Florence, who was advanced in age, was kept in a small and relatively clean cell. She was also separated from the other Harmony Palace servants. Since being taken to the Supreme Court, she hadn't eaten or drank anything, nor had she spoken a word.
Matthew had personally questioned her and urged her to eat, but she just lay in her cell, appearing resigned to death.
Rafael was well aware that Florence wouldn't speak ill of Eleanor. After all, she had raised the grand princess, and their bond had long since transcended that of a mere servant and her mistress. Over the years, while people came and went from Eleanor's side, Florence had remained steadfastly loyal.
As a result, she was privy to all of Eleanor's secrets—many of which were quite sordid.
"Matthew interrogated Kurt today. We learned that Aunt Eleanor initially ordered that your uncle's face be ruined and his entire family be killed. It was Florence who intervened and told Kurt not to carry out the order. Otherwise, your uncle and his family would have already been sent to their graves," Rafael revealed.
"Grand Princess Eleanor's truly deranged! She'll go to any lengths to drag anyone who looks like my mother back to be a concubine for Henry and bear his children. As for anyone who looks like my father, she wants to ruin their faces and murder their whole family! Is she out of her mind?" Carissa snapped, her anger flaring.
"So, only Florence knows how many people Aunt Eleanor has harmed. She isn't just involved in treasonous plots. There are blood debts to consider as well. His Majesty might not care about the latter, but whether it's the living or the dead victims, they all deserve justice," said Rafael.
Carissa nodded in agreement.
While treason was a heinous crime, every life destroyed by Eleanor was unique and irreplaceable.
"I need to talk to her."
"I'll have someone bring her to an interrogation room."
