“Who wouldn't be infuriated by such behavior? It’s only because Carissa is younger that she put up with Lady
Heather. If | were there, I'd have slapped her a few times myself!
“Hurry, get the kitchen chefs to prepare ssweet treats- No, better yet, go buy an assortment of pastries
from the best bakery in the capital. Cheer Carissa up. Don’t let her stay angry and make herself ill over such
spineless people. It's not worth it to ruin her health over them.”
Helen’s maid, Mindy, hurriedly prepared to buy the treats, but Violet said, “I'll go. I'm quick on my feet.”
“Yes, you should go, Violet,” Helen said anxiously.
She had seen her daughter-in-law angry before, but this time, Carissa’s frustration with Heather was something
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe couldn't express. It was like when Helen was extremely annoyed with her sister but dared
not show it.
No, it wasn’t quite the same. Victoria was reasonable and had Helen's best interests at heart, whereas Heather
didn’t even care about her own daughter. How could Heather compare to Victoria?
Even after returning to Orchid Hall, Carissa was still fuming and couldn't calm down.
Was it because they were afraid of being sent to their fief that they had to be so humble? They were even willing
to discard the dignity of a prince and make Leona suffer as they did?
Carissa couldn't understand. People said that a mother should be strong, but Heather was not. Instead, she was
even weaker than ordinary people. Her parents’ weakness directly contributed to Leona’s soft nature, leaving her
unable to stand firm even as a duchess
As Carissa was fuming, she heard footsteps outside. Looking up, she saw Violet entering with Helen's arm linked
through hers. Violet carried a red box in her other hand.
Carissa stood up and asked, “Mother, what brings you here?”
Violet placed the box on the table and smiled. “Lady Helen was worried you'd make yourself ill with anger. She
askedto get an assortment of pastries from the best bakery in the capital. A little sweetness will surely lift
your spirits.”
With that, Violet opened the box and began to take out the treats one at a time. While the kitchen chef made
great pastries, the old, renowned bakery in the capital made even better ones.
Carissa couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at the delicious and beautiful pastries. Still, she was somewhat
touched.

“Thank you, Mother. Ill have
Carissa picked up a pastry and put it in her mouth. Despite her frustration, which made everything taste like
wax, she still nodded and smiled when Helen asked if it was good.
“It’s delicious.”

The pastries themselves weren't rare-what was valuable was her mother-in-law’s thoughtfulness. Knowing
Carissa was upset, Helen had bought pastries to cheer her up.
Seeing her daughter-in-law smile, Helen also grinned and said, “There’s no point in getting worked up over
someone like that. She doesn’t have a spine to speak of. So what if they get sent to their fief? Life there would be
much more carefree. Living like this, barely scraping by, is worse than going to their fief!”
“Their life in the capital isn’t great either. They live in a subdued manner, always deferring to others, and they
don’t dare challenge even an earl’s household. What's the point of living such a pitiful existence?” said Violet,
who also struggled to understand.
Besides,” Helen continued, “the cold and desolate land isn’t so terrible. Didn't her father, General Jominic, spend
half his life stationed in such a place? What's there to complain about? And when a prince oes to a fief, it's far
from the king's reach. Life there is bound to be much freer and more enjoyable. With money and rank, that's
living in indulgence.”
arissa explained, “It's not that simple. Once at their fief, they can’t return to the capital without a immons.
Though the king is relatively lenient now and allows occasional returns, going to such a mote fief means a
complete departure from the circles of power in the capital.

what kind of good matches can their other children hope for?”
eing her daughter-in-law’s expression darken again, Helen quickly said, “Forget about those people. elling on
them just leaves you feeling drained.”
