Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 198
Chapter 198
Carissa’s smile widened, her fan fluttering as she tried to dispel the oppressive atmosphere in the room
“It seems you believe in setting double standards, Lady Jesicca How is it that when | speak the truth, you want to
tear my mouth apart, yet it's perfectly acceptable for you to slander and spread rumors? | trust the grand
princess has invited Sebastian today. Should we perhaps ask him to clarify things?”
Carissa cast a meaningful glance at Rebecca. “Rebecca, if you feel wronged, you may address your concns
directly with Sebastian.”
Rebecca looked at Carissa with a mixture of resentment and
coldness. Carrisa was once so submissive and obedient before her, but now, her gaze was filled with
indifference.
Rebecca blamed Carissa for everything that had happened. Carissa couldn't even tolerate one concubine. What
kind of virtue could she
have as a wife?
Yet, Rebecca remained silent. She knew that if Sebastian was called over, she might find herself cut off from
Snowdrop Pills in the future.
Jessica felt cornered. She glared at Carissa, and snarled, “What right does a discarded woman have to act so
arrogantly?”
Carissa’s voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for everyone to hear, and it carried a note of
intimidation.

behind my back, but in public, | expect you to be mindful of your words. Even though I'm the only one left of the
Duke of Norwatch’s family, I'm not someone you can easily mess with.”
A hush fell over the room. Many of the ladies present were unwilling
to be complicit in Eleanor’s machinations. However, they couldn't say or do anything due to her status. At this
moment, they were
internally cheering for Carissa.
They had attended many such parties. While they might not know Eleanor’s true nature, they recognized her
tendency to form cliques and target those who were not genuinely loyal to her.
Eleanor never confronted people directly. Instead, her daughter, Jessica, and a few others would act as her
proxies, often leaving others speechless.
But this time, it seemed they had met their match. Carissa may be an orphan, but she wasn’t one to easily be
bullied.
Helen watched Carissa with inexplicable satisfaction. Though she disliked Carissa, she admired the latter's
courage in standing up to Eleanor and Jessica.
“Cari, you're quite impressive,” Leona said softly from beside. Carissa, her eyes full of admiration.
Eleanor finally spoke, her tone cold and detached. “Lady Heather, how is your health these days?”
Heather, already on edge, felt her heart leap into her throat as her daughter praised Carissa. She was keenly
aware of the potential. consequences, and had no desire to offend Eleanor.
As soon as Eleanor asked, Heather flinched and forced a smile.” Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My
health is improving.”
After answering Eleanor, Heather abruptly waved for her daughter. ” Leone, cback and sit beside me.”
Leone was holding Carissa’s arm. She replied with a smile, “Mom, I'd like to talk with my cousin for a moment.”
Heather's expression changed, and she snapped, “You can talk later.
Chere now!”

Eleanor watched her with eyes that, usually so inscrutable, were now filled with an unmistakable and
uncontainable resentment.
To Eleanor, Carissa embodied everything she despised, a reflection of the woman she loathed.
