Chapter 162

• Alicia’s words were in a new angle of questioning, and for some time, no one could come up with an answer. Alicia stood up and approached the railing of the booth. She bowed her head to Donald and continued.
• “Your Majesty, something has been troubling me since the night of this incident. Why is it that Prince Cody’s nanny was nowhere to be found? Her charge was Cody, and shouldn’t she be at his side at all times? Secondly, the maids, why were none of them in the kitchen when Queen Amelia walked in with Prince Cody? Why did they all abandon their station? Thirdly, the maid who came in when the Queen was shouting for help, why did she not carry out her order of finding the royal doctor, but instead, ran straight to the ballroom, where there were a lot of people, and shouted that the Queen had poisoned the prince? How did she know it was poison? Is she a doctor, perhaps? Or maybe a nurse?”
• Alicia's questions landed like a bomb one after another, bringing people’s attention to what they had missed in anger over what happened to the Prince, and now, they were all thinking about that.
