Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 484

Violet glanced at Carissa, who gave her a slight nod.

Violet then coldly laughed and said, "You're claiming to be a 'pure courtesan'? Maybe you can fool someone as brainless as Samuel, but do you really think you can fool us?"

Her words instantly enraged Samuel, who snapped, "How dare you slander her?"

Violet sneered. "Slander her? I wouldn't dare. Ruby, shouldn't you tell everyone your real name? What was it again? I heard your esteemed father gave you a rather lovely name—Celeste Kingsley, wasn't it? But Grand Princess Eleanor didn't call you that, did she? She called you something else, right? Cece, wasn't it?"

Ruby's face turned deathly pale, but only for a moment.

Soon, her eyes filled with tears, and she choked out, "W-What are you talking about?"

The faces of those from the Earl of Gracehold's family also changed drastically. They stared at Ruby's elegant and beautiful face in disbelief.

Could she really be Eleanor's daughter?

Surely, she wasn't her biological child. Eleanor had only given birth to Jessica. However, it was rumored that the grand princess had taken in several concubines for her prince consort, though none of them had ever appeared in public. Those concubines must have had children, but those children had never been seen either.

But this? It was simply too absurd.

Even if Ruby wasn't Eleanor's biological daughter, she would still have to call the grand princess her rightful mother. How could Eleanor allow her own daughter, even an illegitimate one, to end up in a brothel?

Violet snorted. "There's no point in denying it. I've thoroughly investigated everything. Do you really think that little secret of yours could be hidden from our princess consort?"

"No, I'm not. I'm not!" Ruby wept as she clung to Samuel's sleeve. "If I were Grand Princess Eleanor's daughter, how could I have ended up in such a low place like a brothel?"
