Chapter 509
Third Person’s POV
Hunt’s tone carried an indescribable sorrow. “Just as you probably don’t want to recall the moment whien your father and brother met a tragic death.”
His words were tinged with helplessness, as if crushed by the weight of the past.
He closed his eyes briefly to steady his emotions.
Adelaide and Paisley exchanged glances, their thoughts aligning.
“Don’t doubt me either,” Hunt said, his eyes flashing with resentment as he looked at them.
“I hate her more than you do. I wish she could be torn apart. But I won’t take any risks until I know your plan.”
His hatred was genuine and unmistakable.
Ramona, seeing that Adelaide and Paisley were non–committal, quickly interjected. “Please trust my father. He will help us. He loved my mother deeply, but he couldn’t save her on his own. With Madison’s downfall, the Spectrehowl Pack would no longer be under her control. We genuinely want to cooperate with you.”
Adelaide could see Ramona’s sincerity in wanting to rescue her mother and oppose Madison.
Ramona had a close relationship with the Barkers, who had long relied on Madison’s protection while providing her with benefits, harboring resentment as most of their earnings were drained away.
This was especially true given Aireanna’s harsh treatment by Madison.
Adelaide turned to Hunt. “I’ll share our entire plan with you, but let me make one thing clear. If you double–cross us or reveal our plan to Madison, leading to our failure, I can protect myself, but your daughter will die. You know Madison’s methods.”
“Of course I do,” Hunt said, his gaze softening as he looked at Ramona. “I’d die before harming her.”
Tears welled in Ramona’s eyes. “Daddy, to save Mom and punish that evil woman, I’d sacrifice myself.”
Hunt gently motioned her closer. “My dear, I’m doing this for our family’s happiness and safety. No sacrifices are needed.”
“Dad!”
Ramona knelt, her head resting on his knee, her eyes red–rimmed. “I’ve longed for this day, hoping you

Hunt’s eyes also reddened as he stroked her hair. “Get up. Don’t embarrass Luna Adelaide. You’re not a child. Don’t be so emotional.”
Ramona wiped her tears and stood. “I’m sorry, Luna Adelaide,” she said.

Adelaide remained expressionless and said, “Before I share my plan, tell us what Madison’s been up to lately
“I don’t know much else, but she’s planning to get Eugene a new mate,” Hunt said.
“This woman was originally from a circus in Fairfax County, skilled in combat. After the circus shut down she made her own way. Once, she encountered rogues and was chased. Madison saved her and brought her to the capital,” he explained.
Adelaide frowned slightly but let him continue.
Hunt added, “When I first met her, I thought she was another breeder for me, but no. Madison kept her in her manor, teaching her etiquette and manners.”
“How could the Hutchinson family accept a woman with such a dubious background? She must have a new identity, right? What is it?” Adelaide asked.
Hunt nodded. “She’ll be my distant cousin, the daughter of the Shuman family in Fairfax County, named Astria. If the Hutchinsons investigate in Fairfax County, they’ll find records backing this.up.”
