Ramona chose not to run a business but instead started working at the Pearwater Shelter, managing their purchasing.
Because many women there were frail, a separate building was constructed–a ‘wellness center–where they could receive nutritional meals and recover.
The shelter director had one rule: no slaughtering of live animals on the premises.
So, Ramona had to make a daily trip down the mountain to purchase meat and haul it back
In addition, the hills around the shelter were rich with wild mushrooms, mountain vegetables, and even medicinal herbs, which Ramona gathered to brew restorative soups for the residents.
Various officials also sent in batches of common, yet helpful, medicinal herbs.
All the others from Madison’s estate had been dealt with, leaving only Rosa.
Clarissa issued a specific order: Rosa was to deliver meals to Madison at the Royal Detention Center daily. However, she was forbidden from entering or caring for her; she could only pass the food through a small window.
This opening, cut into the bottom right of the detention door’s inner side, was just large enough for the tray.
When Rosa bent down, she could glimpse her Princess.
For Rosa, this was already a significant concession.
But her heart broke seeing Madison unable to stand, forced to crawl to the window.
The Princess Rosa remembered always wore exquisite silk gowns and priceless jewelry–an untouchable favorite of the Heavens who would discard any garment with the slightest smudge.
Now, Madison was confined to a dirty, stinking space, eating, drinking, and relieving herself all
in the same area.
Madison’s complexion was rough and aged, no longer fair, and threads of white were starting to show in her brown hair.

As for Lacius, he was sentenced to five years of mandatory labor on the southern border.
He was considered lucky: he hadn’t been at Madison’s estate long, and more importantly, he had refused Madison’s order to assassinate Cassius’s family, which counted as meritorious service.
After balancing his deeds, five years of mandatory labor was the lightest sentence possible.
With these personnel matters settled, Madison’s estate was officially seized.
Dennis, Deputy Minister of Justice, used the opportunity to warn the public, “Do not harbor evil intentions or commit serious crimes, or you will face total ruin.”
Regarding Maya, she had introduced a she–wolf named Frederica to Madison’s inner circle, and Frederica was later murdered.
Investigations confirmed that Maya had told Frederica’s family she was taking her to the capital to mate with someone close to Madison.
Frederica disappeared without a trace. Her family’s extensive inquiries turned up nothing, and her elder relative eventually died of grief.
Since Maya’s irresponsible introduction had ultimately led to Frederica’s tragic death, she bore an undeniable responsibility.
The officials required her to pay $30,000 in compensation to Frederica’s family.
To express her remorse, Maya voluntarily paid $300,000 and also donated money to the Pearwater Shelter.
On the surface, the matter seemed settled, but everyone knew the treason case was far from
over.
No one believed Madison was the true mastermind.
Germain was restless after his failed assassination attempt.
Every time he went to care for the ailing Pandora, he worried Lycan Erasmus would summon him for questioning.
But Lycan Erasmus hadn’t called him, which made him even more anxious.

Yet, Lycan Erasmus seemed to act as if the case was closed, having sought neither Germain nor Howell.
