Chapter 241 Taking Back the Wedding Dress

Finished

Ashley explained, “His wealth is astonishing. Counting everything here alone would take days. Besides this place, he has another location just for storing gold bricks. He’s been saving all this gold to fund his rebellion.”

Kolton glanced at her calmly. “You even know this much. It seems he truly trusts you.”

Ashley replied firmly, “No matter how much he trusts me, he is still a traitor. I will give my life to stop anyone who dares to threaten the empire.”

Kolton said nothing. He simply ordered his men to enter, categorize, and mark everything. Once the household was dealt with tomorrow, they would come back for a full inventory.

Just sorting and marking everything was already a massive task. Ashley slowly stepped back, not interfering as Kolton and his men busied themselves.

Her gaze landed on a smear of red on the cabinet.

She walked over slowly, reaching out to touch the finely embroidered wedding dress.

She knew where it came from. She recalled the man riding in on horseback, swiftly changing the course of battle.

She had known about Oliver for a long time, but like everyone else, she believed he owed his position as Great Marshal to his family’s influence and the Marquis of Eldermere’s support.

When Oliver arrived in Zloimond on a covert investigation, she hadn’t taken him seriously. Someone so useless could never uncover the location of the weapons cache.

Still, to be cautious, she arranged a meeting with one of his attendants and bribed him to report Oliver’s

movements.

It was a good thing she did. When he finally found the weapons cache, she was able to prepare.

But before she could relocate it, Oliver took drastic action, choosing to perish alongside the cache in a fiery end.

At that moment, she realized he was not the man as the rumors said.

She found herself admiring him.
