ACCIDENTALLY MARRIED TO A MAD BILLIONAIRE novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13: THE MADMAN’S BRIDE

"She’s leaving Barnaby." Hughes walked up to the man instructing the servants on what food to give the madman today.

"Who is?" He turned to the woman who looked so worried.

"The new mistress. She said wants a divorce." Hughes moved backward to avoid their mad master spitting all over her dress.

The madman was at it again, spitting everything in his mouth on the servants just for fun. Most times they get frustrated and other times, they just sigh.

"What is wrong with him today? Shouldn’t he be calm after how violent he was yesterday?" She spat.

That is how it has always been. One day violent, the next day calm. It’s like clockwork.

"He should, but Master Osvaldo looks a little more happy today," Barnaby said.

"What do we do about the girl, she wants to leave." Hughes changed the conversation. Panny leaving was much more important than Osvaldo acting normal or not. It’s not like he has ever been normal.

The last thing she wanted was to go through another punishment at the hands of Abby, Greg, or Chris.

"You have nothing to worry about Hughes. Focus more on preparing her, mistress would deal with the situation herself." Barnaby ordered and Hughes went on with his instructions.

They have suffered for far too long to keep suffering again. Now they have found the true bride of the madman, they would do anything to not lose her.

Back in the bathroom.

"Because you’re master chosen Bride." Penny laughed at Rosie’s words. Chosen Bride indeed.

"It’s not funny Miss Penny. The Adkins are not good people. You should run as far away from them as you can. Do not listen to whatever deal they’ll offer, it’s all lies." Rosie said with all seriousness.

There was only little she could do to help her new miss. She didn’t want Penny to die like the other women, but that would mean Penny helping herself too.

"You’re the only woman master didn’t harm. The only one who survived. That makes you important now. They won’t let you leave." Penny’s smile faded.

Why wouldn’t they let her leave?

"What are you talking about?" Penny asked.

Rosie hesitated for a moment, glancing toward the door, then leaned in. "I heard something yesterday. From Barnaby. It’s the real reason they’ve been searching for a bride." She had overheard Barnaby and Hughes talking about it while she went to her room to sleep.

The information was too big. It was something no one knew in the entire Owlsgrave.

She began pouring warm water over Penny’s head and gently massaging shampoo into her hair as she spoke.

"They want to use you, Miss. Since you’re married to Master Osvaldo, his inheritance is yours. Everything the Adkins own is yours, that is why you’re being treated as a queen."

This was truly ridiculous. Penny thought.

Penny stood still, staring at the room. She knew she had been desperate to leave before. In fact, being caught in the Adkins drama is the last thing she wants, but she has a plan.

She couldn’t leave without her revenge on Chris and Ariana. She wanted to shame her sister for thinking she had done something huge when she married Chris.

She would take revenge for herself and Osvaldo and make sure he’s in the best condition before he leaves.

Rosie helped Penny into her dress and led her back into the room. When both women stepped in, they were greeted by Hughes who paced around the room.

"You’re finally done, Miss Penny." Hughes stared at the girl. Though she wasn’t very beautiful, she looked decent in the dress she wore. She looked better than she did the previous day with no makeup on, no jewels on her body. Just a simple girl.

"Let’s hurry now. The entire family is waiting for you miss." Hughes said and started walking away and Penny followed behind her. She was dressed in a beautiful flower dress, her blonde hair weaved to the back falling down to her back.

It’s the most Rosie could do since there were no hair pins available to tie her hair.

Both Hughes and Penny stepped out of the penthouse and headed for the biggest building in the estate. The Adkins main family house.

The maids standing at the entrance of the big building already started their gossip as they stared at their new mistress. They all couldn’t believe Penny was still alive after spending a night with the madman.

This is truly a miracle.

Penny had done the impossible. She truly is the Madman’s bride.
