Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 279

Chapter 279

Lily brought in a bowl of royal jelly soup that Charlotte was fond of, and said with a smile, “Madam Charlotte, you’re in for a treat! It’s been quite a while since we prepared this soup, and you happen to be here just as we made it today.”

Lily’s comment wasn’t entirely truthful. In fact, they had been making royal jelly soup every day to help with Ryan’s throat as part of his treatment. The Klein family had sent some, the steward of the Hell Monarch Estate had contributed a few jars, and Frederick had also bought some.

Charlotte looked at Lily with a smile.

“I’m quite a food enthusiast, and couldn’t resist coming when I heard there was something delicious. I’ve been coughing lately, and I thought a bowl of royal jelly soup would cure it. I’m sure I’ll stop coughing tonight.”

Carissa asked in concern, “You’re still coughing? The last time you came to see Ryan, I noticed you coughing too.”

“With the constant gloom and arguments all day, it’s no wonder I can’t get better,” Charlotte said, stirring the soup in her bowl with a spoon, her face showing both worry and disgust.

“Barrett either doesn’t come home, or when he does, Aurora argues with him and even gets physical. Barrett really can endure he doesn’t retaliate or respond to her insults. Aurora behaves like a shrew, and he just lets her be.”

Charlotte suddenly looked up at Carissa, and added, “If Aurora comes to find you, you mustn’t see her. She’s completely lost her mind.”

Carissa shook her head. “Why would she come to find me? That’s impossible.”

“Impossible? During their arguments, she said she would come to see you.”

“Why would she want to see me?” Carissa was bewildered. “I’m no longer involved with them.”

“Who knows what she’s thinking? She must have insects crawling around in her head,” Charlotte said with a cough.
