Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 770

Carissa shoved Jessica forward, releasing her.

Her tone was icy when she spoke, “You’ll answer my questions truthfully. If you refuse to cooperate, you won’t get a third chance, and I’ll take you straight to the Supreme Court. Your mother has already been demoted to a commoner.

“His Majesty has been merciful enough to allow you to keep your title, but if you don’t cooperate, your involvement in Camille’s death will be reported to the highest authority. A county duchess charged with murder? Who could possibly protect you then?”

Jessica’s left arm hung awkwardly at her side, dislocated and sending sharp pain through her body, making her eyes well with tears. Though she loathed Carissa, she also understood that the woman meant business–she was ruthless.

Leopold stepped forward to support Jessica as she sank back into her seat. His voice was cold and steady as he said, “Commander Sinclair is carrying out her orders. Just answer her questions.”

He didn’t care for Jessica’s wellbeing, but if she was to be taken away, it would be after he officially divorced her. He couldn’t let her be dragged through the public streets while she still had the title of the Marquis of Ironridge’s wife.

“I didn’t kill her!” Jessica yelled, her fury boiling over. “I just told my servants to slap her a few times. She ran into a wall by herself!”

Jessica raised her right hand to shield her face, breaking down into sobs.

“How was I supposed to know she’d run into a wall? That wasn’t the first time I’ve had someone beaten. ‘I’ve done it before without them killing themselves. I only had them slap her to blow off some steam, and it was all your fault! If you hadn’t fought with me, I wouldn’t have gone back to Harmony Palace in such a foul mood!”
