Chapter 94

Carissa returned to the city after midnight, only to find Aurora waiting for her at the city gate. The distant glow of a campfire illuminated Aurora’s face, which was twisted in anger and disdain.

“Can’t you at least put in a bit more effort to save your dignity? You’ve tarnished the reputation of the Duke of Northwatch’s family beyond repair,” Aurora taunted.

Carissa looked up and icily replied, “What does my family’s reputation have to do with you?”

Aurora’s eyes narrowed, her resolve clearly wavering. “What are you implying?”

“Nothing much.”
