When they arrived at the villa, Harlan was waiting outside. Seeing Isolde, his eyes filled with anger. “I never thought you could be so heartless. He’s already in such a state, and yet you still want to send him to his death?”

“You know?” Isolde raised her hand, signaling Hattie and Hazel to secure the carriage.

Harlan was furious. “Of course, I know! Your father didn’t hide it from me. You’re quite clever, Lady Isolde, sending me away while persuading your father to go to his death. Even if you hate him, you could have just stayed away. Why must it come to this? His body can’t withstand any punishment now–even a single strike could kill him. How can you be so cruel?”

“He agreed to it,” Isolde replied without explanation, nor did she wish to argue with Harlan. Hattie and Hazel finished tying the carriage and approached, and the three of them entered the villa.

Harlan wanted to continue persuading her, but Hattie held his hand. “Hey, Harlan, if Lady Isolde truly wanted to harm him, why would she bother with all this?

“Sending him to the palace is sending him to his death! In such cold weather, with his body so weak!” Harlan’s eyes reddened. Deep down, he didn’t believe Isolde could be so cruel. He knew this might be a necessary measure, but how could Geoffrey’s frail body endure such an ordeal?

Inside, Geoffrey had already risen, and several thorny branches lay beside him.

He was bare–chested, his emaciated body exposed. The cold weather had turned his lips purple.

When he saw Isolde enter, he straightened his neck, trying to appear more dignified, and forced a smile. “I’m ready. Just need to carry the thorns, and we can set off.”

Isolde looked at his pale face and purple lips. “Wait. Put on some clothes first,” she said, then turned and walked out.

“Lady Isolde, what are you doing?” Hazel followed her out.

“I’ll make some ginger soup.

“Let me do it. You should talk to Geoffrey,” Hazel offered.

Isolde shook her head. “No, I’ll do it.”

She had nothing to say to him, nor did she want to see him in such a pitiful state.

Drinking ginger soup could make one’s body heat up and drive away the cold.

Ginger soup could warm the body and drive away the cold. Alcohol could too, but since they were he to the palace, drinking was out of the question.
