Chapter 48: Tradition

Caspian, Zenon, and Vincent walked outside the entrance of the mansion. They stood at the side of the porch.

Zenon glanced at Elias and gave him a slight nod, gesturing to the prisoner that Beth would soon come out.

They were soon followed by Lord Bartholomew and Lady Beth.

The moment Elias’ eyes fell on the Turners, he pointed at Beth and shouted at the top of his voice, “She is the one who threatened me into poisoning our Queen. She is the main perpetrator.”

“What?” Beth had a shocked expression on her face when she turned to look at Caspian. “I haven’t even seen him before,” she instantly denied the accusation.

Elias was quick to provide more information, “She’s lying. We met during your wedding ball, Your Majesty.”

He turned his gaze at the King and pleaded after falling down on his knees, “Your Majesty, I was just a naïve man who was threatened into following her orders. Please punish her. She’s the one who tried to assassinate the Queen.”
