Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 144
Chapter 144
After hearing Jonathan's words, Rebecca began to seriously consider the possibility.
Carissa was now the esteemed young lady of a duke’s family. If Barrett married her, he would immediately
inherit a title. Rebecca had considered this before, but at the time, she believed Aurora and Barrett could forge a
successful career together.
In that case, why bother letting her son be the subject of public gossip? But what was the difference betwe that
and what they were facing now?
With the scandal surrounding Aurora, there was no shortage of gossip. A defiled woman tarnished the family
nand jeopardized the marriage prospects of the younger relatives. If Barrett inherited a title, at least the
marriages of Bryan and Serena could be given sconsideration due to the prestige of the duke’s household.
Moreover, if Carissa returned, the vast wealth she brought with her would also return. The Warren family had
been impoverished lately; they couldn't even afford medicine. Plus, Carissa was known for her devoted and
respectful nature. She would undoubtedly handle household matters meticulously, sparing Rebecca the trouble
of managing everything herself.
Besides, Carissa had never mentioned how Victoria, the empress dowager, held her in high regard. Had Rebecca
known, perhaps Jonathan and Benjamin could have secured better positions instead of being relegated to minor
official’s roles. In the capital, such positions were scorned.
Rebecca mulled over the advantages she could gain from Carissa’s return but wasn’t entirely optimistic.
“The problem is, after everything that happened, Carissa might not
be willing to return the mused
“But why wouldn't she? She’s dutiful, and she definitely has feelings for Barrett Jonathan replied

Rebecca nodded slightly. “That makes sense, but I'm worried that because she’s achieved success now, she
might becaloof and be unwilling to care for the household oras she did before.”
“You'd be her mother-in-law. For the sake of being dutifull, she should care for you. Even if she’s unwilling to do
it personally, she'll retur with money and staff. Must she personal, attend to you?” asked Jonathan.
Rebecca replied, “That's true, but a daughter-in-law should serve her inlaws. It’s something she’s always done.”
“Aurora didn’t serve you when she cin, and you didn’t criticize her.”
Pondering this, Rebecca thought about Carissa’s past obedience and demeanor compared to Aurora’s arrogance.
For sreason, she felt that Carissa should serve her, but it didn’t matter as much if Aurora didn’t.
Rebecca anorted dismissively. “The two are different in
temperament. Besides, when Carissa first married into our family, | didn’t set any strict rules for her or make
things difficult. If she’s willing to return this time, I'll certainly treat her even better.
“Besides, who could she find that’s better than Barrett? Even if someone has a prominent family background and
military achievements, a woman who's served as a general is bound to be coarse and unrefined. The dignity she
once had is long gone. No noble family would want someone like that. Finding someone better than Barrett
would be nearly impossible.”
Jonathan reflected on Rebecca and Carissa’s past interactions.

which had been warm and harmonious. He agreed that his wife had. a point.
Having been divorced, Carissa would no longer be acceptable to high -ranking noble families and would only be
suited to lower-tier individuals. Such opportunists couldn't compare to Barrett.
“But the problem is, who should we

Rebecca frowned. “Why should | seek her out? Wouldn't that make us look weak?”
“We're already in a weak position. Do you think Carissa is naive?”
