It did take them a few hours but they were eventually getting the cleaning done. With good timing as well. As soon as they were done, Phaedra was just tuning out what was happening there to focus on her brother. To focus on what was happening at her home. It seemed like the Crimson King had sent a messenger to them. Luckily it seemed like he was still infatuated with her at the time so from what Sylvan was telling her was that all they had to do was turn over the Silver Queen so that he could kill her, obviously not wanting more information about himself to spread, and for Phaedra to agree to marry him - and he would let all those within the mansion live.
"So if I marry him and we hand over Emeline for him to kill.... He will let anybody who is residing within the mansion live." Phaedra was commenting outloud as well, although there was almost a devious smile on her lips before she was actually giggling a bit. Not that she would agree to it but oh how she could use those words against him so badly. Especially the whole "whoever was within the mansion would live" phrase. She could invite all of his enemies to the mansion and agree to marry him... and everybody would be safe. Other than Emeline, that was a whole different ballpark.
