Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 507

In the dim light, a figure hurriedly entered and supported Viola.

"What's wrong?"

Through her tear-filled eyes, Viola saw her husband, Barrett's face.

She threw herself into his embrace, crying even harder and more pitifully.

Barrett had never seen Viola so openly distressed, sitting on the ground and wailing. He thought something serious must have happened, and urgently asked, "What's going on? What happened?"

With tears in her eyes, Julia recounted the events of the day. However, when she was about to mention Thomas's military pension, Viola suddenly shouted, "Be quiet!"

Julia was startled, and immediately fell silent.

Julia hadn't mentioned the pension specifically, but she had mentioned Thomas's name. Even if he were not the sharpest, Barrett could piece together the situation. Viola had used Thomas's death benefits to buy a tiara for Serena, which was worth 36,800 silver coins.

"Enough. You're dismissed," Barrett said.

Then, he released Viola, his face dark with anger. "Tomorrow, you will go to the Golden Tower and return the ruby tiara."

His towering figure cast a shadow over Viola. As she wiped her tears and looked up at him, she saw his face filled with humiliation and rage.

She shot a bitter look at Julia, who felt the silent reprimand. The maid retreated to the side, too frightened to say another word.

Barrett grabbed Viola's hand and dragged her along. "Come on, we're going to Mom's room."

Viola stumbled a few steps as he pulled her, nearly losing her balance. She pleaded, "Honey, please slow down."

Barrett seethed with fury.
