Viola was unaware of what Zoey had done.

Viola had returned to Valor Estate, and told Rebecca and Barrett that she wasn’t feeling well. She claimed the physician said her anxiety was due to a recent fright, and that she would need some time to recover.

Barrett wasn’t suspicious at all. Instead, he felt more guilty. After all, the assassination attempt had scared Viola badly, and she was already heartbroken over the deaths of Julia and Yvonne. Grief could easily weaken a person’s constitution, so Barrett told her to rest and take care of herself.

Viola planned to recover for a few days and then use it as an excuse to return to Silverstone Estate to rest further.

But on the third day, rumors spread about Thomas looking for marriage candidates. It was the servants in the estate gossiping, and she overheard it. After listening, she frowned in disbelief.

That was impossible.

Thomas had promised her. He wasn’t the kind of person to go back on his word, and he must have found out about the assassination at Valor Estate. There was no way he would abandon her.

Viola immediately called over her two maids, and asked harshly, “You two never leave the estate. Where did you hear this nonsense about Major General Farrell looking for a wife? If you dare spread rumors again, I’ll have your tongues cut out!”

The two maids were merely tasked with sweeping and cleaning, and they usually didn’t serve inside the house. Hearing their mistress‘ sharp tone, they hurriedly responded in a terrified manner, “Madam Viola, we weren’t spreading rumors! It was the kitchen staff who heard it, and the news has spread everywhere outside. Many noble ladies are eager to marry him.”

“Impossible!” Viola shouted in disbelief.

The maids were so frightened, they dropped to their knees. “Forgive us, Madam Viola! We misspoke!”

Viola refused to believe it. Without hesitation, she took Poppy with her and left for Silverstone Estate. The last time she had been there, she had angered Evelyn to the point of fainting and had left without looking back.

Evelyn was still furious when she saw Viola. “What are you doing here?”

“Mom.” Viola’s eyes were bloodshot. She didn’t care that Luna was present, and asked, “Is what the people are saying true? Is Thomas looking for a wife?”

Evelyn responded coldly, “If he’s looking for a wife, what does that have to do with us? Why does it concern you?”

“How can it not concern me? He promised me!” Viola stubbornly turned to Luna. “I don’t believe it. Tell me

-is it true?”

Luna helped Evelyn lie down, then turned to face Viola “It’s true. The Farrell family has already arranged for a matchmaker, and the news spread quickly. After all, Thomas achieved great military merits as a third -rank major general. His search for a marriage candidate has stirred up the entire city, and many families have sent inquiries. After all, the Farrell family is known for their righteousness and loyalty. Being a young

hero, Thomas is the dream hysband of many women.”

Luna had phrased it this way deliberately, but the truth wasn’t far off. Once the news of Thomas looking for a marriage candidate got out, many noble ladies were indeed captivated by it.

Thomas had once been such a dashing and handsome figure. Even though he was now older–in his late twenties–he was still a hero who had made significant contributions to the kingdom. Young women naturally admired heroes like him.

“No way! That’s impossible! He promised me!” Viola covered her ears, and screamed, “How could he go back on his word?”

“Viola, you’re pregnant. You mustn’t get too worked up, Luna said calmly.

“How can not be? He’s my husband!” Viol

snapped.

Luna gently reminded her, “Your husband now is Barrett.”

“Shut up!” Viola had never thought much of Luna, and now every word seemed to stab her in the heart. Who are you to talk about my relationship with him?”

Luna was no longer willing to endure Viola’s treatment of her, and responded coldly, “Then don’t ask me. Go and replace out for yourself.”

Viola shot her a fierce glare before turning her gaze away, her voice trembling with desperation. “Mom, please go to the Farrell family and ask him for me. Ask him what’s going on! He promised me!”

Evelyn’s breathing became labored with anger. “You…you shameless girl! Get out of here!”

“Mom!” Viola fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face. “I can’t go on like this anymore! You and Zoey were the ones who forced me to marry! The Warren family is a pit of misery. I can’t stay there any longer! Do you want me to die there? Are you really that heartless?”

Hearing how twisted and manipulative Viola’s words were, Evelyn felt both furious and heartbroken. Tears began to stream down her face as she closed her eyes

How could her daughter have become so unhinged?

With trembling hands, she pointed towards the door. “Get out!”
