"Understood, Commander Sinclair." Stephanie was taken aback, her cheeks flushing with indignation. “Carissa, don't say such nonsense! When have I ever defied orders?" Carissa remained unmoved in her seat and continued, "Also note that Lady Stephanie scoldedand has displayed an extremely poor attitude." Kirk's quill flew across the page. "Noted. It's been recorded.” Stephanie walked over and saw that Kirk had indeed written down Carissa's words. In a fit of anger, she reached out to tear the page, but Michael swiftly blocked her with his sword.

Then, he coldly said, "Note that Lady Stephanie attempted to destroy the testimony." Stephanie stumbled back two steps. She was caught off guard by the blade and didn't dare to retaliate further. Seeing that Carissa showed no leniency despite their familial ties, Fiona quickly stood up to ease the tension. *Commander Sinclair, please don't hold this against Stephanie. She's young and inexperienced and has never encountered such a situation. Besides, you're cousins. There's no need to make things so tense, right?" Carissa didn't even glance at Stephanie, her expression cool and distant. "The Capital Guard handles cases with impartiality. What do familial ties have to do with this, Lady Fiona? They share no more bond with their own mom than they do with me." Fiona understood that Carissa was not someone to be trifled with. She forced a smile and said, "Of course. If you have any questions, please ask. We will certainly answer truthfully." Carissa fixed her gaze on Fiona, "Are all of you aware that Eleanor has been hoarding weapons?" Fiona immediately shook her head. She looked at Kirk and said, "No, we didn't know anything about this- nothing at all. Prince Yuvan doesn't know either." Carissa replied, "Whether Prince Yuvan knows or not is a matter for him to clarify. Just answer whether you all knew." Unease stirred within Fiona. If this was just a routine inquiry, why was Carissa being so sharp from the start? "No, we didn't know," she replied.

Then, Carissa shifted her attention to Randall and the two county duchesses.

Do you find it suspicious that when Lady Ruth fell ill, Prince Yuvan brought you back to the capital to care! for her?"

Sabrina's frustration flared. "What's suspicious about it? Dad has always been filial! What's suspicious about returning to care for his mom? Isn't it more questionable that his mom is gravely ill while her son is miles away? What's the point of all this questioning?"

Carissa met her gaze. "You're right. It is only natural for children to attend to their ailing parents. So, why was your mom recuperating alone at Verdant Monastery, while you three siblings and Lady Fiona's three children were absent?
