“He took everything! From now on, the family won’t even be able to afford my medicine!” yelled Rebecca. Barrett felt uneasy but could only comfort his mother, saying, “Don’t worry, Mom. Aurora and I will soon be needed at the Southern Frontier again. We’ll return with honor.” 

Rebecca sobbed hoarsely. “How could she be so heartless? Wouldn’t she still have been wife? Why couldn’t she tolerate sharing the position? She’s just an orphan girl, yet she thinks of herself as 

your rightful 

a noble lady?!” 1 

Barrett pursed his lips. Carissa was now the legitimate daughter of a duke, which meant she was naturally a noble lady. 

“She deserved having her entire family annihilated! She deserved it! She deserved it!” Rebecca raged. (1 

Barrett also found it strange 

that spies from Westhaven had wiped out the Sinclair family. Why would they kill those elderly people, women, and children? It made no sense and wasn’t something worth doing. 

But the Sinclair family’s matters were no longer his concern. He wouldn’t meddle anymore. When he first learned of the tragedy and wanted to investigate it for her, Carissa had declined the opportunity. 

She would regret this. 

Watching the Sinclair family’s valuable furniture being taken away, Rebecca’s heart ached. She looked at Amelia, who was standing on the veranda with a cold look. 

“Why aren’t you trying to stop them?!” Rebecca snapped, angry at her daughter–in–law’s indifference. 

“I wouldn’t do something so shameless,” Amelia calmly replied. 

“How dare you defy me too?!” 

. As Amelia looked at Rebecca, she recalled every little thing Carissa had done since joining the family a 

year ago. Seeing her mother–in–law’s current fierce and malicious demeanor, Amelia couldn’t help but shiver. 

“Defiance is good. Carissa was obedient, but what did that get her in the end? I hope when Aurora joins the family, she’ll be as respectful to you as Carissa was” 

“She definitely will!” Rebecca glared at Amelia. “Don’t you mention that wretch’s name! If she were truly respectful, she wouldn’t have cut off my medicine supply!” 

“I asked around. Carissa didn’t stop your medicine. Sebastian felt that the Warren family was ungrateful and unworthy, so he refused to come and treat you,” Amelia replied calmly. 

Serena, who had just come out of the house and overheard Amelia, furiously exclaimed, “Amelia, how dare you speak to Mom like that? You’re defending an outsider and criticizing Mom! If Benjamin hears of this, he’ll certainly divorce you.” 

Normally, Amelia would have rebuked Serena as the latter was younger than her. But having seen firsthand the misfortune of those in the Warren family, Amelia held her tongue. 

After all, the men of the Warren family w 

capable of divorcing their wives for no reason. Unlike Carissa, 

Amelia had only two paths if her husband divorced her either become a nun or hang herself.

“Alright, my mistake. I can’t afford to offend anyone!” Amelia said before turning and leaving. 

Barrett clearly saw through Amelia’s show of strength, noticing the fleeting panic in her eyes. He understood what that expression meant very well.
