No matter how much the others protested, Barrett remained resolute, his face expressionless.
“No one from our family is allowed to approach Carissa,”
Seeing his stubbornness, Rebecca sighed. “It’s not that | want to seek her out, but our family needs a way out.
Look at Aurora’s behavior! Forget how she has disgraced our family and drawn unwanted attention to us-she’s
cruel and malicious, and she even harmed your father!
“If your father had been slightly weaker, he might have died at her hands! And where is she now? After injuring
someone, she retreated to her maternal home. Fine! Let her hide there! It would be best if she never returned!”
“It would be good if you could unilaterally divorce her, but it was your who sought the king's permission to marry
her.”
Rebecca suddenly paused, looking sharply at Barrett. “If she has attacked your father and disrespected your
mother, could we report. this to the king and request a divorce?”
Barrett's frustration was palpable. “Stop making a scene! I'd rather the king forget aboutfor a few years and
rememberonly later. At this critical juncture, seeking a divorce would only end my career.”
Rebecca was stunned. “A few years? If the king neglects you for that long, what future do you have? Military

Seeing her son in such a state, Rebecca felt a mix of panic and anger. It was all Aurora’s fault. She had brought
disgrace on their wedding day, and now, tarnished their achievements on the
Southern Frontier.
Rebecca sighed deeply. “How could you have chosen her? She’s nowhere near Carissa’s level.”
Barrett pursed his lips, and remained silent. He was filled with regret -he wished he could undo his choices.
Two military achievements should have been enough to promote him and secure his position as a rising military
star.
The first time, he had used it to marry Aurora.
The second the tried to achieve something, Aurora’s actions had dragged him down.
Perhaps he would never see another opportunity like this again in his life. Even if another war came, it wouldn't
be about reclaiming territory; it would likely involve suppressing bandits.
How many such campaigns would it take before he had another chance at promotion?
His life seemed doomed by a fleeting moment of infatuation.
Now, all he wished for was for his family to remain free of trouble, to fade from everyone's view over the next
