Florence remained silent for a long time. She was fully aware that Eleanor could never measure up to Melanie Sullivan. In Eleanor's heart, her grievances outweighed everything else. If she had married Hector and he disobeyed her even once, she would undoubtedly have caused a scene and shaken the very foundations of the earth.Carissa continued, "And you said that concubines are lowly while the grand princess is noble. So, no matter what she does to them, it's all considered a blessing. If I were to give you such a 'blessing', would you kneel in gratitude and offer up your fingers and toes for me to chop off one by one?"Florence didn't look up. Her eyes were downcast, and she was unable to muster a single retort."Most of those so-called lowly concubines were favored young women in their families. Whether from wealthy households or common folk, their parents likely spoiled them just like you spoiled Grand Princess Eleanor."But they were abducted and quietly met terrible ends wit

Since the night of the Emberfest Festival, after Molly and Fiona returned home and shared what happened at Harmony Palace, Yuvan had been consumed by anxiety.He didn't need Wayne to advise him. He understood that it was crucial not to leave the capital for Valken at such a critical moment. Otherwise, it would be like declaring his guilt. Wayne advised him to focus on his duties in the palace, feigning ignorance about everything that had transpired. Those Yuvan had brought to the capital had to remain low and not do anything.On the surface, Yuvan maintained a calm demeanor; inside, he was a whirlpool of turmoil. He wanted to gather information but had no way to do so. He knew that those who had been closely involved with Eleanor were all on edge, and his status as a prince made things even more delicate.After considering his options, the only person he could potentially glean information from was Molly, whose cousin, Violet, resided at Hell Monarch Estate and was Carissa's close f

Carissa didn't seem angered by Stephanie's tone. Instead, she turned to the scribe, Kirk, and said flatly, "Note that Lady Stephanie appears impatient and unwilling to cooperate. This raises concerns of defiance against royal orders."Kirk opened his book, and Michael quickly prepared the ink."Understood, Commander Sinclair."Stephanie was taken aback, her cheeks flushing with indignation. "Carissa, don't say such nonsense! When have I ever defied orders?"Carissa remained unmoved in her seat and continued, "Also note that Lady Stephanie scolded me and has displayed an extremely poor attitude."Kirk's quill flew across the page. "Noted. It's been recorded."Stephanie walked over and saw that Kirk had indeed written down Carissa's words. In a fit of anger, she reached out to tear the page, but Michael swiftly blocked her with his sword. Then, he coldly said, "Note that Lady Stephanie attempted to destroy the testimony."Stephanie stumbled back two steps. She was caught off gua

After Fiona finished speaking, she suddenly covered her mouth for a moment, looking at Carissa in terror. "Did you just say that girl died three years after entering Harmony Palace? She had her fingers and toes chopped off? Heavens, how could that happen? What did she do wrong? I thought she came from a decent family and had good character, which is why I sent her to Grand Princess Eleanor. What could she have possibly done to deserve that?""She erred by being seen by you," Carissa said. "What?" Fiona's face registered shock and innocence. "I truly didn't expect this. I had good intentions. I thought the Marquis of Grovehill's family was a noble household. Even if the girl was just a concubine, it would be better than marrying a commoner."Carissa replied coldly, "Are you saying you didn't know she would end up staying at Harmony Palace instead of Grovehill Estate? That's quite the convenient excuse."Fiona hurriedly explained, "I really didn't know! After all, Lord Henry doesn

Now that Viola was pregnant, her thoughts were often clouded, and she was overly sensitive. When she heard about Barrett's promotion, she felt joy. But upon learning that Carissa was his superior, tears filled her eyes.She leaned against Barrett's arm, choking on her words. "I'm not jealous of her, but how can she possibly hold power over you? You discovered the evidence of Grand Princess Eleanor's treachery. If it weren't for you, the grand princess' ambitions might still be hidden from everyone."I just can't accept it! Why are you always overshadowed by her? When it comes to contributions and achievements, haven't you surpassed her? How could the king allow a woman to be the commander? To let a woman oversee the Mystic Army, along with the Crown Guard and the Royal Guard—it's absurd! The men have lost all their dignity!"Barrett listened to her choked voice and felt a twinge of irritation in his heart. He remembered the assassin who had faced him that night—he knew exactly who
