Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 320

Helen thought it over, and realized that it made sense.

Even though Rafael was on the battlefield at the time, if he had truly wanted to stop the marriage, it shouldn't have been too difficult, right?

But she failed to consider the vast distances involved. Even if Carissa had married and had children, Rafael might not have known about it. She also didn't realize the dangers he faced on the battlefield, where he was focused on winning the war. He had assumed Melanie would keep her promise, so he didn't worry about it and only wanted to secure victory and return to the capital as quickly as possible. Unaware of these details, Helen simply felt that having Carissa as her daughter-in-law was a blemish on her otherwise perfect life. Her emotions were conflicted. She was happy that her son was getting married, but unhappy that he was marrying Carissa.

Meanwhile, preparations were also underway at Valor Estate and Silverstone Estate for tomorrow's grand event.

This would be Barrett's third marriage, but his feelings about marrying Viola were vastly different from those he had experienced in his previous marriages.

When he married Carissa, he was overjoyed. He felt that to have someone as pure and graceful as her as his wife was a blessing he had earned over three lifetimes. Even on their wedding day, when he received the orders to go to war, his heart was still full of happiness. But that happiness was mixed with an even greater sense of reluctance. When he lifted her white veil and saw how stunning Carissa was in her wedding attire, his heart nearly melted.

At that moment, his promises were sincere. He vowed never to let her down.

But, unfortunately, he missed his chance with Carissa.
