### Summary
The chapter deals with the immediate emotional fallout from the public assassination, with a significant focus on Selina's trauma. Readers praise this realistic depiction of fear and shock, noting it makes her a more believable character who does not simply brush off the life-threatening violence. This vulnerability brings her closer to Calcion, whose protective and affectionate actions are becoming so sincere that Selina is finally beginning to realize his feelings are not part of their act. While the slow-burn romance intensifies, fan discussion is dominated by a major new theory surrounding the head maid, Mrs. Janet. An overwhelming number of comments speculate she is Calcion's biological mother, the product of an affair with the previous Duke. Her obsessive devotion to Calcion and the Lanbird family honor, combined with the former Duchess's coldness, are cited as primary evidence. This burgeoning family mystery runs parallel to the political plot, as readers theorize the Crown Prince orchestrated the murder of Calcion's original fiancée, Ariel, in a failed attempt to install his own pawn, Rosaline, as the new Duchess and seize control of the north.
