Carissa pretended to discuss the matter quietly with Rafael. They spoke in hushed tones, inaudible to others. As the maid and the guard couldn't hear anything despite straining to listen, their anxiety was palpable.
After a considerable pause, Rafael finally nodded.
"Alright then, we'll head to the capital together," said Carissa.
The maid sighed in relief. "Thank you, Lady Sinclair. You are truly a saint."
"What's your name?" Carissa asked.
The maid bowed. "My name is Greta."
Carissa turned to the guard. "And you?"
"My name is Dustin," the guard replied in a slightly gruff voice.
Though he was sturdy and appeared honest, a person's appearance didn't always reflect their true nature.
Carissa asked a few more questions but didn't get much more information. It was clear she wasn't expecting to learn anything significant from them.
At supper time, a pinch of Sebastian's colorless, tasteless powder rendered Dustin, Greta, and the driver unconscious. Once that was done, Carmen knelt before Carissa and Rafael. Violet sat on the other side, listening without objection.
Carmen looked up, her eyes filled with distress and urgency. "My mother, Grand Princess Eleanor, originally wanted me to seduce Prince Rafael and ruin your relationship. She hopes that you two will turn against each other. She believed that I would be suitable for this task because I have some skill in martial arts, and His Highness favors such women.
"However, I refused to do it. I knew that even if I did, she wouldn't release my real mom. My twin sister, Celeste, entered the Earl of Gracehold's family and completed her task, but she still had another mission. My mom is imprisoned in Harmony Palace's dungeon and isn't given proper food or clothing.

I wish there were more chapters uploaded daily. Atleast 10 per day....
When will the next chapter be uploaded? This story is so awesome!...
I’ve read several novels, but this is the best of the best....
I hope that Rafael will not fall for Carmen. I don’t think I can keep reading if he does. Carissa deserves to have a pure and strong love with Rafael that world stand the test of time and all trials and tribulations....
