Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Carissa continued to entertain the guests, but privately instructed Violet to keep an eye on everyone, especially those with ulterior motives.

Violet observed two young women who frequently exchanged glances with Eleanor. After noting their details, she approached Lily to inquire about them.

Lily was assisting with the arrangements inside. After identifying the two women, she came out and told Violet, "The one in the yellow dress is from Lady Ruth's natal family, but I don't know her name. The one in the violet dress is from the late Lady Chloe's natal family, and her name is Renee. She is exceptionally talented and beautiful. People often compare her to Queen Kylie. Queen Kylie's talents were once unrivaled in the capital."

Violet made a mental note of that. When Carissa emerged, Violet informed her of the two women's identities.

Carissa understood immediately. Both Ruth and the late noble concubine, Chloe, had connections to Eleanor and Yuvan. They were clearly trying to insert their own people into Hell Monarch Estate. They had brought Serena here to cause trouble for Rafael.

It seemed they couldn't allow Yuvan to stay in Valken anymore. He needed to be brought back to the capital, where he could be watched closely.

It was also time to settle the score with him for what happened to Avis.

After the banquet, Rafael held Carissa's hand as they saw off the guests at the main entrance. Together, they made a stunning pair-the prince was handsome and noble, while the princess consort was beautiful and elegant.

The guests couldn't help but admire the pair, thinking that they were indeed a perfect match made in heaven.
