470–I Have A Nasty Plan
Kaylee: 1
Ever since I was told that Graham would be returning with Madeline, I had been anxious. My thoughts would not stop.
Did that mean he went to pick her up himself? Why would he do that?
Why didn’t the council send their own car for their precious Madeline? The questions kept fueling my anger.
Then I remembered last night. After they had cheated on me, he must have felt proud of himself.
She would walk in with that mocking look, reminding me that my husband had been with her again. I could already see the smirk on her face.
“Tell me something, Penny,” I murmured, standing at the entrance and staring outside as I waited for their arrival.
“Yes?” Penny replied, stepping up behind me.
“You were here when Madeline and Graham were friends, right? What kind of relationship did they have? Was it emotional?” I asked, slow tears burning in my eyes.
“ Graham cared a lot for her. He used to fight with his father about inviting her home,” Penny explained.
“ Lord Eldon would get angry about her wandering around the mansion,” she added.
My fists clenched.
“Kaylee, don’t overwhelm yourself with hatred. What they had was in the past,” she said, placing a hand on my shoulder.
“What would you do if it were Lord Eldon speaking to his ex?” I asked, reminding her she had once been in my place.
She went silent for a moment.
I turned to face her with a faint smile.
“It hurts when it’s your own mate, doesn’t it?” I asked.

She raised her eyebrow, clearly disapproving of my tone.
“Anyway, don’t worry. I heard her husband is going to wake up soon. She’s probably just waiting for that,” Penny assured me.
My ears perked up.
“Baxter is waking up?” I asked.
She nodded gently.
That was news to me. I walked past her and headed to Lord Eldon’s office.
He was organizing the transfer of patients to the mansion. Since morning, the staff had been preparing guest rooms so parents could stay with their children while Madeline administered treatment.
People moved in and out of the hall.
“Kaylee, I’m glad you’re here. I was having some trouble and thought you might help,” Lord Eldon said, showing me the files.
He asked me to call the parents and guide them to the guest rooms.
“I need to speak with you about something,” I said, getting straight to the point.
“Sure, go ahead,” Lord Eldon said, writing on the files.

“Is it true that Madeline’s husband is waking up?” I asked anxiously,
The urgency in my voice made him adjust his glasses on the bridge of his nose. He looked at me over the frame.
“Yes. He’s receiving the most expensive treatment with the unique herbs,” he replied.
I frowned and narrowed my eyes.
“How could she afford that? Did she find the herbs herself?” I pressed, frustration rising inside me.
“Oh no. Remember Alpha Byron? He arranged the treatment for her husband,” Lord Eldon answered.
“Why? Is there a problem?” he added, removing his glasses and leaning forward to study me.
“Why are alphas giving her so many advantages? Does anyone wonder what she gives them in return?” I demanded, feeling defeated.
People kept handing her everything. It made her look untouchable.
“Kaylee, I’ll keep that in mind and we can use it later. Right now, focus on the job,” he said firmly.
“Besides, once her husband wakes up, won’t your husband stop chasing her?” he added, reminding me of my earlier complaints.
“So her husband wakes up, and while he spends a month in that coffin, she gets my husband too,” I shot back, my body trembling with anger.
“In short, she gets both p>
Lord Eldon rolled his eyes at my comment.
“Kaylee, if you can’t help me, then I don’t want to discuss anything else right now. I have work to do,” he said, dismissing me with a wave of his hand.
I straightened my posture and swallowed.
As I turned to leave, another thought struck me. I pivoted back toward him.
He noticed.
“What now?” he asked, sounding tired.
“When and where will her husband be placed in the coffin?” I inquired.
He raised his eyebrow. 1
“Why do you need that information?” he questioned, concern slipping into his voice.
“Because the moment her husband goes into that coffin, I know whose bed she’ll run to,” I replied confidently.
“I’ll keep my husband busy,” I added.
Lord Eldon slapped his forehead.
“Fine. I’ll give you the details. Just don’t anger him while you’re trying to keep him occupied,” he warned.
I nodded and left the office.
I was not going to exhaust him. I only wanted to make sure that those who hurt me would not taste happiness either, especially Madeline. 2
I went to my bedroom and got ready. When Madeline arrived, I wanted Graham to see the difference between her and me.

I wore my best dress and did my makeup carefully. Then I waited by the door for their arrival, 2
I frowned when she stepped out of a cab instead of my husband’s car. That caught me off guard.
She did not come alone. She brought her filthy children with her.
