NovelEnglishChapter 779 Gareth angrily shouted, "No need for that! If you have something to say, spit it out and then get lost!" "Gareth!" Mikhail snapped. "Mind your manners!" Gareth rolled his eyes. "Don't be so weak, Mikhail. What are you afraid of? If we've done nothing wrong. we have nothing to fear." Carissa studied Gareth, recognizing that his temperament mirrored that of his dad. However, Norman had genuine skill and achievements, which made people endure his temper even when it was difficult.
Gareth was different. He relied on his dad's power and barked out complaints at the slightest provocation -he was like a yapping dog emboldened by his connections. With such an explosive attitude, few in the Ministry of Defense dared to cross him, which only encouraged his arrogance.

Bring out your concubine, Lady Cecilia. 1 have questions for her." Cecilia had been in the Whitfield family for seven years. She had given birth to two sons and a daughter, and was the apple of Gareth's eye. While it didn't go so far as to diminish the position of his primary wife, Cecilia had far more favor than the others.
Gareth's primary wife had given birth only to daughters, while Cecilia had blessed him with two sons. Naturally, Gareth held her in high regard.
The mention of Cecilia changed the expressions of those present. They had heard the rumors about the daughters of concubines from Eleanor's household scattering into various noble families, and the 'implications weren't lost on them.
However, Gareth was only momentarily taken aback. Hearing Carissa nhis beloved concubine directly only fueled his anger further.
"What does a woman of the inner courtyard know? Do you want her to cout just to humiliate her? You can ask those of us present whatever you want!" Carissa gazed at Gareth's flushed face and enunciated clearly, "Lady Cecilia's surnis Kingsley. Her dad is Lord Henry, and she's part of the Kingsley family as well as Eleanor's household. Her biological mom's nis Thelma, who passed away in May three years ago." The revelation stunned everyone in the room.
After a moment of shock, Gareth exploded with rage, shouting, "You're just spouting nonsense!" It was the typically subservient Mikhail who remained composed enough to act.

Why are you calling Cecilia? This is a blatant attempt to frher! You know her parents are both deceased, and she has no relatives left. This woman is trying to pin this identity on Cecilia to drag our family into the treason case! How could you even entertain such a malicious notion?" Mikhail ignored him and continued, "Open the main door and let the Capital Guard and scribe in." Chapter 779 "Dad!" Gareth looked at Norman, whose face was ashen. "If Mikhail lets them in like this, what dignity will our family have left?" Norman remained silent. Having suppressed the surging energy and blood in his body, he had calmed down, but he could not refute Carissa's statement, nor could he oppose the Capital Guard's entry.
It was no wonder Carissa hadn't left after waiting for an hour. As Mikhall had said, she had only chere because it was necessary, and there were things that she needed to verify..
Now, all Norman could hope for was that Cecilia wasn Henry's daughter, or this could blow up into a huge scandal.
Norman naturally was unaware that Carissa had already reported to Salvador before coming here. Once alvador Salvador agr Salvador agreed that the concubines' daughters were all victims, Carissa cto Oakspire Estate.
Otherwise, with Gareth's sensitive position in the Ministry of Defense, Salvador would have no choice but to suspect the Duke of Oakspire's family. After all, most of the weapons and armor found in Harmony Palace were modeled after those from the Ministry of Defense's arsenal.
Among the concubines' daughters, the most dangerous were Celeste For and Carmen. As for the for the one currently with the Quinton family, she was relatively harmless. The Quinton family was known for being strict, so it was unlikely the woman there could cause trouble. Still, they would need to take the woman away for the tbeing.
