"This is bad. The king is going to question us after he sees the queen, but his mother ordered us to not say anything. I think that we should tell the truth. The queen will protect us," said Daisy.
Julia didn't care to stay silent or reveal that Tabitha had pushed Hazel to the point of fainting. Both worked well in her favour. All that mattered was that it was now known that there was something wrong with the queen. This should reach Grant's ears by night.
Daisy wished Julia would say something. They should be in this together when asked by the king what caused the queen to faint. "You should try speaking to us a little more."
"My focus is on the queen. Do you think this is a good time to try getting me to speak about friendships?" Julia asked.
