Suspicions, suspicions

After the meeting, Ignis has some time for me. I can finally tell him what I found out and, with some luck, to hear whether my ideas make sense.

«I was thinking about something... We have suspected the Queen Dowager since the start, but we've ignored other people in the Royal Family. I mean, I can tell who would be the first to have an advantage if Gratia was sent away, even though it would be for a short time. But then again, if I don't live long enough, the advantage would be restored.»

«Tell me, Veronica.»

«Just one thing first. Don't be mad at me, all right? I'm just telling you a possibility that came to mind. It's not my intention to suspect or move against anyone! It's just... We should consider all the options before throwing away those we discover to be unfounded.»

«Just tell me, Ronnie. I can't get angry with you.»

«I realised that we've never ever suspected Juliet.»
