Finished
From the beginning, Oliver remained calm. He didn’t believe for a second that Isolde would poison someone. He also trusted that she could dismantle this scheme. And if she couldn’t–well, he certainly wouldn’t stand by and let her be falsely accused.
Anyone who wanted to harm her would have to get through him first.
That being said, he was getting irritated. If this nonsense dragged on much longer, it would delay his return to more pressing… personal matters.
Meanwhile, Heidi led Isolde and Cristina into the inner chamber.
Heidi slowly sat down and studied Isolde. “Isolde, I think you should just admit to this. There’s no escaping it.”
Isolde’s expression darkened. “Grandmother, what do you mean? ‘No escaping it“? I refuse to confess to something I didn’t do.”
“Why must you be so stubborn? This concerns the Valen family’s reputation. If this escalates to the authorities, you’ll be the one who suffers. This is a criminal matter–your past achievements won’t protect you,” Heidi said, her face turning stern.
“I will say this once more: if you have evidence, present it. If you don’t, then this is slander, plain and simple.” Isolde’s tone was ice–cold.
Cristina, weak but seething, nearly lunged at her. “You… What grudge do you have against me that you’d try to take my life?!”
“Are you done? I already said it wasn’t me. Do whatever you want–I have no interest in arguing with you. If you have proof, show it. If not, don’t expect me to let this go. I may not be a saint, but I won’t let anyone smear my name.”
With that, she turned and walked out, leaving Heidi momentarily speechless.
Heidi had been trying to help, hoping to resolve things quietly. If Isolde admitted guilt in private, the family could smooth things over before the matter reached the authorities. A mere concubine title wouldn’t shake Isolde’s position, and she’d avoid being charged with attempted murder. In Heidi’s mind, it was a generous compromise.
But instead, Isolde had the audacity to call them out for false accusations.
Cristina, seeing Heidi’s silent frustration, felt reassured. “Lady Heidi, your own maids heard what Isolde’s servants said. When the time comes, please don’t cover for her.”
Heidi hesitated. Isolde had indeed reported back to her earlier. And while the family’s reputation was important, so was justice in a life–or–death situation.
“I understand.”
