Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 1046

Chapter 1046

Carissa and Violet escorted Giles to Ironridge Estate.

Following Emma’s passing, Margaret’s health deteriorated further. She remained bedridden after the funeral, unable to rise.

When Carissa arrived, Margaret had just taken her medicine and was lying propped up in bed. Serena stood by, tending to her.

Though Serena didn’t look up at Carissa, a storm of emotions stirred inside her.

It was because when Carissa arrived, she had announced she come to deal with Jessica’s issue and had brought Giles along.

Serena harbored a deep hatred for Carissa. She could never forgive Carissa for what had happened. No matter how much she hated Carissa, however, Serena couldn’t help but fear Carissa. With Carissa’s current position and power, taking down a lowly concubine from Ironridge Estate would be as easy as breathing.

Margaret had rejected Carissa’s invitation once before, but now, Carissa had shown up after the funeral had just concluded. Margaret knew this was because Jessica’s situation had dragged down Skye Embroidery, and the issue had to be resolved sooner or later.

As Carissa entered, Margaret took the handkerchief Serena handed her and wiped the medicine from the corner of her mouth.

“You’ve come because of Jessica, haven’t you? I’m so sorry to trouble you. You can just drive Jessica out. I’ll send someone to take care of her at the estate,” she said weakly.

Margaret had lost a lot of weight. Her eye sockets were sunken, and her skin was pale with faint yellowish patches. The darkened circles on her only emphasized her worn–out appearance, and she seemed devoid of any energy. Her once serene and dignified presence was completely gone.
