Chapter 115 The Tables Turn
Piers asked, “Lady Daplme, you believe in it as well?
Daphne forced a smile. “Yes..”
“Well, since Lady Daphne truly wants me to go with her, Elowen said with a touch of helplessness, “let’s go.”
Something about this felt off to Daphne, but she couldn’t pinpoint what
Still, if Elowen was willing, that was all that mattered. “Good.”
She had briefly worried Piers might follow, but he did not. Good. He wouldn’t disrupt the plan.
The pond’s edge was already crowded. People craned their necks, searching the water for a glimpse of gold.
“Can you see it, Your Grace?” Daphne asked, subly edging Elowen closer to the water.
Elowen allowed herself to be guided nearer the gige, counting silently in her mind.
Three. Two. One.
She sensed the faint rustle of fabric behind her. Drawing on her past life’s memory, she shifted smoothly to her right.
“Ah-!”
A sharp cry, followed by a heavy splash.
Elowen looked down at the water, where Daphne thrashed and flailed.
In her past life, after falling in, Elowen had looked up from the water to see Daphne, standing on the bank, calling out, “Someone fell in! Help with an expression of pure, malicious glee
Elowen had always suspected Daphne was the one who pushed her.
Later, after Daphne also entered the Crown Prince’s Wing. Elowen had asked her directly, and Daphne had admitted it.
She had said then, “I pushed you. But shouldn’t you thank me? If not for me, you’d never have known how little the Crown Prince truly cared for you. You were in such a pitiful state, and he felt not an ounce of pity.”

A ring of spectators surrounded her, their gazes a mixture of concern and morbid curiosity.
Shame and fury burned within her. She looked up and met Elowen’s cool, detached gaze from above.
“It was you!” she cried, lifting a trembling, accusing finger. “You pushed me!”
Instantly, all eyes shifted to Elowen.
Elowen adopted an expression of pure innocence.
One had to admit, Daphne had nerve.
In her past life, after being rescued, Elowen had simply shivered alone on the bank, knowing she’d been pushed but unable to name her attacker.
Daphne was different.
No wonder, back then, Elowen had been her punching bag.
In this world, the overly soft-hearted did not survive long.
Kaelan stepped forward, his brow furrowed. “Lady Daphne, accusations require evidence. How can you be certain it was Her Grace?”
“She was the only one beside me! Who else could it be?” Daphne spat.
Murmurs spread through the crowd.
