Isolde answered calmly, “This is the medicine Oliver gave me. It clears the poison and clears the mind.”

Clark looked at her, saying, “This Oliver seems very kind to you.”

Isolde smiled, “Yes, he is.”

Indeed, Oliver had always been kind to her. From the first reckless act to saving lives at Wolf Mountain, their bond was forged through life–and–death experiences.

She wondered… what had happened to him now? Doug had gone to Zloimond, and she had no way of knowing. It left her feeling sad.

At that moment, Hattie returned.

Entering the room, she sneered, “They’ve harmed both themselves and others. Serves that bastard right.”

Isolde asked, “What happened?”

Hattie sat down and said angrily, “Those bastards, that brother and sister, tried to ruin Clark’s reputation. They brought in a brothel girl to with her and catch them in the act. I thought I could just beat them up and rescue him, but that little bastard went to the bathroom alone. I knocked him out, dragged him back to the room, and swapped him out for Clark. Then I beat that woman up. Now, that little bastard is beaten to a pulp, and a crowd has gathered to watch. His reputation is ruined, and within three days, all of Argentum will know.”

The group listened, feeling a great sense of satisfaction.

Isolde looked at Clark and said, “Clark, your grandmother will certainly investigate this. When she asks, tell her you were drunk and don’t remember anything. I’ll take responsibility for this.”

Clark shook his head. “No, Isolde, I’m not afraid. At most, I’ll move out.”

“Don’t be foolish,” Isolde replied, shaking her head. “You’ve just started your position, and now there’s a scandal at home. This will definitely affect your reputation. You’re a scholar, and they care deeply about these things like propriety.”

Esme added, “Yes, Clark, listen to County Princess. You really shouldn’t get involved in this. Prudence has always had it out for County Princess. One more issue or one less, it makes no difference.”

Clark’s eyes welled up with tears, and he looked at Isolde, his emotions overflowing. He didn’t know what to say in response.

Isolde gently spoke, “Clark, siblings should look out for each other. Don’t say anything more. Go rest now.”
