Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Lulu brought over the dowry list and explained, “This year alone, you’ve spent over six thousand silver coins to support the household. However, the shops, houses, and estates remain untouched. All the bank savings, along with the property deeds and land titles your mother left, are locked up in the chest.”

Carissa glanced at the list. “Alright.”

Just looking at the list put her in a melancholy mood. Her mother had given her such a substantial dowry, fearing she would suffer hardships in her husband’s home.

“My lady, where can we go? Are we returning to Northwatch Estate? Or should we go back to Meadow Ridge?” Lulu asked, looking distressed.

Images of the bloodstained estate and the tragic deaths of her family members flashed through Carissa’s mind, causing a sudden pang of pain in her heart.

“Anywhere is better than staying here.”

“If you leave, you’ll be giving them exactly what they want.”

“So be it. If I stay, I’ll spend my whole life suffering as I watch those two be affectionate. Lulu, I must live well to give my parents and brothers peace in the afterlife,” Carissa replied calmly.
