Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1625

This was the first real trial in Thomas and Rosalind's marriage.

The sweet days were suddenly mixed with bitter medicine.

Such a matter required Thomas to make a decision. When he received the news,

he hurried home without delay. He didn't even stop to greet his mother and went

straight to Rosalind's room.

shivering for a moment outside, he warmed his hands by the fire before daring to

do that again. If you feel unwell, you must tell me at once."

With his return, Rosalind felt steadier and more at ease.

But when Thomas saw how thin she had grown, tears filled his eyes. "I've let you

suffer. It's my fault. I have not taken good care of you."

As she laid her head against his chest and listened to his strong heartbeat, the

worries and sadness of recent days slowly began to fade.

she said.

one can take my place by your side." Thomas gently stroked her back. "I
