Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 214
Chapter 214
After Rafael had gone to the Pathfinders Guild, Helen had once again summoned Carissa to the palace.
Following the events at Eleanor’s birthday banquet, Helen's view of Carissa had changed. However, it wasn't
enough to change her mind about accepting Carissa as her daughter-in-law.
Helen considered various approaches; she realized she had no effective means to sway Carissa through coercion,
especially given how Carissa had dared to defy Eleanor. It was clear that strong-arm
tactics would not work.
Thus, Helen decided to appeal to Carissa’s emotions and reason with her, hoping she would voluntarily withdraw.
Upon arriving at the Evergreen Palace, Carissa was greeted with a table set with an array of snacks and coffee.
Helen was known for her haughty demeanor, but she managed to force a smile, though it was clearly strained
and unnatural.
After Carissa paid her respects, Helen dismissed the attendants and began to chat with Carissa in a casual
manner.
“I genuinely mean well for you,” Helen began. “Rafael has deceived you. He already has someone he loves. He
once swore he would marry no one but her, so he will never give you a place in his heart. What happiness can
you expect from marrying a man who doesn’t love you? You've been married once already. Why let yourself be
played and deceived by another man?”
Helen expected to see heartbreak on Carissa’s face, but was surprised to find no change in her expression.
Carissa replied calmly, “His Highness didn’t conceal this from me. I've long been aware of it.”

for him, why go through with it? Is it just for the title of a princess consort? The Duke of Northwatch’s family’s
reputation is already high enough. There's no need to trade your lifethappiness for it.”
“Lady Helen, why do you think that among so many women, he chose me?” Carissa asked with a smile.
Helen pondered this for a moment, and replied, “To him, as long as it's not the woman he loves, it could be
anyone.”
“Indeed, anyone would do,” Carissa agreed. “But why is it me?”
This question left Helen momentarily speechless.
Helen couldn't understand why her son was so insistent on marrying Carissa. If he needed a wife to manage the
household, there were countless noblewomen in the capital to choose from-women who were pure, dignified,
well-educated, and of distinguished families.
Why choose a divorced woman?
Helene looked at Carissa, stunned, and asked, “You're right. Why indeed?”
“There are two reasons,” Carissa began. “The first is that | am the one he loves...”
Helen couldn't help but scoff, “Don’t be absurd! That's impossible. You haven't been in the capital for long, and
have only met him a few times. How could you be the one he loves?”
Carissa knew full well that she wasn’t his true love. She used this statement to lead into her second point,
encouraging Helen to think deeper.
“The second reason is that he believes | am a suitable choice as the
