Harvey lowered his gaze and showed no trace of anger, yet the veins in his hands resting on the armrest bulged
slightly. “You're right.”
“Don’t worry about Leona anymore. Your daughter's loyalty clearly lies elsewhere. She would rather follow
Carissa than return to your estate with you. Honestly, she’s no great loss,” Eleanor went on.
Harvey remained silent, but frustration gradually clouded his eyes.
When Yuvan saw this, he quickly changed the topic. “Well, the matter of the Earl of Gracehold’s family is settled.
The king won't employ officials who are disrespectful to their families, so their good days are over. | chere

“It won't be easy to kill Aurora now, Yuvan. The king has dispatched the Capital Guard to watch over Valor
Estate. They're in civilian clothing, but I'v oked into it, and they're definitely from the Capital Guard,” Harvey

“What about bribing someone in Valor Estate to poison her?” Yuvan asked.
I've tried, but it was useless. She only has one servant by her side, and doesn’t need anyone else. Plus, she tests
all her food with silver needles. There's no way for us to infiltrate Blessed Haven.”
Yuvan chuckled, his eyes glinting with amusement. “See, Harvey? It seems your efforts are less effective than
Eleanor’s. The assassination didn’t work, and poisoning was also a bust. Looks like you're at a loss at handling
Aurora, huh?”
Though Yuvan spoke with a smile and a light tone, Harvey understood the underlying dissatisfaction the
Older man felt.
“I'll cup with something else,” Harvey assured.
“You better make it quick. The old king in Westhaven can’t last much longer. Our people are already close to the
Westhaven crown prince, and he’s fixated on avenging the former crown prince. Also, there’s discontent among
the common folk regarding Liam's retreat from the borders. Edmund has been spreading those rumors himself to
pave the way for his own ascension and to settle things with Starhaven.”
Harvey was slightly confused. “Isn't Liam Edmund's uncle? If he stirs things up like this, wouldn't Liam beca
target of public critiscm?”
“Edmund was already unhappy with Liam for signing the border agreement with Aurora,” Eleanor explained. “At
that time, Liam had Aurora and her soldiers surrounded. However, his priority was to rescue the previous crown
prince and get him treated instead of eliminating the enemies. Liam let his emotions cloud his judgment, and
proved he wasn't fit for a crucial role,” Eleanor said.
Then, she shot Harvey a sideways glance. “Do you really not understand what Yuvan is after? He wants Aurora
dead. That way, when Edmund ascends the throne and demands accountability, we won't be able to use Aurora
as a scapegoat. It would give them more leverage in their negotiations if she was used,
“Plus, if Aurora is gone, all the blfalls squarely on Dominic and his family. It won't matter if he was injured at
the time, or that he had just lost a son. Without Aurora, he’ll bear the entire burden of responsibility for the
massacre of innocent civilians. By law, that means his entire family will be

Harvey replied, “But even if Aurora is pushed into the spotlight, Dominic still has an unshakable responsibility as
the marshal of Victory Pass.”
“It wouldn't be the same,” Yuvan said, disappointment creeping into his eyes as he regarded Harvey once more.
“Aurora was the one who injured and humiliated Arthur. If that becomes public knowledge, both the kingdom's
common folk will loathe her to the bone. They'll be desperate to see her dead. With someone so hated around,
the Sullivan family will have someone to deflect the blonto, and the fallout wouldn't be as significant.”
Harvey pondered for a moment, then said, “But it’s a fact that killing Aurora won't be easy now, especially with
the king protecting her. He probably anticipates the changes in Westhaven, Apart from the Capital Guard, Rafael
has also stationed sguards to safeguard her. Still, | do have an idea. | wonder if you two would like to hear
it?”
“Go ahead,” Yuvan said as he picked up his cup and sipped slowly.
A cold glint flickered in Harvey's eyes.

“Aurora likely knows her fate by now,” Harvey said, “and that she’s merely surviving day by day. Why send
someone to relay a message to her? We could tell her that if the situation escalates, she should insist that
Dominic was the one who ordered her to do what she did. That way, she might still have a chance to save
herself. What do you think?”
