### Summary
The central mystery driving the plot reaches its grim conclusion as Selina’s investigation successfully exposes the head maid, Mrs. Janet. A confession reveals Janet’s actions were motivated by a delusional, one-sided devotion to the previous Duke, Calcion’s father, whose handsome appearance in a flashback caught readers' attention. This obsession fostered a deep resentment that led her to commit a heinous act of cruelty: when Calcion's former fiancée, Airel, was in despair, Janet admits to ignoring her pleas for help and encouraging her to take her own life. The revelation confirms Janet as an accomplice in the tragedy, finally bringing justice for the profoundly isolated Airel and solving the case that first united the main couple. With the conspiracy unraveled, the core conflict shifts entirely to Selina's personal dilemma. She must now make her final choice between returning to the life and career she built or remaining in Iklein with Calcion, a decision that leaves readers anxiously hoping she will not leave the man who declared war on his world for her.
