Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 282

Carissa had stayed up late, so she was groggy and barely coherent when Lulu came to report early in the morning.

Aurora was outside the estate, demanding to see Carissa. The noise was that Lulu had no choice but to wake her mistress. so disruptive

As Carissa sat up in bed, blinking away sleep, she was stunned to realize that Aurora had actually come. She focused her inner force on listening more closely and confirmed that the commotion outside was indeed Aurora’s voice, accompanied by thunderous banging on the door.

If this continued, it would disturb Ryan. Although he had improved significantly, loud and aggressive noises still frightened him.

Carissa’s first instinct was to grab her Rose Spear and drive Aurora away. However, with Northwatch Estate surrounded by influential families, she couldn’t afford to embarrass herself by personally handling such a situation. It was beneath her status to engage directly with Aurora.

However, Carissa’s curiosity was piqued. She wondered what Aurora could possibly t at this point.

“Show her to the side hall in the outer courtyard. I’ll change and join her shortly,” Carissa said as she got up.

Though clearly displeased at the disturbance, Lulu understood the urgency. Northwatch Estate had very few capable guards, and while they might manage to handle ordinary intruders, Aurora was skilled in martial arts. It would be even more of a disgrace if the guards were defeated.

“Alright, I’ll go fetch her now,” Lulu replied, turning to leave.

She instructed Pearl to assist Carissa with getting dressed as she muttered, “This is such bad luck.”

Carissa donned a slightly worn everyday outfit, layering it with a fur cloak.

It was chilly today, and snow seemed imminent. Perhaps it was for the best–Ryan could enjoy a snowball fight with the next snowfall. The sky was overcast, and the wind was biting. However, it was nothing compared to the Southern Frontier, where the wind seemed to pierce straight through one’s bones.

In the side hall of the outer courtyard, Carissa finally saw Aurora.

Choosing not to waste time with pleasantries, Carissa sat down and asked directly, “Why are you here?” “Barrett is about to marry the discarded daughter of the Earl of Silverstone’s family. Do you know about this?” Aurora questioned in a chilling, sinister tone.

“What does that have to do with me?” Carissa replied with a hint of indifference. “Whether I know or not, it’s none of my concern.”

Carissa’s eyes grew cold with annoyance. “You came here to ask me this? What answer do you want from me?”
