Her Majestic Battle Cry

Chapter 1106

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.

“Then, I apologize. It turns out this was a misunderstanding.” She didn’t release Yuvan, but kept her gaze fixed on Fiona. “However, why were these men in black staying near the western mountain pass? Are they from Prince Yuvan’s household?”

“Yes, they escorted His Highness back to the capital. Edgeview Estate couldn’t accommodate so many, so they were placed outside the city,” Fiona replied.

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?”
