Chapter 223 Drawing Everyone’s Attention

Laila’s POV:

Before I could say anything, Morgana spoke first.

“I don’t like roses anyway. I like snowy mountains.”

After she said that, I saw Estelle nearly roll her eyes. If she had not been worried about maintaining her image, she probably would have done it openly.

I smiled quietly and led them forward.

“A little further ahead, there are some paintings of roses. If Your Highness likes them, I can also decide to give one to you.”

The group continued walking, and soon we arrived in front of two rose paintings.

One of them depicted a fortress at the Lovanfall Battlefield. Beneath the castle gates stood a soldier guarding the entrance, upright and unmoving. The iron armor he wore was already rusted, and there even seemed to be traces of dried blood.

But his gaze was firm and determined. In the bitter winter cold, the snow beneath his feet had already reached his calves. His face was darkened by wind and frost, his lips cracked, and his hair slightly disheveled. The fierce wind seemed to have blown several strands loose around his temples.

His hands were rough and cracked, and the creases beneath his fingernails were filled with dark dirt.

The scenery within the painting and the person within it, looked so vivid that it felt as if the man were standing right in front of us.

For a moment, the noble ladies and young women seemed to see the soldiers at Lovanfall Battlefield with their own eyes. They saw the hardships they endured and the suffering they faced. Yet despite the wind and snow, they still stood firm at the city gates, protecting the prosperity and peace inside the kingdom.

Margaret, the elder Luna of Blackrock Pack, whose ancestors had once been military officers, felt the deepest emotions when she saw this painting. She sighed and said, “The peace our kingdom enjoys today was bought with their blood and sacrifice. Soldiers risk their lives on the battlefield, and the generals are no different. I believe the danger and hardship of the battle at Vagen were far greater than we can imagine. Prince Vance and General Conlay truly served the kingdom with loyalty and courage.”

She deliberately said “General Conlay” instead of “Laila.” She wanted everyone to remember that Laila was not only a noblewoman of Silvermoon Pack but also a female general who had fought on the battlefield.

For a moment, the way everyone looked at me changed. There was a hint of admiration in their eyes.

Only Estelle let out a cold laugh. “Since ancient times, great wealth has always come with great danger. Laila faced danger, yes, but she also gained enormous wealth because of it.”

Margaret did not hold back at all as she shot back. “Enormous wealth? What enormous wealth? If that enormous wealth means losing your entire family, would you take it if it were offered to you?”

Then she continued sharply. “Anyone who said something like that would be disrespectful to the soldiers. But hearing it from Estelle is even worse. After all, the one enjoying enormous wealth is a princess like you. How would someone like you understand the dangers of the battlefield?”

Estelle was left speechless. She froze in anger for a moment before finally sneering. “You’re old. I won’t argue with you.”

It seemed she did not want to stay any longer. She turned and said, “Jenna, let’s go. If we stay here any longer, who knows what else we’ll be accused of? I only spoke the truth.”

“Yes, Mom.”

Jenna immediately followed Estelle out.

Some people who were close to Estelle hesitated for a moment, then left with them as well.

I did not stop them. In fact, I was happier once they were gone.

Morgana also seemed to relax.

Without Estelle and Jenna around, the rest of the viewing became very pleasant.

Soon, we reached the innermost section.

The Alpha King and Beta Caleb were there, along with several others.

They were chatting with Shane.

“I wonder how long Ms. Green stayed in the Lovanfall region. Most of these paintings depict civilians, soldiers, buildings, and everyday life. Like this one here,” Beta Caleb said while

“It shows two women arguing. Their clothes are simple but clean. They are carrying wooden buckets to fetch water from a well. Every village along the border now has wells. The people may not live luxurious lives, but they can at least get by. Are these scenes real, or are they something you wish to see?”
