Now that Viola was pregnant, her thoughts were often clouded, and she was overly sensitive. When she heard about Barrett's promotion, she felt joy. But upon learning that Carissa was his superior, tears filled her eyes.
She leaned against Barrett's arm, choking on her words.
"I'm not jealous of her, but how can she possibly hold power over you? You discovered the evidence of Grand Princess Eleanor's treachery. If it weren't for you, the grand princess' ambitions might still be hidden from everyone.
"I just can't accept it! Why are you always overshadowed by her? When it comes to contributions and achievements, haven't you surpassed her? How could the king allow a woman to be the commander? To let a woman oversee the Mystic Army, along with the Crown Guard and the Royal Guard—it's absurd! The men have lost all their dignity!"
Barrett listened to her choked voice and felt a twinge of irritation in his heart. He remembered the assassin who had faced him that night—he knew exactly who that person was.
Was this credit truly his? No, it was handed to him by someone else.
Barrett suspected that the person had already known about Eleanor's plot and planned to expose her scheme during the Emberfest Festival. Barrett just happened to be in the right place at the right time. He had chased down the assassin in the western courtyard and stumbled upon those weapons in the dungeon.
He didn't understand why the Hell Monarch himself didn't expose Eleanor, but instead had the Capital Guard and the Garrison Unit do it.
It was such a significant achievement!
Why give the credit to the Capital Guard and the Garrison Unit?
Perhaps because he was the Hell Monarch, well-known for his military prowess, and simply didn't care about such accolades.
A shadow crossed Barrett's eyes. In the end, it all came down to one's origins.
What Rafael didn't want was something Barrett could never earn, even if he gave everything he had.

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....
