The Cold Duke and the Modern Maiden
When Duke Kensington’s carriage stopped in front of the Knights’ Manor, he jumped down instantly and ran towards the main door, ignoring the curious glances of the servants as well as the presence of both Sir Andrew and Mrs Shaw, who were startled to see his sudden appearance in the house.
Upon realizing that the Duke was actually heading towards their Mistress’ room, Mrs Shaw tried to stop him but the Duke’s agility was of no match for the old matron.
“Andrew, what are you doing?! Quickly stop His Grace!” Mrs Shaw shouted at Sir Andrew, who at this point was still rooting at the main door, looking at the frantic Duke.
