However, after Rebecca's tea party, some people began to notice hints that suggested otherwise.The storyteller, known for his knack for suspense, first piqued the interest of his audience before revealing, "At the tea party hosted by Madam Warren at Valor Estate, neither the wives of the Ministry of Defense's two deputy ministers nor any other family members of Ministry of Defense officials were in attendance.

"She's your niece! If your sister in heaven knew what you did, would she not be upset with you for being so heartless? It's one thing for strangers to show Carissa disdain, but you're her aunt! You're truly…"Harvey was a leisurely prince with no real power or responsibilitie

The events in the capital were unknown to Carissa, who was far away at the Southern Frontier.The war was long over, but the troops could not fully withdraw yet. The first reason was the severe cold, which made marching difficult. The second reason was that many areas of the Southern Frontier were in ruins after years of conflict, and the soldiers were helping with the reconstruction.Since the end of the war, rumors about Aurora's capture and disgrace had spread throughout the army. No matter how much she denied it, there were many soldiers who had rushed into the wooden hut and seen her state that day.It was not a secret that could be hidden.Aurora had sought out Zeke and the others to testify on her behalf, but what could they say?

Carissa entered briskly. After greeting Rafael, she felt a strange unease.What was wrong with Dylan? Why was he looking at her with such an odd look on his face?When Rafael gave Dylan a cold look, the latter chuckled and said, "I'll take my leave, then."Once outside, Dylan didn't stray far. He hid just beyond the entrance to eavesdrop."Have a seat," Rafael told Carissa.Rafael cast an irritated look at the entrance. It was obvious someone was eavesdropping. Even if Dylan wanted to do so, couldn't he have hidden better?Aware of Dylan's presence, Carissa sat down and gave Rafael a questioning look, then pointed at the door, wondering why Dylan was still there.Rafael shook his head with a smile. "Ignore him. What brings you here?"Carissa straightened and asked earnestly, "Marshal, I know we're preparing to return to the capital.
