Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 635

"How is Leona doing now? Is the baby really gone?" Rafael asked.

"Yes. She almost bled out, but luckily, Sebastian was here. She survived, but it'll take her at least a year and a half to recover. She's fast asleep now, but I'm afraid she'll be heartbroken once she wakes up," Carissa replied, her voice heavy with sorrow. Rafael sighed. "She carried the baby for nine months. I'm sure she will be."

Carissa's complexion paled. "She nearly lost her life too. Raf, we can't let Samuel get away with this. He needs to spend a few years in prison at the very least."

"Leave it to me," said the prince.

Watching his wife stand there, delicate yet strong against the autumn wind, a pang of sadness welled up in his heart. When Leona was giving birth, Carissa must have been terrified of losing her cousin.

Rafael's gaze turned icy.

"Let's wait until Leona is away from here before we take action," Carissa suggested. "We don't want to complicate things. If we arrest Samuel now, a horde of people will surely rush to Leona. I don't want her to be disturbed."

"Alright. I'll head back to the Supreme Court for now. Once you take Leona away tomorrow, I'll send someone to arrest Samuel. He harmed his legitimate wife and caused their child to die in her womb. Him pushing Leona down the stairs is considered attempted murder of a royal relative. That's more than enough to arrest him," said Rafael.
