Chapter 971

In the council hall of Hell Monarch Estate, Jacob laid out the profiles of the three female officials: Penny Durham, Yuna Rutherford, and Yasmine Stein."These three are Grand Princess Lisandra's close confidants. In Westhaven, women rarely hold important government positions. However, Ms. Durham was the first female official to rise to a fifth-rank position."Grand Princess Lisandra highly favors her. Next is Ms. Stein, the legitimate daughter of the head of Westhaven's Stein family. Marshal Liam's wife is her aunt. Finally, there's Ms. Rutherford. She comes from a commoner background and earned her place by topping the women's imperial exams. She's been working alongside Grand Princess Lisandra on state affairs. All three have been with the grand princess since their late king's time, and our investigation shows they are all highly loyal to her."Rafael picked up the documents, carefully scanning the details—names, ages, personalities, backgrounds, family information, when they st

Carissa hesitated for a moment before saying, "Go and bring Sebastian here. I'll think of a way to slip inside and take a look."No matter what, it was best to have Sebastian ready just in case.Violet nodded. "Alright, I'll go now."She hurried out and saddled the horse. The night air was still cold, and it would be quite troublesome for Sebastian to come out in this weather.Halfway there, she crossed paths with Travis, but it seemed like he didn't notice her. He rode straight past. She called out to him, and it took a moment before the sound of galloping hooves returned.Carissa instructed the Capital Guard to stand watch at the entrance, ensuring no one entered. If it turned out to be a trap, they had to be cautious and prepared. There was no harm in being extra careful. After that, she left the gatehouse and wandered around the perimeter of Concord Lodge. Since the area outside was filled with her men, she didn't think there would be much risk in walking around. After a whi

After a while, Winona appeared at the entrance of Concord Lodge. It was likely she hadn't come alone. When Carissa had seen her earlier, she had been dressed in stealth attire. But now, she wore her usual attire and her stealth attire was nowhere in sight.Carissa hurried over to greet her and asked, "What's the situation, Winona?" "I stayed on the roof of Grand Princess Lisandra's quarters for a while. She's unconscious. There are a few maids by her side. I overheard them talking—she came back from the Diplomatic Affairs Department not long ago and suddenly went into a fit. She even bit someone. After that, she lost consciousness," Winona replied."She went into a fit and bit someone? Could she have gone momentarily insane?" Violet exclaimed, astonished."Did you hear what they said in the main courtyard?" Carissa asked."They were arguing in the main courtyard. Some wanted to summon a royal physician or Sebastian, but others opposed it. Since I was on the roof, I couldn't tell

Chapter 974

Although Penny was a low-ranking female official, she had Lisandra's favor and full trust. Just now, it had been her fierce opposition that had swayed others, turning supporters into opponents.Still, there were a few, like the Diplomatic Affairs Department officials, who supported inviting Starhaven's renowned physician, Sebastian. His reputation had reached Westhaven; when Westhaven's previous king had been gravely ill, some court officials had even suggested summoning Sebastian for treatment.However, the late king refused to entrust his life to someone from Starhaven, which was why the idea was abandoned.The argument raged on. Carissa and Winona, seeing the chaos, quickly moved Sebastian toward the eastern courtyard."Stop them!" Penny shrieked, her voice cutting through the tension."Let me explain. Listen to me…" Violet stepped forward, grabbing Penny's arm. "We're only doing this for Grand Princess Lisandra. There are maids by her side. If we do anything suspicious, your p

Penny stormed in and saw that Lisandra's curtain had been lifted. Her face darkened, and she immediately snapped at Yuna, "How dare you?! How could you let a man from outside see Her Highness' sleeping form?"She moved to step forward and pull the curtain down, intending to have Sebastian thrown out. However, Yuna blocked her path. "Since she's already been seen, it's better to let the physician diagnose her properly."Penny's eyes widened in fury. "Yuna Rutherford! How dare you?!"Though Yuna was of lower rank and status than Penny, she hesitated only briefly before responding firmly, "Nothing is more important than Her Highness' health. She's been unconscious for more than four hours. If we don't find the cause soon, it may do serious harm to her."The other female official, Yasmine, stepped forward to support Yuna. "Since they're already here, let them take a look. What's the harm? Why are you so against it? You've been opposing everything—seems to me you don't care much about

The Westhaven envoys first looked at Javier, then at Sebastian. In their hearts, they were inclined to trust Javier as he had treated Lisandra for many years and was undeniably loyal. His long-standing dedication earned him their trust.However, Sebastian's medical skills were also exceptional, and his reputation was highly regarded even in Westhaven.Winona translated Javier's words, and Sebastian withdrew his hand from Lisandra's wrist.He turned to Winona and said, "Tell them—it's poison.""We can understand you just fine. There's no need to translate," Garrick quickly interjected. Most of the envoys present were fluent in Stellish, with only one or two having limited proficiency."So, tell us, what kind of poison is it?" asked Garrick.Sebastian glanced at Carissa. At that moment, she recalled the case from Brightmoor District—the woman who had been infected by Soulgrip Threadworms. That frail woman had grown immensely strong, even going into a violent frenzy.However, tha

Leroy furrowed his brows. This matter had nothing to do with him. He had recognized Penny's strange behavior, but it didn't matter what she had done. As long as Lisandra couldn't participate in the negotiations, the power to make decisions rested in his hands.However, there was one condition—Lisandra's life couldn't be harmed. After all, she was his niece. Arthur was gone. Even though Lisandra didn't share Leroy's stance on the war, he simply couldn't take her life.He found it odd that Penny, who had always been Lisandra's trusted confidant, would betray her. Was Penny in favor of the war? She had opposed it previously. And clearly, she didn't want Lisandra to die, nor was she willing to give up just like that.Penny couldn't be acting alone—someone must be pulling the strings behind her betrayal.Who was it? Edmund?Questions swirled in Leroy's mind, but he had no answers.His suspicions about Penny stemmed from his ties to Harvey, but the others wouldn't have noticed anything

There were four threadworms in total. The last two were a different color—their first half was red while their second half was a faint pink, perhaps from having absorbed blood."If all four threadworms had their fill of blood, Grand Princess Lisandra would have been beyond saving," Sebastian said calmly.He placed the incense burner aside, and everyone instinctively took a step back. They had never seen anything so horrifying, and couldn't help but feel a chill run through them.Carissa and Violet exchanged a look, both feeling a wave of disgust, their skin crawling.Penny was so frightened, she could hardly stand. She braced herself against the table, her lips trembling and her eyes wide with disbelief.Sebastian remained calm. "Her Highness will wake soon. Mr. Glover, check on her and see if you can detect any stagnation in her blood now."Leroy nudged the stunned Javier. "Go."It took a moment for Javier to snap out of his daze. He moved to the bed, checking on Lisandra for a

The poison worms hadn't been taken away. They remained in the incense burner, drawn to the bloodied scent of the medicine. They would stay there and feed off the aroma until they died. However, the poisonous worms that had been expelled wouldn't live much longer either."They're in the incense burner," Sebastian replied. "You can take it to Her Highness."Though small, the poisonous worms were disturbing. Javier hesitated before reaching out, his hand hovering in the air.He finally asked, "Can these worms… enter the human body again?"Seeing his reluctance, Winona stepped forward. She lifted the incense burner, carefully removed the lid, and presented it to Lisandra.At the sight of the worms, Lisandra's stomach turned. She fought the urge to vomit as a wave of nausea surged through her. The sight alone was enough to make her feel faint. Her body flushed with heat and her blood surged with anger. She closed her eyes, forcing herself to regain composure. The effort took much longe

The slap not only struck Penny's face, but also released the pent-up frustration and anger she had buried deep within.Penny clutched her cheek, her voice thick with sorrow as she cried, "Your Highness, have you forgotten how terribly Prince Arthur died? It will forever be a wound in the hearts of the people of Westhaven! How can we not avenge him? How can we not? He was your brother! How can you be so heartless and disregard the bond between siblings?"Lisandra clenched her fist, her palm wet with sweat. The light cast a ghostly pallor on her face, and her eyes were filled with a deep, dull despair."So, do you all think that the reason I don't want to go to war is because I don't want to avenge him?"She took a deep breath, her anger flickering in her eyes. Though still weak, she pointed an accusing finger at Penny."Penny, others may think that, but I have made my intentions clear to you every step of the way. You know exactly what I am thinking and what I am considering. You s
