Chapter 403 - Gewen Is At A Loss For Words

"Lady Chaucer was very distraught when I saw her Edgar had not sent any news for weeks He usually sent soh the merchants or our officials in the provinces he passed by" The ar must be intentionally sent away by Emmelyn so she could do whatever she planned to do"

Mars had heard this too from some ministers, and especially Duke Preston when they talked about the case

This aggravated his father even more, so that to uphold peace, Mars finally relented to their demands when they insisted that the queen's killer must face justice That hy the bounty was set up for Eive in to their demands, Mars actually had other plans

"I understand," Mars said He tapped his fingers on the table and was deep in thoughts Gewen looked at thehad to say

"Do you have so in mind?" Gewen asked him

"Actually, yes" Mars looked up and stared at Gewen "I have received a report from Damien that Roshan's older brother, which he claie, was not sick at all It means, when Roshan left my castle, he lied to the servant about the reason why he went"

"Why do you think he lied?" Gewen asked back

"Remember how he died?" Mars asked Gewen "I am sure you have heard the report"

Gewen nodded "Yeah He died a horrible death"

"Someone wrote the word 'traitor' on his arm," Mars added "And if Emmelyn was still around by the ti, maybe she killed hiainst her?" Geinced his forehead at the thought that a noblewoman could kill someone in cold blood

But, hey, wasn't E the queen in cold blood too? If she could do such a heinous cri the butler was no big deal

"I think so," said Mars "To be honest, Roshan's attitude was quite suspicious on the day that he died I actually interrogated hirave and check Ellena's story about E her death"

"Suspicious how?" Gewen asked "Do you think he was involved?"

"Well, he was the last person to see both the queen and Emmelyn before my mother was found dead," Mars explained "I asked him to share in detail about what happened However, when he saw that the casket was empty, he became so paled and spoke in a sta"

"Do you think he was scared that Ee because she is apparently not dead?" Gewen started to see the connection

"Yes I think Emmelyn was after him," Mars smiled "That means she was still around the capital by then"
