Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 195

Chapter 195

Upon hearing Eleanor mention Carissa, Rebecca’s heart was thrown into turmoil. She was unaware of the past between Eleanor and Melanie, and assumed that Carissa’s recent achievements had made her valued by the royal family.

Did this mean Eleanor was now favoring Carissa? Et the gentle expression on Eleanor’s face suggested otherwise.

At a loss, Rebecca heard Isabella Miller, who was seated nearby, speak up.

“Your Highness, all this talk of devotion is just for show. After the divorce, Carissa ignored her former mother–in–law’s wellbeing. Where is the so–called devotion in that? Anyone can put on a show. Rebecca made such a scene at Northwatch Estate. If she weren’t forced into a corner, who would want to be embarrassed like that?” she said.

Isabella was the queen’s sister–in–law, and her husband held a third- rank official position, making him a key figure in court.
