Chapitre 277: Lies Become Truth

They all bowed their heads instantly not meeting his eyes, when he continued, "if Meredith ever wanted to kill someone, would she ask a middle aged woman like Sarfina or knights who had strength and power. And I am sure nobles would plan murder stealthily. Why would she make a ruckus at the ball party?"

Many exchanged glances and nodded. It did not make sense that Meredith chose Sarfina to kill Anastasia, no matter how much hatred she had for the duchess.
