“Mom!” Wanda looked up, puzzled why her mother would undermine them–of course they should deny

it.

Madison, seeing her daughter’s blank stare, sighed inwardly, “Fool! The ledger was taken from the jewelry store–there must be witnesses. A handwriting comparison with Johnson would reveal the truth. How could she claim it’s fake?”

She snapped, “Wanda, how do you manage your staff? Never visit the store? Not even aware of being deceived? How can you face Priscilla?”

Wanda finally caught on, anger flaring, “Johnson dare cheat me? How dare he! I’ll summon him right now!”

She signaled to the steward, who started to leave, but Adelaide coolly said, “No need. I’ve detained that deceitful Johnson at the Blackthorn Pack. Once you confirm you were also duped, I’ll have him bound and sent to the judiciary.”

Adelaide sipped her coffee, smiling faintly, “I’m a decisive person. The ledger is here. Call your accountants now, as many as you like. If you’re short on staff, I’ll send for some from the Glenveil Pack. We’ll work through the night and have results by morning.”

“No accountants from the Glenveil Pack!”

Wanda shot up, her face pale.

Rowena and Winslow already held grudges against her. If they learned of this, who knew how they’d belittle her–she was sick of Rowena’s disdain.

Madison’s gaze turned icy. “So you keep addressing me but don’t trust me?”

Adelaide chuckled lightly, “On the contrary, it’s because I trust you that I’ve brought the ledger for reconciliation. If I didn’t, the ledger and Johnson would already be at the judiciary.”

Madison slammed her coffee cup down, “Years of accounts can’t be verified in a day.”
