The Queen’s analysis also struck fear into Willow’s heart.
“But I don’t have any enemos Willow thought anxiously. Who would want to set me up loo thic
Willow was too frightened to say a word, while Kelsey also see something amiss.
Kelsey was indeed carried away by success, Even though she sensed something was amiss, she stubbornly refused to admit it, “imaga it’s just Willow’s sheer luck,” she insisted.
She was desperate to shake off the rumors that the Osborne family had married a jinx. Only if Willow achieved something remarkable would people start to see her in a new light–and the Osbomo family could finally bask in reflected glory
Besides, she couldn’t imagine anyone having nothing better to do than go after Willow
Kelsey thought, “What would anyone gain from going after her?
The Queen shook her head slightly at Kelsey’s stubborn refusal to see reason.
Hopeless. Absolutely hopeless, the Queen thought.
Even after the Queen had spelled it out so plainly, Kelsey still refused to see the truth.
Some fools were simply beyond saving
Yet the Osborne family and the Queen’s matomal family were inextricably linked if anything happened to the Osbornes, her own family would inevitably be dragged down as well.
If it weren’t for this, the Queen wouldn’t have wasted a moment on the Osbome family’s mess
It was a critical moment in the struggle for the throne, and the Queen would not allow anyone or anything to interfere with Farmin’s bid for the crown.
“There’s still a way to fix this,” the Queen said with authority. “Suppress the rumors immediately, and make sure the medicine supply at Saint Jare Clinic Is never interrupted better safe than sorry” Having ascended to the throne, the Queen had witnessed every trick in the book.
She issued two decisive orders in quick succession, determined to save the Osborne family from disaster
Kelsey finally grasped the gravity of the situation, her forced smile vanishing instantly. “Yes, Your Majesty,” she replied solemnly” run at once and have my people attend to it immediately.”
The Queen sighed in relief when she saw Kelsey finally heed her advice. “The sooner, the better,” she urged.
Atera brief pause, the Queen added, “possible, pin the rumors on someone else.”
Kelsey and Willow exchanged a glance, instantly grasping the Queen’s implication
She meant to divert the blame.

Willow thought it over carefully, then nodded firmly. “Waniclutely,” she declared. Td take my life on it they work,”
“We had several virus outbreaks, and masks were the only thing that kept the infection at bay it makes no sense they’d suddenly s Willow thought confidently
Kelsey sighed in relief. “That’s good. Even in the worst–case scenario, His Majesty won’t hold us accountable?
Kelsey thought, ‘Even if Willow didn’t accomplish anything, at least she hadn’t done anything wrong,
“At worst, it’s just those lowborn folk, stirring up trouble behind our backs–this has nothing to do with the Osborne family!‘
“If it comes to that, I could easily shift all the blame onto the commoners.
“The law doesn’t punish the masses. Even if His Majesty got angry, he wouldn’t dare hold all the commoners accountable!
No matter how hard Kelsey and Willow pleaded, the commoners simply refused to listen
After a day or two without incident, Kelsey and Willow gradually let their guard down.
Seeing the commoners stubbornly refused to drink herbal medicine, Kelsey and Willow gave up trying to persuade them
It wasn’t until the fourth day that everything took a turn for the worse.
