Carissa tapped the rim of the bowl, her nails clinking against the glass. A soft, clear sound rang out.
“Sometimes, not crying and not making a scene is actually more painful than the tears and noise,” she
murmured. “I figured that out later,” Violet said, rising to her feet and wrapping her arms around her friend.
“That's why I'll always be by your side, until you giveback that arrogant Carlssa from Blue Stone Spring
Carissa pushed her away gently, quickly wiping away tears that had fallen.
She smiled and asked, “Does it have to be the Carissa from Blue Stone Spring? What about the one who beat
you under the apple tree? Or the one who beat you outside the Inferno Guild? Or the one who defeated you on
the mountaintop...”
Violet ground her teeth in frustration. “Shut up already! It looks like you haven't had enough of my life’s bitter,
sour, sweet, and salty. How about | bring you a whole pot of it and see if | can numb your tongue?”
She put her hands on Carissa’s shoulders. “You're really getting on my nerves.”
Carissa wiped her tears on Violet's sleeve, but then suddenly threw her arms around her friend tightly, her

Violet's face was wet with tears, but she said nothing. It was just like when they were younger. After the sparring
match, Carissa had laughed at her for crying, only to hold her again afterward.
After what felt like forever, Carissa pulled back, choking on her words, “Thank you.”
Violet handed her a handkerchief. “Don’t wipe your tears and nose on my clothes. Use your handkerchief.”
Carissa took the unsightly handkerchief in her hand, still crying and laughing at the stime.
“Is this the one | gave you last time? You still carry it around?”
Violet sat back down, her nose stuffy. “No. The one you gavewas thrown away long ago. This one is from
your estate. | got it from Lulu.”
Carissa wiped her tears away, her eyes swollen and red. “Why would you take those? There are plenty of pretty
handkerchiefs at your house.”!
Violet sniffed dismissively. “Only these can prove that you're weaker than me.”
Carissa couldn't help it anymore-she burst into laughter.
Outside, Travis was leaning against the wall when he heard her laugh. Slowly, he slid down until he was sitting on
the ground. Hugging his knees tightly, he pressed his face into them, quietly wiping away his tears.
Lately, even though no one mentioned the Sinclair family massacre during their discussions, everyone knew it
was an unspoken shadow hanging over them. With the arrival of the Westhaven envoy, the case was bound to
resurface. Tonight's visit to Sullivan Estate was the beginning of that conversation.
He was worried about Carissa. After she and Rafael left tonight, Travis’ heart hadn't calmed down. When he
followed Jacob to revisit the events, what Carissa had casually brushed off with a simple sentence, saying that
her family was dead, had unraveled into something far more harrowing. Scene by scene, the tragedy cto life
before his eyes.
He had never been able to imagine how Carissa had endured it all. Now, it seemed even harder to comprehend.
Travis had no parents, but he had his mentor and guild members who were strict yet loved him deeply. If they

were all brutally killed, he would go mad. He wouldn't care about the so-called “greater good“. When he saw his
enemies, he would do whatever it took to take revenge, even if it cost him his life.
However, he understood why Carissa could endure it. Her grandfather and uncles were all loyal generals, placing
the kingdom before their family, and she was proud of that. Yet, it also bound her, preventing her from seeking
revenge the way she once could.

Travis sat there for a while, listening to the teasing between them inside, before he saw Kyle outside. He quickly
stood up
and walked over, hushing the other man with a finger to his lips.
“They're just chatting.”
“Did she cry?” Kyle asked softly.
“Vivi calmed her down. Now, they're just talking.”
Kyle sighed. “It’s fortunate she has Violet by her side. Sometimes, it’s the girls who understand how to comfort
each other. Us big guys, we can’t do it with that much delicacy.”
Travis nodded. “You're right. Let's head to the study. Prince Rafael and Jacob are probably discussing matters and
planning the next move.”
The first step was to ensure Dominic wasn’t detained at the Ministry of Justice. That battle had already been
won.
