Carissa was unaware that Viola had returned to Silverstone Estate. She had come to discuss some matters with Zoey, and had chosen to come in the evening because she still had cases to handle during the day.
Moreover, the Earl of Silverstone's family had no close ties with Eleanor, so there was no need for formal visits. If she came during the day, she would have to bring the Capital Guard, just like she would to other estates. Otherwise, it would seem like preferential treatment.
Seeing Carissa dressed in women's attire rather than her official uniform, Zoey felt a slight sense of relief.
She greeted, "Hello, Your Grace, Ms. Spencer. It's good to see you!"
"Good day, Mrs. Prince." Violet had a special fondness for Zoey, so she followed Carissa despite feeling tired from the day's events.
"Please come in and take a seat," Zoey said with a smile, instructing the servants to bring refreshments.
Once they were seated, Zoey asked, "Your Grace, if you have something to discuss, you could have sent someone to inform me. There was no need for you to come personally."
"Mrs. Prince, there's no need for such formality. I'm here today to share a few things with you," Carissa said, glancing at the servants in the main hall. "Could you ask them to leave?"
Zoey exchanged a knowing look with Jane, who immediately instructed, "Everyone, you may leave now. No need to wait."
Once the servants had exited, Zoey turned to Carissa and said, "Please feel free to speak your mind, Your Grace."
Carissa inquired, "Have you heard of Ms. Ava Weaver from Weaver Coffee?"
Immediately, Zoey recalled what Caspian had said the night he came back after buying ravioli. She had felt suspicious about the woman, Ava, at the time.
