Chapter 1035
Violet couldn't help but think that Jessica truly was something else-bad, without a doubt, but also truly foolish.
She probably inherited her foolishness, which Eleanor must have already accepted and moved on. Otherwise,
why would Eleanor have kept everything from her daughter after all those years of planning?
With that thought, Violet couldn't resist asking, “How much do you know about your mom's situation?”
“What's it to you?” Jessica instantly tensed, eyeing her warily. “Don’t try to frme. | don’t know anything!”
Seeing how defensive she was, Violet decided not to push further, instead asking about the maids in her former
household. She seemed to think they were trustworthy and loyal to her.
“Even after | was divorced, | didn’t take them with me. They won't be mistreated in Ironridge Estate, and Madam
Margaret is lenient. There's no reason for them to suffer with me,” said Jessica.
Carissa raised an eyebrow. “You've never considered that Serena might try to harm you? How did the medicine
end up switched so carelessly?”

“She wouldn't dare,” Jessica responded firmly. “Since she entered the house, she’s relied onfor everything.
Why would she try to harm me?”
“You say that, but didn’t she sell you out?”
Jessica paused, then instinctively defended Serena, explaining, “She was afraid they would find out, so she sold
“You're such a good person,” Violet said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
Hearing the sarcasm loud and clear, Jessica turned her face away, silent.
Carissa felt the situation was a bit incredulous, but pressed on, asking, “But this concerns the family’s heir. Didn't
the Marquis of Ironridge’s family investigate further?”
Jessica sneered bitterly. “Madam Margaret was sick, and so was Emma, who was barely hanging on. The marquis
sent a housekeeper to investigate, and after Serena rattedout, | just admitted it. Since | confessed, they
didn’t pursue it further. After all, in their eyes, what kind of cruel things couldnt | have done?”
Violet clicked her tongue in disbelief. “Unbelievable. You handed all the dirty work to Serena, without knowing
what kind of drug she used or how much she put in. You look down on her, yet you trust her so much. Do you
really think she won't cause any trouble?

Lettell you, even the meekest rabbit will bite when cornered. And Serena? She's a weasel.”
Violet despised the Warren family and felt no surprise at all over the kind of schemes they were capable of. She
believed that Serena was the true mastermind behind everything.
But Carissa didn’t see it that way. While it was clear that Jessica had ordered Serena to administer the laxative
and that Serena had carried it out, there had to be someone else pulling the strings behind the scenes.
She asked, “Flora lost her child, but your husband didn’t divorce you then. Were you only divorced and cast out
after you pushed Serena into the lake and they found out you were involved in usury?”

“That's right,” Jessica admitted bitterly. “But they had already been planning to castout before that. It was
just that they decided to pile my offenses together to make it seem more justified.”
Violet gave a cynical chuckle. “Well, don’t feel too unfairly treated. In the end, they didn’t cast you out over
trying to harm the heir or the concubine. If they had, you'd be locked up for sure. Madam Margaret treated you
decently, considering.”
At those words, Jessica seemed to recall something and began crying again. After her sobs subsided, she blinked
her swollen eyes open, barely able to see through the narrow slits of
her lids.
“I remember... When | first entered the family, Madam Margaret treatedwell. But | was arrogant and unruly. |
thought, with my parents backing me, I could look down on everyone. | even thought Madam Margaret was
trying to suck up to me.
“After my mom was imprisoned and my dad was executed, | truly thought the sky was falling. When | was
downgraded to commoner status, | thought they would be desperate to get rid of me. But... | never expected
they'd still keeparound until now,” she said.
Carissa suddenly asked, “What kind of person was Lady Emma? You knew her for so many years. You must know
her nature better than anyone.
