Her Majestic Battle Cry 639
Chapter 639
Carissa smiled. “Exactly. Then, there's Zoey from the Earl of Silverstone’s family. She can tell right from wrong.
She dealt with the situation between Viola and Thomas without showing any favoritism, which is truly rare. In
noble families, one person's honor is everyone's honor, and one person’s downfall drags everyone down. For her
to act that way was commendable.”
“You're right. | hold the sadmiration for the people you do,” Violet said, nudging Carissa playfully with her
chin. “I wonder what my cousin is discussing with Zoey right now at Silverstone Estate. | bet she’s trying to help
her husband win over Oliver.”
Silverstone Estate was certainly lively today. Evelyn, Zoey, Luna, and selders from the Prince family were all
present.
Molly and Fiona arrived with their maids and servants, bringing with them an impressive array of gifts. The items
piled up like a small mountain on the table, clearly showcasing Molly’s generous nature.

Molly wasn’t particularly skilled at socializing, but she was eager to highlight her status as a princess consort and
make Fiona seem infe So, every tFiona spoke, Molly would interrupt, then give gifts to Zoey’s children.
Zoey’s son and two daughters received a fair share of gifts, but the children of the concubines were given less.
Despite being interrupted several times, Fiona remained composed. She maintained her poise and smiled as she
conversed with Evelyn and Luna.
Sensing that Fiona was the true challenge here, Zoey mentally braced herself against her, choosing not to
respond immediately to what she said. Instead, Zoey would deflect with small talk before replying with a word or
two. And since Molly was present, Zoey would naturally address her shallow questions first to ensure she
remained courteous.
Fiona suggested they take a stroll around Silverstone Estate, stating that it was the perfect tof the year for
orange blossoms to bloom. She could already smell the fragrance wafting in the air.
Zoey immediately offered to accompany her, but Fiona smiled and said, “I completely forgot that | sprained my
ankle a few days ago, so | can’t walk around the garden. Why don’t you and Lady Molly walk around while | stay
here and chat with Madam Evelyn and Madam Luna?”
Molly didn’t like to be ordered about, but the chance to wander alone with Zoey was too good to pass up. She
immediately stood with a smile and said, “Alright. Please lead the way, Madam Zoey.”
Zoey felt a surge of anxiety. None of the others seemed to grasp the depth of Fiona’s cunning. If they slipped up
and revealed or said anything they shouldn't, it would spell trouble. The clever ruse Fiona had pulled left Zoey
feeling completely blindsided.
On the surface, Zoey maintained her composure as she invited Molly to step outside. She smiled brightly and
said, “Orange blossoms are quite difficult to nurture in the capital, but we- Ah!”
Suddenly, Zoey miscalculated her step and stumbled right over the threshold. E
Molly gasped and quickly signaled for help. Jane rushed forward to steady Zoey, who gingerly tiptoed back to the
main hall with her maid's assistance.

Zoey's breath cin sharp gasps as she said, “Oh, I'm so sorry! Please don’t hold it against me, Lady Molly.”
“How could you be so careless?” Evelyn frowned, disapproval clear on her face at her daughter-in-law’s
clumsiness.
Zoey was usually so composed, so how could she trip by Just stepping outside? That was a major
embarrassment.
“I was simply overjoyed at Lady Molly and Lady Fiona’s presence here today and got carried away. | truly
apologize,” said Zoey, her voice laced with regret as she slowly took a seat. “Luna, why don’t you accompany
Lady Molly to the garden?”
Luna had just begun to rise when Molly interjected, “There's no need to go out anymore. You were injured
because you indulged me. Let's just sit here and chat.
Zoey apologized again, “I'm sorry to have ruined your mood, Your Grace.”
“Is your foot alright? Should we fetch a physician?” Molly asked in concern
“It hurts a little, but | don’t think it's broken. There’s no need to call for a physician, but thank you for your
concern, Your Grace,” Zoey replied.
