Chapter 164 Rebecca had no way to respond.

After all, she hadn't provided even a single item of compensation! There wasn't a stitch or thread to account for! She could only continue to wail, "Whether there was any compensation, Carissa knows in her heart. Just ask her, and you'll find out." *Madam Warren, there's no need to cry," Frederic continued in a calm voice. "If there was compensation, just state the items and the amount of gold and silver involved. There were officials present during the divorce, so it's easy to verify." "Furthermore," Frederick went on, still speaking in a measured tone, you said you treated Lady Sinclair like your own daughter. When the Duke of Northwatch's family was annihilated, you claim you stayed by her side day and night.

"While this may be partly true, it's not the whole story. At that time, you were ill. It was Lady Sinclair who stayed with you day and night, attending to your every need. From the moment she married into your family, she cared for you while General Warren was away on campaign. She scarcely had tto stay in her own quarters.

"Moreover, the Warren family has had financial difficulties, and there was no money for expenses. Throughout the year, the clothes for the master and the mistresses of the house were all paid for with Lady Sinclair's dowry. From Mr. Warren to your youngest daughter, every single item from hairpins to shoes was covered by Lady Sinclair's dowry. Even the second branch of the family was included.

"Lastly, the claim that Lady Sinclair forbade Sebastian from treating you is even more absurd. When she married into your family, your illness was already worsening. It was she who invited Sebastian to cand treat you. Your illness required Snowdrop Pills made by Sebastian, which cost several silver coins per pill, not to mention other medicines. If you don't have a record of how many pills you took, Sebastian does. Would you liketo have him cover to clarify?" Frederick paused, then continued, "Perhaps it would be good to have him come. We can ask whether Lady Sinclair barred him from treating you, or if it's because he despised your family's immoral behavior and was unwilling to sell you Snowdrop Pills. In the end, it was your second daughter-in-law who had to kneel at the physician's office to beg for the pills, and only then did Sebastian agree to sell them to your family. However, he said that because of your disrespectful behavior, he would no longer visit you." Frederick glanced at the crowd.

"What Madam Warren has said so far is nothing but baseless accusations without evidence. However, everything I've mentioned can be verified. Please don't leave just yet. I will send someone to invite the officials, Lord Sinclair, and Sebastian to cand clarify the matter." Rebecca choked for a moment before bursting into tears again. Carissa has achieved military honors, so naturally, everyone will side with you. It's useless to bring anyone here! She was never wronged during her tin my family." Frederick sneered. "Did you not wrong her, or did she not wrong. you? The divorce was meant to sever all ties between our families, but you chere today, wailing and accusing Lady Sinclair of being ungrateful and unfaithful. You initiated this disturbance, so don't be surprised if I expose your attempts to tarnish her nand seize her dowry under the pretense of accusing her of disloyalty." Rebecca shivered. "Don't make false accusations! When did I ever try to seize her dowry?" 15 BONUS "There's no need for you to deny it so anxiously, Madam Warren," Frederick replied.

Then, he turned and instructed one of the servants, "Invite Lord Sinclair and the officials over. Also, bring the neighbors who were present when General Warren and Lady Sinclair divorced. Let them give their fair judgment." "Wait!" Rebecca cried.

She slowly stood up, her body swaying as she smiled miserably.

"The situation has cto this, so the past grudges should be set aside. But I genuinely cared for Carissal if she doesn't appreciate that, I won't hold it against her. Although it was a marriage edict granted by the king, it's also true that my family failed her first. Alas, she wasn't willing to accept a concubine..."
