Her Majestic Battle Cry 700
Chapter 700
However, Jack and Curtis continued to tremble all over.
One moment, they were safe at home. The next, a group of rough men had dragged them here and imprisoned
them.
The oldest of the two children had yet to reach eight. How could they not be afraid?
Thalia was equally terrified, but as a mother, she steeled herself. Pushing aside her fear and worry, she joined
her husband in comforting their two sons.
But when the couple exchanged glances, their eyes were filled with despair and helplessness.
Rafael listened to Daniel and Thalia’s words in the cell next door. He couldn't help but feel a swell of admiration.
His father-in-law’s spirit truly radiated through every son of the Sinclair family, especially considering that
Daniel had little interaction with Hector. Daniel was just a businessman, but he still possessed such unwavering
resolve.
Theodore had taught them well.

What did it mean to be a true noble family? They embodied it.
Even without many officials in the court, the Sinclair family members‘ unity and integrity were enough to make
many so-called noble families feel ashamed.
This angered Henry-he could never achieve what Daniel had in his life.
Henry and Melanie Lester were in the far left cell, and Rafael could still hear their voices.
Melanie's voice was soft, filled with disappointment and sorrow as she said, “They're your daughters! How could
you be so heartless?”
“Betraying the grand princess leads to a dead end. If | hadn't exposed her, it would have cost us our lives and
endangered both of our families. Melanie, | had no choice,” Henry replied.
“No choice?” Melanie sobbed. “You've used the exact phrase for many years! Whenever you had to choose, you
toldyou had none. Why didn’t you tell your family that? They have the power to resist. Even if they didn’t,
they could still get by if they remained content with the status quo. But every time, you ctoand say you
had no choice. You say that to all your other concubines and daughters Every tyou say that, someone ends
up dead.
“I'm so tired of you! Carmen is the only one who's fighting back. She has spirit, but she’s stuck with a spineless
father like you. When she cto see me, | saw a light in her eyes that I'd never seen in yours. You're her
father, but you won't help her. If that wasn’t bad enough, you even exposed her and harmed her
Melanie's voice gradually faded. It sounded as if she was being forcibly embraced, stifling the words she wanted
to say.
Rafael knew Melanie was in feeble health from the sound of her voice and her breathing. If she stayed here much
longer, she would likely die within ten days or so.
Henry was truly a despicable man. He betrayed those poor concubines, and was even willing to sell out his
daughters

Rafael recalled encountering Henry behind a rockery during a palace banquet, where Henry cried in despair. The
man he had seen then was a far cry from the one he heard and saw now.
Back then, perhaps Henry had loved someone. Ultimately, he only loved himself.
After a long silence, Henry sighed. “You're only thinking of your own life. The grand princess hasn't sent anyone
with medicine in a while. I'm sneaking you some, but | don’t know how long | can keep it up. If Carmen really

done for.”
“It would be better to die!” A sharp voice cut through the gloom, sounding like a different person entirely. The
voice was laced with bitter sarcasm and despair, accompanied by soft sobs. “It would be better to die. | could
join my son... My son...!"”
As the cries erupted, the entire cell block was filled with weeping
Henry barked, “Why are you all crying? You'll only attract attention! If the guards cdown here, it won't be
death-it’ll be a beating! Do you think dying is so easy? If it were, would you still be suffering down here?”
His words frightened them into silence. The sobs and whimpers vanished as quickly as they started, leaving only
a tense calmness.
Daniel held his wife and children tightly. Was this a dungeon? No, this was clearly hell! This was the hell of
Harmony Palace-a place he had never imagined could exist in his wildest dreams.
Rafael felt pained listening from the other side. How terrified must Daniel and his family be?
He couldn't rescue them yet, however. Eleanor would be alerted if they were discovered missing tomorrow, and
the plan for the following night would likely fail.
It seemed tonight was a night of torment and endurance for many.
