Chapter 750
Once they were outside, Ivy stopped hiding the truth from Carmen.
“I have to be honest with you now. If your mom had received treatment just a month earlier, her condition
wouldn't have deteriorated this far. You should spend stwith her. Her days are numbered.”
Carmen felt her mind go blank. If she had any doubts about Violet's words earlier, they vanished completely

Melanie had been in the dungeon and had received medicine, but it clearly wasn’t meant to treat her illness. The
household physicians in Harmony Palace were skilled. If they had truly intended to help her, she would have

Violet was about to leave after Ivy left on her donkey, but seeing Carmen in such distress made her hesitate. She
pulled Carmen back into the cabin. “No matter what, your mom still needs you to take care of her.”
Carmen tossed the banknote and prescription to the ground, then turned and rushed into the room. She knelt
beside Melanie's bed, and desperation laced her voice as she cried out, “Mom, please tellwhy did she have
to do this?”
Melanie paused, momentarily taken aback before she understood Carmen’s question. After a long silence, she
sighed heavily.

could rescue you. But why? Why resort to such measures... How old is that household physician? Why would she
do that?”
Carmen sank to the floor and sobbed hysterically.
She didn’t understand at all.
Violet sensed that Melanie knew why Celeste had acted this way-the pain in her eyes was all too evident.
Melanie stayed silent for a long time, and her tears flowed uncontrollably.
Finally, her voice trembled as she said, “It's my fault for involving you both, Carmen. She had her reasons. If you
two had always been in the ssituation, she.
Violet watched Melanie closely, piecing together Carmen’s earlier words, and a thought struck her.
She couldn't help but ask, “Carmen, when you mentioned gaining Prince Rafael and Carl's trust, could

“How did you know she wanted to hurt you?” Carmen grasped her mom's hand, her gaze falling on the streak of
gray in her mom's hair. “Did you know she was colluding with the household physician? How did you find out?”
Melanie smilled bitterly.
“She’s my daughter. | know her thoughts well. She visitedand said a lot of things. She was filled with
