Rosalind threw herself into her grandmother's embrace, resting there for a while before finally lifting her head.
Her eyes were red, but they sparkled brightly, as if everything she said cstraight from her heart.
Carissa and Violet exchanged glances, both sensing something a bit strange.
But they were there to encourage Rosalind to let go of Thomas, so they decided not to say anything further
regarding the matter.
After leaving Trevor's residence, the two won
turned hand sent someone to inform Thomas of
the outcome. Originally, Carissa intended to only relay the news. But after thinking it over, she asked Violet to go
see him in person and share everything Rosalind had said.

Though she might be a bit slow when it cto matters of the heart, Carissa could still see the discomfort
Rosalind felt after making her rapid decision.
Her feelings for Thomas didn’t seem to stem from a fleeting infatuation. They must have had sconnection in
the past, right?
Yet, that didn’t seem possible. They were nearly a decade apart in age, and Thomas had joined the military at a
young age-he was probably only fifteen when he began serving under General Xavier in the military
encampments outside the capital. While he could return hoccasionally, there shouldn't have been any
interaction between him and Rosalind.
After hearing Violet's words, Thomas simply nodded. “Alright. Thank you for your efforts, Your Grace, Violet. | also
appreciate Mr. York for coming up with such a reasonable excuse.”
Violet paused for a moment and said, “Thomas, Rosalind is a good girl. She's a really, very good girl. She wishes
you peace and happiness.”
Thomas knew Violet was discerning when it cto people, and her endorsement of Rosalind meant the girl was
indeed exceptional. However, he also understood that someone as admirable as Rosalind, especially at such a
young age, deserved a gentle and refined suitor.
With a smile, Thomas replied, “I wish her peace and happiness as well, and hope she finds her ideal match
soon.”
Meanwhile, Zoey returned hwith Viola and laid everything bare.
“You needn't go around doubting everything and everyone. Thomas was the one who first discovered this matter.
He found Silas‘ emerald pendant tucked between the corner of your bed and the wall, and | told him the rest.”
Viola stared at Zoey in disbelief. “He found the emerald pendant, and you didn’t even try to cover for me? You're
my sister-in-law! Instead, you exaggerated the truth and told him everything? What have | done to you for you
to betraylike this?”
“Cover for you? What grudge do | have against Thomas?” Zoey replied coldly.
Viola felt her hands and feet turn icy. She never expected to be betrayed by her sister-in-law. In a fit of anger
and tears, she exclaimed, “But you're not even close to him! I'm your sister-in-law! We're family!

You'd harm family? Don’t you fear retribution for this?”
She grabbed Zoey’s arm. “Cwithto Mom! Is this how you treat your sister-in-law? I’ve never done
anything to you! You've always had your way in this household, and everyone listens to you, including me. Isn't
that enough? What more do you want from me?”
Zoey shook off her grip, and slapped Viola across the face. “This slap is fromon behalf of Lady Carissa.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore Viola could process what had happened, another slap landed on her right cheek. “This slap is from
Thomas.”
“How dare you hit me?!” Viola screamed.
Ignoring her outburst, Zoey raised her hand and brought it down harshly against her own face.
“This slap is for me-it’s for all the years | let you get away with everything, for all the times | opened my heart to
you, for putting family ties above right and wrong. You were the one who secretly got involved with someone, but
| helped you terminate your pregnancy, found someone to take care of you after, and even personally escorted
you back to the Farrell family.”
Tears streamed down Zoey'’s face as she delivered the self-inflicted slap, leaving clear red fingerprints on her
skin.
“Madam Zoey!” Jane cried, rushing over to grab her hand. “Why hurt yourself? If you're angry, you can take it
out on me!”
Zoey shook off Jane’s hold and struck herself again, crying as she did so.
“This slap is for my foolishness back then. When the news of Thomas' death was reported, you wanted to return
to us and take his death pension. | was too scared to tell you to return it, worried it might reveal something that
would shour family. Well, I'm done with the pretenses today! | don’t care anymore. Go ahead and cause a
scene before Mother. Let everyone know what's happened.”
