Chapter 255
Isella returned to the banquet hall.
“I understand. But after this is over, I don’t want to see you again.”
“Yes.”
“Never at all.”
How would things turn out? If Carynne, as Zion had suggested, were to cleverly name Sir Raymond as her husband, would that make things go smoothly?
“Isella, but… is there something we need to be doing right now?”
“Just stay put, Sir Zion. I don’t think Carynne will name Sir Raymond.”
“Why not? If Carynne just names Sir Raymond, like her mother did with Lord Hare, it would all be over.”
“There’s no way that’ll happen.”
Isella immediately dismissed Zion’s speculation.
It was impossible. No matter how much people criticized Raymond for being reckless and indulgent, his public value was still significant. He was a famous soldier admired by Prince Lewis, a war hero, and young and handsome to top it off.
