Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Taken aback, Amelia asked, "Were you really invited? Or is it a lie? After all, you're also from our family. Why would she invite you?"

"Why wouldn't she? Not everyone from our family is heartless," Charlotte said with great pleasure and satisfaction. "Go back and tell Serena so that she'll tell Rebecca. Let her stew over it a bit." Amelia smiled wryly. "Aunt Charlotte, are you and my mother-in-law truly at such odds?"

Charlotte sneered. "Who's at odds with her? I just can't stand her greed, ruthlessness, and ingratitude. Amelia, let me tell you something you might not want to hear-you're foolish. You can't even tell who's good to you and who's not."

"How could I not tell? Aunt Charlotte, you know my own family is not supportive, my husband doesn't care much for me, and my mother-in-law looks down on me. What can I do?" Amelia replied.

"You may not be able to do much, but don't aid their schemes," Charlotte said firmly. "Your mother-in-law, Viola, Aurora, and your youngest sister-in-law are all terrible people. They all want to make things difficult for Carissa. Just don't help them."

"Amelia, sometimes pretending to be deaf and dumb can be quite useful," Charlotte said with a meaningful look.

Amelia was somewhat slow on the uptake, so it took a while for her to understand.

Finally, she said, "Recently, I've been feeling unwell. I need to rest for a while."

Charlotte smiled. "Go ahead, then. Call a physician to check on you. Let them cause their own troubles, and don't worry about anything else."
