Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 441

"Mom!" Serena's eyes were brimming with excitement. "I said Lady Jessica will take me there. She said that at the birthday banquet, she'll help me become one of the Hell Monarch's concubines."

Rebecca's eyes, which had been as dead as a tomb, suddenly sparkled with life.

She struggled to sit up and asked, "Are you serious?"

"Of course. Lady Jessica told me in person, and Grand Princess Eleanor was there too."

Rebecca's heart leaped with excitement, as though her blood was rushing freely again, and her breathing quickened.

"If this works out, Grand Princess Eleanor and Lady Jessica will be our great benefactors." Rebecca paused, frowning. "Why would they help you like this? Are they plotting something? Don't be too happy just yet. Let me think about it."

Serena stomped her foot in frustration. "Mom, no matter what their intentions are, all that matters is that I can marry into the royal family. Even if I have to be a concubine beneath Carissa, I don't care. I'm younger than her, and she's just a once-divorced woman who remarried. How can she be better than me?"

She sat down again. "Besides, Grand Princess Eleanor has always liked matchmaking. Perhaps she's dissatisfied with Carissa and wants to send me to annoy her. Even if Grand Princess Eleanor has some scheme, I'll do my best to help her as long as I can become the Hell Monarch's concubine. After all, I'll just be a concubine. It's not like I can achieve much."

Rebecca thought her daughter's words made sense. However, she still remembered the events at Eleanor's birthday banquet and had a lingering feeling that things were not so simple.

"Mom, Barrett has now become a ninth-rank official. Dad and Benjamin have no hope of promotion, and Aurora has always been against you. Viola is backed by the Earl of Silverstone's family, but aside from offering some dowry to support our family, she doesn't have much to offer us."

Rebecca thought about it. Serena was right.

Could they rely on Bryan? He couldn't even pass the first level of the national examination.

At this rate, how could they restore the glory of the Warren family?

Rebecca was wary of Eleanor and Jessica's intentions, but if Serena could become the Hell Monarch's concubine, the benefits would outweigh any potential costs. At least Serena's position would be secured. That was a priority.

"Have you asked them what the plan is?" Rebecca asked with a sigh.

Serena relayed everything Jessica had told her. After listening, Rebecca pondered for a while. Although the plan seemed quite ordinary, it was indeed effective.
