Chapter 904

Cindy’s heart was a mix of anger and sorrow Her husband had sacrificed his arm to save Barrett, losing half of his martial skills in the process. Luckily, there was to wat, so Wyatt could still train his one–handed sword techniques However, he would never be able to wield a spear again

Wyatt saved Banett, but what for? That ungrateful wielch He dared to get involved with Aurora right under then noses! How could they have been so blind back thon? How had they not seen it coming?

It was the fault for not being more careful. If they had known, they would have punished Barrett and Aurora night there at Victory Pass. How could they have let them go back and harm Carissa?

Cindy doted on Carissa deeply. When she was born, Cindy had been in the capital, and she had never seen such a soft and adorable baby. Carissa was like a precious angel. There was no child in the world more

beautiful than her.

Before Carissa turned three, Cindy would visit Northwatch Estate every few days just to hold that sweet little qul Later, when Cindy moved with her husband to Victory Pass, she still made trips back to the capital every two years. However, as her own child grew, needing to study and train, and with the constant friction between Victory Pass and Westhaven, Cindy no longer dared to leave.

When Hector and his six sons died, Cindy had accompanied her husband back to the capital for a visit, but Carissa was already training at Meadow Ridge and hadn’t been notified to come home. So, Cindy had missed. seeing her.

The events that happened after that reached the Sullivan family through letters

When Carissa got divorced and returned to Northwatch Estate, the Sullivan family planned to return. Not long after, they heard that Carissa had gone to the Southern Frontier battlefield. Soon after, she made a name for herself, returned victorious, and married the Hell Monarch.

By then, the Sullivan family knew they could never go back to the capital.

The incident at Fawnrun City was still unfolding, and no one knew what disaster it might bring. The Sullivan family dared not return to the capital, fearing that they might drag Carissa into it.

Thinking of Carissa, Cindy’s tears flowed uncontrollably She wanted nothing more than to grind Barrett and Aurora into dust. But even more, she pitied Carissa How had that child endured everything she went through?

As Cindy cried, the other women in the room began to weep as well.

Cindy wiped her tears, stood up, and said, “Father, I don’t care anymore. I’ll go back to the capital with you” Dominic sighed, knowing that his daughter–in–law was heartbroken for Carissa. “If you want to go back, you can See her for a few days, but you must return quickly You can’t accompany me to the capital. Rest a few days before setting out

To put it nicely, he was returning to the capital on royal orders.

To put it bluntly, he was being escorted back.

Salvador had still left the Sullivan family in charge of the military authority at Victory Pass, so it was clear that the fallout from Fawnrun City wouldn’t touch them Therefore, Dominic didn’t want his daughter–in–law

to travel with him to the capital. The fewer people who knew, the better to avoid drawing unwanted attention. and dragging Cindy’s natal family into it

Although Cindy’s father had already retired to his hometown, her older brother still worked at the Ministry of Finance, a post known for its wealth and prestige Too many eyes were on him. Dominic didn’t want his troubles to cause anyone else harm

Even if he didn’t want to, the troubles still affected his granddaughter, Carissa. Over the past year, he and Rafael had been exchanging letters about Fawnrun City The more he thought about it, the more his heart ached When his granddaughter faced a crisis, he couldn’t help her. Now, he would only make things worse for her because of his issues.

He stood up and said firmly. This is settled. No more discussion. Once I leave, you will continue as you always have. Remember this–if Westhaven dares to cross the border, we must restrain ourselves as much as possible Don’t let it escalate into a full–blown war. And be sure to enforce the agreement between our two kingdoms to never harm civilians.”

“Yes, Dad We will remember.”

“We will remember that, Uncle Dominic.

Dominic returned to his room. He didn’t light a lamp, and he wouldn’t allow anyone to wait on him. Since his wife passed away, he had become accustomed to sitting alone in the dark. From his early days in the military to now, over fifty years of service, he had gotten used to this solitary existence, replaceing stability in an otherwise unstable world

He had been a general under Augustus. There had been another grand general at that time, Matthias Warren, whom Dominic had been happy to be related to through Carissa’s marriage. When Barrett came to support them at Victory Pass, Dominic had been quite pleased.

Now, he realized how blind he had been–blind to the truth, blind in his heart.

The affair between Barrett and Aurora at Victory Pass had remained a secret from the entire Sullivan family. That alone showed how truly blind he had been..
