Chapter 162
Heather and Leona stayed for an hour before leaving. Carissa accompanied them to the gates of the estate,
maintaining a demeanor of complete friendliness and lack of resentment.
Lulu, feeling upset on her behalf, said, “My lady, you sent gifts to the princess, but the princess's mother had
them returned. Clearly, she looked down on you at that time. Why are you being so kind to them today?”
Sitting in front of the vanity, Carissa instructed Lulu to remove her hairpins. “Isn't socializing just a matter of
putting on a smile and exchanging pleasantries? Aunt Heather has always been kind to me. | was indeed
thoughtless before-sending gifts to my cousin while | was the one who had divorced.”
“But you didn’t personally go. Besides, you were granted a divorce by the king. It wasn't like your husband
unilaterally divorced you. Why were the gifts returned?”
“Lulu, don’t dwell on these things. It's exhausting to be so petty about everything.”
Carissa glanced at her weary reflection in the mirror.
The past few days had been busy non-stop, with a steady stream of visitors.
She was astonished at how many official families and noblewomen resided in the capital. But thinking about it,
she shouldn't be, as the most esteemed people from across the land gathered in this city.
“It’s impressive how open-minded you are, my lady,” Lulu said.
Carissa smiled at her reflection in the mirror. If she weren't open- minded, she wouldn't have survived this long.

Human nature was inherently selfish. When she had returned to Northwatch Estate after her divorce, the house
had been left in ruins. Even though she was backed by her father’s title, its decline seemed inevitable.
At that time, Barrett and Aurora were in the limelight. Heather had. kept her distance to avoid offending the
Warrens, as the principle in Harvey's household was to offend as few people as possible. If an offense was
unavoidable, they preferred to go easier targets.
With Carissa’s success and Aurora facing military punishment with no achievements of her own, it seemed that
the Warren family had little hope of rising.
Heather cto curry favor, recognizing that despite everything. they still shared a family connection. Even if
Carissa held sgrudge, she had to accept and forgive for the sake of familial ties.
Just as Carissa had removed her hairpins and planned to rest for a while, Joy rushed in breathlessly. “My lady!
The Warren family’s matriarch has arrived! She collapsed right at our doorstep!”
Lulu’s eyes flared with anger. “She dares to chere? What nerve. does she have? Collapsing at our doorstep-
what is she trying to achieve?”
“She cwith a few people, including someone claiming to be
your former sister-in-law. She’s outside, shouting that her mother is gravely ill and is begging you to lift the ban
and allow Sebastian to treat her!” Joy replied.
Lulu’s eyebrows furrowed deeply. “How outrageous! Sebastian. refused to treat her because of their family’s own
misconduct! How could this be blamed on Lady Sinclair?”
Carissa booked up, and asked, “What about Frederick? Has he gone to handle it?”
“A. Carter went out. He askedto inform you, and advised your not to get involved,” Joy said, clearly agitated.
She took a deep breath. “They’le causing a huge commotion outside, and they've attracted a large crowd of
onlookers.”
“Has Barrett come?” Carissa inquired.
“No, he hasn't been seen. Neither has General Yates.”
Carissa gathered her hair into a
