Chapter 18 - First question:Feeling

The first question

"Why does a person act as if he is about to be happy?"

Salazar places the doll's hat on the table

The doll speaks.

in the meantime:

Lawrence places a cup of coffee on the table in front of him and looks at the countess's complexion. It looks Mexican, or perhaps he exaggerates a little and says Turkish.

"We are not about to ask about her race, Lawrence," Albert whispers in Lawrence's ear. Albert stretches his legs and places his fist on Lawrence's hand.

"I know that the matter will not end, Albert, Lawrence. Since my father died, I have been alone and I have been talking to my children and my husband, but you know, the father cannot be replaced."

Lawrence smiled and turned to Albert.

"I tried it, it was bad, but it was suicide."

"Oh, too bad, did they commit suicide?"

"No, they are from your group."

The Countess bit her lip and drank the cup of tea, her hand trembling slightly.

"All I have to do is look at you to know that you are the murderous Countess Emily."

Lawrence and Albert leave the place and the Countess hangs herself.
