Her Majestic Battle Cry 597

Chapter 597

Viola cried out, “I don’t care! What reputation do I have left? You’ve probably heard about the Warren family. I’ve walked straight into a den of wolves! Thomas, you owe me this! If you were alive, why didn’t you send me a letter? Even after receiving the divorce letter, I’ve remained a widow for you at my family’s home.

“If it weren’t for Mrs. Murray’s matchmaking, I would still be a widow for you. I was trapped at my family’s house, and was completely powerless. My sister–in–law looked down on me, and was eager to marry me off. When Mrs. Murray came to talk about a marriage, I didn’t have a chance to refuse her!”

Hearing her words twisted his heart. Thomas had been struggling with his feelings for days. It wasn’t just because his wife had remarried; it was also the sorrow and pain his mom and family felt over his “death“. His mom had even fallen ill because of it, though her health had improved recently.

He kept telling himself that loyalty and devotion were often at odds; but deep down, he felt he had let his family down. He wanted desperately to make amends, but living like he used to felt impossible. Even at home, he remained in the same tense state as when he was a spy.

On top of that, the king had entrusted him with significant responsibilities. How could he manage when he couldn’t even hold his life together, let alone meet the king’s expectations?

The sleepless nights and mounting frustration drove him to practice swordplay here, seeking even a fleeting sense of peace.

Now, Viola’s accusations made him feel as if he had betrayed another person.

But all he could say to her was, “I’m sorry. I’ve let you down.”
