Semua Bab Her Graceful War Song: Bab 641 - Bab 650

The contents of the carriage were unloaded and arranged outside the main hall of Hartstone Estate. Heather didn't even glance at the items, her expression dark and thunderous."If you don't want to look at it now, you can take your time and look at it later. If anything is missing, feel free to send someone to let me know. As for the items my mom gifted you, they should be returned as well. I remember there were quite a few medicines from Arcane Sanctum among them," said Carissa.Heather turned on her heel and walked away as she coldly remarked, "Those have long since been used up. How do you expect me to return them to you? Aren't you afraid that your mom's feelings would be hurt with this stunt?""My mom always cared for Leona. If she knew how you treated your daughter, I'm sure she would sever ties with you too," Carissa replied.Tears brimmed in Heather's eyes. "Carissa, how did you become like this? You refuse to acknowledge me as your aunt and push your cousin to get a divorc

At Hell Monarch Estate, Jacob reported the situation to Rafael in the study, then settled down to sip his coffee once he was done."So, Noah headed straight to Uncle Yuvan's residence after leaving Hartstone Estate?" Rafael raised an eyebrow. "Hah. It seems our suspicions were correct. They're all working together with Aunt Eleanor.""Prince Harvey has been hiding it too well. We never paid him much attention before," Jacob said."I was stuck at the Southern Frontier battlefield over the past few years, so I missed a lot that happened in the capital," Rafael said, analyzing the situation. "They haven't gained enough power yet. Otherwise, they would have made their move when my brother first took the throne. Back then, there was chaos at Victory Pass and a war at the Southern Frontier. When my father passed away and a new king took the throne, that would have been their best chance."Jacob considered it for a moment, then shook his head. "That may have been their best chance, but it

Carissa was surprised. Had she been doing that?She hadn't been resistant to getting close to Rafael. After all, they were intimate every night. They shared the bed, and curled up together. Throughout the night, her head had hardly left the comfort of his arms or chest.Seeing Carissa's confused look, Lulu felt an inexplicable frustration rise within her. She asked directly, "My lady, do you want a respectful relationship with His Highness, like a pair of polite spouses, or do you want to be a real loving couple?""Lulu, aren't you overreacting?" Carissa reached up to touch Lulu's forehead. "Have you been possessed by something? Are you running a fever?"Lulu puffed up her cheeks, and glared. "My lady, answer the question!"Carissa tilted her head slightly, a few strands of hair falling out of place and dancing in the sunset glow. "Don’t you need both respect and love in a marriage? Just because a couple is loving doesn’t mean they can’t be respectful. Is it one or the other? Ca

Samuel's eyes were hollow as he was pushed to take a few steps forward. Suddenly, he turned back to face Noah."Dad, if you see Ruby, ask her if she ever cared for me at all, even if just a little?"At Samuel's words, Noah felt his vision darken. It was as if something was lodged in his throat and nearly choking him. He swayed for a moment before collapsing to the ground.Abigail burst into loud, heart-wrenching sobs, which drew a crowd of onlookers from the streets.The turmoil between the Earl of Gracehold's family and Harvey's family was already well-known, and the people of the capital were now buzzing with gossip. With Noah sitting on the ground and Abigail in tears, the spectator could only watch with detached curiosity. The sorrows of the nobility were mere entertainment to the common folk. They felt no empathy, only a desire for more gossip.Upon returning home, Noah and Abigail learned that Dorothy had fainted and suffered a stroke. Despite quickly ordering everyone to

After Harvey finished speaking, Yuvan fell into deep thought for a moment. "But it's ultimately better for her to die. That way, all the blame will fall on the Sullivan family. Aurora is cunning and fears death. With her being so despised, I fear the common folk would find her words hard to believe. Also, the Sullivan family has guarded Victory Pass for so many years without ever harming a single civilian. If someone were to spin that narrative to clear their name, it could very well absolve them of any wrongdoing," Yuvan said. Harvey replied, "But our goal isn't to wipe out the Sullivan family. We only need them out of Victory Pass so we can place our people to guard it. Oliver hasn't aligned with us yet, so we must take control of Victory Pass. As long as we control the elite troops in both areas, or if the conflict drags on, we can implement our original plan of inciting the civilians uprising across the region. This will highlight the king's failures and make him the target of
