After all, Melanie had personally chosen Barrett as her son-in-law. How could he be anything less than worthy? Timothy stepped forward, patting Barrett on the shoulder with a hearty laugh. "General Warren, it's good to finally meet you! You're a lucky man to have married such a fine woman." Owen also smiled and said, "Congratulations, General Warren. You and your wife have both achieved great things. You're sure to bring new glory to the Warren family." "General Warren, your wife is brave and fierce. She puts us men to shame!" Timothy added.
Barrett was stunned. They all knew about his marriage to Aurora? These were Hector's former subordinates, yet they were congratulating him on marrying Aurora?.
Puzzled but cautious not to speak out of turn, he simply smiled slightly. "Thank you, generals.".
Aurora felt a sense of pride. It seemed their marriage had indeed gained the respect of the military leaders. Naturally, a general should be paired with a female warrior to have a strong union. Carissa, with her traditional and reserved demeanor, could only bask in the glory brought by men. Aurora assumed the blood- soaked front- line generals understood this well.
Aurora smiled and bowed slightly. "You all flatter me. How can I compare to the esteemed generals here? The triumph at Victory Pass was due to luck, not because of my bravery." Her words left everyone momentarily stunned.

Timothy looked at Aurora in confusion, but still praised, "General Yates, your reputation precedes you. You've contributed much to the triumph at Victory Pass." 1 Aurora's eyes briefly flashed with pride, but she maintained her humble demeanor and said, "You're far too kind." Timothy chuckled and turned his attention away from Aurora, giving Barrett a friendly shove. "Why are you! just standing there? You see your wife and don't even greet her? She's been injured and hasn't fully recovered yet." "You're injured?" Barrett exclaimed in shock.
"I'm not!" Aurora replied.
Everyone was stunned by their exchange.
What was going on? The group looked at Barrett, then at Carissa, who was partially hidden by Dylan.
Carissa stepped forward and calmly said, "General Warren, General Yates, it's good that you have finally arrived E with reinforcements." "Carissa? Barrett looked at her in surprise. "What are you doing here?"
Aurora's face also changed as she realized that the compliments M directed at Barrett's wife" were meant for Carissa and not her.
Aurora quickly took Barrett's arm and smiled at Carissa. "So, Lady Sinclair, you're here too. But But why didntybu inform everyone about your divorce from Barrett? It has caused quite a misunderstanding." BIG SALE: 3500 bonus free fou you
