Jocelyn and the others' faces had become stiff from forced laughter. They had never been humiliated like this before. Being made to laugh for two whole hours by Mabel was an immense insult and a great source of shame for them.They immediately went to report the incident to Catherine, who was known for being kind and gentle. She usually taught etiquette, bookkeeping, managing people, and overseeing the household. She hadn't yet begun teaching anything more advanced, as she was considering the girls' backgrounds. Whether they married high or low, they would need to know how to manage a household.Most of the girls had already learned the basics of etiquette, so Catherine only needed to guide them slightly to ensure they would behave properly when hosting guests or interacting with others. As for managing accounts, it was a woman's essential skill and knowledge. After all, in this world, women still handled the household. Once they mastered these basics, they could learn more.For wom

Guilt flickered in Yuvan's heart, but so did a hint of impatience."Why do you speak like this, Mom? I can't stay by your side in the capital, so of course, I hope the queen dowager will be kind and look after you. That way, I won't spend my days worrying about you.""Enough. Don't say any more. Just go. Be safe on your journey," Ruth said, waving him off.She had raised this son herself—how could she not know his temperament? How could she not see through his expression?"Mom, forgive me for not being dutiful. It's the peak of summer and the heat is unbearable, so I can't take you with me to my fief. Besides, what would His Majesty think if I brought you along? Even if I've done nothing wrong, with how suspicious he can be, he'd probably find some reason to accuse me."Ruth simply nodded. "I understand. Go now."Yuvan nodded before calling in Molly, Fiona, and his children to say their farewells. Ruth showed little affection toward her daughters-in-law and grandchildren, her exp

Before leaving the capital, Molly made another trip to Hell Monarch Estate to see Violet and ask her for the letter she wanted to write to her father.Having been warned by Carissa, Violet didn't entertain Molly's request. She didn't give her the letter and quickly dismissed her instead.Molly tried again, but only embarrassed herself. But this time, she didn't seem angry. Instead, her eyes brimmed with tears. "Violet, I know you look down on me, but I truly see you as my little sister. While we were in the capital, we bought so many things that we can't take back with us. If Skye Embroidery can use them, I'll send everything there."Violet crossed her arms, her tone skeptical as she asked, "Are you really this generous?"Molly bristled at the accusation. "I'm a woman too. Naturally, I want to help other women. Besides, it's all things we don't need anymore—grain, clothes, fabrics, embroidery supplies, and even flowers. It's impractical to bring them back to Valken. If you don't

Carissa knew that Yuvan and his family were leaving the city today, so she gave orders to the Garrison Unit to keep an eye on them. After they left the city, they were to report back.Max personally led a team to keep watch. As they saw several of Yuvan's carriages leaving Edgeview Estate in a grand procession, they didn't stop them. Because of Yuvan's status, he didn't need to be checked when leaving the city. However, Yuvan still lifted the curtain of his carriage and nodded politely. The officer at the city gate raised his hands in a salute as he saw Yuvan off.There was no order to check, so no one dared to. With Yuvan's emblem, they didn't even need to show their face to be allowed to pass.Once they were gone, Max and his team returned to the Capital Guard headquarters to report to Carissa.When Carissa heard that they had left, she finally felt at ease.Recently, the Garrison Unit had been conducting fitness tests. Even after clearing out some people, the Garrison Unit coul

Carissa quickly sorted through the information in her mind. Her thoughts were in chaos, but she forced herself to stay calm and asked, "Is it just Claire chasing after her?""Iris is with her. But if Prince Yuvan really took Ms. Spencer, he would have many skilled people with him. They wouldn't be able to match him. That's why I came back to get help, but we still don't know for sure if Ms. Spencer was taken," Mabel replied.Carissa knew there was no time to waste. Lightning should be able to catch up. If Violet was still in the capital, she would probably be safe—the danger would be if Yuvan had taken her.She turned to Lillian. "Go back and tell Deputy Commander Brown to search the city. Then, go to Hell Monarch Estate and find Mr. Mullen. Have him gather people and follow me. I'll leave markers along the way."With that, Carissa snapped her whip and galloped off.Claire had always been with Violet, but now Violet had disappeared right before her eyes. This was no ordinary situa
