.
I poked my head out to get a better look, but unexpectedly, Rufus seemed to notice the movement
and his eyes turned in my direction. I quickly covered my face with my hands and crouched down,
praying desperately to the Moon Goddess that he had not noticed anything.
Ten more seconds passed before I worked up the courage to look again. Both Rufus and the car
were gone.
My body sagged with relief and I wiped the cold sweat that had beaded on my forehead.
Fortunately, I was quite far from the building, so my scent couldn''t reach Rufus. Besides, there were
a lot of camphor trees nearby which could help mask my scent well.
After ensuring that everyone around had left, I rushed into the building and went to ir''s office.
ording to the original n, I would change into a normal soldier''s uniform. Disguising myself as
a man, I would get into a military car and leave the imperial pce with ir, using the excuse of
going on a mission. In this way, I would secretly escape.
ir''s office was unlocked. I sat down and waited for a while. Half an hourter, there was still no
sign of him.
He had told me that he woulde here after the training, but a lot of time had passed and he
hadn''t showed up.
My body thrummed with anxiety, but I didn''t dare call him, afraid that our n would be exposed.
So, I waited for a little while longer. Twenty minutester, he barged into his office and informed me
with a serious expression that there was a change of n.
