All Chapters of Her Graceful War Song: Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

In the dead of night, everything finally erupted. Feeling utterly exhausted, Amelia turned and left the room.Behind her, shouts and screams filled the air, and Serena's piercing cries mingled with the chaotic uproar. Amelia slowly made her way to the main hall of the inner estate. It was the same chair where Carissa used to sit when she was managing the household affairs.Managing those affairs was no easy task. Carissa had always handled it with patience and a pleasant demeanor, even enduring long nights when Rebecca was ill. She would never rest, and was always attending to what needed to be done.Carissa had seemed tireless, but who wasn't tired? It was just a matter of persevering through it all.Amelia had never understood this before, but now, she saw it all too clearly.She sank into a chair, staring at the empty hall. To conserve oil, only one lantern was lit in the corridor, casting a dim light that illuminated the desolate tables and chairs. Valor Estate felt like a m

After Rafael had gone to the Pathfinders Guild, Helen had once again summoned Carissa to the palace.Following the events at Eleanor's birthday banquet, Helen's view of Carissa had changed. However, it wasn't enough to change her mind about accepting Carissa as her daughter-in-law.Helen considered various approaches; she realized she had no effective means to sway Carissa through coercion, especially given how Carissa had dared to defy Eleanor. It was clear that strong-arm tactics would not work. Thus, Helen decided to appeal to Carissa’s emotions and reason with her, hoping she would voluntarily withdraw.Upon arriving at the Evergreen Palace, Carissa was greeted with a table set with an array of snacks and coffee. Helen was known for her haughty demeanor, but she managed to force a smile, though it was clearly strained and unnatural.After Carissa paid her respects, Helen dismissed the attendants and began to chat with Carissa in a casual manner."I genuinely mean well for yo

After leaving the palace, Carissa boarded the carriage bound for Harmony Palace. Today, she had originally planned to visit Eleanor, but the sudden royal summons had delayed her. However, the delay wasn't a major setback. By afternoon, Eleanor would have awakened from her nap and would be full of energy, so Carissa expected not to be disappointed.In recent days, Carissa had been organizing the storerooms, sorting out the dowry items brought back from Valor Estate. Some items needed to be sold, while others were to be stacked in a corner.Since she was marrying Rafael, she couldn't use those items as part of her dowry. After tidying up the storerooms, she needed to make a list of what new items were necessary. Frederick was to prepare this list.Among the clutter, she discovered the miniature sculpture of the chastity belt sent by Eleanor. It was exquisitely carved and made from a rare, precious type of marble.Such an expensive "gift" obviously had to be returned to Eleanor. Whe

Derek entered the king's study, and reported, "Your Majesty, Grand Princess Eleanor has come to the palace and requests to see you."Salvador looked up from the mountain of reports before him. He tossed aside his pen, and rubbed his temples. "Did she say what it was about?""She didn't specify, but she appears to be quite angry," Derek replied cautiously.Salvador sneered, "My aunt has always been domineering. During festivals, she visits the palace and treats me like a child. However, she seldom comes to see me alone. After all, what could be so significant that a great princess like her can't handle? It's likely related to the events at the birthday banquet."He had heard about what happened at Eleanor's birthday banquet, though he was unsure of the full details. It had been several days since then—was she still aggrieved by that event?"Show her in," Salvador said.Derek hesitated before adding, "Grand Princess Eleanor is at Serenity Palace. She has also summoned Lady Helen."

Salvador raised a hand to calm the room, and said, "Aunt Eleanor, please try to calm down. It is indeed improper for Carissa to have trespassed and insulted you—it shows a lack of the grace expected from a noble lady. "What exactly did she say to you? Are there any witnesses? If you provide details, I will take charge. As for the accusation of her fabricating the miniature chastity belt sculpture, I'll have the Royal Citadel officials investigate. If it turns out to be false and an attempt to slander you, I'll ensure she is punished accordingly.""Witnesses? There are plenty! The entire staff of my palace can testify. She barged in without any restraint, and the guards couldn't stop her. As for her insults, the people in my palace also heard them," Eleanor replied in a firm tone.She paused before continuing, "As for the sculpture, having it investigated by the Royal Citadel officials is unnecessary. Conducting a large-scale investigation would only stir up more commotion. The comm
