Chapter 881

Zoey had a clear purpose for coming here today—she wanted to inquire about the embroidery workshop and the women's academy. If the people of Hell Monarch Estate were indeed establishing a women's academy, she hoped to secure a spot for her daughter.Normally, she would have brought her daughter with her, but doing so would make her intentions too obvious. It would seem as though she was pressuring Carissa to accept her daughter, which might make the princess consort uncomfortable.So, instead of bringing her daughter along, Zoey decided to gather information first and find out what was required. That way, she could go home and prepare everything."There's no need to be formal. Let's move to the side hall and chat," Carissa said with a smile, leading them to a smaller chamber.Meanwhile, Rafael, who had just woken up, was left facing Davis, who was still yawning.Davis covered his mouth with his hand, stifling another yawn, and asked, "Are there any places to lie down here, Your Hi

Chapter 882

At first, Violet tried to keep things relaxed with her apprentices. After all, it was the New Year—what was the point of acting all high and mighty as their mentor?But when she saw the three couples treating her with such reverence, and when Max's wife, Esther, personally took a cup of coffee from a servant and handed it to her, she realized that the role of a mentor had to be taken seriously. The other two women stood by Violet's side attentively, as if she was their mother-in-law.At that point, even Violet had no choice but to play her role. Still, she couldn't help but wonder—did it really have to be this way?Back at the Inferno Guild, she wasn't treated like this. Most of the time, it was her mentor who pampered her. As for serving refreshments, that was usually left to the new apprentices. What business did she, a senior apprentice, have doing that? But when she first joined, no one had treated her that way either.A sense of guilt stirred within Violet, and she found herse

For the next two or three days, Carissa didn't have time to entertain guests. There was still much to handle with the Mystic Army, and she couldn't leave everything to others. Plus, she had to head back to the Capital Guard headquarters soon.Meanwhile, Rafael and Jacob were inspecting the site for the women's academy. There was a lot of repair work to be done, along with expansion plans, and the cold weather didn't help. Progress had slowed as they approached the New Year, but fortunately, the funds were in place, so things could move forward smoothly now.On the eighth day of January, Barrett submitted a formal application for mourning due to his mom's passing. He first presented it to his superior, Carissa, who then passed it on to the king.Salvador took a quick glance at the application and asked, "What do you think?"Carissa paused, wondering what the king meant."I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but I'm not sure what you're asking.""Military generals don't observe mourning. There

The announcement would be made after the New Year festivities, which meant that either a new leader for the Crown Guard would be appointed or Barrett would not be allowed to observe mourning for his mom.After Carissa left, Salvador examined Barrett's mourning application once more before tossing it back onto the desk.He turned to Derek and asked, "What do you think? Should Barrett be allowed to observe mourning?"Derek bowed respectfully. "Your Majesty, this is a matter of selecting officials. I dare not offer my opinion.""Although it's a matter of appointing officials, this is about someone serving directly under me in the Crown Guard. Speak freely."Derek thought for a moment before shaking his head. "I don't know, Your Majesty."Salvador's eyes sharpened, his gaze growing cold. "Is it that you don't know, or that you don't dare say?"Derek had served Salvador for many years and understood his temperament well. If it were any other official, one whose position could be easi

For a moment, no one spoke.Though it had been anticipated that the new king of Westhaven would inevitably investigate the Fawnrun City incident upon his ascension, no one had expected Edmund to act so quickly. He had barely settled into the throne, which was still warm from his predecessor, yet had already begun the investigation, going so far as to imprison Liam immediately.Liam had only just survived an assassination attempt, and his body had not fully healed. Now, with him thrown into the dungeon, no one knew if he could endure the harsh conditions.Rafael finally broke the long silence, saying, "The second thing he will do as king is likely to directly confront Starhaven and hold us accountable for what happened in Fawnrun City.""That's without a doubt," Jacob responded.Carissa turned to Rafael, concern in her eyes. "Have Scott and Wilfred managed to infiltrate Westhaven yet?"Those two members of the Septimus Tetra reconnaissance team were from Stonebrook District and ha

"Has Harvey really left the capital?" Carissa asked."We sent people to check for several nights. Dylan reported last night that Harvey isn't at his estate anymore. We've already sent men to track him in all three different directions. But if he's disguising himself, it'll be hard to catch him," Rafael replied.Jacob cursed under his breath. "This was a miscalculation. I didn't think he would dare leave the capital now."Carissa studied her nails, her eyes cold. "If it's confirmed, then it's time to let the king know Harvey isn't in the city."Rafael thought for a moment before coming up with a plan."Have Mom go to the palace tomorrow and ask the queen dowager to send a physician to Hartstone Estate. You should teach her how to speak in front of the queen dowager… It'd be best if Leona went, but don't disturb her and let her enjoy her life for now," he said.Helen had returned to Hell Monarch Estate on the eighth day of the new year. After staying in the palace for ten days, she

Since Helen had requested the tiara for Carissa, Victoria gave it to her. Helen immediately took the opportunity to ask for another one for herself. When a middle-aged woman pouted and acted coquettishly, even someone as high and mighty as Victoria couldn't refuse. She ordered that the newest pieces of jewelry be brought out for her sister to choose from.Naturally, Helen couldn't resist. She picked out seven or eight pieces without hesitation.Victoria didn't care much for material things, but if giving jewelry to her younger sister made her happy, then it was worth it.-Meanwhile, Keith and a royal physician, Seth Wright, headed to Hartstone Estate.Seth had long been trusted by Victoria. He was somewhat like his elder relative, Irvin, the Oversight Minister—stubborn, unyielding, and upright.Such a personality would have made it impossible for Seth to get far in the Royal Medical Academy, but Victoria had promoted him. Through him, she even knew the Wright family well enough

The thick curtains were drawn so tightly that not a breath of air could pass through. There were four or five charcoal burners scattered throughout the room. With the windows slightly open and the charcoal not producing smoke, the air circulated just enough to make the room warm without feeling stifling.Horace moved a stool into the second layer of curtains, then approached and gently placed the hand of the person lying in bed on the edge."Mr. Wright, please sit and check His Highness' heart rate."Seth sat down, intending to lift the curtain to see Harvey's face, but Horace stopped him."His Highness mustn't be exposed to the cold.""It's necessary to observe his complexion, not just his heart rate," Seth said, frowning.What was going on? If Harvey was sick, it was only right to focus on treatment.Keith stepped forward and pulled back the curtain with one swift motion. The figure lying in bed was trembling uncontrollably—he was clearly not Harvey.As Horace's face drained

After collecting his thoughts, Salvador was struck by a question—why had his mom suddenly sent someone to treat his uncle?He paused, deep in thought, then asked, "I heard from the palace servants that Aunt Helen came by today."Victoria chuckled. "Yes, I asked her to come. The Treasury Office sent over a batch of new jewelry, and among them was a pure-gold and seven-colored gemstone tiara. Kylie and Sylvia both wanted it, so I was caught in a dilemma."Kylie is the queen, so if she liked it, it should've gone to her. But Sylvia is carrying your son, which gives her great merit. I couldn't decide who to give it to, so I gave it to your aunt. Little did I know, she was like a thief—she not only took that tiara, but also snatched up seven or eight other pieces. I really regret it."Salvador laughed along with her. "If she likes it, then it's good. If she's happy, then you're happy, Mom."He wasn't concerned about material wealth. Making his mom happy was what mattered most.After d

Barrett called for the shopkeeper of The Grand Vault to come over, asking him to bring the staff along to appraise and price everything. As they cleared out one box after another, Barrett was surprised to find that Rebecca had hidden away gold ingots, as well as a large collection of valuable jewelry.Tara explained that some of it had been his mother's dowry, while some had been passed down from his grandmother. Since the family hadn't been split yet, it hadn't been given to the second branch of the family. There were also gifts from Carissa, which Rebecca had hidden away when she left the family. Thankfully, Carissa never asked about them.Barrett instructed Tara to separate the items that had been gifts from Carissa, planning to return them once they were sorted.Tara sighed. "To be honest, even if you return them to her, she probably won't want them. It might be better to give them to Madam Charlotte. After all, she and Lady Carissa were close.""Whether she gives them to Aunt
