Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

In front of them, Travis reiterated, "From now on, in the prince's residence, you must call me by my name. I'm Travis-not Rod, not Troublemaker, and definitely not Shit Stick!"

Violet shrugged. "You've been known as Rod for a long time. But if it makes you happy to be called Travis, then so be it. In our hearts, you'll always be just a rod."

Carissa instructed someone to take Leah and Alana to freshen up, and then to buy a few sets of clothing. They would head to Gracehold Estate early the next morning.

Since Rowan had asked Violet to deliver a prescription to Margaret at Ironridge Estate, they would need to pass by Valor Estate. As they passed Valor Estate, Violet peeked through the curtain but saw nothing unusual, so she ignored it.

After delivering the prescription to the steward at Ironridge Estate, they didn't linger and quickly proceeded to Gracehold Estate.

In the carriage, Carissa went over the important points with Leah and Alana about what to be aware of once they entered the residence.

"We don't take the initiative to hit anyone, or make the first move. However, do not let that courtesan concubine approach the duchess. If Mr. Langley comes to the duchess' room to vent his anger and causes her to be heartbroken, you need to escort him out.

"And remember, if there is any urgent situation that you cannot handle or is difficult to manage, ensure that one of you stays with the duchess while the other comes to inform me immediately." Carissa provided detailed instructions, and advised Leah and Alana to minimize contact with the other people in the residence.

Although Carissa believed that Abigail wouldn't harm Leona, she was wary that the family might look down on martial people. Thus, it was unnecessary for Leah and Alana to worry about the others' opinions while carrying out their duty.
