Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 623

Molly sent a notice to Silverstone Estate, stating that she would be visiting the next day. Upon recalling Carissa's words, Zoey's expression turned grave.

After a moment of thought, she instructed Jane, "Prepare gifts. I need to make a trip to Hell Monarch Estate."

"Madam Zoey, shouldn't we send a formal invitation first?" Jane asked. "Going like this might come off as a bit rude."

"No need for that. When I took Viola back with me, I mentioned to the princess consort that I would come to apologize in person. So, this visit wouldn't be seen as disrespectful."

With visitors from Yuvan's family arriving tomorrow, there was no time to wait for an invitation to arrange a meeting.

At Hell Monarch Estate, Carissa noticed Zoey's swollen face, the marks of fingers still clear on her skin.

"Are you alright?" Carissa asked.

Zoey smiled bitterly. "I'm fine. The injury is self-inflicted. No one at Silverstone Estate would dare to touch me."

Carissa didn't want to pry into her family affairs, but felt a pang of admiration as she observed Zoey's exhausted yet dignified demeanor. A stable and composed woman to manage the household was vital for a noble family.

"Actually, you don't need to apologize," Carissa said. "It's not a big deal. I didn't think much of it, and it really shouldn't be you doing the apologizing."

After pondering this, Zoey decided to be straightforward. "Your Grace, my apology is just an excuse. I actually have something I want to ask you."

Carissa lifted her cup and took a slow sip, her gaze drifting lightly over Zoey's face. "Go ahead and ask."

Carissa already knew what Zoey wanted to inquire about—someone from Yuvan's family must have sent a notice to visit Silverstone Estate.

Every move Yuvan made upon his return to the capital was under Rafael's watchful eye, with Travis himself leading the surveillance. Such attention was fitting for someone of Yuvan's status.
