Her Majestic Battle Cry 636
Chapter 636
Carissa stayed awake the entire tto watch over Leona, while Violet pulled up a chair to sit outside the room.
No one dared enter.
Abigail sent meals for them, but Carissa couldn't eat a thing. Violet managed a few bites, but the image of
Leona’s body contorted in pain haunted her and made it hard to swallow.
In the middle of the night, Leona woke up. She opened her eyes in a daze and called out for Carissa, who had
been holding her hand the whole time. When she heard Leona’s voice, she squeezed her hand tightly.
“I'm here. It's okay.”
Ivy took the chance to feed the duchess smedicine. Leona took it obediently, but her eyelids grew heavy
after a while and she drifted back to sleep. Yet, tears slipped from the corners of her eyes.
Carissa gently wiped them away. “It’s okay. You've made it through the worst of it. It'll be fine now.”
Leona’s exhaustion was obvious from her complexion. It would take three doses of medicine for her to regain
even a bit of strength. She woke riefly to take the second dose, but quickly fell back asleep.

Ivy rested for a while, then approached Carissa and whispered, “Lady Carissa, why don’t you take a break? | can
keep watch.”
‘No need. I'm not sleepy,” Carissa replied, shaking her head. “You worked hard during the day, so you should get
srest. You'll still need to administer the medicine one more tbefore dawn.”
“Yes. Prince Harvey has left, but Lady Heather is staying in the estate. She's just in the next room. She probably
wants to stop you from taking Lady Leona away,” Ivy replied.
“She won't be able to stop me. I'm determined to take her with me,” Carissa firmly said.
After Rafael left, he went to see Jeremiah and explained everything.
The following morning, after the court session, Jeremiah spoke to Salvador in his study. Whatever he said caused
the king to erupt in anger. Samuel's status as a top scholar was revoked, and his nwas struck from the
National Examination Register. Salvador also ordered the SuprCourt to handle the case.
Once the case was underway, Leona wouldn't have any problems divorcing Samuel.
The following day, Harvey arrived just as Carissa was prepared to leave with Leona on her back. He, Heather,
and speople from the Earl of Gracehold’s family tried to stop her, but they didn’t dare use force. They could
only resort to trying to persuade her with words.
It was only when Rafael arrived with the royal edict that the atmosphere shifted. Everyone from the Earl of
Gracehold’s family knelt in fear, anxious that the king might strip them of the title in a fit of rage.
When they heard that only Samuel was being arrested, many breathed a sigh of relief. Samuel was now the
disgrace of their family, and they didn’t care that he would be taken away, as long as Noah's title was
retained.
Only Dorothy fainted upon hearing the news. She had spent the previous night devising a plan to help Samuel
escape, only to be thwarted by Alana and Leah, who were keeping a watchful eye on him. Dorothy's plan had
failed, and now, she couldn't do anything else as the SuprCourt officials were here to arrest her grandson
today.

Samuel trembled in fear as shackles were placed on him, suddenly realizing how powerless he truly was. The
once proud and arrogant man who used to rely on his talent was no more. Now, humbled and stripped of all
dignity, he was left begging his family for help.
Leona watched the scene unfold from Carissa’s back.
When Samuel turned to her to plead, Leona shut her eyes and whispered, “Let's go, Cari.”

No one dared to obstruct them any longer. Carissa carried her cousin while Violet, Alana, and Leah cleared the
way ahead. Leona’s dowry had been meticulously accounted for the previous night, and she asked for it to be
returned to her parents.
‘I don’t need it. I'm a county duchess and | have my own fief. | can take care of myself.”
Heather chased them to the doorway and cried out, “Leona, | only want what's best for you! You and your cousin
are not the same! You have no skills! How will you survive?”
Carissa ignored Heather. She marched straight to the carriage and took Leona to another residence.
Meanwhile, Rafael ordered Sam to be taken away.
Harvey stepped forward and pleaded, “Rafael, please show sconsideration for me. Don’t make things
difficult for him.”
Harvey's voice wasn’t loud, but it was audible enough to catch the attention of those from the Earl of
Gracehold’s family. Rafael cast them a fleeting glance, noticing that many were looking at Harvey with gratitude.
The man certainly had a way of hiding his true intentions.
Without saying a word, Rafael simply walked away.
With the incident at Gracehold Estate causing such a stir, it was only a matter of tbefore the news spread
throughout the entire capital.
