Such a large-scale search naturally caught Helen's attention. She had gone to bed early and was fast asleep when the commotion outside woke her. Gillian, who was sleeping in the same room, was asked to check what was happening.
When Helen heard that a servant had stolen Violet's Mystic Pearl earrings, her anger flared.
"Our household provides a much better life than other estates. The person who stole the earrings doesn't appreciate that. If I catch them, I'll have their arms broken!" Helen exclaimed.
"Lady Carissa has arrived," someone announced from outside.
"Why is she here instead of handling things outside? I'm already in bed," said Helen, reluctant to leave her warm bed amidst the cold night air.
"Mother." Carissa strode in confidently, alone.
She knew that the Mystic Pearl earrings would be found in Janice's quarters. Since Janice originally served under Helen, she should decide how to deal with her once the earrings were found.
Helen's displeasure evaporated the moment she saw Carissa, and a warm, inviting smile pulled at her lips. "What brings you here? It's a chilly night, and you didn't even put on extra layers. Come, have a seat."
Carissa nodded respectfully. She was aware her mother-in-law preferred to stay in bed, so she settled on the edge of it.
"I'm sorry to have disturbed you so late, Mother. It's my fault for not managing the household more strictly."
"Oh, it's not a big deal. It's just that it's quite the fuss at this hour. Why not search tomorrow instead?" Helen asked as she yawned.
"If we wait until tomorrow, the thief could easily dispose of the earrings. They're worth quite a bit of money," Gillian explained.
Helen hummed in acknowledgment, glancing calmly at Gillian as if asking the latter to continue showing off how presumptuous she was.
"Make some coffee," Carissa instructed. "It's late, and we can't hold out without a cup. I see your eyelids are about to close, Mother."
Helen waved her hand dismissively. "No coffee for me. If I drink it at this hour, I won't be able to sleep tonight."

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....
