Her Graceful War Song Chapter 319
Thinking about all of this, Helen felt a mix of emotions.When Rafael was on the battlefield before this, he would refuse any mention of marriage. The resoluteness he expressed in his letters had led her to believe that this son of hers was prepared to remain a bachelor for life. Yet, as soon as he returned victorious, he announced he wanted to marry Carissa.Granted, Carissa was a divorcee, but at least it meant he was willing to take a wife. Besides, after investigating, they found out that Barrett had never touched her. She was still a virgin, so it was acceptable, if only barely.Accompanied by Gillian, Helen entered the newlywed suite on the eastern side of the building. White wedding banners adorned every wall, and new furniture was draped in white silk, tied with intricate decorative knots. The intricate knots were a traditional wedding touch, and they were called Eternal Knots, which represent eternal love and harmonious union.Nearly every new item had a white ribbon on

Helen thought it over, and realized that it made sense. Even though Rafael was on the battlefield at the time, if he had truly wanted to stop the marriage, it shouldn't have been too difficult, right?But she failed to consider the vast distances involved. Even if Carissa had married and had children, Rafael might not have known about it. She also didn't realize the dangers he faced on the battlefield, where he was focused on winning the war. He had assumed Melanie would keep her promise, so he didn't worry about it and only wanted to secure victory and return to the capital as quickly as possible.Unaware of these details, Helen simply felt that having Carissa as her daughter-in-law was a blemish on her otherwise perfect life. Her emotions were conflicted. She was happy that her son was getting married, but unhappy that he was marrying Carissa.-Meanwhile, preparations were also underway at Valor Estate and Silverstone Estate for tomorrow's grand event.This would be Barrett's

Aurora seemed to know the answer in her heart, but she remained unsettled and unwilling to accept it. "When you loved me, was it just a momentary infatuation?" she asked. Barrett remained unable to answer. He didn't know.His feelings for Aurora were genuine at the time, but whether they were merely a passing fancy, he couldn't clearly say.Because after marrying Aurora and divorcing Carissa, he felt a pang of regret. He remembered telling Solomon that he hoped Carissa wouldn't regret her decision, but in truth, he knew that he himself had begun to regret it.Didn't he love Aurora then? He certainly did. But couldn't a man's heart hold space for two women?How many men take multiple wives and concubines? Carissa couldn't accept it, and perhaps he was angered by his own broken promises. In any case, with Melanie now dead, he no longer needed to answer to the Duke of Northwatch's family for his promises.Maybe he had thought he had Carissa under control. After all, she was an

Before long, Ryan returned in his new clothes.Over the past few months, he had grown taller. The outfit, which had been custom-made, fit him perfectly. The white silk satin was embroidered with rabbits, and the outfit featured a small cape made of leather with a black exterior and blue lining.
