Rose was smiling, but she couldn't respond to any of Noel's stories. It was completely ridiculous.
Noel gave her only three stories. The first one was about the pillars, which ended up becoming the helpers of the current Ardagan family.
The second one was the fake execution. However, he didn't clarify everything, including the possibility of them really colluding with King Oliver before his transformation, as Duke Lorelei testified.
Noel just smiled, implying that it could be anything, and it was better to remain hidden. The less they knew, the better.
Rose didn't plan to pry into the business of the previous Ardagan family. Meanwhile, Elaine finally understood why Rose had told her that the thing she knew about Noel was what Noel wanted her to know.
There was indeed a conspiracy behind it, and there might be another conspiracy behind that conspiracy.
As a result, it would be a never-ending conspiracy until they didn't know which one was the truth anymore.
