Chapter 1000
Violet had a way of thinking that was a little different from most people. After a moment of silence, she turned to
Carissa and asked, “Is it because he’s upset the king demoted him and cut his salary? Is that why he’s throwing
a tantrum and resigning?”
She wasn't sure if Barrett was really like that, but she knew she was.
Whenever her family or her mentor offered her less than expected, she would dig in her heels and quit, using
retreat as a strategy to gain leverage.
Seeing the displeasure on Carissa’s face, she quickly added, “Let’s not talk about him anymore. He's a nuisance.
Since the king won't let him resign, there's nothing more to be done. He can’t make a fuss.”
The others nodded in agreement, shifting the conversation to lighter topics. They ate their honey cakes, and
when Rafael didn’t return, Lulu suggested saving sfor him
After everyone left, Violet turned to Carissa and said, “Actually, it might be a good thing if he resigns. A man like
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthim doesn’t deserve to be the deputy commander of the Nightsteel Guard.”
Carissa sighed. “At this time, anyone even remotely connected to Victory Pass should keep their heads down. We
don’t need any more gossip or attention. Whether he resigns on his own or the king dismisses him, it'll draw
people’s eyes to my grandpa and uncle. It's the perfect opportunity for someone with ulterior motives to twist
the narrative and stir up trouble.”
Violet nodded. “Right, but what kind of trouble could it cause?”
Carissa calmed down after her anger subsided and explained, “Yuvan has been trying to get the Sullivan family
to withdraw from Victory Pass. The situation in Fawnrun City has caused a huge stir in both Westhaven and
Victory Pass.
“It’s clear that Yuvan and Westhaven are working together behind this. Now, Aurora has been sent to Westhaven
for her crimes. My grandpa, as the commander in charge of Victory Pass, will be blamed for not supervising the
troops properly.
“Barrett is partially responsible for leading his men to Fawnrun City. This whole affair doesn’t implicate my
uncles, so on the surface, it seems fair enough. But if Barrett resigns in shame, Yuvan could use that to spread
rumors, claiming that the Sullivan family was aware of the guilt but clung to their military power. That would
tarnish the Sullivan family’s reputation among the people.”
Violet stared at Carissa for a long time, her thoughts swirling. She couldn't quite explain why, but there was a
complicated feeling inside her, mixed with a subtle ache.
This feeling had been with her ever since she first met Carissa on the battlefield.

Chapter 1000
Back at Meadow Ridge, Violet had thought of Carissa as just a bit more skilled in martial arts than she was. But
when it cto experience, knowledge, and understanding of the world, Violet had always believed she was the
wiser one,
People and relationships were something she knew how to navigate, while Carissa seemed naive and just lacking
in those areas.
At least, that was how Violet had seen it before
But now, Carissa had learned everything. From even the smallest details, she could see the bigger picture. She
calculated every move so precisely that no small change or shift could escape her analysis. And her emotions
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwere completely stable-everything was always approached with calm, rational thought.
How much would someone have to endure for their personality to change so drastically?
At that thought, Violet almost couldn't hold back the tears.
Carissa noticed Violet's sudden, teary expression and quickly asked, “What's wrong?”
“It's nothing,” Violet replied, always keeping her emotions close to her chest. “I just find Barrett so infuriating.”
Carissa smiled gently. “It’s alright, I'm not upset anymore. | know what kind of person he is, so it's no surprise
that he would act like this. The feeling will pass.”
“Yeah!” Violet hugged her, sniffing. “No matter what happens from now on, we'll always be together.”
“Of course.” Carissa patted her back, smiling once more. She was surprised by Violet's sudden wave of
sentimentality. Why was Violet feeling so emotional all of a sudden?
Lulu poked her head in and saw the two of them hugging, but she wasn’t shocked. Back in Meadow Ridge, they
had always been inseparable. Their heads were always together, and they were affectionately close.
“Prince Rafael should be back soon,” Lulu said. “Also, Lady Helen wants you to join her for dinner.”
Carissa nodded. “Alright, we'll head over soon. Oh, and make sure to send sof the honey cakes that Mrs.
Brown brought over to Mother.”
