Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 208
Just then, the waiter brought out the food to be served, and Carissa fell silent. She watched as each dish was laid out before them.
Among them was her favorite—spicy stuffed peppers. Their vibrant red and green hues looked utterly appetizing.
There was a variety of dishes, both spicy and mild options, and the fragrant aroma soon filled the room.
Carissa was ravenous. She picked up her utensils, and addressed Rafael's earlier question.
"When we left, Frederick mentioned that over the years, Lord Henry had taken many concubines. Most of them died after giving birth. I thought, if a concubine dies, it could be due to an accident or childbirth complications, but for so many to die—it's hard not to be suspicious."
As she spoke, she picked up a stuffed pepper and placed it on her plate. She also served some to Rafael. "Try some of this. It's the star of all the dishes."
Then, she spooned a small amount of red chili and green chili onto his plate.
"Okay." Rafael looked at the bright red chili with a serious expression, not hurrying to eat. "Your suspicion is correct. Indeed, Henry's concubines were all cruelly mistreated and died terrible deaths."
Carissa asked, "I didn't see any concubines around Grand Princess Eleanor today. Were all killed? And the children born of those concubines are missing too?"
"Not exactly. Those who knew how to behave might have survived. After giving birth, they would offer their children to her and then serve as footmaids by her side, which allowed them to stay alive. As for the children…"
He finally took a bite of the pepper. After chewing briefly, he quickly swallowed. His eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and he grabbed his cup to drink, coughing as he said, "It's too spicy…!"
As he coughed, he pulled out a handkerchief to cover his mouth. The handkerchief was overly conspicuous, and Carissa turned her face away, unable to look.
What kind of embroidery was that? It was neither a bird nor a bee, and it was all wrinkled!
Did he even remember who gave him this handkerchief?

I’ve read several novels, but this is the best of the best....
I hope that Rafael will not fall for Carmen. I don’t think I can keep reading if he does. Carissa deserves to have a pure and strong love with Rafael that world stand the test of time and all trials and tribulations....
