Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 204

This statement left everyone in shock. Even the fact that Rebecca was rebuked by Sebastian was quickly forgotten.

Everyone turned to look at Helen. What did she mean? Did the Hell Monarch want to marry Carissa? A royal prince wanted to marry a woman who had been divorced?

It wasn't just the noble ladies who were surprised—even Eleanor was taken aback. She glanced at Helen, then at Carissa, her brows furrowing.

Carissa also looked at Helen with a calm expression.

This matter hadn't been settled yet, and no formal proposal had been made. Why did Helen announce it?

Besides, didn't Helen despise her? No one had asked, and no rumors had spread. Yet here Helen was, announcing it herself.

Had Helen accepted her? But the acceptance was so sudden, leaving people at a loss.

Moreover, even if it was to be announced, this wasn't the right moment. Carissa had been criticized for so long, and it was rare for Sebastian to explain in front of the noblewomen why he didn't treat Rebecca.

Now, Helen had just rescued Rebecca.

This future mother-in-law was really out of touch!

Eleanor suddenly smiled—a sarcastic grin on her heavily powdered face. "Oh? Rafael wants to marry Carissa? With so many noble ladies in the capital, he fancies a divorced woman?"

Helen instantly regretted her words. She was angry with Carissa, and hadn't accepted her yet. She was against their marriage, so how could she be the one to announce it?

She really couldn't control her big mouth, and felt like slapping herself!

Rebecca was so shocked, her jaw nearly dropped. She couldn't believe that the discarded woman from her family could marry into the royal family. Carissa was going to marry the prince who reclaimed the Southern Frontier and become a powerful princess?!

Carissa wouldn't be just a leisurely princess consort without a position like Avis or Heather!

Many noble daughters on the scene had their hearts broken. Rafael wanted to marry Carissa? How could Carissa deserve this? Even if she had military merits, she was still a once-married woman.
