Chapter 748 As Violet watched Carmen explode in anger, she felt an inexplicable shift within herself.
Since following Carissa to the battlefield and returning to the capital to face a pile of messy issues, Violet's patience had improved considerably.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the past, Violet would have likely stormed off if Carmen had spoken to her this way. She never cared about other people's feelings and was always so headstrong, but now she wanted to be a better person.
Violet could understand Carmen's anger and fear. Carmen had been used by her own family all this tand hadn't received an ounce of trust. She had viewed Henry, her mom, and her sister as her family, a united front. Yet Henry had betrayed her, and now she was being told that Celeste wanted to harm their mom.
To make it worse, Carmen had to hear this from an outsider. It was only natural she wouldn't believe it. Wanting to be understanding, Violet remained calm. "Regardless of whether you believe it or not, the fact remains. Billy's testimony can't be false. It wouldn't escape the scrutiny of the officials at the SuprCourt. As for how your sister commanded him, she slept with him." Carmen trembled all over, tears welling in her eyes. "Shut up! How can you insult my sister like that? Just because she was a courtesan? She had no choice! She's been suffering enough already, and you still want to slander her and drive a wedge between us!" "Whether you believeor not is up to you, I've told you what I know, and my responsibility ends here. If you ever want to borrow money for your business, just cto me. I can lend you three hundred silver coins," Violet offered.
Violet hailed from wealth, and she often measured friendships in terms of money. This was a practice rooted in the Spencer family, a lesson she had learned from sinfluential figures.
For Carissa, there were no limits-whatever she needed, be it a loan or a gift, Violet was willing to provid But for Travis, Violet wouldn't part with even a single coin-not after today's confrontation.
Carmen had cooperated with Violet before, so three hundred silver coins seemed worth the investment. Carmen replied coldly, "I don't need it. You can leave. My family's affairs are none of your business. Just go!" Violet met her gaze. "I'll leave once Ivy arrives." "No need for that!" Carmen's expression was frigid. "I can't bear your good intentions. I don't understand your schemes, but you won't cbetween my family and me." "Is there something wrong with your brain?" It was true that Violet was more patient than before, but even she had her limits.

Look at you-you're broke and have no idea about anything going on in Harmony Palace. You don't even know which of your sisters are acting as spies in which families.

"And let's talk about how we deceived you about the plan during the Emberfest Festival. If we hadn't done that you would have blabbed everything to your dad. Then, that spineless man would have spilled everything to Grand Princess Eleanor. "Would our plan have worked if that happened? Would we have been able to rescue your thom and the other women? Do you care more about the process or the outcome? The fact that your mom is now safely rescued is what matters to you, right?
*We had no choice but to deceive you. If you trusted your dad less, we wouldn't have had to hide things. from you, we had told you that Lord If Henry was an opportunist back then, would you have believed us? No, don't bother thinking of a comeback. You definitely wouldn't have believed it.
"It's just like how I'm telling you now that your sister slept with Billy to bribe him to harm your mom you Ve won't believe that either. So, there's nothing more to say. I'll leave once Ivy arrives. Consider it asfulfilling what Cari asked of me." X
