Carra knew that this man could kill himself if he continued knocking his head on the hard floor. She didn't want Lancelot's life, but just wanted to take the opportunity to establish her prestige in the house of Copperstone. She wanted to let the whole castle know that she was the eldest daughter of the family. She would not be easily bullied again.
Seeing that her goal had been achieved today, she stopped the proceedings and said to lord Livingstone. "Father, seeing his condition right now, what about keeping him in the holding room and interrogate him another day?"
Lord Livingstone was also concerned at seeing the amount of blood. Since Carra said so, he waved his hand and said, "take him and put him in the wood house. I will deal with him later. But make sure to take care of him."
After Lancelot was dragged away, Carra said to the people in the yard with different looks. "Everyone has seen it. From now on, I hope everyone will abide by their duties and do thi
Since the small, burnt, courtyard was in disarray, and Carra decided not to go back there, Angela gave her another courtyard, the Rose courtyard.Carra settled in Rose Courtyard with a peace of mind. Audrey had not come to find her trouble in the past few days, so she was happy. She was reading books, admiring flowers, and listening to the rain in her free time. She was having a happy life, and she had the right to regard this as a vacation. A stress-free vacation.A natural holiday destination.She lay leisurely on the recliner under the grape trellis, dozing off for a while. She was deep in thought in her heart. She await prince Algernon to cancel the arranged marriage, but why hadn't there been any movement on his part or any information from him?Carra was about to ask if someone should be sent to the palace to talk about the annulment, when Nella ran all the way to the grape trellis, breathlessly saying. "Miss, prince Algernon... Royal Palace, they are here. "Was it finally here
Who the hell was this Wulfgar? Carra was really depressed at the thought. Why did she just managed to get out of one arranged marriage, only to have another one so soon? Couldn't they let her be in peace, even for a moment?Meanwhile, Nella and Vira were very happy to learn that the king gave the marriage arrangement his approval. But when they heard that the groom of the marriage was prince Wulfgar, their facial expressions were like eggplants that were smashed by frost. They had bitter melon faces, as if they had eaten a great deal of bitter leaves."What's the matter? Is there a problem with this prince Wulfgar?" Carra asked puzzledly. She searched the memory of the original owner, but couldn't find anything significant. The two had never met before. There was no information about this prince Wulfgar.It was no wonder that the original owner had been living a life of ignorance of things outside her oak windows, and only wanted to live a stable life, and could not demand her underst
When Angela heard this, she became anxious. Sophia's inheritance she left behind was not a small sum of money. She had been jealous of this inheritance a long time ago but never made it known. Now, taking advantage of the opportunity of Audrey's imminent marriage, she was preparing to change a major part of Sophia's inheritance. If she handed it over at this time, wasn't so much of her plans in vain?She said aggrievedly: "My husband, don't you trust me to handle a little matter of money? Carra's inheritance should be prepared by me as her stepmother. How can I leave it to her for her to handle? This is not the proper arrangement of a Machan family."Carra didn't bother to watch the acting of her stepmother, but said softly. "I know you're the only mother I have left, that's why I don't want to compound your stress. I heard that the doctor often comes in to pay you a visit. It seems you're having physical discomfort, probably stress. You see why, mother?""Yeah." Lord Livingstone also
Under Carra's drastic reforms, the operation of the two stores where Carra's inheritance was, gradually improved.The two shops were located on Barma alley. The most prosperous road in the capital, and the geographical position was superior. If Angelina was not for the trouble, they would not be making losses every year.Before, when Carra got the account of the shop, she was really shocked. Fortunately for her, this soon changed. She was so excited when she learned that she had two stores in prime locations under her name, but she was also sad on the account of deficits, year after year.Whereas, the other shops under the name of the Cawthorne family on the nearby alley were flourishing.But now, one of the Cawthorne's shops had been seized, and the other one had gradually declined after the rise of Carra's shops. Angelina Cawthorne really fell ill this time. What's even more depressing was that she couldn't take what she wanted from Carra.It was impossible to see anyone who would
Nella heard what Aubrey said, along with the comments of the people around her, and her face flushed with anger. Not able to do any other things due to her position, she glared softly at Aubrey."Unfortunately, I am not you, so I won't do this." Carra just smiled indifferently and said loudly. "I am not at fault for being disfigured and rejected in marriage. Why should I be wronged for the mistakes made by others? What about yourself? Isn't it the people who made mistakes that should amend their ways?"She looked at Aubrey with piercing eyes. Facing the sharp eyes, Aubrey felt a little flustered, as if the secret she had carefully hidden had been discovered by her sister.She remembered Carra, who had been so committed in front of her before, but why did she look different now?She took a few steps forward in anger, raising her hand, and she tried to fan her face. This was her usual action to intimidate the former Carra. Every time Carra saw her raised her hand, she either lowered he
Carra left Barma alley and went to the second warehouse left to her by her mother.The second warehouse was located at the end of Olive Street. Since the warehouse was selling antiques and painting, the environment needed to be relatively quiet. Olive Street's warehouse's shopkeeper that Carra did not change was a shopkeeper named Wagner.Carra investigated. Although this shopkeeper Wagner didn't make any achievements, just like his name, he didn't make any mistakes, and he was highly professional.Carra couldn't find another suitable candidate for a while. After doing some kind of findings on the shopkeeper Wagner, she decided to keep him, but he was assigned an accountant so that they could supervise each other. Account verification, outbound and inbound were all registered in detail, and reported to her on a regular basis.By the time Carra finished checking the second warehouse's accounts, it was already dusk. Remembering that she agreed with Madame Mildred today to accompany her
Carra woke up to the feeling of a burning suffocation. It was as if she was drowning in a sea of smoke while her whole body was being tempered in a fiery furnace. The fiery feeling was completely overwhelming. After some minutes of great difficulties, she opened her eyes and realized the whole area was in flames and the air was filled with smoke.Was she in a sea of fire? What happened? She asked herself apprehensively, but her brain wasn't functioning properly. She needed answers but knew if she stayed where she was, she would definitely be burned or smoked to death. She struggled to get up from the ground, only to find that her clothes were not right, and her shirt and jeans had become complicated long garments. She was stunned, and immediately looked around. Although the fire in this place was big, and she couldn't seem to recall much, it appeared as if something was wrong. However, since the fire was getting bigger and bigger, she decided now wasn't the right time to worry abou
"Miss, our lady just woke up. She's still very weak, so she's resting now. It's not convenient for her to see you at this time, please come back tomorrow." Nella voiced out, trying to dissuade the visitor from entering the chamber. "How dare you?" A sharp voice yelled. The question was followed by the sound of a thunderous slap. "A maid, trying to stop me? You really forgot your position." Carra couldn't help frowning. The wave of disgust that rose in her heart was for a good reason. Audrey Copperstone, the second daughter of lord Livingstone Copperstone, and the first daughter of her mother who was from the Cawthorne family, relied on the love of their father, lord Livingstone and the Cawthorne family. With all these, she was arrogant, self-centred, and typically stubborn. Carra sighed deeply. The former owner of her body did not realize how much she suffered during her lifetime, only because of her weak perception and deceptively uncertain temperament. She could only dare to be a

Lord Livingstone was also quite surprised when he heard Carra's words. He always thought that the fire was an accident. So why did someone deliberately committed arson in Carra's Courtyard? He looked at Carra suspiciously and said, "Carra, this is a serious accusations. Do you have anything in support of this?" "Yes, father." Carra nodded and said. "Yesterday, I went to the yard to pack what remains of my things, and found something by accident. Something which proves that the fire was not an accident, but a deliberate one." "Sister Celia, are you representing our old lady?" Lord Livingstone looked at Sister Celia and asked. After receiving confirmation nod, Lord Livingstone continued. "Since the old lady sent Sister Celia over, I have to believe you. With our great lady's support, you can show your evidence. If it is true, then I will act justifiably on your behalf." "Thank you, father." After Carra thanked him, she turned and signaled Nella who called out to the group of people st
Madame Mildred was heartbroken after the old man died of illness and her own son also died unexpectedly. She had been living in the monastery for many years now. In the past, Carra had never dared to take the initiative to meet the old lady, for fear of being tortured by the mother and daughter's combination of the Cawthorne family. She just wanted to stay quietly in the small courtyard until she got married. But now, Carra was different. And at this moment, she was determined to withdraw from her arranged marriage to the royal family. A machan woman who had been disfigured, even if she was the eldest daughter of lord Livingstone Copperstone, in the famous Arthurian empire, she wouldn't be able to marry into any good family. And if she did, she would be treated worse than trash. Therefore, from the perspective of her current situation, relying on the big support of Madame Mildred was also the best choice for her. Early the next morning, Carra went to the monastery to see Madame M
