At Carissa’s words, both Wayne and Fiona’s expressions shifted slightly, as if they hadn’t expected her to deny that the woman was Violet

Carissa turned her gaze toward Fiona and changed the topic. “It seems your earlier comments were a bit odd, Lady Fiona. Why should I thank you? What relationship does that woman have with me?”

Fiona’s expression stiffened, and she faltered. Well… then, Your Grace, you have even less reason to be holding His Highness hostage. We’re all family, and making a scene like this doesn’t do anyone any favors.”

Carissa smiled, but it was a cold one.

Wayne was about to speak, but Carissa interrupted, “They’ve been staying outside the city all this time, so how did they come to know Violet? Judging by their martial arts skills, are they perhaps the estate’s guards? Why are these guards dressed in black? Is there something shady going on?”
