When Samiyah saw her daughter being criticized by everyone, she hurriedly cover and sneered. | was
wondering who was making a fuss. So it's you. “What's wrong? Are you upset that the engagement was broken
off? If you were more virtuous, it wouldn't have happened. Why don’t you reflect on what you've
done?”
Samiyah’s words contained a lot of information, causing everyone who hadn't cared much to gather around.
Helena was so angry that her hands trembled. Just as she was about to retort, Isolde reached out and held her
back. Isolde looked up at Samiyah and said sarcastically. “Yes, I'm indeed not virtuous enough. “I can’t tolerate
stand William sleeping around before marriage and that’s the reason the engagement was broken off. None of us
are upset over it. But there’s something | found odd. “Marshal Blackwell has always been strict. But when such a
thing happened, news spread so quickly. Is getting pregnant before marriage something glorious to you?”
Isolde’s words shocked many people present. They would definitely laugh at the Blackwell family. After all, it was
a scandal to get pregnant before marriage.
However, they were shocked that Isolde mentioned it in front of everyone. After all, she and the Blackwell family
were relatives and would meet in the future. Moreover, in Argentum, in-laws were the sas allies. They were
bound together for good or ill. If the Blackwell family was mocked, the Langley family wouldn't be any better off
either.
Therefore, when Samiyah spoke just now, she deliberately kept things vague. She did not want to expose the
inside story of breaking off the engagement and beca laughingstock. She only made a soft counterattack to
maintain the reputation of their families.
But Samiyah didn’t expect to meet wild Isolde who didn’t even hold back her words.
Samiyah was so angry that she was stunned, but she could not say what Isolde did wrong. She could only say
resentfully. “Eleanor is naturally in the wrong. However, | can’t be bothered to criticize you for what you did. Just
reflect on yourself. Even if you want to embarrass yourself, our family isn’t.”
After that, Samiyah ignored everyone's gossip and pulled Eleanor away, leaving William behind.
Although it looked like Isolde had won a small battle, her reputation worsened. Everyone only thought Isolde was
being reckless and ignorant.

Sof the ladies had thought Isolde was outstanding in her looks and also titled. They had wanted her to
marry into their families. Now, they backed off.
Isolde smiled coldly and turned to leave. However, William caught up with her.
The confrontation just now seemed to have something to do with him, but William knew no one would criticized a
man for his mistakes. Instead, Eleanor and Isolde would be criticized. Therefore, he had to get to the bottom of it
today.
“Stop right there. Make yourself clear!” William stopped Isolde. His eyes were angry.
Isolde looked at William and said quietly, “Isn't it clear enough? Must | say that | don’t like you unwilling to marry
you?”

Other than being humiliated by Isolde repeatedly, William had never been treated like this elsewhere. His face
turned red. “What's wrong with me?”

“What's so good about you?” Isolde asked mercilessly. Seeing that he was unwilling, she added aggressively,
“Other than your family background being a little more prominent, what else is outstanding about you? “Your
family background is given to you by your father. It has nothing to do with you. | will not marry a mediocre and
useless person. Get it?”
With that, Isolde left without looking back.
William was angry and frustrated. He also hated himself. Why do | keep pestering a woman | don’t even want?
Princess Aveline’s birthday party was originally for nobility. These people were particular about decorum. They
would never dreamed of making a misstep.
Even if they wanted to burp, they would find an excuse to go to an empty place first, afraid that the action would
attract all kinds of suspicious and disgusted gazes.
By quarreling with Samiyah just now, Isolde had made a scandal in the eyes of these people. However, no one
openly discussed this matter. They only went to gossip in comers.
When Isolde arrived at a gazebo, a few ladies happened to be gossiping. When they saw Isolde arrive, they
stopped and hurriedly left. No one wanted to be with Isolde in case they were laughed at.
The gazebo was instantly empty, leaving only Isolde and a young girl sitting drinking coffee slowly.
The young girl was wearing a purple dress and had her hair tied into a bun. She had an ruby necklace around her
neck and sapphire earrings on her earlobes. Her simple outfit was indescribably elegant..
She was not beautiful, but her features were distinct. She held a white cup with gold patterns. Her movements
were graceful. There was no smile on her face, but she was very gentle.
She looked at Isolde. Isolde also looked at her. Then, Isolde recognized her. The young girl was the Marquis of
Greystone’s daughter, Sadie.
Sadie and Estelle were twins, but their personalities were very different. Sadie was gentle and elegant, while
Estelle was wild and arrogant. Estelle was not popular in Argentum.
However, the two of them were very highborn. Their father, Jonathan, was the cousin of the Prince Regent. and
their mother, Rosemary, was the Queen Mother's god sister. From the day they were born, Estelle and Sadie had
always been doted on by the Queen Mother. Their titles were also personally given by the Queen Mother.
The strange thing was that Estelle and Sadie had never appeared together at the stime. Rumor had it that
Estelle and Sadie were not on good terms.
“Your ladyship, Isolde curtsied.
Sadie smiled. She was not surprised Isolde knew about her. In Argentum, there were many people ho knew about
her.
“Your ladyship.” Sadie returned the greeting gracefully, then got up p and left.
Her steps and movements were exemplary. As she moved, the hem of her dress swayed gently, but not too
much. Her shoes were very clean.
There were only two possibilities for this to happen. The first was that Sadie was taught how to fight. The second
was that she must have been disciplined in the palace by strict teachers in etiquette.

Isolde found peace and quietly waited for tonight's show

The Princess estate was very big. The courtyard was also very big, but there were no expensive flowers or trees.
Several large trees with big canopies provided shade very well.
The servants in the residence were all dressed in plain clothes, but they were well-behaved and had smiles on
their faces. Even if a few young gentlemen and ladies threw tantrums at them, they maintained their
11lanners.
From afar, she saw Milton talking to a few marquises, Jonathan among them.
Milton lowered his head humbly. When Jonathan spoke, he pretended to listen attentively, his demeanor
respectful and sincere.
As if sensing that someone was looking at him, Milton raised his head slightly and looked around. His eyes met
Isolde’s, and a ferocious glint flashed across his eyes. Isolde, on the other hand, looked at him provocatively.
Her glance made Milton furious. He wished he could kill her immediately.
However, when he saw someone walk into the gazebo and to Isolde’s side, the ferocious glint in his eyes
disappeared. Instead, his gaze looked identical to a venomous snake's.
Isolde stood up and walked out with that person.
Milton quickly found an excuse and followed them.
Isolde followed that person all the way to a forest in the Princess's state. The two of them soon went in.
Milton looked around. Seeing that no one had discovered him, he also sneaked in and eavesdropped on the
conversation.
“Are you telling the truth? Do you have any evidence?” Isolde asked.
“Of course there's evidence. | have Milton's letters. He wrote it himself. He was the one who askedto capture
Lord Theodric and you. | also have evidence to prove he’s related to Shadowmere’s case, the person said.
“Givethe evidence. I'll pass them to Princess Aveline and Lord Garraway, Isolde said.
