301–Part Of Her Game
Madeline:
I started to walk toward the cabin again with my children. The moment I reached it, I heard Lady Eugenia speaking with Yuvonne.
“Why is this file in your hand?” she asked her angrily.
“I thought I would deliver it myself. It would put me in Baxter’s good books,” Yuvonne uttered very softly, and my body stiffened in anger.
“You silly girl, this is not how you win his heart. This is an important matter. It needs to be done properly, and I don’t think you can do it,” Lady Eugenia almost yelled at her.
I made sure my kids were not wandering around or squeaking the floorboard under us.
“But all I need is for you or Lord Jonah to walk with me. Of course, I’m not going alone. This place is scary,” Yuvonne uttered.
I heard a slap and could tell Lady Eugenia had slapped her own forehead.
“This is not about you, Yuvonne. This is about my son. Give this file to Madeline. You’re traumatized anyway. You can’t walk around without crying every few minutes,” Lady Eugenia argued.
As she spoke, I walked into the cabin and saw Yuvonne’s face change color.
“I was just saying how I would go and give it to Alpha Byron,” Yuvonne said smiling, though her smile looked fake and forced.
“I gave this file to you. If you didn’t want to do it, you should have told me. You didn’t have to waste time,” Lady Eugenia remarked, snatching the file out of Yuvonne’s hands.
However, I grabbed it from Lady Eugenia’s hand.
“There will be no need. I’ll go and do it quickly,” I said, adjusting my children’s bags again and walking out.
This time, I did not stop for Yuvonne to come out, and she did not come out either.
By the time night arrived, I was back home with my children. I had bought them ice cream cones on the way. Thankfully, Baxter had given me some money.
The moment I arrived, I noticed there was a meeting going on in the cabin. Lady Eugenia was sitting right across from Baxter, as if she had sat him down for this conversation. His father was seated next to his wife, and Yuvonne was standing beside Baxter.
They all went silent, and their eyes turned to me. Baxter looked a little concerned. However, Eugenia stepped forward and cleared her throat.
“Kids, let’s go to the room, okay? The adults will have a conversation now,” Yuvonne stated.
My kids reluctantly walked away with her when I gestured for them. She also took my purse from me, as if I had to prepare for a big war now. Once she had taken my children to the room, she stepped out again to take Lady Eugenia’s folded laundry to her bedroom. Then she returned and waited for the conversation to start.

“What is it?” I asked curiously, noticing how Lady Eugenia was glaring at me.
Before anyone could respond, she got to her feet in haste, glaring down at me.
“Why don’t you tell us, huh? Why don’t you tell us what is going on?” she almost screamed, making my eyes widen.
“Mother, you don’t have to shout at her,” Baxter snapped instantly, telling his mother to lower her voice.
“You’re going to shout at me for her?” she screamed at him this time.
“I’m not shouting at you. I’m just letting you know that my children are in the room. You should not be speaking to their mother like that,” he replied.
As he defended me, my eyes landed on Yuvonne.
“Well then, good luck telling your children why you’re going to jail,” she yelled again.
Baxter turned to look at me before facing his mother once more.
