It was at this point that lady Catherine caught up with Ellen's plans. She had accused lady Vera and Princess Diana so they would not be able to stand as witnesses for her.
She turned to look at Ellen with anger in her eyes. If looks could kill, Ellen would have been dead already. Ellen gave her an innocent look. She was not stupid enough to fall for Lady Catherine's provocation.
She had lived her whole life with Queen Regina so acting weak was an act Ellen could put on any day.
Lady Catherine and Vera felt tongue-tied at the turn of the event. While princess Daina felt relief. She knew that princess Ellen had gotten her letter and was giving her a chance to prove her words.
She knew this was the reason the maid has omitted her name. "your majesty," Grater bowed still on her knees.
