Madeline:
“It seems like a miracle. Just a day ago, she was barely responsive. She was in a state that made all of us doctors wonder if it would take months before she even showed signs of improvement. But the shocking part is that she recovered. She's doing so much better.” The doctor kept talking about it before signing Yuvonne’s discharge papers.
"I'm really glad she has healed," I replied, trying to force a smile onto my lips, but something was bothering me.
I was not worried or upset that she was doing well. It was the way it all happened. The way she suddenly became so calm.
It all happened when she heard the news about Graham. I could still chalk it up to the fact that she tried to end her life because she thought Graham was going to open cases against her and get her arrested, but it could not be that simple.
"Anyway, you can take her home, but please make sure she's taking her medicine and taking care of her health. We don't want her to spiral again, do we? We don't, right?" the doctor said with a smile, handing me her files.
I turned toward her room and stood beside the bed. She was still sleeping. I was going to wait for her to wake up so we could take her home.
I had decided to take her to my house instead of taking her back to the mansion. That place was still cursed with memories, and I did not want her to go through all that and suffer again.
"Madeline," Byron whispered from the side, letting me know he had arrived.
"I’ve been investigating inside the mansion, and there are some strange things I’ve noticed," he continued, making me turn around and frown at him.
"The cameras stopped working for certain periods of time. Then it seemed like they were completely turned off. Not only that, we could assume the cameras malfunctioned, and since their alpha was not there, nobody was taking care of security anymore. But on one particular day, some footage is missing. That suggests it was not the cameras failing, because that would be too much of a coincidence. Someone deliberately deleted it," Byron explained.
He was holding a laptop and kept pointing at the screen, which meant he had the footage with him.
"Can you show me the footage? I want to know what day it is," I asked, and he nodded, resting the laptop on his arm before opening it.
Then he played the footage.
It was from the night Ron's grandmother died. The entire scene was missing except for the beginning, when Ron was seen taking food to his grandmother.
"You see, in that video, there is a maid handing him the food. Who could it be?" I asked Byron, confused because there was no footage of her face, only her back and hand was visible.
It seemed as if the video had been cut whenever she entered the frame.
"Yeah, I don't know. It's so weird that the missing footage hasn't raised any alarm bells in Ron's lawyer's head. But look at that mirror," he said, pointing at the mirror on the front wall next to Lady Riva's room.
As he spoke, goosebumps covered my skin. I understood the severity of what he was saying.
That meant someone had let her into the mansion. That meant someone had dared to bribe a woman working for an Alpha, then made her completely invisible to everyone.
"Can't we get old records where her name might still appear?" I asked Byron.
He nodded slowly, as if deep in thought.
"I'm trying to get my hands on that. There will always be one copy that is untouched. But with Ron gone, his pack has been under so much influence from the other Alphas and council leaders that it is difficult to find anything intact anymore," he explained, gesturing toward Yuvonne, who was slowly waking up.
"We should not talk about this in front of her," I whispered to Byron.
He gave me a quick nod, then leaned toward my ear and spoke softly from behind.
"After you leave her at home, can you come with me to the mansion? I don't think her fall was an attempt to end her life."
He said those words at the worst possible time, because I could not turn around to show my shock. At the same time, I was stunned.
