Chapter 266

Third Person’s POV

Adelaide’s lips curled slightly–finally showing up, huh?

She smoothed her hair, glanced at the courtyard, and said indifferently, “Now that Madison’s back, I’ll wait in the living room.”

“Sure, Luna Adelaide, just wait in the living room. Madison will come after changing,” the omega said hastily.

Back in the living room, Adelaide saw Priscilla had finished her snacks and was ordering a fresh cup of coffee, deeming the previous one cold.

Priscilla, usually bossy with servants, was being uncharacteristically polite in Madison’s manor, treating the staff with respect.

Seeing Adelaide return, Priscilla snapped, “Madison’s back, making you wait.”

Adelaide sat down calmly, “Really came from outside, or just emerged from inside? We’re in the living room. Unless she used a side or back door, we’d have seen her enter.”

Priscilla rebuked, “As the manor’s owner, she wouldn’t use those doors. Do you know proper conduct?”

“Then I’ll wait and see her walk in,” Adelaide sipped the cold coffee.

Priscilla had Susan wait outside.

Susan shivered in the cold for a long while, seeing no one enter, and sneezed uncontrollably.

Wanting to prove Madison came from outside, she endured the cold, shivering outside.

After nearly half an hour, Susan couldn’t bear it and headed back.

As she entered the living room, she saw Madison escorted by servants from the backyard corridor–even the dim–witted realized Madison never left.

Madison smiled, “Just got back and heard you’ve been waiting. Busy day, how’d you find time to visit?”

Adelaide rose and bowed, smiling, “As Lance’s mate, I should pay my respects and wish you well!”

Madison ignored Adelaide first, exchanging a flat bow with Priscilla.

Once everyone was seated, Madison told Adelaide, “No need for formalities among family.”

After sitting down, Adelaide cut to the chase, “We’re family, no need for formalities. Today’s visit is about your bet with Priscilla last night at the mating ceremony. You wagered on my wedding pink diamonds. Priscilla said if I don’t pursue the matter, you lose and owe her three hundred thousand dollars.”

She smiled at Priscilla, “Priscilla, we’re here for the bet. Since we won, take as many diamonds as you like— what’s mine is yours.”

AS FINE CONT

Madison’s face fell–this woman was utterly tactless, diving straight into the issue without leaving room for

maneuver.

Claiming to be the daughter of the Shadow Fang Pack’s Alpha, she acted like a boor.

Hum, forget the three hundred thousand dollars–she’d never hand over the diamonds.

Once in her possession, treasures didn’t leave casily.

Poor Priscilla, clueless she was being used.

Madison looked at Priscilla, feigning confusion, “What’s this about? What bet and diamonds? Last night was just the mating ceremony. When did you take her wedding gifts? That’s unacceptable. A son’s mate’s wedding gifts are her private property. You can’t just take them, even in jest.”

Priscilla was stunned.

Over the years of dealing with Madison and her daughter, Priscilla wasn’t naive enough to expect the thirty thousand dollars without some doubt. Yet she’d always clung to a sliver of hope.

But Madison denying everything–the pink diamonds, the bet–it caught Priscilla completely off guard.

She stared blankly, then looked at Susan, whose red, sneezing face was hidden behind her sleeve.

Priscilla shifted her gaze to Adelaide, whose calm demeanor suggested she’d anticipated this.

Unwilling to be seen through by Adelaide and furious at Madison’s shamelessness, Priscilla blurted, “How could you? Last night, I gave you the diamonds. You said if she didn’t chase me, you’d return the diamonds and lose three hundred thousand dollars. Why go back on your word?”

“Absurd. How would I incite you to take Lance’s mate’s wedding gifts? Go ask around–do I seem like someone who’d do that?”

Madison’s face darkened as she snapped.

Priscilla, already intimidated by Madison, panicked and suggested, “Let’s… let’s go back and check.”

Adelaide almost rolled her eyes–go back?
