Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 221

Chapter 221

Watching Bleanor’s face shift from green to red, and then from red to white, Helen felt a deep sense of satisfaction.

At last, she was seeing Eleanor get a taste of defeat

Helen didn’t fully understand why this matter couldn’t be used to accuse Carissa of any crime–after all, an offense of disrespect was no small matter. Regardless, seeing how Eleanor suddenly fell silent, it was clear that no punishment for Carissa would be forthcoming.

To truly understand the subtle reasons behind this, Helen would need to consult her sister. But for now, she was content to enjoy the spectacle of Eleanor’s irate,

multicolored face.

In the end, Eleanor stormed off in anger, having realized during this visit to the palace that Carissa’s audacity was backed not only by Rafael, but also by Victoria and Salvador.

No wonder she had been so brazen!

After Eleanor left, Salvador sighed and rubbed his temples. “It seems that the matter of the miniature chastity belt sculpture is indeed real. Aunt Eleanor has truly gone too far.”

Victoria’s face was clouded with anger. “I even wanted to slap her myself. How arrogant and ignorant! She’s so cruel and selfish–she’s completely disgraced the royal family!”

“Melanie must have been furious at the time,” Salvador said.

Victoria’s eyes reddened. “Yes, but she never complained to me about her

grievances. I could have interceded on her behalf.”

“Mother, don’t be too distressed. She’s gone now. We can only hope she finds peace, “Salvador said, his expression darkening as he thought about how Aurora had led to the Duke of Northwatch’s family’s downfall.

With the truth remaining hidden, how could Melanie ever find peace?

Yet how could the truth ever be revealed? It would remain muddled, with Westhaven remaining silent and the people of Starhaven being unaware.

Derek was right–the Duke of Northwatch’s family had indeed suffered greatly.
