However, Samuel had been taken to the Supreme Court. It would be no easy feat to get him out.
If word of Dorothy's hunger strike were to spread, it would make the Earl of Gracehold's family seem like they were neglecting her. So, even though they knew the chances were slim, they still pulled strings and asked people to plead with the king on their behalf.
Noah had some connections of his own. They told him that if Leona forgave Samuel and was willing to let him off, there was a possibility of him being released.
However, who would dare approach Leona at this point? They weren't shameless enough to do so, nor did they dare to, especially since Carissa was standing guard over her.
In the end, Noah went to Harvey, who had spoken out in Samuel's defense when he was arrested. It was clear that he didn't want Leona and Samuel to get divorced, so Noah could only seek out Harvey in this situation.
Harvey agreed to help, but whether he would actually go to the Supreme Court was a different matter altogether. It wasn't like the Earl of Gracehold's family knew either.
Meanwhile, Heather was eager to see Leona. Given that a royal edict had already been issued, the divorce was imminent and there was no room for negotiation. So, Heather planned on bringing her daughter back home.
Just as she was about to set off, she noticed Carissa arriving with Frederick and Lily, bringing a carriage full of items. They had come to return the gifts Heather had given Melanie over the years. It was an entire carriage filled with both ordinary and precious items. These gifts bore witness to their long-standing relationship as sisters.
According to what Frederick and Lily remembered, the gifts Melanie had given Heather included gold, silver, common items, and many valuable medicinal herbs. Most of the herbs had been provided by Sebastian to the Duke of Northwatch's family back then. They were likely meant for treating injuries, especially since Carissa's father and brothers had been on the battlefield, so it was wise to have extra supplies.
Apart from the medicinal herbs, there were also supplements and emergency remedies, including several bottles of Snowdrop Pills and Energy Pills, which were meant to strengthen the heart and restore energy.
Lily mentioned that Heather had personally asked Melanie for the pills and had taken multiple bottles. The pills could be stored for a long time, but Heather hadn't offered any to be used when Leona was in a dire situation.
