Madison glanced at her and said, “If you keep using that brain of yours, within three years, your mate’s mother will have you kicked out of the pack.”

Hearing this, Wanda’s face fell. “That hateful she–wolf, I’ll poison her sooner or later.”

Madison coldly replied, “Do me a favor and stay out of trouble. If you cause a mess and expect me to clean it up, do you think she is someone to trifle with? You might as well try getting close to her before you talk big.”

Wanda was feeling downcast. “Forget her. What do you think Priscilla and that wretched Adelaide are here for, Mother?”

Madison put down her cutlery. An omega handed her water, which she sipped before taking a napkin to wipe her lips.

After tossing the napkin aside and standing up, an omega draped her cloak over her. She strode out, saying, “Shall we go take a look?”

Seeing this, Wanda also put on a cloak and followed.

Upon reaching the side hall, Madison first noticed several boxes on the ground. Her eyebrows shot up in surprise.

These boxes were all too familiar to her. The Golden Jewelry Store’s ledgers were sent to her for review every year, each annual set contained in a single box.

These were the same kind of boxes.

Although the Golden Jewelry Store was technically Wanda’s, it was actually Madison’s.
