Chapter 367: Conversation with Lady Florentine.

The queen’s chambers were under heavy guard. All the knights and servants that worked there were part of Sigrid’s organization. Everyday, they sent her a written log of all that transpired in the chambers. If anyone strange was seen around, they were reported immediately.

The De-Kensington’s had paid off a few red knights and some servants who were trying to sniff around for information. Attempts had been made to bribe the servants. Sigrid had told them to accept the bribes and pass off bogus information.

The bedroom door was opened from the outside by a maid and Sigrid entered the room. She had no idea what to expect when she entered.

In terms of hygiene, the room was spotless, there was no funky smell. She did smell herbs and a lot of medicine. The queen was being fed many useless potions that were sent by the mage estate.

Her condition was the same and she was laying on bed. Surprisingly, she had no lost weight. The maids were keeping her well fed.

Lady Florentine was sitting by the window, looking outside. Three red knights were posted outside of it so she could not climb out. Even if she wanted to, she would not make it far because every inch of the chambers was secure.

Her threat to throw herself out of the window was an empty one.

Sigrid stopped by the bed first and looked at the queen. "You look well."

As soon as the queen heard Sigrid’s voice, she sat up slowly, throwing her hand around in what looked like angry jerky movements.

Sigrid laughed and walked away.
