Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1299

Before dawn, the carriages from Redstone Manor set off.

The manor's guards saw Oliver off, as he had previously insisted on personally escorting Celeste and their young son.

The procession slowly began to move forward.

Originally, there were only five carriages. But after leaving the manor, several more joined them. These were arranged by Carl ahead of time. Now, Carl and his men rode ahead on their warhorses, clearing the path.

It didn't matter if they were spotted-Oliver and his men were just seeing them off and would return afterward.

But when night fell and Oliver had still not returned, the manor's guards began to grow anxious. They hurried to find Louis and Timothy.

However, the manor's guards couldn't find them. Louis and Timothy had left the manor not long after the dinner last night, only to begin feeling dizzy and vomiting soon after. As they didn't share the same room, the guards attending them assumed it was simply the result of drinking too much, so they had the kitchen prepare some hangover soup.

After drinking the soup, they continued to vomit. Once they were done, they felt a little better and fell asleep.
