Chapter 1344

Although it wasn’t proper, Carissa had someone buy two pots of meat porridge before Zoey returned to her cell. She told Zoey that it was a gesture of thanks from the common people, to repay her for her years of distributing

food

This time, Zoey was moved to tears. She wished so much that her children could have a bowl of hot porridge, even if just a small spoonful.

After leaving the Supreme Court, Carissa paused for a moment before instructing Jacob to spread the story of the supposedly donated porridge.

Once, people had spoken highly of Zoey’s charity. Over time, however, the talks had dwindled. Now, Carissa saw an opportunity to reignite that warmth, using this small act of kindness to revive Zoey’s image.

Naturally, Jacob spun the tale a little more, embellishing it with compassion. He spoke of a man who had once been a starving refugee from the outskirts of the capital. He had been barely alive, eating the porridge at the charity stalls for several days. Before he left the city, the stall attendants had given him a package of dry rations.

Now, the man had heard of Zoey’s misfortune. Although his life was still hard, he had traveled to the capital, bringing with him two pots of hot meat porridge as a token of his gratitude, and begged to have it sent to the prison for his benefactor.

Randall, the one in charge of Astral Prison, was moved when he heard the full story. He made an exception and allowed Zoey’s family to receive the meat porridge.

The story of gratitude spread through the streets, quickly fling every comer of the city. The talk turned once more to the Earl of Silverstone’s family and Zoey’s strength of character. People began to speak of her again, pitying her and condemning the treatment she had received
