Chapter 875 She was Overthinking it
Soon after he got the message, he sent someone over.
Queeny didn't have to wait long before Ford arrived.
He knocked softly on the door outside and Queeny went to open it. Seeing that it was him, she handed
him the bottle of essential oil.
Perhaps knowing she was in her nightgown and in the privacy of her room, Ford kept his head down
and didn't look up much.
When he took it, Queeny whispered, "Find out what it's made of, and let me know as soon as you have
it analyzed."
Ford nodded, murmured "yes," and then turned to leave.
Queeny closed the door.
She felt a little better when it was given away.
When she got into bed again, she felt a rush of sleepiness and fell asleep soon.
The next day.
At breakfast she and Felix were still alone in the dining room.
Both of them had the habit of eating and sleeping without speaking, so no one spoke at the table.
It wasn't until the meal was over that Queeny said, "There's something I want to talk to you about."
Felix took one look at her, slowly lowered his cup of tea, and whispered, "Let's go to the study."
So she got up and pushed his wheelchair to the study.
In the study, Queeny turned and closed the door, walked to the sofa and sat down, then said: "You
were injured earlier, and too many things at that time, so there is something I haven't had a chance to
tell you."
Felix looked at her. "What is it?"
Queeny held out the map he had drawn and said, "Ella said she had seen this map before, the one on
the Celestial Book."
Felix was stunned.
He was surprised.
In fact, not only he, but Even Queeny was surprised when she first heard about it.
But he was quick at last, and in a moment his countenance returned to normal.
"What's the matter?" he asked quietly.
Queeny shook her head. "I don't know exactly. Didn't you give me a file to look at on the day you left for
the next city? When I was reading, Ella just came in and saw the picture on it."
"According to her, the pattern on the Celestial Book in the picture looked familiar to her, as if she had
seen it from somewhere. But she couldn't remember exactly where."
"I wondered if she was wrong, but later, when we found out that the spy who was in the guard had the
map on him, I knew it wasn't the only place."
"More than one person must have seen it. So it's possible that Ella actually saw it somewhere by
mistake."
Felix frowned deeply.
He was silent and did not say anything. Queeny knew he was thinking about the possibility.
After a pause he said, "So she hasn't remembered all this time?"
Queeny shook her head.
Felix was silent again.
Queeny said quietly, "I mean... Should we send someone to her hometown to check it out? I heard that
after she graduated from a school in her hometown, she came to work here directly through the
introduction of acquaintances. She was young and had not been to many places. Maybe if we check
around, we might find something."
"That might work," said Felix thoughtfully. "It's just..."
He paused. Queeny raised her eyebrows and surmised, "Are you afraid to alert the suspect?"
Felix nodded.
He thought for a moment and then said, "Do you ever get the feeling that no matter what we do, what
we find, how we look, everything seems to be under the control of the enemy? And at the end of the
day, we realize that we've gone full circle, that all of these clues are just smoke screens, and we still
haven't found anything."
"I'm a little worried that this will be the same as the others. It looks like we have a clue, but in fact, we
still can't find anything, and we're just being fooled around."
Queeny frowned when she heard it.
"It's possible," she said quietly.
After all, after all this time, they had more or less figured out the habits of their enemies.
Felix looked at her for a moment, then heard her say, "Let's leave it at that. For now, I trust Ella. Let's
just wait and see if she remembers anything. Maybe when she does, we won't have to do the
investigation."
Felix nodded.
Just then, the door of the study was knocked from outside.
Felix called "Come in." The door was opened and Ford came in.
But when he saw Felix, he just said hello and went straight to Queeny.
"Miss Horton, this is what you asked me to look into last night. The results are in."
With that, he handed her a report, respectfully.
Queeny took it and looked at it carefully.
Felix watched and felt a strange sensation.
It was like, the castle was like a big family, and he was the head of the family, and Queeny was the
mistress of the family.
Some of those who had previously been under his command and required his ideas had now been
handed over to her.
And those who had been faithful to him now served the mistress of the house as well as him.
Unity between husband and wife would make them stronger?
He smiled at the thought.
Queeny didn't know what he was thinking.
She was still absorbed in the report.
All the ingredients and effects of that bottle of Flower Oil had been written out in the report. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
There was a slight frown between her eyes.
Did she really think too much before?
Felix had only received a text message from her last night asking him to send Ford over. In fact, he had
no idea what it was about.
So at this point, seeing the report in her hand, he asked curiously, "What is it?"
Queeny looked up and said, "Nothing, it's just a regular report."
After saying that, she did not let him read, but straight put the report away.
Then she took out the bottle of Flowers Oil that had not been used up for inspection and handed it to
him.
"Here, here's something for you."
Felix gasped with a gleam of surprise in his eyes and then reached for it.
"What is it?"
Queeny smiled. "It's Flowers Oil for massaging. It can soothe the spirits and help you sleep and it
works very well. Try it."
