Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 570

At this time, the Earl of Silverstone's family received a letter from Oliver.

The letter was addressed to Zoey, his wife. After reading it, she took the letter to find Evelyn, Caspian, and his wife.

Caspian Prince was Oliver's younger brother, and served as a junior official in the Ministry of Infrastructure. It was a comfortable position, but he had remained in this role for four years without any promotion.

His wife, Luna, was the daughter of a merchant, so she had married up. Viola never liked her much, and often complained about how Luna seemed to be all about money.

Evelyn's face changed upon reading the letter. "My son-in-law is still alive? And has achieved merit? That's…"

Zoey gently reminded her, "Mother, you can't call him your son-in-law anymore."

Evelyn sighed. "It was a slip of the tongue. Who would have expected him to still be alive?"

Caspian also read the letter, and said, "Mom, Zoey, this is good news. We should be happy. After all, the fact that he's alive is more important than anything else."

"That's right," Zoey said with a look of sympathy. "When Thomas died, our in-law... Oh, even I have often addressed her wrongly. Alice had fainted several times from the grief of losing her son. She now has to take medicine regularly, and her health has declined significantly. With Thomas' return, her joy might just restore her health."

Evelyn recalled how she had wept alongside Alice upon hearing of Thomas' death. Thomas was a man of steadfast integrity. Though Evelyn didn't wish to compare him to anyone else, he was indeed the kind of son-in-law every mother-in-law would cherish.

Now that Evelyn knew he was still alive, it was truly a reason to rejoice.

Zoey said, "I came to tell you about this because I know Viola will learn about it sooner or later. It might be better to have her return home soon to discuss this matter."

Zoey knew that her younger sister-in-law was not faring well. One of the maids who had accompanied her was someone who used to serve Zoey, so Zoey was well aware of the internal affairs of the Warren family. After a recent quarrel, Viola and Barrett's relationship had become strained, and their life together was far from satisfactory.

Zoey feared that upon learning of Thomas' survival, Viola might seek a divorce from Barrett and attempt to rekindle her relationship with Thomas.
