Chapter 1161

Unexpectedly, Oliver learned that Barrett had arrived at the Southern Frontier and personally appointed him as a household soldier in Redstone Manor.Redstone Manor's household soldiers were mainly responsible for handling all of Oliver's travel arrangements and ensuring his safety. This was especially important because enemy assassins often tried to infiltrate and target the marshal. While such threats had never materialized during Oliver's tenure, there had been quite a few attempts during Hector and Rafael's time.Oliver had already learned from Evelyn that Barrett had divorced Viola. Regardless of how Oliver felt about his sister, Barrett's actions were an affront to him. Given his current position, Barrett's treatment of his sister was nothing less than a challenge to his authority.Thus, he summoned Barrett and immediately set the latter to menial tasks—fetching water, chopping wood, sweeping the courtyard, and even serving food in the kitchen.Barrett obeyed the orders wordl

Perhaps Oliver wanted Barrett to see how grand and impressive his presence was, with people surrounding him and giving him attention whenever he entered or left. After showing off enough, he finally called for Barrett to meet him.In less than two years at the Southern Frontier, Oliver had gained a lot of weight. Though he wasn't exactly obese, his double chin was visible as he sat in the grand tiger-skin-covered armchair.He looked down from his lofty position, his eyes filled with a condescending superiority."I've heard about what happened between you and Viola," Oliver began slowly, his voice carrying the authority of someone in power. "It's just as well. A man as ordinary as you never deserved to be with my sister."Barrett bowed and lowered his head, keeping his expression neutral, answering only with a soft murmur. He said nothing more.Oliver sneered, his voice sharp as he reprimanded Barrett, "I never expected you to be so useless. You were made deputy commander of the Ni

The next day, Barrett learned that the so-called training wasn't about military formations at all—it was farming.September was the ideal time to plant winter wheat, and since the Southern Frontier had been ravaged by war, resources were still scarce. After years of constant conflict, there were fewer people around, and the soldiers were tasked with helping in the fields.In addition to winter wheat, they were also planting cabbage, radishes, and melons.Timothy told Barrett he had arrived just in time for the busy farming season.From dawn until dusk, Barrett worked tirelessly. Yet, amidst the chaos of planting, he still found a moment to write a letter to Michael.-Back in the capital, Michael received Barrett's letter and stared at it blankly for a long time, scratching his head. Had their relationship really been that close?The letter was long, taking up three full sheets of paper. Much of it was trivial, much like the rambling conversations Michael had heard from Barrett

Rafael paused for a moment, then asked, "By the way, did Isaac agree to Madam Zoey's request?""I spoke to him about it. He said he would think it over, but he hasn't made up his mind yet," Carissa replied."I think you should tell him the full story and let him decide for himself," Rafael said. "After all, he's the one who bought some of the properties Madam Zoey had released previously. It's clear he wants to help the Earl of Silverstone's family in some way."Carissa nodded, but then shook her head and corrected him. "Not exactly to help the Earl of Silverstone's family. More to help those who care for him…and perhaps the children."The more she learned, the more Carissa began to suspect that Evelyn had been involved in David's plans years ago. But perhaps, in time, Evelyn had experienced a change of heart, leading her to visit Isaac only to find him dead in the fire. Feeling guilty, she had blamed David as she was unwilling to carry the weight of that remorse.That was probabl

Oscar dropped to his knees, tears streaming down his face as he called out, "Grand Princess Eleanor!" He then collapsed onto the floor, weeping bitterly.However, Eleanor didn't even lift her eyes. It was as if she were lost to herself, neither seeing nor hearing him.After his crying fit subsided, Oscar took out a tray of pastries. Argent was about to come over to inspect them, but Mabel stopped him."Prince Rafael said there's no need to inspect the pastries," Mabel said. "She's allowed to eat them."Oscar knelt on the ground, his eyes red and swollen. His voice trembled as he spoke. "Your Grace, please just take a bite. This is from Lady Ruth. She specifically sent them to you. It's your favorite sweet pastry. There are more cakes, too. You can eat them slowly."At the mention of Ruth, Eleanor finally raised her eyes to look at him. Her face was dark and gaunt, filthy with grime, and the skin around her eyes was a deep gray. However, her bloodshot eyes were still noticeable

Kylie instructed that her children should be taken out to play, then called for Jocelyn's mother, Vera Jansen, to come in for a conversation.When Vera heard Kylie mention Thomas, she frowned slightly. "Your Majesty, General Farrell is much older than Jocelyn. He may not be a suitable match. However, Marquis of Glandale's third son, Hubert Schmitt, is a promising young man. He's young and talented, and has already passed the provincial examinations last year. Though he won't inherit a title, with his talent and the support of the Quinton family, he could certainly make a name for himself."Hubert was striking and composed. At just 19, he had already passed the provincial exams and was now preparing for the national exams. His future seemed full of promise.Vera's words caused Lydia, who was standing nearby, to chuckle. "Madam Vera, do you think the Quinton family has many promising sons?"Vera couldn't help but feel proud. "Naturally. There's not a weakling among them. The third

As soon as Helen entered the palace, she couldn't wait to take a stroll in the gardens with Dakota and Josephine. The red ruby jewelry set she wore today was so striking against her complexion that she wanted everyone to notice it—preferably on purpose.Meanwhile, Rafael accompanied Carissa to visit Victoria and chat with her. A crowd of noble ladies, both from inside and outside the palace, gathered around to join them.Just then, Thomas' mom, Alice, entered the palace to offer her greetings to Victoria. To her surprise, Victoria asked about Thomas' marriage right in front of so many noble ladies.Alice felt a wave of bitterness rise in her heart but didn't dare say a word of complaint to Victoria. Instead, she forced a smile and replied, "Your Majesty, matters of marriage cannot be rushed."Victoria sighed. "It's a shame for him to be dragged into all this for no reason. The Farrell family has always been so kind-hearted, yet some people are causing all this chaos."Alice then r

As the ladies were chatting, Ruth sent someone to privately ask Carissa to join her. After receiving the invitation, Carissa checked with Victoria for permission and went.Ruth was Augustus' concubine, and she was supposed to be living in comfort on her son's fief. Instead, she remained alone in a secluded palace in the royal palace.When Carissa followed Oscar into Everlasting Palace, the atmosphere struck her as cold and desolate. There was no sign of festivity or hint of the holiday spirit. It felt as if they were not only separated by a few palace halls, but also by an unbridgeable divide of heaven and earth.Since winter had set in, Ruth's health had worsened. Yuvan's son, Randall, had remained in the capital. Today, he was in the palace, attending to his grandmother.Upon seeing Carissa, Randall rose and bowed. "Greetings, Your Grace."Carissa gave him a cool glance. "Greetings, Your Highness. I see you've come to the palace today.""Yes, I'm here to keep my grandmother com
