Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1011

Carissa thought back to how Jessica had been so desperate that she had to pick up a few coins. It was clear she was now at her wit's end.

However, the situation had grown increasingly complicated. While Jessica's original intent was merely to get back at Flora's mom, the outcome was far more severe-Flora ended up losing her child. As if that wasn't enough, Jessica later pushed Serena into a lake, fully aware that the latter couldn't swim. This meant Jessica's actions weren't accidental. Her malicious intent toward Serena was clear.

Carissa frowned slightly. "What I don't understand is how Jessica could be so stupid. She's no longer a duchess and she's not even respected at Ironridge Estate. Her mom's imprisoned and her dad's dead, yet she's still causing trouble. Is she trying to ruin her life on purpose?"
