When the Queen Returned, They Panicked Chapter 24
Madelyn’s POV“What are you–Let me go now!” I snapped, trying to be freed from his arm.Shadow L was behind me, and his veined arm was wrapped tightly around my waist. I wanted to go to Henry. I want to hold him. I miss my son; I need to see him up close. I need to be near him, and that’s all my mind could think about!“Shh! Keep your voice down, Madelyn,” he said.I struggled again, but he tightened his hold even more, and I was pinned closer to his body.“My son–”“I know, I know. Calm yourself, please,” he pleaded in a low voice, and the way his breath fanned on my ear caught my attention.He was so close. We were so close that I could feel the warmth coming from his chest, and crawling on my back. The hairs on my nape stood, and my heart started to beat hard against my rib.“Have you calmed down?” he asked in the same low voice, and I nodded slowly like I was hypnotized.Silence enveloped us, and my eyes focused on the narrow crack of the slightly ajar door of the storage room. I c

Madelyn’s POV“All of them will know that behind that elegant and confident face hides a monster!” Yolanda continued, wiping the water off her neck and face harshly.I was too blinded by revenge that I forgot to play things slow, but how could I slow down when the opportunity presents itself? There’s no right time for revenge, only the decision to stop waiting.I maintained my cold expression, unwavered by her threat.“You haven’t seen my monster yet, Yolanda,” I said in a calm voice. “Your threat doesn’t faze me one bit.”Her face burned red, anger shooting out of her eyes. “Not for fucking long.”“Hmm,” I placed my hand on my chin, as if thinking. “You sure haven’t realized what the consequence would be if you spout such nonsense, huh?”She frowned. “What consequences are you talking about?”I smirked. “You think I didn’t realize that you were about to spill your drink on me, you bitch.” My words came out like a spat, her eyes widened. “You think I’m the only one who noticed? Some ey

Madelyn’s POVYolanda gagged on the toilet water, and I let out a laugh she probably didn’t hear clearly. Her hands moved helplessly to scratch my arm or my face, but she’s in a defeated position to create any damage to me.“Did you hear that?”“What’s that?”“I don’t hear anything.”The female guests inside the restroom talked, but they went out one by one until I couldn’t hear any more voices or movements inside the room.“Wanna breathe?” I asked Yolanda, smirking, and pulled her head out of the water.“You-!” she tried to turn around, but I gripped her nape hard, pushing her down hard.“Not so fast,” I smirked.“Let go of me!” she pounded her fist against my arm and kicked out with such force that I stumbled lightly, but I held my ground.I pressed my knees into Yolanda’s back, pushing her down more to limit her movements.“What do you want?! Why are you doing this?!” she yelled, thrashing around beneath me.I let out an evil laugh. “You talk too much. Let’s muffle those screams, sh

Madelyn’s POVThe guests around us gasped in surprise. Yolanda couldn’t believe what happened, probably because she didn’t expect her trick to backfire.“My dress! My dress!” Yolanda keeps fanning herself, panicking.“Oh no, I’m so sorry,” I placed my flute of champagne on a nearby table. “That might stain,” I said, wincing at her wet dress.“Here’s some tissue,” Carter said, handing the tissue to her. “Let me help wipe it off.”“You’re smudging it even more! Ugh!” Yolanda stomped her feet. I almost smiled from how childish she looked. “Stop it, Carter!”“I’m only trying to help, Yolanda!”“Well, you’re not helping!” she snapped, tapping the tissue on her dress. Carter stopped helping and just watched Yolanda.I pursed my lips, feigning a concerned look. “That won’t do. Come with me,” I grabbed Yolanda’s arm. “God, I can be clumsy sometimes. I’m so sorry.”“N-No, it’s fine. It was an accident.” Yolanda said, trying to get out of my hold.“Just come with me, I’ll accompany you to the re

Madelyn’s POV“Of course, I’m sure.” Yolanda overconfidently said. “I wouldn’t be wrong with anything fashion-related.”I couldn’t hold my laugh back anymore. Yolanda just looked too confident; it was so funny that I blurted out a laugh before I could stop it.“Hmm, funny,” I murmured.“Are you laughing at me? At my limited edition gown?” she snapped.I shook my head slowly and faked a concerned sigh.“I’d hate to be the one to burst your bubble, Yolanda, but…” I eyed her gown slowly. “If I’m not mistaken, that gown was a last season piece.”“W-What?” she looked taken aback. “It’s not! You must be mistaken, Miss Sterling.” But her proud demeanor faltered.“I’m afraid not.” I put on a pitying expression. “And that never sold out, which makes it more of an overstock than an exclusive release.”Yolanda looked around, checking if someone had heard what I said. She’s clearly doubting her earlier proud words.“Y-You’re wrong–”“I actually dined with Aljay Cortesi last week,” I cut her, ment

Madelyn's POVCarter looked at me with a baffled expression, but I offered a sweet smile.“It slipped on my hand,” I pursed my lips. “I didn't mean for it to fall.”Seeing that I didn't intentionally drop the card, his face brightened.“Oh, it's alright.” “My hand must be slippery.”“It's okay, Miss Madelyn. I'll pick it up for you,” he smiled.I arched a brow as Carter leaned down and reached for the card.He just believed my words in a snap, just like that.But just leaning down to pick up the card? That's not enough. He showed me he would go far just to suck up to me, so that's what I wanted to see…Was Carter. On the floor. On his knees. Right in front of me.I waited for his fingers to touch the paper, and when they did, I stomped my heels on his hand.Hard.Carter gasped in pain, his knees wobbled, and he got into the position I wanted him to be in.Kneeling before me was the man who crushed my life, who broke me.“Miss Courtney?!” He looked up, shocked and in pain.I covered my
