Her Majestic Battle Cry

Chapter 1185

Carlssa left the academy with Zoey. Instead of riding her own horse, she had someone lead It while she sat in

Zoey's carriage.

Carissa had two things to tell her.

First, she said, “Isaac selected sgoods that weren't of the best quality and sold them. The money from the

sales wasn’t converted to banknotes, and it’s all been stored in the cellar at Glimmering Tower.”

“It’s what the Earl of Silverstone’s family owes him. He should feel free to spend it. I've put saside as well,

just in case,” Zoey softly replied.

“He won't spend it. He doesn’t need the money,” Carissa said.

Then, she moved on to the second topic, explaining, “As for Celeste, His Majesty has

confirmed her identity. He knows she’s taken a woman from Lunvale as her godmother. As for the surname

Spencer, it's from a branch of the Spencer family in Ebonflow. They do business in Lunvale as well.

“The person you found out she was conspiring with is likely from the Spencer family. It would be better if His

Majesty moved against them. But if he doesn’t, your family could becentangled in a more dangerous and

difficult situation.”

Carissa withheld key details, such as the investigation into the private army in Lunvale. These were things that

couldn't be revealed.

She only offered this information to prepare Zoey. If Oliver changed his mind now, the Earl of Silverstone’s family

could still find a way to avoid the worst outcome. At most, they would lose their noble title, but that wouldn't be

the worst case. It all depended on whether Zoey could manage to change Oliver's mind.

After hearing this, Zoey just nodded silently without saying anything.

With that, Carissa knew Zoey had done her best, but Oliver hadn't listened to her. She patted Zoey’s hand but

didn’t offer any comforting words. She got off the carriage halfway and rode back to her residence.

For example, when Carissa used to ride through the streets in official attire, the common people would stare at

her with all kinds of looks. But now, it seemed they’d gotten used to it, and seven greeted her with a smile.

They had accepted such an unconventional princess consort, but still hadn't fully accepted such an

unconventional woman.

The next evening, the matter of Jocelyn’s expulsion reached Malcolm's ears. However, neither

Vera nor Jocelyn explained the full truth. They only said that several young women had argued about something

and Carlssa had stepped in to settle it, resulting in Jocelyn being expelled.

Malcolm was usually a careful person, but in recent years, he had becarrogant and overconfident in the

Quinton family’s upbringing. He believed his relatives would never do anything out of line.

And when Jocelyn tearfully explained that she had argued with the other young ladies to protect his reputation, it

stirred a deep sense of shand indignation within him, making him lose all sense of reason.

His affair with a mistress, despite all his efforts to keep it quiet, always seemed to find its way into public gossip.

It was a persistent thorn in his side that challenged his authority.

He believed Carissa was deliberately targeting him, since she had personally handled the arrangements for

Henry's concubines and their children, which led Marjorie to discover his

affair.

Lately, Marjorie had been cold and distant. She still managed the household, but was clearly less involved than

before.

Because of these issues, he never doubted what Jocelyn and Vera said.

But now, one of Malcolm's students had lodged a formal complaint against Carissa, and it involved Gracewood

Women's Academy. Oddly enough, people started seeing the academy in a new light.

Salvador completely ignored it, acting as if he hadn't heard. After a brief glance across the hall, he asked, “Is

there anything else to report?”

His complete disregard was a direct slap in Malcolm's face. The court fell silent for a moment before other

officials began to step forward to report their own matters.
