At some point, rumors began circulating in the city about Aurora being captured as a prisoner of war and violated by Westhaven soldiers.

Originally, after returning from the Southern Frontier, similar rumors had surfaced, but stated that she had been captured by Sandorian soldiers instead. Back then, the gossip had been quickly suppressed. This time, however, after the apology to the matriarch of the Marquis of Jadehill's family, no more dung was thrown at the Warren family's residence. Yet, the story about Aurora being captured and violated had become increasingly notorious.

The rumor spread with such force that within just a few days, it had swept across the entire city and was sure to spill over beyond its borders.

Even Hell Monarch Estate was abuzz with discussions about the matter. Carissa found it odd that this issue, which had been buried for so long, was suddenly being brought up again and causing such a stir throughout the city.

Could there have been a leak from the military? However, the Mystic Army was well-trained, so such matters should not have leaked out.

When Rafael returned from the Supreme Court, Carissa asked him about it.

Rafael sat down and took a sip of coffee, frowning as he said, "The rumors are being deliberately spread. I received news only yesterday that Westhaven's third prince has been officially declared the crown prince."

"Westhaven's third prince?" Carissa repeated.

She recalled that the third prince, Edmund, had come to the Southern Frontier battlefield seeking revenge for Westhaven's late crown prince, Arthur.

Edmund, who remembered the massacre of Fawnrun City's civilians, harbored a deep hatred for Aurora. While that incident was something both kingdoms had tried hard to conceal, Edmund might not share the same mindset.
