Even if she denies any of it happened and was all lies to make the servants suspects, it would have drawn Erika's attention to those servants and the fact that they are clearly up to something. Something she's obligated to explain if the game is even remotely fair and the story even remotely reasonable.

I think that's the point of her, though: Erika just fundamentally doesn't care about or understand the idea of "narrative significance", because to her the narrative is nothing but a worthless smokescreen the game master is trying to deceive her with. Judging from how she reacted to the fantasy scenes in EP6, she doesn't even bother to pay attention to it.
