Agnes shot Mell a vicious glare.

Mell’s lips trembled. “My lord… it’s true that I purchased arsenic last night, but I swear–I didn’t poison Lady Cristina! I only bought it for medicinal use. I have a festering wound, and someone told me that arsenic could cure it quickly. That’s the only reason I bought it!”

Isolde scoffed. “How convenient. You neither bought it earlier nor later–only on the exact night Cristina was poisoned? What are the odds?”

“I don’t know why it happened that way!” Mell’s head hung low, her entire body trembling.

“Fine. You claim you have a wound. Show me where it is–I’ll examine it myself.” Isolde’s voice was icy as she stepped forward.

Mell remained silent, her forehead pressed against the ground in submission.

“Mell, look at me,” Isolde crouched down, lifting Mell’s chin so their eyes met. “After Cristina cut her wrist, the physician prescribed medicine. Her chamber has a small stove, meaning her decoction was brewed in her own kitchen. Only a select few could have entered. Tell me, Mell–could it be that you were one of them?”

Mell fell backward onto the floor. “I…”

Suddenly, Cristina’s maid, Demi, pointed an accusing finger at her. “Yes! Last night, when I was making the medicine, you were there! You spilled vinegar on my dress, and I left to change. You were alone in the kitchen after that!”

Mell’s lips quivered. “I didn’t do it.”

Isolde sneered. “Didn’t you? Then let’s ask Cristina–aside from drinking the medicine, did you eat anything else last night?”

Cristina shook her head. “No.”

Her eyes bore into Mell, her expression shifting from suspicion to sheer horror. “It was you?”

Mell burst into tears. “Lady Cristina, I never meant to harm you!”

Her words were an admission in themselves.

Allan’s face twisted in fury. “You wretched servant! You dared to poison your mistress? How many lives do you think you have? Guards! Send her to the authorities at once!”

Cristina, shaking like a leaf in the wind, suddenly spoke. “Wait.”

She approached Mell, her gaze sharp as a blade. “A mere maid like you wouldn’t dare to do this alone. Who ordered you? Who bought you? If you don’t tell me, I’ll kill you myself.”

Mell’s terrified eyes darted toward Agnes. “Lady Agnes! Save me!”

The room went dead silent as everyone turned to Armes

“Report to the authorities? The evidence has already been manipulated in your favor. Who would believe me once I’m accused?” Agnes stepped forward and kicked Mell to the ground, her voice turning cruel. “Wretched servant! I have treated you well, yet you dare collude with outsiders to frame me?”

Mell crawled back, her face filled with terror. “I… I was blinded by greed! Lady Isolde’s people gave me silver. They only told me to teach Cristina a lesson–I didn’t know it would nearly kill her!”
