All Chapters of Her Graceful War Song: Chapter 481 - Chapter 490

The moment everyone heard Rafael's question, their hearts sank.Noah hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please forgive me. No one has bullied Lady Helen...""Earl of Gracehold, are you saying my mother is lying and falsely accusing you?" Rafael coldly retorted."N-no, that's not what I meant."Although the Earl of Gracehold held a position in court, when facing someone as cold and imposing as the Hell Monarch—a seasoned general from the battlefield—his confidence faltered.Under Rafael's piercing gaze, he felt a chill run down his spine."It's all a misunderstanding—just a misunderstanding," said Noah.Having gathered her wits, Dorothy immediately questioned, "Are you trying to throw your weight around, Your Highness?"Samuel finally recalled his scholarly pride and disdain for powerful princes like Rafael.He scoffed coldly, "Lady Helen was throwing her weight around. She barged into my family home to meddle in our internal affairs. And now, even you are stepping in to protect h

Some of the servants rushed outside, only to find the courtyard in total disarray, no different from the chaos in the main hall.His face ashen and lifeless, Noah stepped forward and bowed. "Has your anger been fully vented, Your Highness?"Rafael remained silent, his expression cold.It was Carissa who spoke up instead, "Earl of Gracehold, do you harbor any resentment in your heart?"Noah gritted his teeth. "I wouldn't dare.""You wouldn't dare?" Carissa's face was devoid of any warmth. "It's best if you don't. Because next time, I promise you, the estate will be leveled to the ground."Noah had witnessed the grandeur of her wedding and knew that behind Carissa stood not only the Hell Monarch's household, but also a number of martial artists. In fact, there were even two martial artists affiliated with her currently stationed here in his own household.Forget leveling the estate—if Carissa wanted, she could kill everyone in Gracehold Estate without leaving a trace.Tonight, No

Ruby continued to cry uncontrollably, her sobs wracking her body. Despite her tears, her fingers clung desperately to Samuel's shirt, as if holding onto him was the only thing keeping her grounded. Though her eyes had run dry, her cries were still filled with a deep sense of hurt and vulnerability."Such a mess!" Rafael commented as he stood up, taking Carissa's hand in his.He turned to the stunned Helen. "Mom, let's go."Helen snapped out of her shock and rose to her feet.But before leaving, she glanced at Heather and said, "I just went in to see Leona. She thought it was you and was so happy, but when she realized it wasn't, she was disappointed. You're such a weak mother, so it's no wonder your daughter turned out the same. You know very well who I caused a scene for today. If you have any shred of dignity as a mother, don't let this slide so easily. Otherwise, you'll lose all respect in my eyes.""Mother, let's go. Every mother has maternal instincts. I'm sure Aunt Heather k

After Harvey and Heather left, the servants in Gracehold Estate were busy cleaning up. Apart from Samuel and Ruby, who remained in the sitting room, everyone else dispersed. Even Abigail did not stay as she escorted Dorothy back to her quarters.Before leaving, Dorothy gave strict orders that Noah was not to make things difficult for Samuel."Which of the young men in this family is as outstanding as he is? The king personally selected Samuel as one of the top scholars. Him losing his position is only a temporary setback. Which family doesn't have multiple wives and concubines? It's just that some petty people are stirring up trouble.""Mom, go rest," Noah responded, but he didn't agree. He simply gestured for his wife to escort Dorothy away.Noah then turned his gaze to Ruby, who was sobbing uncontrollably in Samuel's arms. He felt a surge of frustration."Why are you crying? If you hadn't provoked Leona, would tonight's events have happened?"Still shielding Ruby, Samuel spoke

Carissa had Violet arrange for someone to keep an eye on Samuel for a few days. Despite everything, this once-renowned scholar, who had been favored by his family's matriarch, still held onto his lofty ambitions.Over the past few days, Samuel had carried his written articles to the National Academy, hoping to find someone to present them to the king. But no one at the National Academy would pay him any attention anymore.Believing it was because they were jealous of his talent, Samuel seethed with frustration. Determined, he then sought out people at the Academy of Wisdom. But no matter where he went, people deliberately avoided him.After all, he was a top scholar who had been personally demoted by the king, destroyed his marriage for a favored mistress, abandoned his family to set up his own household, and even renounced his title as heir.To make matters worse, rumors had spread that he had married the daughter of a merchant, then forced her to use her dowry to buy the freedom
