NovelEnglishHer Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 54 Chapter 54 Carissa didn't go back to sleep after Charlotte and Amelia left. It was already dusk, and she would be setting off when night fell. There was no point in trying to sleep now.
She recalled Amelia's account of Barrett's wedding, and suddenly felt an urge to laugh.
So, this was the true nature of the woman Barrett liked. In the end, Aurora's true nature didn't make him happy. Not only that, it also brought disgrace upon the Warren family. All the quests had walked out of the wedding banquet.
This was unprecedented.
Aurora Yates Carisse chewed on the name, and suppressed feelings of resentment and anger surged within her like turbulent waves. If not for Aurora's desire for credit, the massacre wouldn't have happened and the people of Northwatch Estate wouldn't have been decimated.
