That night, Barrett did not leave Grace Mansion. For several nights in a row, he stayed at Viola's place.
Aurora began decorating her courtyard, using her own money since the family's public funds were unavailable to her.
She chose the sturdiest wood for the doors and windows. Ironwood was hard to come by, and she asked the lumber merchants to find it, promising to pay a high price if they succeeded.
She renamed the courtyard "Blessed Haven".
Having left the army and without any battle armor, she secretly commissioned a protective heart shield. She wore it day and night to guard against any potential assassins.
As for Barrett and Viola's affection towards each other, she couldn't care less. She held no respect for a man who had changed his heart.
She had once said she wouldn't be caught up in domestic squabbles, and she would never become the kind of person she most despised.
Moreover, did Barrett truly have feelings for Viola? She didn't believe it—not even a little.
Barrett's gaze towards Viola was devoid of love. He wasn't even good at hiding it, and it was easy for others to see. Only Viola seemed oblivious.
Maybe Viola wasn't actually foolish, but she had no other choice at this point. Even if it was false affection, it was better than the cold indifference she had endured.
Aurora had no desire to interfere with their matters. She had everything she needed in the household—food and clothes for every season.
Since she didn't have any other options for her future right now, she could afford to wait.
She wanted to investigate who was targeting her. Deep down, she knew it was certainly not Carissa. However, blaming Carissa would also put a stop to Barrett's feelings for her.
Ultimately, Aurora was still troubled by it all.
Despite this, she had no intention of meddling in the apparent romance between Barrett and Viola. After all, Barrett still needed the support of the Prince family to protect the Warren family.
