Cain:
"So, if it's your loved daughter, why you punished her?"
Madame Hardy (surprise) : "What?"
Cain: "No matter how well the body is care, there's countless wounds and
extravasated blood on the hands . . . there are the marks made by whipping.
Just like how Cinderella was whipped by her stepmother. ", keeps on saying
and look calm , "Don't you know? In the Middle Age, there was a kind of
poison in Rome for poison the successor ------ it is also known as "The
Stepmother's Poison". Oh, I remember now, Madame Hardy, did you know this
poison 'Antimony' ? It's similar to arsenic, it's one of the strong poisons.
It dissolves in water and it's colorless and smells nothing. Started from The
Victorian time, it has many uses such as mixing up with wine to obtain the same
result.", suddenly holding Madame Hardy's arm and say, "And, its side-effect
is keeping the deterioration away ----- like the dead body of Betsy's . . .
" "So? Is it true, beautiful hostess . . . "
Madame
Hardy: "Shut Up! " Are you saying that I poisoned my own daughter?
Though that child was brought here by my husband as the adopted child . . .
"
Cain: "Oh . . . so, she is your stepdaughter then ----- Is she not?"
Madame
Hardy: "I . . . I beg your pardon. I am over reacted. Because I don't feel
good. . . "
Cain: "Well! In this case, please take a good care of yourself."
Madame Hardy: "George! Please walk me to the room."
George: "Yes, Madame . . . . . . !"
Madame Hardy thinks:
Who is he . . . ...? The golden eyes that could see through everything. It's
terrible ... Why he is so good at poisons?
-
OH -
Madame
Hardy: "George, I remember now! That youth . . . the pair of eyes! And
Poison!" "He is the famous poison collector, the one who just became
the Earl ---- Cain C. Hargreaves ! "
-
In Madame Hardy's Room -
Madame
Hardy: "Yes! I saw him twice or third in the ball, he is familiar with
poisons . .."
George: "The famous and rich successor of The Hargreaves's. How could this
be? He won't laid eyes on this minor fortune !"
Madame
Hardy: "No... That child called Elizabeth as "Betsy", this is
too friendly. Elizabeth's nickname can be 'Lizie' or 'Betty', or 'Beth' and
more . . . . But, why he knew that child's nick is "Betsy"? I remember
what she said:
Madame
Hardy recalls what Elizabeth said:
-- Elizabeth: " 'Elizabeth' is my friend. She lives inside this mirror.
She has the same face of mine. Though she is called Elizabeth too, I in this
side is called "Betsy" and she in the mirror side is called 'Bess'.
In loneliness, in sadness or fear, she is always there for me. It's another
me..." -
Elizabeth:
"How great it could be if I could come inside and play with the Mirror
Bess ... just like 'Alice in the Wonderland' " -
George:
"That's because Elizabeth was too lonely. Master Hardy who bore no child
bought young, beautiful Elizabeth somewhere . . . She was always lonely because
she was forced to apart her closed elder sister . . . "
Madame Hardy: "That's why you had to comfort her? George, don't think that
I know nothing. When that child was with you, she smiled happily and in felicity.
Yet, Snow White didn't realize the reality. "
Recalls
again:
Elizabeth: "George . . . Are you here? Thanks for giving me the flowers
and the painting ..." "George"?
-
Elizabeth was too shocked when she saw George and her stepmother hugged each
other. She broke the photo-frame -
George:
"That's ..... that's what you had planned for...."
Madame Hardy: "Yes. I used your name and asked that child to come in. She
had to receive her punishment for stealing my belonging ...."
