Violet left, her heart heavy with both anger and sorrow. Melanie and Carmen were just a reflection of the women harmed by Eleanor. They weren't the worst off. They were still alive and had been able to leave Harmony Palace. Countless others had already turned to bones.The hatred in Violet's heart would never ease unless Eleanor was torn to a thousand pieces.-Meanwhile, Carissa remained at the Supreme Court. After Florence woke up and drank some soup, she was sent back to the interrogation room. Rafael insisted that further questioning was unnecessary, but Carissa had something to say.They were in the same interrogation room as before, but the scribe was absent, and Rafael sat hidden behind the partition screen.Carissa faced Florence, and the table stood between them.Florence's face was pale, and there wasn't any light in her eyes. There was a wry smile on her lips as she sighed. "What's the point of questioning me further? What else do you think I have to say? Do you

Florence remained silent for a long time. She was fully aware that Eleanor could never measure up to Melanie Sullivan. In Eleanor's heart, her grievances outweighed everything else. If she had married Hector and he disobeyed her even once, she would undoubtedly have caused a scene and shaken the very foundations of the earth.Carissa continued, "And you said that concubines are lowly while the grand princess is noble. So, no matter what she does to them, it's all considered a blessing. If I were to give you such a 'blessing', would you kneel in gratitude and offer up your fingers and toes for me to chop off one by one?"Florence didn't look up. Her eyes were downcast, and she was unable to muster a single retort."Most of those so-called lowly concubines were favored young women in their families. Whether from wealthy households or common folk, their parents likely spoiled them just like you spoiled Grand Princess Eleanor."But they were abducted and quietly met terrible ends wit

Matthew said in a low voice, "I've looked through it as well, Your Highness. Fortunately, this records the origins of those women, so we can send people to inform each of their families.""Have the retrieval teams returned yet?" Rafael asked."Not yet. The well is very deep and has been sealed for a long time. We need to wait until the stench dissipates a bit before anyone can go down. The people sent to retrieve the box reported that they had descended, but there were decayed and swollen bodies in the well that couldn't be brought up—more than one, in fact. These rotting corpses are also hindering the retrieval of other remains.""Are the coroners on-site? Send a request to the Royal Citadel and have them dispatch some to assist," Rafael commanded."They have already gone.""Good. Have the weapons been accounted for? I need to report to the palace," Rafael inquired further."Yes, the inventory is here." Matthew quickly pulled a ledger from the table and handed it to Rafael. "Eve

Chapter 754

Since the night of the Emberfest Festival, after Molly and Fiona returned home and shared what happened at Harmony Palace, Yuvan had been consumed by anxiety.He didn't need Wayne to advise him. He understood that it was crucial not to leave the capital for Valken at such a critical moment. Otherwise, it would be like declaring his guilt. Wayne advised him to focus on his duties in the palace, feigning ignorance about everything that had transpired. Those Yuvan had brought to the capital had to remain low and not do anything.On the surface, Yuvan maintained a calm demeanor; inside, he was a whirlpool of turmoil. He wanted to gather information but had no way to do so. He knew that those who had been closely involved with Eleanor were all on edge, and his status as a prince made things even more delicate.After considering his options, the only person he could potentially glean information from was Molly, whose cousin, Violet, resided at Hell Monarch Estate and was Carissa's close f

Molly replied coldly, "I am the prince's wife. There's no question of blame between us. But if this matter is troubling him, I will take it seriously. Get a carriage ready. I'll leave right away."Seeing her willingness to go, Fiona didn't care how condescending Molly's tone was. Fiona hurried outside to call for the carriage.As soon as Molly stepped out, she spotted Carissa approaching with a large contingent of Capital Guards. At first, Molly didn't recognize Carissa, but after a moment of scrutiny, she identified her.Carissa was accompanied by Michael and a dozen guards, and she had made a grand entrance. Their show of force was deliberate, as they intended to interrogate several noblewomen and titled ladies. It was essential for Carissa to make a statement, to show that if she could confront Yuvan and his household with such authority, then the other noble families could expect nothing less in terms of respect.If she didn't create a similar spectacle for the other families

Carissa didn't seem angered by Stephanie's tone. Instead, she turned to the scribe, Kirk, and said flatly, "Note that Lady Stephanie appears impatient and unwilling to cooperate. This raises concerns of defiance against royal orders."Kirk opened his book, and Michael quickly prepared the ink."Understood, Commander Sinclair."Stephanie was taken aback, her cheeks flushing with indignation. "Carissa, don't say such nonsense! When have I ever defied orders?"Carissa remained unmoved in her seat and continued, "Also note that Lady Stephanie scolded me and has displayed an extremely poor attitude."Kirk's quill flew across the page. "Noted. It's been recorded."Stephanie walked over and saw that Kirk had indeed written down Carissa's words. In a fit of anger, she reached out to tear the page, but Michael swiftly blocked her with his sword. Then, he coldly said, "Note that Lady Stephanie attempted to destroy the testimony."Stephanie stumbled back two steps. She was caught off gua

When Carissa asked the question, no one answered. Whatever they said would be recorded. Disloyalty toward one's parents or elderly relatives was a grave sin. Even if they were not held accountable, it would not benefit their future prospects if word got out. In a noble family, who would want to marry a disloyal daughter?Among them, only Randall showed a hint of guilt, but he remained silent.Carissa glanced at them and said to Kirk, "Make a note of this—Lady Avis' children, as well as the concubine's children in the household, have nothing to say. I can't tell if they are ashamed or indifferent."Stephanie quickly replied, "How can you say that? How can we not have wanted to take care of our mom? The truth is our dad was unwell at the time, so we had to take care of him. Besides, we were still young and unmarried. It wouldn't have been appropriate for us to go to Verdant Monastery."A mocking glint flickered in Carissa's eyes."So, because your dad was ill, you all stayed in

After Fiona finished speaking, she suddenly covered her mouth for a moment, looking at Carissa in terror. "Did you just say that girl died three years after entering Harmony Palace? She had her fingers and toes chopped off? Heavens, how could that happen? What did she do wrong? I thought she came from a decent family and had good character, which is why I sent her to Grand Princess Eleanor. What could she have possibly done to deserve that?""She erred by being seen by you," Carissa said. "What?" Fiona's face registered shock and innocence. "I truly didn't expect this. I had good intentions. I thought the Marquis of Grovehill's family was a noble household. Even if the girl was just a concubine, it would be better than marrying a commoner."Carissa replied coldly, "Are you saying you didn't know she would end up staying at Harmony Palace instead of Grovehill Estate? That's quite the convenient excuse."Fiona hurriedly explained, "I really didn't know! After all, Lord Henry doesn

Chapter 759

The Quinton family had navigated the political landscape for many years, and they were now in their prime. Malcolm had gained significant favor during the reign of King Sigmund. He prided himself on understanding the late king's intentions, yet he couldn't grasp the current king's mindset.He couldn't understand why Salvador would appoint Carissa as Mystic Army's commander. This position was critical. If the Hell Monarch and his people had treasonous intentions, the power that came with that role was considerable.Thus, he convened a family meeting, where he imposed strict measures and expressed his dissatisfaction with Carissa."Causing such a commotion will turn the noble families of the capital upside down. I fear it may lead to wrongful accusations. I never realized she was such an impatient and self-serving person. She made an example out of Prince Yuvan's household right off the bat—how can we expect her to show any mercy to the other families? It's simply absurd."Felix and

Now that Viola was pregnant, her thoughts were often clouded, and she was overly sensitive. When she heard about Barrett's promotion, she felt joy. But upon learning that Carissa was his superior, tears filled her eyes.She leaned against Barrett's arm, choking on her words. "I'm not jealous of her, but how can she possibly hold power over you? You discovered the evidence of Grand Princess Eleanor's treachery. If it weren't for you, the grand princess' ambitions might still be hidden from everyone."I just can't accept it! Why are you always overshadowed by her? When it comes to contributions and achievements, haven't you surpassed her? How could the king allow a woman to be the commander? To let a woman oversee the Mystic Army, along with the Crown Guard and the Royal Guard—it's absurd! The men have lost all their dignity!"Barrett listened to her choked voice and felt a twinge of irritation in his heart. He remembered the assassin who had faced him that night—he knew exactly who
