Her Majestic Battle Cry

Chapter 36



But this matter was impossible to investigate now. The spies were either dead or had disappeared back to Westhaven, where they couldn’t be found

Carissa couldn’t help but feel bitterness and pain as she thought of her father and brothers again.

They had once reclaimed the Southern Frontier, only to lose it again and die tragically on the battlefield. If the Hell Monarch could win the ongoing war and reclaim the Southern Frontier, it would fulfill the wishes of her father and brothers.

On her first night back home, Carissa didn’t sleep well Her dreams were filled with scenes of her mother, sister–in–law, nephews, and nieces being killed. After jolting awake in the middle of the night, she couldn’t fall back asleep. She spent the rest of the night lying in bed staring wide-eyed at the canopy, her mind racing,

From the wounds on her family members‘ bodies, Carissa could see how ruthless the assailants had been. It was clear that they had been venting their anger

Losing a battle shouldn’t have caused Westhaven to resort to such methods, especially since it wasn’t their first defeat. Previously, Carissa’s father and brothers had won a battle against the enemy kingdom, killing thirty thousand soldiers in the process. Yet, Westhaven’s spies hadn’t taken any action then

Why had that specific battle led to such a massive retaliation, to the point that they even revealed their identities to vent their anger by killing women and children?

Canssa tossed and turned, unable to sleep until dawn.

When Lulu came in to attend to her, she saw Carissa’s haggard face. Assuming her mistress was sad because of Barrett’s heartlessness, Lulu didn’t dare ask her about it, simply choosing to silently wipe away

her tears in secret.

The next day, Solomon took some of the younger members of the Sinclair family along with him to help retrieve the remaining items from Carrisa’s dowry from the Warren family. They took everything on the gift list–from sandalwood tables and chairs, to furniture and embroidered partition screens.

Every single thing. They didn’t want to leave anything for the Warren family

Rebecca cried and cursed Carissa for being disrespectful, selfish, jealous, and narrow–minded.

Hearing those words, Solomon exploded in anger, shouting fiercely, “How has my niece treated you since she married into your family? Ask around the neighborhood if anyone has anything bad to say about her! “Vet, you accuse her of being jealous and selfish? Why don’t you ask your son what shameful things he’s done? On their wedding day, he went off to battle and came back trying to use his war merits to marry

another woman.

“He even invited the elders of the two families and a matchmaker to dissolve the manage, hoping to keep her dowry. Is your family not guilty of such shameless acts? How dare you cry and shout here? Aren’t you afraid of the neighbors hearing and the whole city criticizing you for your shameless behavior? The Sinclair family earned everything on the dowry list with their war merits, and gave it all away, as well as gave their lives, to ensure Cari would be safe for the rest of her life!

kick her out. Shameless!”

Pausing after his tirade, Solomon then ordered, “Don’t bother talking to these people. Take everything and go! Just move everything!”

Though Rebecca was furious and embarrassed, she was unable to retort.

When she saw them taking away a sandalwood and gold partition screen, she lunged forward. “You can take everything else, but you can’t take this partition screen!

Solomon looked coldly at Barrett. “The empress dowager gave Cari this partition screen as part of her dowry. Do you think your family can afford such an item? Your greed has no limits!”

Feeling humiliated, Barrett’s face turned red as he stepped forward to pull his mother away.

“All these things belong to her. Give them back to her. They are just material possessions, aren’t they? I’ll earn enough to buy one for you in the future,” he declared loudly.

Despite Barrett restraining his mother, she continued to struggle.

Her hair was in disarray as she cursed loudly, “That ungrateful wretch is now nothing but an abandoned woman. Who would marry her? Even if anyone wants her, it’s only for the Duke of Norwatch’s title! There’s no way any respectable family in the capital would want to marry a discarded woman!”

Solomon snorted. “You don’t need to worry about that. Whether she remarries or stays in the estate has nothing to do with your family. From the moment the royal edict for the divorce was declared, the ties between her and your family were severed.”

Not wanting to look at Rebecca’s ugly face anymore, Solomon ordered firmly, “Move out!”

“Tell her that I hope she won’t regret this,” said Barrett, feeling dissatisfied and unable to accept the older man’s words.

“I will deliver your message. Goodbye!” Solomon responded coldly.
