Chapter 1082
Carissa personally went to The Golden Tower to see Nathaniel.
As a businessman, he was sharp and straightforward. While he wasn’t overly meticulous in his business dealings,
he worked hard to make money. However, he also had a strong sense of patriotism. Unable to pursue a scholarly
path or master martial arts, he had always generously donated to the nation’s cause during times of war.
He greatly admired Carissa and wanted to befriend her. However, he rarely had the chance to meet her, and
being a businessman, it was difficult for him to visit her. So, when she cto see him in person, he was eager
to give her a warm reception.
Nathaniel had heard a little about the incident at Crystal Springs, but it involved too many sensitive matters tied
to officials for him to probe further. What he did know was that a young woman had suffered greatly there.
When Carissa said she wanted to investigate the matter, Nathaniel didn’t hesitate for a second.
He slapped his chest confidently and said, “Leave it to me, Lady Carissa. Just go back and wait for my good
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnews.”
Less than half a day later, Nathaniel arrived at the Capital Guard headquarters, seeking help. He explained that a
noble guest had lost an emerald pendant at Crystal Springs stago and requested the Garrison Unit's
assistance in locating the family heirloom.
When ordinary people lost something and reported it to the authorities, it was usually never recovered and often
ignored. But the person who lost this item was of notable status. Since their identity wasn’t publicly disclosed, no
one could find out who they were. All that was known was that the person was a retired high-ranking official.
This wasn’t seen as a major incident, so it didn’t attract much attention at first. However, since someone had
cforward to seek help, the Garrison Unit had every right to conduct an investigation.
The fees to enter Crystal Springs weren't cheap, and there were attendants serving there. So, it wasn’t hard to
investigate who cand went on the day of Karen's incident.
Malcolm had reserved a private spring, Emerald Pool, that day, but he could be ruled out as a suspect as he and
his wife had been at a temple, which a novice priest could confirm.
Carissa and Max took a walk around the Crystal Springs area to familiarize themselves with the layout. The
springs were located to the east of the temple, about 1.5 miles away. It had a large gate and a surrounding wall,
so there was only one entrance.
Crystal Springs was a thriving business, with reservations required most of the time. If one didn’t book in
advance, it was unlikely they would get a spot.

Carissa asked Crystal Springs muger for the
ht of guests who had vininted that day and began reviewing it carefully. Meanontale, Max and to question the
staff, booking for anyone who might seem suspicion.
As the fees for Crystal Springs were expensive, not common folk couldn’t afford it. Those who chere were
either wealthy families or high-ranking officials, heds, and notles Most of them traveled with their families, so
according to the staff, everyone had gone straight to their reserved pools. None of them had visited the pool
Malcolm reserved.
Since Malcolm hadn't come, there were no staff assigned to Emerald Pool that day. Ard with the place being so
busy, no one had noticed whether anyone had gone near the pool Carissa didn’t find anyone suspicious on the
guest list. All the names belonged to prominent officials or, at the very least, wealthy merchants. According to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe staff's statements, everyone had stayed in their own reserved pools. Afterward, the staff personally escorted
them out, and no one left or returned after they had finished
The Whitley family had made a reservation, so that was how Douglas had been able to get Karen into the hot
springs.
Carissa paused, then decided to investigate the people on Makolm'’s side of the story. She went to the temple
and asked around. It turned out that Malcolm had cwith Marjorie, accompanied by a coachman, two guards,
and four maids.
The temple staff were certain that Malcolm and Marjorie hadn't left, but they weren't sure about the rest of their
party. Only the people by Malcolm's side that day knew that be hadn’t gone to Crystal Springs. The four maids
were easily ruled out, leaving only the two guards and the coachman.
Carissa suddenly realized she had been overlooking something important-How had the staff at Crystal Springs
known that Malcolm wasn’t able to come? She immediately called for Max to go and question the staff. Realizing
the mistake too, Max quickly mounted his horse and rode off.
After asking a few of the staff members, he finally got to the truth when he raised his fist. One of the staff
admitted that one of Malcolm’s guards had cwith the reservation slip, claiming that his master wouldn't be

guard had slipped the staff smoney and gone in himself to soak
