Chapter 836 Previously, due to Salvador's focus on the Eleanor treason case, Carissa had not attended court. Today marked her first tin court after the case was wrapped up, so by the tFrederick arrived at Hell Monarch Estate, Carissa and Rafael had already left.
As he couldn't meet with Carissa, Frederick informed Jacob about the situation.
Jacob didn't dismiss the matter just because it involved the Warren family. He invited Frederick in for coffee, chatted briefly with Lily, and then sent for Violet to ask her opinion.

However, when Violet arrived, she yawned and said, "I don't know. I haven't been watching Valor Estate closely, I just instructed my people to keep tabs on Yuvan's movements. I'm aware of who he's been in contact with, but I really have no ide about what's going on in the Warren family." "That's strange," Jacob replied.
"Why would we concern ourselves with the Warren family's matters?" Violet shrugged, appearing unconcerned. Although she didn't hold any ill feelings toward Amelia, she also didn't have any affection for her.
"We certainly won't get involved in their issues. The problem is that Madam Amelia was seen sitting outside Northwatch Estate for quite a while. If something happens to her or if she stirs up trouble, it would bring unnecessary scrutiny on us," Jacob explained.
Still feeling sleepy, Violet yawned again, her eyes glistening with moisture. "In that case, should we send someone to look for her? From what I've heard, Amelia has been under a lot of pressure. You know how awful Aurora and Viola are-she might have been pushed to a breaking point." "Let's look for her, then. We wouldn't want anything to go wrong." Jacob shook his head. "Why did she sit outside Northwatch Estate for no reason? She doesn't have any ties with Lady Carissa." Logically speaking, even though the Warren family and Carissa were not outright enemies, they also weren't on friendly terms. For Amelia to sit outside Northwatch Estate's gates, knowing full well that Carissa wasn't there, clearly indicated that she wasn't seeking her out.
Since she wasn't looking for Carissa and given Amelia's temperament, it was unlikely she was looking to stir up trouble. With Barrett recently promoted, the Warren family had to tread carefully, so it was improbable that anyone from the family had sent her to make a scene.
It seemed Amelia was simply dealing with her own issues and had nowhere else to go, so she ended up sitting outside Northwatch Estate.
"Let's find her! Get moving!" Jacob commanded as he dispatched people to search. "But keep it low-key. Just stroll around and see what you can find." After giving his orders, he turned to Violet and added, "Ms. Spencer, Lady Carissa may be at the Central Command Office after court, or she might be at the Capital Guard headquarters. Check both places just in case something happened to Madam Amelia." Violet nodded. "Got it. I'll take care of it." Just as she was about to head back to change, Ivy walked in carrying a medicine box.

Ivy rolled her eyes. "Lily's not feeling well. I cby yesterday. You're so heartless. It's a waste that Lily treats you so well." "Really? No one told me." Violet sighed. "I'll go see her when I get back. Is she going to be okay?"
"It's nothing serious. Just a minor illness," Ivy said as she stepped further inside, but suddenly halted! While I was talking to the gatekeeper, I overheard you mentioning Madam Amelia. What's going on with her? She was buying medicine at Arcane Sanctum yesterday." "Really? Did anything seem off with her?" Violet asked, urgency creeping into her voice.
"I wasn't there, but the shop assistant said she cin looking for om Snowdrop Bills and Evergreen Pills. They mentioned her eyes were red and puffy, like she'd been crying.” "Crying? She must have suffered sgrievance." Tvy shrugged. "Madam Amelia suffering sgrievance is nothing new. She's probably gotten used to it by now."
Violet immediately grabbed Ivy's arm and pulled her toward Lily's room "Let's not look for Carissa just yet. We need to figure out what's happening first. How do you know all this? I want to hear the details."
