Malcolm shifted uncomfortably, as if sitting on pins and needles, but he still managed to ask, “Your Highness,
what will His Majesty do with these women?
Rafael replied, “You should ask Commander Sinclair. She's in charge of this matter.”
Malcolm awkwardly turned to Carissa, his gaze evasive “If | may ask, Commander Sinclair...”
Carissa cut him off, answering directly, “Lord Lionel has already spoken to me. I've informed him that the
families can either keep the women or send them to the Capital Guard for centralized supervision. It's up to you,
Lord Malcolm. If you choose to keep them yourself, they cannot leave the capital or have contact with anyone
else since the mastermind behind the treason case hasn't been identified yet.”
Upon hearing this, Malcolm let out a small sigh of relief and inquired, “If we hand them over to the Capital Guard,
where will they be taken?”

“We're currently reaching out to various convents in the capital to find one large enough to accommodate them.
The funds seized from the Marquis of Grovehill’s family and Eleanor will cover the expenses.
“A convent?” Malcolm rubbed his knees with both hands, a thoughtful expression on his face. “That means the
conditions won't be very good.”
“Basic needs will be met, but if you're expecting luxury, you'll be disappointed,” Carissa stated.
After a pause, she added, “But this is only temporary. Once the treason case is resolved, they will be free to
leave.”
“So, as long as the case remains unresolved, they'll have to stay in the convent.”
“Exactly. However, if you're reluctant to part with her, you could keep her under your care, but any issues that
arise will be your responsibility.”
Malcolm shook his head. “I won't keep her.”
“If that’s your decision, we will take her away. But | remember you have a daughter with Casey. Do you plan to
bring her hor have her follow Casey to the convent?”
With a look of determination, Malcolm replied, “Neither. | will make separate arrangements for her.” Carissa said,
“Actually, if Casey takes the child to the convent, life won't be too harsh. Having a child around means she'll be
given extra care. At that age, being away from both parents isn’t necessarily a good thing.”
Malcolm firmly disagreed. “That's not something you need to worry about, Commander Sinclair. She can’t take
the child to the convent. There can’t be any children around her.”
Carissa nodded. “Alright, we won't force the issue. His Majesty has classified the women as victims. If the noble
families they lived with don’t arrange anything for them, we will. As for the child, she is your flesh and blood, so |
trust you will take good care of her.”
“That is my responsibility and mine alone. You don’t need to concern yourself with it.” Malcolm clearly disliked
Carissa’s continued mention of the child. “Is there anything else | need to address? These matters must be
reported to His Majesty, right?”

Carissa replied matter-of-factly, “Yes, they must be reported. His Majesty is keeping a close eye on this case,
and he already has the list of the women. Therefore, we must account for everyone's whereabouts.” “Your
Highness!” Malcolm looked at Rafael earnestly. ask a favor of you. Please handle this matter. discreetly. It should
not be common knowledge.”

Noting the irritation in Malcolm's tone, Rafael responded with equal bluntness, “I'll say it again- Commander
Sinclair is in charge of this matter. You're asking the wrong person.”
Malcolm sighed deeply. “Is it possible to handle this discreetly, Commander Sinclair?”
“This is already the most discreet handling possible. If hadn't kept it low-key, | would have given the case
straight to the SuprCourt to inquire. You should understand that this matter shouldn't have been known by
anyone in the Quinton family, Lord Malcolm. It was your oversight. The SuprCourt has plenty of cases to
handle, and their officials can’t wait around for your family. We reached out to the Quinton family last, which
allowed you to prepare in advance. Strangely, it seems you didn’t take the necessary steps.”
“I wasn’t aware who she was.” Malcolm waved his hand, his expression weary. “As for my household, we already
have an explanation. We just need to keep this from spreading outside.”
Carissa replied calmly, “To protect those women, we won't casually spread any information. You should focus on
keeping a close watch on the people in your household, Lord Malcolm.”
Malcolm pressed his lips together, his entire demeanor tense.
Carissa didn’t care how he felt about it, but his unwillingness to cooperate showed his inherent arrogance. Since
he had chosen to keep a mistress and enjoy fleeting pleasures, he had to face the consequences alone.
