"You're insane!" Gregory was furious. "They're all bound! If we don't get the authorities to interrogate them to find out who sent them, we can't eliminate future threats!"

Aurora looked up, her gaze locking with Carissa's in midair. Her eyes were a mix of complexity and malice as she gritted her teeth.

"You're a discarded woman the Warren family cast out. What right do you have to come back here?"

Carissa observed Aurora's bloodied face, and her frown deepened. "Did you think they were Westhaven spies? What an idiot."

Aurora's expression shifted slightly, her eyes filled with even more venom. Yes, she was worried that they could be Westhaven spies. If they were tortured by the Royal Citadel and the local authorities, they might reveal information about Fawnrun City. Right now, she was still hoping for the best since the king had yet to punish her.

But if the matter was discovered through interrogation by the local authorities...

Aurora couldn't afford to gamble on it.

Carissa could tell exactly what Aurora was thinking, and it made her feel exposed and humiliated.

Moments later, Michael arrived with the Capital Guards. When he saw Carissa, he saluted.

"Greetings, Deputy Commander Sinclair."

"The assassins are dead. Take care of the rest," Carissa said, dragging her Rose Spear as she turned to leave without looking back.
