Juliette Minouche (BeTrapped!)

Juliette Minouche, real name Juliette Chamberlain, is one of the two hidden villainesses of BeTrapped! She was employed at the Ravencourt Castle as the family maid, but her true identity was the daughter of Dirk Chamberlain, a renown Jewel Thief, and the sister and partner-in-crime of Isabelle Chamberlain (Countess Rodriguez) who plotted to get hold of the legendary Bloodstone owned by the late North Vandernot, murdering many people at the estate to achieve their goal. Among the two sisters, Juliette was the more active of the pair, being the one to carry out majority of their schemes and expressing the desire to surpass their father.
==Story==
Born as the daughter of Dirk Chamberlain alongside her sister Isabella, Juliette witnessed many of her father's villainous attempts to gain money by ransoming rich individual the jewels he had stolen from them (as the jewels's owners are well-known, they're worthless on the black market), something that the villainess viewed to be "not worth it" as it had put her father in prison multiple times and only had brought them little money. Desiring to surpass their father, Juliette and Isabelle set their eyes on the legendary Blood Stone belonged to the Lord North Vandernot.
To this end, the villainess got herself hired at the Vandernot's estate as a maid, slowly gaining his trust, and began to study/observe North's relationship with his family members. During this time, Juliette also discovered that North and his group of adventure friends took the Blood Stone from the African Natives, the so-called Curse of Ga-Gorib that will take the life of North and his friends for stealing it from them, the death of several of them following their adventure, and the fact that North had the family soliciter Milton Masterwood filed documents indicating the ownership of the Blood Stone to him. Knowing that North wouldn't give up the jewel's ownership under any circumstance, the villainess set up the plan to murder North and gain the possession of the jewel, using the Curse of Ga-Gorib to her advantage.
Juliette began the first stage of her plan by setting up a monstrous noise inside the Vandernot Crypt, with the device hidden inside the tomb of North's uncle Mortimer, to scare the castle's residents with the Curse of Ga-Gorib. Juliette also secretly grew a poisonous aconitum plant inside the castle's garden, and slipped it into North's meal, causing him to die of heart attack with everyone believing that he was scared of the Ga-Gorib to death. Afterward, her sister Isabelle then arrived at the estate as one of the guests at the funeral, possessing as the rich Spanish Countess Rodriguez who was once North's paramour back during the time his visited Spain. After North's will was read and the fortune and estate were divided among his relatives, the sisters pursued their next target and the owner of the Bloodstone according to the will: the young Lady May Vandernot, whom Isabelle approached with friendship. The sisters had no intention of murdering May, but instead to scare her with the Curse of Ga-Gorib so that she would willingly give up the jewel to Isabelle, resulting in them legally claiming the Blood Stone's ownership.
Juliette's plan, however, ran into problem when Chief Inspector Parker of Scotland Yard came to the estate to investigate the mysterious nature of North's death. Though Parker was suspicious of her French accent, the villainess was able to avoid further suspicion as he had to continue investigation and disarm the remaining traps that she and Isabelle had planted inisde the castle. Under Parker's nose, Juliette and Isabelle continued their murder plan and fed Bachelor's Button flowers to the estate's dog, causing it to become agitated and attack Milton in the library, shortly after Parker visited him, mimicking the second part of the legend that one of North's adventure friends were torn apart by lion. Unknown to Juliette, Parker had noticed the Bachelor's Button inside a handkerchief on one of the counters in the kitchen where Juliette was in and suspected that one of the residents used it to commit the crime, though he didn't yet make the connection to her. Juliette later partnered with Colin Farrow, the family's gardener, and stayed in the kitchen under the Parker's order.
While Parker was busy investigating the basement and meeting with North's younger step-brother Franklin Eggerton, who was also romantically involved with May, Juliette and Isabelle began their third murder plan with Isabelle planting a fake letter from May, inside the guest room on her way to the kitchen, intending for either Edmund Dashlot or Major Gerald Gunn to read it. Edmund fell for the trick, and went to the Furnace Room in the basement to meet 'May', and was ambushed by the sisters who hit him with a poker and threw him into the furnace, burning him alive to mimic the third death which one of North's friends was burned alive. Juliette and the rest were then interrogated by Parker, who, after a vote of suspicion toward Franklin for being the only one without a companion during the murder, locked Franklin up in the basement for the time until he successfully investigate the second floor and the courtyard for further evidence and possible motive.
Now knowing that Parker was getting close to discovering their involvement with the crime, Juliette and Isabel rush into their motion for the fourth murder. After Juliette convinced Colin to help her serve some beverages for the guests on the first floor, she used the time to meet up with Isabelle and to set off another of the Ga-Gorib's cry to lure all the residents to the Music Room, Juliette and Isabel attacked Fu-ling with a blow dart and hooked him up with a vacuum device which will drain him all of his blood, killing him, mimicking the fourth death of being drained of all blood. The sisters then hid Fu-ling's body inside the dumb waiter and headed to the Music Room, but not before releasing Franklin from his imprisonment and brought him to join with them as well. After Parker left the Music Room to go investigate the remaining area of the mansion: the courtyard, Juliette and Isabelle left the room with an excuse of the latter having a fainting spell, and went to complete the murder by transporting Fu-ling's lifeless body from the second floor down to the fountain in the courtyard with a rope. Shortly after, Fu-ling's body was discovered by the rest of the guests, much to Parker's shock and anger. Parker then locked Juliette and the rest in the Music Room from outside, preventing her and Isabelle from carrying out the last disembowel murder, as he searched the garden and the boat house and found the murdered body of butler who discovered that Juliette had grown an aconitum plant in the herb garden area. At this time, Juliette and Isabelle tried to scare May with the prospect of the last murder, bringing up the possibility of the death of the person she cared for (implied to be Franklin), should she not dispose of the stone by selling it to Isabelle, who promised to take it and its curse faraway from the place, contented that the young May would soon give in to their offer and guaranteed their ownership of the legendary jewel.
Unfortunately for Juliette and her sister Isabelle, as not only Parker successfully discovered all the murder methods and motive, but also revealed their true identities as Dirk's daughters and pinned them as the criminals behind this complex scheme. Cornered, Juliette dropped her faux-French accent and blasted her and her sister desire to surpass their father by gaining the proper ownership of the Vandernot's Blood Stone. While Isabelle was quickly apprehended by Colin and Gerald, Juliette revealed her pistol and threaten Parker and the rest with it, only to discover shortly later that Parker had previously discovered the gun among her belongings and made it incapable of firing (off screen). In frustration, Juliette accidently set off another trap and caused the chandelier to crush on her. She miraculously survived without much injury, however, and was taken into the custody along with Isabelle after the Scotland Yard Police arrived after the storm cleared up for the crimes they committed.
