Her Majestic Battle Cry

Chapter 1181

Chapter 1181

Zoey arrived with Jane in tow. When she heard her daughter had been struck, she rushed to check on her.

Courtney's face was swollen and there was a thin scratch across it. But seeing that Catherine had already

treated the wound, Zory quickly reassured her daughter with a few comforting words. Then, without delay, she

headed to Elegance Grove to express her gratitude to Catherine.

The two mothers, Vera and Zoey, took their seats Carissa spoke first, explaining the situation. clearly. Once

everything was laid out, she sent for Jocelyn and Courtney to join them, accompanied by several students as

witnesses to make it easier for the two women to question them.

Vera's face darkened. She was upset with Jocelyn for being so unwise and for bringing such a matter to the

academy. But more so, she seethed at Courtney's words-how could she say that Thomas had no interest in her

daughter? If word of it got out, such rumors could ruin her daughter's reputation!

But in the end, it was Jocelyn who had struck someone. That was not the sas a simple argument. She had

no choice but to lower her head and offer Zoey a half-hearted apology.

“Although the girls were only quarreling, it was wrong for my daughter to hurt anyone. Please, don’t hold it

against her, Mrs. Prince,” said Vera.

Zoey glanced at Jocelyn, who still wore an expression of resentment and grievance. Anyone unfamiliar with the

situation might think she was the one who had been harmed.

“She's already of age. She’s not a child anymore and must take responsibility for her actions. If she struck

someone, then it is her responsibility to apologize. After that, whether or not | choose to forgive her is my

business,” Zoey replied coolly.

Vera assessed the situation. No matter what, the Earl of Silverstone’s family had to show the Quinton family a

certain level of respect. Clearly, Carissa also wanted them to resolve this matter peacefully and didn’t want the

situation to escalate. That was why she had called Zoey and Vera here.

Vera had already given in, but she didn’t expect Zoey to be so rude, making her look bad in front of everyone.

There were other students around, all of whom would definitely talk about it when they went home.

Vera stood up straighter. If they wanted to make a big deal out of it, then she would make sure to handle it

properly.

Even though she already knew the details, she still kept her composure and asked the students what exactly had

happened. What had caused the argument? How had it escalated to the point of a fight? The students, not

daring to side with Jocelyn’s friends in front of the headmistress, simply repeated the story as it happened,

giving an honest account of everything.

Vera latched onto Courtney's words, letting out a sharp laugh. “Oh? How thoughtful of you to

speak up for General Farrell, Ms. Prince. But If you were going to defend him, why go as far as saving that he has

no interest in my daughter? If such words get out, what will becof her reputation? Your choice of words was

reckless, Ms. Prince. If we're to consider expulsion, then both of them should go.”

She gave Courtney a cold glance, then added, “And as for the issues involving the Farrell family and your aunt-

how dare you even speak about that? Don’t you have any shame?”

Courtney's voice was hoarse as she replied, “She brought it up first; | didn’t start it! Why is it that she can speak,

but | can’t respond?”

“You're so sharp-tongued,” Vera taunted sarcastically, then turned to Zoey. “Mrs. Prince, you're the lady of the

house and you run the Earl of Silverstone’s household. Even with so much on your plate, you should still keep

better control of your children. A young woman who argues with her elders like this won't be easy to marry off.”

Her words were laced with a thinly veiled threat.

Vera was well-connected in their circle, so she obviously knew that Zoey was looking for a marriage match for

Courtney. The phrase “won’t be easy to marry off” was a veiled threat if things got worse, Vera might spread

rumors, making it harder for Courtney to marry.

Zoey was no fool and certainly picked up on the threat.

In the past, she might have cared.

Behind Zoey’s calm demeanor, there was an unmistakable, almost manic intensity.

“I demand that your daughter apologize and be expelled. Those are my terms,” she declared.
