Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 609

Rafael and Carissa both stood up and rushed outside, only to find Viola with her hair in disarray, gripping a dagger tightly against her own neck. She pressed it down hard enough that blood was already seeping from the cut.

Her maid trailed behind her, pale as a ghost. Poppy had tried to stop Viola, but it had been in vain. Viola had insisted on going to Hell Monarch Estate, even stopping along the way to buy the dagger.

When Viola spotted Carissa, her eyes were bloodshot with rage.

"Carissa, what grudge do we have? Why are you trying to ruin me like this?" Viola screamed.

Carissa remained calm and instructed Luke, "Send someone to Silverstone Estate and Valor Estate. Have them come take Mrs. Warren home."

Luke nodded, and hurried off.

Carissa turned to Rafael. "You should go back inside. I'll handle this."

Rafael glanced at Viola, and saw how unstable she looked with the dagger still in hand.

"Be careful not to hurt yourself by accident," he warned before heading back.

As he walked, Yuvan emerged from the estate. Rafael extended his arm to block him. "Uncle Yuvan, let's continue our chat. Where were we?"

Yuvan put on an air of authority, and asked loudly, "What's going on here? Who dares to barge into Hell Monarch Estate so recklessly? Whoever it is needs to be properly dealt with! We can't have just anyone storming into a royal residence!"

Fiona came out after Yuvan, and Rafael didn't bother stopping her. Playing along with Yuvan's indignation, she chimed in, "Your Highness, isn't that the third daughter of the Earl of Silverstone's family? What's going on here?"

Viola had come looking for Carissa, and she wasn't expecting Yuvan to be present as well. Fiona's words seemed to snap her out of her crazed state a little. Still, her cold gaze remained fixed on Carissa.

"Let's find somewhere private to talk. If not, I'll die here with my child in Hell Monarch Estate. You've driven me to the edge, so it doesn't matter where I die!"

Fiona stood at the edge of the veranda with a falsely sympathetic smile, and added, "If you have grievances, why not share them, Mrs. Warren? Prince Yuvan is here, and he'll make sure justice is served."

Carissa shouted, "Violet, take Lady Fiona for a walk in the garden!"

Noticing Yuvan's sour expression, Molly attempted to smooth things over.

"Living a carefree life is its own blessing," she said lightly.

However, Helen didn't miss a beat. She shot Molly a sharp look, and said bluntly, "You're still so young. How did you end up marrying this old man?"

Molly's face flushed with embarrassment. "Your Highness, the prince is in his prime. How can you call him old?"

Outside, Carissa dismissed the servants and turned to Viola. "Let's go to the side hall."

After saying that, Carissa turned around and walked ahead. She was genuinely baffled.

What had prompted Viola to come here in such a rage? And what was this nonsense about killing herself, and two lives would be lost?
