Two days later, Frederick arrived at Valor Estate with two guards in tow.

Since Aurora returned home the previous day, she had been suffering from a high fever. She had called for a physician that night and taken medicine. Though she managed to sleep, her nightmares persisted. Only today was she starting to feel a bit better.

However, she hadn't given the promissory note much thought, dismissing it as just another attempt by Carissa to humiliate her. To Carissa, fifty silver coins were nothing-why would she truly come to collect them?

But Frederick had indeed come to claim the money.

When Aurora was informed of Frederick's arrival, she felt a deep sense of embarrassment, as if she were burning with fever again.

Barrett was at home today as he wasn't on duty. He had no idea that Aurora had caused a scene at Northwatch Estate a few days prior.

He hadn't even noticed her leaving-they had been arguing frequently, so he had been staying in the study. His visits to the residential area were merely to oversee the renovations of Grace Mansion to prepare for the arrival of his new bride.

When he heard that someone from Northwatch Estate had come to collect a debt, he initially thought it was a matter of old accounts. He asked Frederick to meet him in the study, hoping to avoid alarming his mother.
