She entered the room, her steps steady and unhurried, and greeted Charlotte with a respectful bow." Hello, Aunt Charlotte." Carissa then nodded politely to Amelia, acknowledging her presence.
Charlotte stood up and took Carissa's hand, examining her closely. Carissa's complexion was smooth and pale, her overall appearance even more refined than during her tat the Valor Estate.

"Thank you for your concern, Aunt Charlotte. I'm doing well," Carissa replied with a gentle smile as she guided the older woman to sit down. "How have you been?" "Good. Everything's fine," Charlotte reassured her, relieved to see that Barrett and Aurora's marriage hadn't affected Carissa.
Standing nearby, Amelia was anxious to speak. "Carissa, it's about-* Charlotte cast a sideways glance at Amelia, and interrupted, "Why are you in such a hurry? Your mother-in-law isn't going to die right this moment. Lethave a few words with Carissa first.” Carissa understood immediately that the issue was related to Rebecca's illness flaring up again.
However, she chose to focus on the conversation with Charlotte instead.
Charlotte clasped her hands. She wore a blue patterned top that Carissa had ordered for her last autumn. The white fox fur scarf beside her was also a gift from Carissa.
"Don't pay any attention to the rumors outside. People forget easily. By the tthe new year comes around, they won't even remember what was said about you. So, don't let those falsehoods upset you, Charlotte advised.
Carissa nodded, appreciating Charlotte's comforting words.
"I don't concern myself with what people outside are saying," Carissa replied.

*Please, go ahead, ma'am," Carissa said gently.
Hearing Carissa call her that made Amelia feel a pang of sadness.
"You used to callby name...but never mind. I shouldn't dwell on that. I'm here because my mother-in- law's illness flared up last night. By this morning, she was so angry that she fainted.

"My mother-in-law said that if I can't get Sebastian, she'll get Benjamin to divorce me. You know that in the four years since I married into the family, I've only had one daughter. When you were there, you took care of her. If Mom gets Benjamin to divorcefor being disrespectful and negligent, I'll be thrown out!! have no other option but to beg you."
"She fainted?" Carissa remembered that Rebecca had taken Snowdrop month @go Even if Pills just over a her illness flared up, it shouldn't have been severe enough to cause fainting. "Why did it suddenly becso serious?" Amelia's face flushed with anger. "It's because of Barrett and Aurora's wedding yesterday." She stopped abruptly, realizing she had said too much, and quickly fell silent.
Carissa made a small sound of acknowledgment, her expression calm. She remembered the wedding was at the end of October, but she didn't know the exact date.
