As Marley’s accusations echoed through the room, Prudence remained stoic, her face betraying no emotion. “Nonsense,” she said coldly. “Before Prunella died, she held my hand and told me to comfort Geoffrey. This was witnessed by many. How dare you slander me with such baseless lies? And if this is true, why did you wait until after her death to speak up? What do you intend to achieve? You and your intentions are obvious. If Natasha believes these deceitful words from a mere servant, it will truly disappoint me.”

Marley’s teeth ground together in fury. “Back then, I had no idea. After Prunella’s death, I was thrown out of the estate for not serving her well enough. By some twist of fate, I met Samara, who had already suspected you. She believed you were afraid of her investigation, so you had her dismissed. After Samara left the Duke’s estate, she found Sean, and through a clever trap, she got him to reveal the truth. Samara and I learned everything. When Sean realized he had let something slip, he rushed to warn you, and you sent people to kill us both. We fled for our lives, barely escaping. Several times we should have died, but somehow, we survived. Surely, it was Prunella’s spirit that protected us, ensuring we lived to come back and testify against you.”

Prudence’s face remained impassive. “Utter nonsense.”

Sean dropped to his knees with a loud thud, pleading, “Natasha, I was just tempted by money. I was used. Please, forgive me, Prudence.”

“Speak the truth, Sean,” Natasha’s voice was ice–cold. “If you tell the truth, I will not hold your crimes against you. But if you hide even one word, I will have your head.”

me to come into the estate to treat Prunella’s condition. But it wasn’t to help her–she wanted me to secretly add cold, toxic herbs to her medicines. Besides the prenatal pills, Prunella was also given medicinal soups daily. We had agreed that after three months, I would be paid and leave, but when Prunella survived past the three months, Prudence insisted I continue until the fetus was lost before paying me. I thought it was hopeless to save the baby, so I added even more poison to the medicines. The pregnancy wasn’t going to last, and I was certain of it. But then,
