Ellen pretend that her hand has sipped causing the cup in her had to fall and the tea spilled all over our Clare.
"Ahh!" Clare screened after the tea poured all over her. Meanwhile, Ellen pretended to be shocked. "Mm, I should thank the mother and daughter peer for training well," Ellen thought.
When Lady Magret saw the shock look on Ellen's face she could not stop her lips from curving into a small smile. Of course, she had noticed Ellen's actions just now and it was impossible for her to have slipped the tea.
Lady Magret was certain that it was deliberate but with her understanding of Ellen she will never make the first move, this means that it was Clare who had done something first. Whichever way lady Magret will not get involved. After all, she believes that if you must scheme against another you should have a way to deal with the person's counter-attack.
