NovelBookChapter 567 Chapter 567 After a moment of silence, Tobias asked, "What about my wife?" He had only been married for six months when he went off to war.
Violet also knew about Tobias' situation, and she said with a hint of regret, "She has remarried." Tobias couldn't hide his disappointment, but asked, "Is she doing well?" Violet shook her head. "I don't know. I didn't ask." Tears glistened in Tobias' eyes. "It's my fault. I let her down." Homer also inquired, "Ms. Spencer, do you know if my wife..." Homer's father was a commander under Hector, and Homer had fought alongside him on the Southern Frontier. His father was killed in battle, and Homer was captured afterward.
Violet wasn't familiar with the Larkin family situation, as Claire hadn't investigated them.

Sebastian treated her, but your mother was overwhelmed by the loss of both you and your father on the battlefield. She becdistraught, and now barely recognizes anyone. Mira has been treating her. For specific details, you can ask Mira." Homer covered his face with his hands, utterly distraught.
Felix didn't ask, as he had learned from his elder brother that his fiancee hadn't been left alone and waiting for him.
That brought him scomfort.
Scott and Wilfred were from Stonebrook District, and refrained from asking about their family. They planned to return to Stonebrook District after accompanying their party back to the capital.
Ivan wasn't married, and he asked about his own family. Violet assured him that everyone was well, and he felt relieved.
He looked at his cousin Thomas, who appeared dejected, and went over to offer comfort.
"Thomas, it's not a bad thing if your wife has remarried. After all, we've let our families down, and they're not to blame." Violet also glanced at Thomas. Perhaps because she had initially thought Septimus was Thomas, she paid particular attention to him.
Noticing his tight lips and troubled expression, she added, "Viola married Barrett from the Warren family. Since she's already married, I believe you should wish her well. As for whether she's happy, that's up to her own choices." Jacob had said the sthing, and Violet was repeating it. With how they had phrased it, Thomas believed Viola might not be in a good situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWithout a full understanding of the circumstances, he only felt he had wronged Viola, and his guilt was overwhelming.
Seeing his expression, Violet continued, "You need not feel guilty. Less than a month after your sacrifice she left your family. Your family gave her your pension, and your mother also gave her two shops. If there is any debt you feel you owe her, your family's kindness has covered it." Thomas bowed, and said solemnly, "Thank you for informing me, Ms. Spencer."
"Since ancient times, it has been difficult to satisfy both loyalty and devotion fully. Now, you only owe your parents and family," Violet replied. Thomas nodded slightly. "In this world, it's not easy for women to remarry. I hope they will be well."
Rafael approached them and asked, "Those who are uninjured should return to the capital first, Lawrence's ital first, Lawrence's condition should be stable by now." They all shook their heads. Although they were eager to return, they decided to go back together. No one would leave first. The morning after Carissa left the capital, Helen went to the palace. She did not seek out Salvador directly, but went to find Victoria instead.
She handed over a note to Victoria and sighed. "Kiera's wedding is approaching, yet Carissa has gone far away. Who will clean up the mess she left behind?" While calling for the king, Victoria glared at Helen with irritation.
"Did you enter the palace just to enjoy yourself? Kiera is your daughter. If she's getting married, you shouldn handle everything as her mother. If not you, who's supposed to handle it? You can't rely on Carissa for everything! Is Carissa just your servant?" Helen replied, "You're being biased." Victoria said, "Look at the wrinkles on your own face. Are you really jealous of your daughter-in-law? You should be careful not to overlook your own flaws." Helen quickly touched the corners of her eyes. "What are you talking about? I don't have any wrinkles. I take great care of myself." Victoria looked at her. Despite herself, she smiled indulgently. "Alright, go visit Lady Ruth. She has been ill for several days. The king will be coming soon, so don't stay here." Helen stood up and said, "Then I will take my leave." X
