Was the guest the cook from the Molders mansion? And who was that woman with the mole beneath her eye? I think I remember seeing her, but I can't point out who it was.
But I do wonder why we get to know what happened to Violet. It's not like she was an important character or anything like that.
Whoa, that was such an amazing chapter! Honestly, it could be as well just a short story, focused on the newspaper and people who read it, it was so enjoyable.
