Chapter 274 In the evening, Rafael cto visit Ryan. His words of comfort were more effective than those of Rowan or Carissa.
Rafael's reassurance was simple and direct: A true man must learn the way of patience and endurance." Upon hearing this, Ryan immediately felt at ease, accepting the treatment calmly and obediently.
Rafael spent half an hour with him, practicing writing. Ryan's handwriting had improved significantly. The flexibility of his fingers had increased, and his progress was gratifying.
Clearly, Ryan was quite talkative. While Rafael accompanied him, he asked numerous questions, all trivial and conversational in nature.
Rafael patiently answered every question, no matter how inconsequential.

Rafael now occasionally dined at Northwatch Estate. Lily had figured out his food preferences-he wasn't particularly fond of sweets but could tolerate them, and he wasn't keen on spicy food, though he always insisted on enduring it for Carissa's sake.
His appetite was substantial-he could conssix plates of rice in one meal, with no particular preference for meat or vegetables. In other words, he wasn't picky. about food.
Initially, his large appetite went unnoticed. The first the dined at Northwatch Estate, he ate only one plate of rice and refused to take more, no matter what was said.
On the second visit, he reluctantly had half a plate more.
By the third time, he praised the flavor of the beef stew and ended up eating three plates of rice.
Now, he was up to eating six plates of rice in a meal. The entire household was speculating whether six plates was his limit, or if it was just enough to make him half- full. They wondered if he would eventually eat seven or eight plates.

That was a total of two hours daily, and he was also with his duties at the SuprCourt. After that, everyone understood Rafael's large appetite.
After all, who wouldn't need to eat more after a day of such strenuous work? Even Carissa, when practicing martial arts, could easily consthree plates in one meal.
After dinner, Carissa watched as Ryan took his medicine. The liquid was as black as ink, and Ryan swallowed it in one go under his aunt's watchful eye.
Carissa smiled and put a candied fruit in Ryan's mouth, saying, "You're becoming more and more obedient, Ryan." Ryan settled down to sleep obediently. Sebastian had said that the best medicine was sleep-getting enough rest would allow the medicine to work at its fullest potential.
Carissa didn't disturb him any further, and went out to chat with Rafael.

So, he began discussing Barrett's marriage to the third daughter of the Prince family. "The decision to find Barrett a primary wife was His Majesty's idea," Rafael said, standing with his hands clasped behind his back.
It was already dark, and the estate's lanterns cast a glow over Rafael's face, revealing his uncertain expression.
"Was it the king who instructed the prminister to do so?" Carissa asked, surprised. "Why? Barrett and Aurora were married with His Majesty's edict. Why now look for another wife for Barrett? I remember Aurora was given the status of rightful wife at the time." "Regardless of how she entered the Warren family, the edict did grant Aurora the position of Barrett's rightful wife. However, His Majesty isn't willing to let her have an easy time." Carissa nodded, understanding that Salvador still held onto grievances from the Victory Pass battle. He couldn't express it openly, and it must have been uncomfortable for him.

Rafael continued, "His Majesty is finding ways to vent the frustrations on your behalf, though that's not his main objective. His primary goal is still to use Barrett. Oliver now commands the Hell Monarch Army. While Oliver may not be exceptionally capable, he holds considerable influence within the army. This marriage alliance would benefit Barrett." Carissa's eyes narrowed. "Understandably, His Majesty wants to use Barrett, but there's really no need to vent the frustrations on my behalf. If His Majesty has chosen the Prince family's third daughter, she must marry, whether she wants to or not.
