Her Majestic Battle Cry

Chapter 1147

The moment those words left Bianca’s mouth, everyone was stunned.

The family members Bianca had brought with her were all unaware of the child. Even Riley hadn’t known, so she was the most shocked. She almost stumbled back, too stunned to process what she had just heard. Her heart felt like it was shattering.

Bianca had also been uncertain at first. But after the incident at Arcane Sanctum, she had sent someone to investigate Viola. They had found a physician who, by chance, had some connections with her husband.

When asked about why Viola’s child with the Warrens hadn’t survived, the physician shared his theories. One possibility was that she had suffered a miscarriage in the past, which had damaged her ability to carry a child.

Of course, the physician had no idea of the full extent of the situation. He just thought that it was common for women to miscarry. If a miscarriage wasn’t properly cared for, it could harm future pregnancies.

Bianca hadn’t known whether Viola had ever had a child with Thomas. She had no way of digging into the Farrell family’s private matters, and all of her suspicions had been based on conjecture. She just wanted to give Viola a strong warning, telling the latter to stop avoiding the issue and clear things up properly

The moment she said it, Zoey and Viola had gone pale. With that, Bianca knew her guess

was correct.

Viola’s body went weak, and she collapsed onto the ground. She didn’t realize that Bianca was testing her. She thought the older woman already knew everything

Riley’s tears streamed down. “So I wasn’t overthinking of being jealous! You really wanted to see him! Things between you two weren’t that simple, and you even had a child together. Your intentions were clear, but he didn’t avoid you even when you went crying to him. He should have kept his distance, but he didn’t. You two have no shame! You two even blamed me, saying I caused trouble and ruined your reputations!”

Viola felt like she was drowning, overwhelmed with a sense of impending doom–just as she had when she first found out she was pregnant with Silas‘ child. novelbin

It was the same feeling of having nowhere to turn, utterly trapped.

Back then, Zoey had saved her.

Viola looked at Zoey. Suddenly, Zoey’s body swayed dangerously before she collapsed forward in a faint.

Carissa rushed forward to catch her but was too late. Zoey had already hit the ground, injuring her forehead

Carissa’s hand came away slick with blood as she touched Zoey. She could feel the feverish heat radiating from Zoey’s face and forehead, the latter’s body burning with a terrible fever.

“Get the physician!” Luna cried, seeing the blood on her sister–in–law’s face. She was horrified and began shouting in panic.

Riley was clearly shaken as well. She instinctively moved closer to her mother but quickly straightened up and cried, “I’m so sorry! It’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have come here to make a scene.”

Her face was as pale as death as she watched Zoey being carried out, blood dripping from her forehead and staining the floor. The red liquid spread little by little, creating a terrifying sight.

Luna stood and bowed deeply to Bianca.

“Madam Claude. Regardless of who is right or wrong in this, it’s clear we’re beyond resolution now. You came here seeking an explanation, and the Earl of Silverstone’s household will give one. But please understand my sister–in–law has been ill for several days, and she has only come out today out of sheer will. Please consider-”

Before she could finish, Bianca quickly bowed back, cutting her off. “There’s no need to say more. No talk of explanations or justice. This situation has already gone too far, and we failed to consider the consequences. We apologize. Truly, we’re sorry.

Bianca’s eyes glistened with unshed tears, realizing how out of hand things had gotten. Even innocent people had been dragged into the mess. She felt a deep sense of regret.

The women withdrew, leaving the room eerily quiet. Riley was left in a daze, needing help to be guided out. As she passed the doorway, she glanced back at Viola, who still sat on the floor, stunned.

For some reason, the words slipped from her lips before she could stop them, “You can have him. I don’t want that man anymore. He’s yours.

Viola had her back turned to Riley. She closed her eyes, tears falling freely.

Yes, she had deliberately sought out Silas–but she never intended to marry him.

Silas had no official position. He was a procurer at Arcane Sanctum. Many high–ranking officials and nobles had to ask him to buy medicine and send him money, but that wasn’t the kind of support she was looking for.

She was simply tired of the constant arguments with Barrett, tangled in endless disputes and feeling trapped. She wanted someone to talk to.

At first, she hadn’t planned on saying those things to Silas at Arcane Sanctum. But when she saw him, he looked as handsome as ever, his eyes tired yet still gentle. Somehow, all the frustrations and grievances she had been feeling came rushing out, and she couldn’t

control it.

It was such a huge misunderstanding and an unfair accusation.

She never once thought of marrying Silas!
