Her Majestic Battle Cry

Chapter 1131

Silverstone Estate was in chaos.

Riley had slapped Viola across the face several times. Aside from the patients in Arcane Sanctum, passersby also witnessed the scene and stopped to stare.

Poppy mentioned that amidst the confusion, someone had shouted that a princess consort was inside Arcane Sanctum, advising everyone to stop before they acted disrespectfully.

Zoey was surprised at first, but then realized the princess consort in question must be Carissa, who frequently visited Arcane Sanctum. But no matter which princess consort it was, the news had already spread. The reputation of the Earl of Silverstone’s family was now completely ruined.

Zoey took a moment to drink a cup of coffee in the outer courtyard. She sat there for quite a while before finally going to see her mother–in–law.

Evelyn grabbed Zoey’s hand, tearfully pleading, “Just tell me what we can do. We have to cover this up somehow, or find Mrs. Lewis and give her whatever she wants. Let her clear things up and say it was all a misunderstanding. Only then can we put an end to this.”

Zoey listened, knowing that though Evelyn was distraught, she had already thought through a few options. This was the only one that might work. She glanced at Luna, who sat quietly beside her with a flat look on her face, already numb from the ordeal.

Luna and Caspian were a loving couple with children. As a family, their fortunes were tied -this scandal would affect them all. Even if the matter was too shameful to mention directly, no one could bear to talk about it openly. Luna felt powerless, so she simply waited to see how her elder sister–in–law would handle it.
