Chapter 691

Daniel's home was not far from the Sinclair family's main residence, Sinclair Estate. It was a house with two entrances, two exits, and a patio.Usually, Daniel's wife, Thalia, would accompany her mother-in-law, Hilda, after dinner. The two women would do embroidery together, with Thalia usually making clothes for her unborn child or two sons. But tonight, not only did Thalia not show up at all, the sound of the children playing couldn't be heard either.Finding it odd, Hilda sent her maid, Doris, to check on them. When she arrived at Thalia's quarters and inquired, Thalia's maid, Fern, looked surprised."Isn't Madam Thalia doing embroidery with Madam Hilda? She left an hour ago with the two boys," said Fern."No, Madam Hilda hasn't seen Madam Thalia. That's why she sent me to ask," replied Doris, also surprised."How can that be? Madam Thalia had dinner and took her pregnancy medicine, then left.""Did she say she was heading to Madam Hilda's place?""Yes, she did. Pansy went w

Rafael noticed that Jacob was holding a note. It seemed he knew the whereabouts of Thalia and her children.A stunned Frederick protested, "Why don't we send more people out? It's late, and we need to find them immediately. If anything happens, it'll be too late!"He glanced at Carissa, but she remained silent.Rafael spoke up, "Frederick, follow Jacob's instructions. Take people to look for them. And as for the Sinclair family, don't say too much to them. Just let them know we will also be sending people out. If they're not found by tomorrow, have them report it to the Royal Citadel."Since Rafael had given his order, Frederick replied, "Understood. I'll follow your wishes, Your Highness."Just as Frederick left, Violet rushed in. She had just finished bathing and was alarmed when she heard the staff mention that Frederick had come from Northwatch Estate, prompting her to hurry over in case something was wrong."What happened?" Violet asked as she hastily pinned up her damp hair

"Do we have a map of Harmony Palace? Where's the dungeon located?" Violet asked."Of course we do. We're supposed to make our move tomorrow night. How could we not have one?" Rafael replied.Violet felt a surge of frustration. Despite her and Claire's efforts to gather intelligence, they hadn't uncovered anything significant."How did you manage to sneak people into Harmony Palace so quietly? It's one of the most difficult places to infiltrate, especially for such important tasks. And it's not just one person—you've arranged for multiple!" Violet exclaimed.Wanting to steer away from the unpleasant topic of cleaning toilets, Jacob got straight to the point, explaining, "The initial plan is for His Highness to sneak in. However, there's no way to leave messages for our people to see at this late hour. They can't help us, so it's all on His Highness now."Fortunately, we know the layout and patrol patterns of Harmony Palace. The best time to enter is around nine at night, but it's a

Carissa didn't answer her, instead saying, "Tomorrow, Raf and I are heading out of the city. Can you help me paint my nails so I won't have to rush in the morning?""My lady, where are you going tomorrow? Are you taking me with you?" Lulu asked eagerly, her face lighting up."No." Carissa shot her a playful glare. "I just feel like going out."Janice continued to glance around in confusion.Rafael and Carissa had clearly entered the room together, so why was Carissa alone now? Janice was sure Rafael hadn't left through the door, as it had been locked the whole time. Had he snuck out through a window? Why such secrecy?As they took out the dye and prepared to paint Carissa's nails, Violet's voice rang out, "Carissa, I can't find the Mystic Pearl earrings you gave me. Are they here with you?"She stepped into the room with a frustrated look on her face. "Help me check if they're in here."Carissa laughed. "But you never take off your jewelry in my room. How could they be here? Did

Such a large-scale search naturally caught Helen's attention. She had gone to bed early and was fast asleep when the commotion outside woke her. Gillian, who was sleeping in the same room, was asked to check what was happening.When Helen heard that a servant had stolen Violet's Mystic Pearl earrings, her anger flared."Our household provides a much better life than other estates. The person who stole the earrings doesn't appreciate that. If I catch them, I'll have their arms broken!" Helen exclaimed."Lady Carissa has arrived," someone announced from outside."Why is she here instead of handling things outside? I'm already in bed," said Helen, reluctant to leave her warm bed amidst the cold night air."Mother." Carissa strode in confidently, alone.She knew that the Mystic Pearl earrings would be found in Janice's quarters. Since Janice originally served under Helen, she should decide how to deal with her once the earrings were found.Helen's displeasure evaporated the moment s

Helen randomly picked up a hairpin. There was a gemstone set into its head, and she recognized the handicraft of the product all too well. It was from The Gilded Tower, which sold imitations of The Golden Tower's merchandise.She picked up a bracelet and examined its craftsmanship, which was of similar quality. There were dozens of such items. Combined with the banknotes and ingots, the items on the table roughly totaled a thousand silver coins.At first, Helen thought Janice might have stolen them. However, who in Hell Monarch Estate would buy and use jewelry from The Gilded Tower? After all, Helen had already sold off any such items she owned to distance herself from them."Lily, take everyone else out for now. I'll interrogate her with my mother-in-law," Carissa ordered."Understood." Lily waved her hand and led everyone else out, including Mindy and Sonia. Both looked equally shocked. They had shared a room with Janice and had no idea she possessed such wealth.Violet entered

Helen's question revealed that she had guessed Janice had accepted a bribe and betrayed the Hell Monarch's family. She just didn't know who had bought Janice off."Grand Princess Eleanor," Carissa said softly.Helen's anger flared. "What does she want? When did it start?""It's likely Janice was already under Grand Princess Eleanor's thumb while you were still in the palace. Wasn't Grand Princess Eleanor doing business with you back then? Janice must have sung her praises to you repeatedly," Carissa explained.Helen narrowed her eyes. She recalled the past and became increasingly furious. "She didn't just say nice things. She practically bragged about her! She claimed Grand Princess Eleanor's reputation for virtue was widespread, and that she was highly respected among the noble families in the capital. She also claimed Grand Princess Eleanor was so skilled at handling things that everyone praised her, making her sound more capable than even my sister. It almost made me respect h

Meanwhile, Rafael had already infiltrated Harmony Palace but had yet to reach the dungeon.Harmony Palace's dungeon had four entrances. The craftsmen who originally built it were long dead, silenced after the fact. However, Jacob had managed to find the son of the foreman. The foreman's son possessed a set of blueprints from that time, which was how they obtained the dungeon's layout.The dungeon was roughly half the size of Harmony Palace, dug deep into the ground. Bricks were used during construction, dividing the space into four separate cell blocks—north, south, east, and west.Each entrance corresponded to one of the cell blocks, with the eastern cell block accessible through the western courtyard. The purpose of what lay within remained a mystery, but it was clear that the southern and eastern blocks weren't meant for imprisonment. Based on the blueprints, they were simply two large underground chambers.In contrast, the northern and western cell blocks were designed for hold

"Sir, may I inquire where this place is?" Daniel asked urgently. "Why have you taken our family captive? Have I offended you or your family? If I have, I offer my apologies here. But my wife and children are innocent. Please let them go. If you have a grudge, take it out on me. Do what you will, whether to kill or torture me.""When the time to kill you comes, I fear you'll just hide behind your wife and children. You're a worthless coward. Just shut up," Henry replied coldly.The drug in Daniel's system was nearly gone. He leaned against the small window, peering outside. "I won't hide. Just let my wife and children go. I don't care how I die.""I loathe your kind—the ones who pretend to be brave. It's as if you look down on a prince consort like me," Henry retorted. Then, he turned away icily and stepped into one of the cells.Eleanor had forbidden Henry from visiting during the Emberfest Festival, so he decided to hide in the dungeon to accompany Melanie Lester. He had bribed th

However, Jack and Curtis continued to tremble all over. One moment, they were safe at home. The next, a group of rough men had dragged them here and imprisoned them. The oldest of the two children had yet to reach eight. How could they not be afraid?Thalia was equally terrified, but as a mother, she steeled herself. Pushing aside her fear and worry, she joined her husband in comforting their two sons.But when the couple exchanged glances, their eyes were filled with despair and helplessness.Rafael listened to Daniel and Thalia's words in the cell next door. He couldn't help but feel a swell of admiration. His father-in-law's spirit truly radiated through every son of the Sinclair family, especially considering that Daniel had little interaction with Hector. Daniel was just a businessman, but he still possessed such unwavering resolve. Theodore had taught them well.What did it mean to be a true noble family? They embodied it. Even without many officials in the court, the
