Chapter 831

The next day, Barret didn't manage to buy the Evergreen Pills after finishing his shift. So, he asked Amelia to buy eight Evergreen Pills at Arcane Sanctum the next day, as well as to look for a wet nurse and a midwife.Amelia agreed. After all, she needed to get Snowdrop Pills for Rebecca as well. Though Amelia had been neglecting the household duties due to her illness, she understood that there wasn't much money left in the family, though their estate remained looking as grand as ever.Before heading out to buy medicine the next day, she went to the accounts room to withdraw some money, only to find that there were only ten silver coins left in the account.She knew they were low on funds, but was shocked to discover that such a small amount was all that remained. She had thought there would be at least two or three hundred silver coins left, especially since the second branch of the family hadn't split off yet, and most of their funds had been turned over to the family fund.Ad

With her maid in tow, Amelia arrived at Arcane Sanctum and quickly inquired about the price of the Evergreen Pills. They were far from cheap—five silver coins each, and she needed eight of them. In the frigid weather, she felt the sweat on her forehead and struggled to hold back tears, unable to make a decision.The shop assistants at Arcane Sanctum recognized her by now and were aware of her situation.One of them, Paul, spoke up, "Madam Amelia, these Evergreen Pills are intended for women who are weak and anemic after childbirth. If you're looking to replenish energy and blood, you can brew the medicine yourself, which is much cheaper. Besides, one pill is usually sufficient for childbirth. There's no need to buy so many. It's not like eight women are giving birth at the same time."Wiping away her tears, Amelia hurriedly asked, "One is enough? Really?""Absolutely. If you're still worried, you could buy two. The pill isn't a guarantee for easy childbirth. It's mainly for those w

Amelia stared wide-eyed at Rebecca's furious and twisted face. The words "divorce" and "get out" left her feeling dazed and empty-headed. Confused and helpless, Amelia slowly stood up and began to walk out."Come back here! I'm not done yelling at you! How dare you? How dare you?! Asking your mother-in-law to sell her things—you have no shame, you filthy wretch! You dirty little thing!" Rebecca shouted, her rage intensifying as she saw Amelia trying to leave. "Come back here! Someone grab her!"Perhaps it was due to Amelia's trembling body and unsteady steps that resembled a fragile vase on the verge of shattering, but no one dared to physically restrain her.Instead, they urged, "Madam Amelia, please wait!"It was as if Amelia couldn't hear them. She continued walking, step by step, back toward her own courtyard. However, at the end of the corridor, she caught sight of Viola, heavily pregnant and supported by Poppy.Instinctively, Amelia took a step back, remembering how Viola ha

Chapter 834

The last flicker of hope in Amelia's heart vanished.The exhausting days and nights pressed down on her, making it hard to breathe. Her harsh mother-in-law and sister-in-law, the inaction of the men, and that wicked woman, Aurora, who occasionally emerged from her hiding place in Blessed Haven to snatch things away—it all added up.This house no longer felt like a home. It was a cage.Dragged to Rebecca's chamber, Amelia was forced to kneel beside the bed. She looked up blankly at her father-in-law and Barrett, both wearing expressions of blame. Her gaze shifted to her husband, whose eyes burned with fury.He slapped Amelia hard, then turned to his mom and said, "Mom, please calm down. I've already taught her a lesson. She won't dare do that again."Seeing her son's devotion, Rebecca finally relented, "Fine. She's not from a prominent family, so it's not surprising that she's a bit stingy and shabby in her ways."Amelia's cheek throbbed with pain, but it was nothing compared to t

Hearing Charlotte's remarks, Tara concluded that Amelia was likely not with that side of the family and returned to report to her mistress.Recalling the events from the previous day, Rebecca couldn't help but sneer. "It's probably because of what happened last night that she's feeling defiant. I've spoiled her too much. Forget about her. Where can she possibly go?"Her family's no longer in the capital. Her dad's been stuck in a minor post out of town for so long that he hasn't been able to come back. And even if he does return, does she really think she can make a scene with her stepmother around?"Tara grew a bit concerned. "Shouldn't we send someone to look for her? Madam Amelia rarely goes out without saying anything."Rebecca's expression darkened with irritation. "No need to look for her. If I do that, she'll think too highly of herself. She was in the wrong from the start for mismanaging the household, and she even had the audacity to ask me to sell my jewelry to make ends

Chapter 836

Previously, due to Salvador's focus on the Eleanor treason case, Carissa had not attended court. Today marked her first time in court after the case was wrapped up, so by the time Frederick arrived at Hell Monarch Estate, Carissa and Rafael had already left.As he couldn't meet with Carissa, Frederick informed Jacob about the situation.Jacob didn't dismiss the matter just because it involved the Warren family. He invited Frederick in for coffee, chatted briefly with Lily, and then sent for Violet to ask her opinion.He knew that Carissa had instructed Violet's people to keep an eye on Barrett to see if he continued his association with Yuvan. So, she might have some insights into the happenings at Valor Estate.However, when Violet arrived, she yawned and said, "I don't know. I haven't been watching Valor Estate closely. I just instructed my people to keep tabs on Yuvan's movements. I'm aware of who he's been in contact with, but I really have no idea about what's going on in the

Ivy said, "Although my mentor doesn't want to treat Madam Rebecca, he still keeps an eye on Madam Amelia since she comes in for Snowdrop Pills. Every time she comes to buy medicine, he instructs the shop assistants to ask about her situation. Madam Amelia has become familiar with them and tends to vent a bit."Yesterday, she didn't say much, but they noticed she had been crying. In the past, she would talk about how she handles everything at home and takes care of her mother-in-law. Madam Viola manages the accounts, but Madam Amelia only gets a little money trickling through her fingers. When Madam Amelia can't cover the household expenses, she has to sell or pawn her own things. It sounds like she's really been feeling the pressure."When they arrived at Lily's room, Frederick was still there. The two of them were catching up while Lulu sat nearby.Lily's complexion was not good, and upon hearing them talk about Amelia, she sighed and said, "Madam Amelia is too weak. She lacks a ba

Chapter 838

Carissa had been Amelia's sister-in-law for a year and felt she understood the latter's character fairly well. Cowardly and timid, she was the softest person among the members of the Warren family.Carissa had some insight into the current situation at Valor Estate. Rebecca had yet to recover, Viola was pregnant and unable to attend to the older woman, and Aurora, who was practically hiding away in Blessed Haven, was even less likely to help.That left Amelia as the only person who could tend to Rebecca.When Carissa was in the Warren family, she had taken on that role herself. Though Rebecca had her demands, she didn't make things difficult for Carissa, especially since her dowry gave her a solid standing.But Amelia was in a different position altogether."Could it be that she suffered some injustice?" Carissa suggested.Violet nodded. "She's definitely facing some kind of injustice. It must be pretty severe if it drove her to run out in the middle of the night. I heard from Li

Charlotte sighed. "At first, I had no idea what was happening. I try to stay out of the main household's affairs as much as possible. I've wanted to separate from them for a long time, but have always feared that outsiders will think the Warren family is divided. So, I held back."Lately, things at Valor Estate have become chaotic. Since Viola became pregnant, she's been nominally in charge, but Amelia is still the one managing things. The only thing she needs to clear with Viola is the money she withdraws. With Rebecca's health fluctuating, Amelia has been by her side, tending to her. You know how Rebecca is—she has nothing but disdain for Amelia and opposes her in everything."Carissa nodded. "I can guess Amelia's predicament.""This morning, Amelia disappeared. They searched every corner of Valor Estate and even came to my house looking for her, insisting I was hiding her. I told them I hadn't seen her, but they didn't believe me. I had to get angry before they accepted it. I lat

Chapter 840

The shop assistants at Arcane Sanctum were familiar with Amelia, and Paul recounted what had happened yesterday."She must have pawned some jewelry to come here. When she arrived, she looked dazed and was clutching a pawn ticket. I took a quick glance, and it was from a pawnshop called Treasure Exchange."Right away, she asked to buy seven or eight Evergreen Pills. I suggested she only needed two—one for childbirth and one for postpartum recovery. There's really no need for more at other times," he said, based on his observations."You could tell she had been crying, right?""Absolutely. She hadn't even dried her tears when she walked in.""Thank you," Carissa said, not wanting to pry further.She then had the staff member lead her to Treasure Exchange.As she was dressed in official uniform, the shopkeeper produced the items that Amelia had pawned when asked about them. Carissa recognized them as gifts she had once given Amelia."She said she would redeem them, so they're not
