Carissa didn't find Florence's words ridiculous. Instead, she felt a twinge of sadness. Regardless of the old woman's current thoughts, it was clear she had once held those beliefs deeply.
Carissa chose not to counter Florence's claims. From the way she secretly spared Daniel and his family from Eleanor's wrath, it was evident her mindset had changed. The things she said now weren't meant to persuade anyone else—Florence was merely trying to convince herself.
"Alright, since everything was done by you and Kurt and has nothing to do with Grand Princess Eleanor, why don't you tell me how many women you've brought into Harmony Palace over the years, how many have died, and how many baby boys were killed?" Carissa asked.
Florence fell silent, her expression growing increasingly grim.
"They're already dead. You owe them some justice and should let the families of the abducted women know they don't have to search anymore. Besides, Grand Princess Eleanor has committed the heinous crime of treason and won't escape death. By revealing the identities of those women, you would be accumulating some merit on her behalf," Carissa pressed.
Slowly, Florence lifted her gaze to meet Carissa's. Her lips trembled violently—perhaps from hunger or perhaps from the weight of that accusation of treason toward Eleanor.
Carissa didn't push further. Instead, she fell silent and waited.
After a long pause, Florence's hoarse voice finally broke the stillness, asking, "Could you bring me a cup of water?"
There was a jug of water on the table that had been prepared for Carissa. She hadn't touched it, so she poured a cup and pushed it toward Florence.
"Here."

I wish there were more chapters uploaded daily. Atleast 10 per day....

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....
