Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178 

Gillian sent people out to investigate, and quickly learned about the commotion Rebecca had caused at Northwatch Estate with her 

eldest son and daughter–in–law. 

The incident had caused quite a stir, and it was easy to gather information. The general sentiment among the onlookers was that the Warren family had been excessively oppressive. 

Gillian had this information confirmed and then reported it to Helen, who frowned at the news. 

“If Carissa hadn’t pushed the matter to an extreme, would the 

Warrens have gone to such lengths to cause a scene? Did Sebastian really refuse to treat her?” 

“It’s true,” Gillian confirmed. “The physician’s office also issued a statement and clarified that it was due to Madam Warren’s lack of virtue that they refused to treat her.” 

Helen sneered. “Since when do physicians decide whether to treat a patient based on their character? As an outsider, how could he know the internal matters of the Warren family? Clearly, Carissa must have told him she was being mistreated by her in–laws. Sebastian, taking her side, refused to treat the old lady.” 

“Perhaps it’s because upon returning from Victory Pass, General Warren sought to marry General Yates as a secondary wife with his military achievements, and Madam Warren supported this. 

arrangement. That may have displeased Sebastian, given his good relations with the Sinclair family,” Gillian added. 

Helen’s face was filled with disdain. “Regardless of the reasons, one should never cut off another’s means of survival. If the Warren family’s matriarch wasn’t pushed into a desperate situation, she wouldn’t have caused such a scene at Northwatch Estate. Aren’t

their family affairs already embarrassing enough without airing it to the public?” 

Having been coddled since childhood and sheltered in the palace by Victoria, Helen had never been involved in palace conspiracies. Her simple–mindedness led her to believe that if someone caused 

trouble, it must be the troublemaker’s fault–after all, why else would someone bring their troubles to light? 

Naturally, Helen had already decided that Carissa was always 

wrong, and she disliked her intensely. She was so averse to her that. she told Gillian, “Even if he wanted to marry a dog, I would think it a better choice than Carissa!” 

Gillian also felt that Carissa was unworthy of Rafael, but now wasn’t the time to stoke the flames. She could only say, “You could summon her to the palace tomorrow, Your Highness. Perhaps she will reconsider if she knows the difficulties she faces.” 

When someone from Evergreen Palace came with a letter for Carissa to come to the palace the next day, Frederick and the two senior maids were extremely anxious. 

Everyone knew Helen was a difficult person to deal with. She had high standards, and rarely held anyone in high regard. They event heard that she had suppressed the more senior concubine, Dakota, for many years. 

Frederick suggested, “My lady, perhaps you should ask Prince 

Rafael to accompany you to the palace. At least with him there, Lady Helen won’t make things too difficult.” 

Carissa smiled. “There’s no need for that. Since Lady Helen still lives in the palace, she won’t overstep her bounds. At most, she’ll say a few harsh words. We’ve heard harsh words before. It’s nothing we 

can’t handle.”
