Her Majestic Battle Cry 643
Chapter 643
However, Carissa wouldn't let Heather have her way.
If Heather wasn’t afraid of shedding all pretenses and was unconcerned about the reputations of her family and
the Earl of Gracehold’s family, then let her come!
Carissa sharply said, “First, when Samuel took a concubine and abandoned Leona, you all stood by and told her
to endure it. Leona is a dignified duchess and the man’s rightful wife. Why should she have to tolerate a
courtesan? Where did you place her royal dignity then?
“Second, when Samuel first beat Leona and left her bedridden, neither you nor Prince Harvey uttered a word
against him. You merely sent ssupplements to Leona and told her to endure until Samuel changed his mind.
*Third, Leona had a difficult tgiving birth because Samuel pushed her down the stairs. When she had one
foot in the grave, she called out for me, ousin, not you, her mother. When the king discovered that, he was
furious at Samuel for mistreating and abusing Leona. But instead of standing up for your daughter, you defend
her husband and cling to this marriage.
“Do you wish for Leona to die? Is that why you want her to continue to suffer under Samuel's torment until she

Heather's expression changed drastically as she stared at Carissa in shock. It was as if she couldn't believe her
niece had spoken so callously in public. And Heather was sure Carissa had deliberately thrown that last sentence
in.
No one knew about what happened to Avis, as Yuvan and his people had kept it tightly under wraps. Even when
Avis willingly went to Verdant Monastery, it was under the guise of recovering her health. Yuvan had presented
everything in a positive light and made everything look perfect. It didn’t matter that srumors had gotten
out, since even Avis’ two daughters were protecting Yuvan.
With Avis’ own daughters saying as such, who would dare question it? After all, the outside world was rife with
mixed truth and lies.
Yet, Yuvan had married Molly not long after Avis’ death, which would inevitably raise eyebrows. Now that the
matter was being brought up, it left everyone free to speculate.
Yuvan wanted to maintain a clean and respectable image, right?
No way that was happening!
Since Yuvan had returned to the capital, it was tto confront him directly and in a systematic order.
Carissa continued, “Also, I'm not stopping you from seeing your daughter. If you approach Leona as her mother,
I'm sure she would be delighted.”
Having finished speaking, Carissa took the shoes and climbed into the carriage under the watchful eyes of the
crowd. She left Heather standing at the estate’s entrance, subject to the crowd's curious gaze.
Fuming, Heather turned and stormed back into Hartstone Estate.
Meanwhile, Dorothy had really begun a hunger strike.

Noah had already gone to Hartstone Estate twice. Harvey informed him that he had already used his connections
to ensure Samuel wouldn't suffer or be punished at the SuprCourt, and asked Noah to relay this to Dorothy.
Noah thanked him profusely, feeling guilty that his family had not treated Leona well.
After a momentary hesitation, Noah asked, “With all this wrath brewing, do you think it will drag other people
from our family into trouble?”

Harvey remained silent for a long time, his brows furrowed in thought. It made Noah increasingly uneasy.
No one in the Earl of Gracehold’s family dared to approach the king anymore. Even during court sessions, they
were eager to be the first to leave, wanting to avoid being singled out for reprimands. It was one thing to be
reprimanded, but they were most afraid that Salvador’s would strip their family of their title in a fit of anger.
“Your Highness? Noah called out again, ser
Harvey lost in thought.
Harvey looked up and sighed. “Because | failed to protect Leona, the king doesn’t care fornow. The
separation between our families is inevitable. As for Samuel, | still think of him as my son-in-law and want to
ensure he doesn’t suffer at the SuprCourt, but | can’t guarantee that this won't affect your title,
“Maybe you can try to approach Yuvan. He's currently caring for Lady Ruth in the palace and goes to see the
queen dowager on a daily basis, so he could probably intercede with her on your behalf. Samuel won't be able to
escape the consequences, but at least you'll be able to protect your family’s standing.”
“Prince Yuvan?” Noah paused, taken aback.
But then, he quickly realized it was a good idea. Yuvan had been in Valken and was back in the capital to care for
Lady Ruth. The queen dowager would surely show him sconsideration since Yuvan had left, his mother in
the capital when he went to his fief.
“Thank you for your suggestion, Your Highness. I'll go right away,” Noah said gratefully before leaving hurriedly.
