Her Graceful War Song (Carissa Sinclair) novel Chapter 691

Daniel's home was not far from the Sinclair family's main residence, Sinclair Estate. It was a house with two entrances, two exits, and a patio.

Usually, Daniel's wife, Thalia, would accompany her mother-in-law, Hilda, after dinner. The two women would do embroidery together, with Thalia usually making clothes for her unborn child or two sons. But tonight, not only did Thalia not show up at all, the sound of the children playing couldn't be heard either.

Finding it odd, Hilda sent her maid, Doris, to check on them. When she arrived at Thalia's quarters and inquired, Thalia's maid, Fern, looked surprised.

"Isn't Madam Thalia doing embroidery with Madam Hilda? She left an hour ago with the two boys," said Fern.

"No, Madam Hilda hasn't seen Madam Thalia. That's why she sent me to ask," replied Doris, also surprised.

"How can that be? Madam Thalia had dinner and took her pregnancy medicine, then left."

"Did she say she was heading to Madam Hilda's place?"

"Yes, she did. Pansy went with her. Before leaving, Madam Thalia told me to tidy up the porch so I didn't follow them."

"We haven't seen her. She couldn't have gone visiting elsewhere, right? Hurry and go to Sinclair Estate and ask them. I'll check with Madam Emily. She mentioned earlier today that the boys were going over to her place to play."

Emily was Solomon's wife, and their home was next to Daniel's. Currently, Solomon was busy helping Theodore handle matters regarding their family's younger members, earning the respect of the rest of the family. When Carissa left the Warren family, it was Solomon who had arranged for the younger members of the family to help her move her dowry from Valor Estate.

Doris and Fern hurried out to inquire. After checking both places, they returned with the same information—no one had seen Thalia or her two boys.

Upon hearing this, Solomon felt a sense of unease. Thalia had spent most of her time in Serenvale and rarely returned to the capital. And given that she was pregnant, she seldom ventured out. She only visited Sinclair Estate or Solomon's home. It was unlikely she would wander around.

It was unusual for her to go out during the day, let alone at night.

Frederick had been the steward for the Duke of Northwatch's family for a long time, so he had some connections with the Capital Guard and the garrison unit. After making arrangements at those two places, he headed to Hell Monarch Estate.

Carissa was still awake when she heard Frederick had arrived, so she hurriedly sent someone to invite him in.

Upon hearing that Daniel's wife and children were missing, Carissa recalled that uncle of hers. He had always stayed in Serenvale, but had returned when her family was wiped out. When Carissa saw Daniel back then, she had been taken aback by how much he resembled her dad.

However, she had been overwhelmed with grief then. Her family's funeral was a task shared between them and the Klein family. By the time the mourning period ended, Daniel had already returned to Serenvale, and Carissa hadn't even had the chance to thank him.

Rafael immediately issued an order, "Travis, mobilize all the household guards to search."

Jacob strode in and shook his head. "There's no need to send so many people out. Just a few will do. Frederick, you should mobilize everyone from Northwatch Estate to search."
