Helen lay on her chaise longue, her heart burning with resentment towards Carissa.
Her attendant, Gillian, stood beside her, trying to offer comfort.
“There's no need to be so upset, Your Highness. Prince Rafael is a man with his own thoughts. He's merely
infatuated with Lady Sinclair's beauty at the moment. I've heard she’s the most stunning woman in the capital.
“When Madam Sinclair first planned to marry her, many noble
families sought her hand. It's a mystery why Madam Sinclair ended up marrying her to General Warren.”
As she dabbed Helen's tears away with a handkerchief, she continued soothingly, “After all, she is merely a
secondhand item. There's no need for you to be so enraged. If Prince Rafael insists on marrying her, so be it. A
beauty from afar is pleasing to the eye, but living with her every day can bectiresome.
“No matter how beautiful a woman is, if she becomes petty and jealous, which man wouldn't grow weary of her?
Prince Rafael will have many concubines. Once her fierce demeanor is revealed, she. may end up being disliked
by the prince himself without you having to say a word.”
Helen seethed with anger. “That may be true, but how can a
dignified prince marry a discarded woman-especially one cast out. by a decayed family? How can | hold my head
high in the palace?”
She had always been strong-willed. In the late king's entire harem, apart from her sister, she had looked down
upon all the other concubines. Even the noble concubine, Dakota, she regarded as insignificant.
Dakota's son, Kendrick, had married a niece from the queen, Kylie’s
family. Kylie’s natal family, the Quinton family, cfrom a prestigious background and held significant power in
the court.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHelen's own daughter, Klera, was also in the midst of ant
engagement discussion. The list of potential suitors included the sixth son from the Quinton family. The sixth son
was from the third branch of the Quinton family.
Though a legitimate son headed the third branch, he had suffered a fall in his youth that left him with a damaged
mind. Now, at forty. years old, he behaved like a child of about seven. Fortunately, he married a kind-hearted
woman. She accepted his ondition and treated him like the child he was, and also gave him a son and a
daughter.
The sixth son of the Quinton family wasn’t a scholar. He couldn’t even pass the state exams. His days were spent
playing polo, flying kites, skating, and throwing darts. Recently, he had taken up
gardening as a hobby.
Helen, of course, looked down upon him. She hoped Kiera would marry someone knowledgeable and
respectable, not someone frivolous and inept like the Quinton family’s sixth son.
However, the Quinton family was willing to marry off their sixth son to Kiera because once she was married to
him, he could no longer hold a significant position in court. He could either find a minor official post or live out
his days in idle leisure, wasting his life away.
Previously, Salvador spoke about this, indicating that he was satisfied with Quinton’s family’s sixth son. Even
Kiera had stolen. glances at him, and had fallen for him.
Helen found herself torn. She wanted to ally with the Quinton family, but she didn’t want her daughter to marry a
wastrel.
With both her children’s marriages proving unsatisfactory, how could a woman as strong-willed as her bear it?

Consumed with anger, she ordered, “Summon Carissa to the palace tomorrow! | want to see what kind of
enchanting vixen she’s become. Even as a discarded woman, she dares to aspire to enter the royal family?!”
Since convincing Rafael was proving futile, Helen hoped Carissa would retreat upon realizing the difficulty of her
situation. Carissa shouldn't assthat a few military achievements made her exceptional.
