Édouard refused to take a step to immediately apprehend Casimir. When Rainard asked the reason, he said, "He has a strong hold on my father, the officials around us. Denise, who informed me of all this, is also in danger. If I imprison Casimir, a revolt may happen because there's no evidence against him. Nobody even knows he used to meet Mathieu except Silas, who's no more."
Édouard elaborated to Rainard on the intricacies of the situation, highlighting the need for cautious action due to Casimir's significant advantage. "Zoe's appointment as a servant in the palace is also suspicious. I ordered to imprison her in the morning," Édouard said.
"Zoe is connected to Casimir?" Rainard inquired with concern.
