A Female Alpha’s Revenge novel Chapter 825

Chapter 825

Third Person’s POV

Wanda whipped around, her eyes locking onto the bills scattered on the ground. She froze for a second, then feigned a casual pat of her threadbare pockets. “Oh, those are mine. I usually don’t even blink at this kind of pocket change, but I’m sure as hell not leaving it for you to

use…”

Before she could even finish her sentence, she lunged down to snatch up the cash and bolted out the front door.

Paisley turned to Adelaide, her eyes wide with disbelief.

“Holy… what just happened? Is that crazy woman seriously that broke?”

Adelaide stayed silent. Those bills hadn’t fallen out of Wanda’s pocket; Adelaide had dropped them there on purpose to test her.

The noble circles in the capital were small, and since Ralph was long–time friends with the head butler of the Glenveil Pack, it didn’t take long to get the full story.

By the next day, Ralph had the scoop.

Last year, Winslow took on a new breeder named Scarlett. She was a commoner who had lost her fated mate in an accident. Somewhere along the line, she met Winslow, and he brought her back to the pack.

Winslow became completely obsessed with her–not only did he shower her with money, but he also personally trained her to help manage pack affairs, which were traditionally the Luna’s responsibilities.

Normally, this would have caused an uproar within the pack, but Scarlett was incredibly tactful. Even the old Luna, Rowena, grew quite fond of her.

Naturally, Wanda saw her as a threat and grew to resent her.

Three months ago, Scarlett became pregnant. She was weak and plagued by morning sickness. Rowena assigned servants to look after her around the clock, which only fueled Wanda’s jealousy. Wanda found an opening and poisoned Scarlett’s soup, causing a miscarriage.

When Rowena found out, she was livid and quickly traced the act back to Wanda.

Paisley and Adelaide exchanged a sharp look, their pupils contracting.

“She was really that cold–hearted?”

Ralph held up his hands.

“Well, technically, she called it a mistake. Wanda volunteered to cook for Scarlett one day and laimed she mistook dried monkshood powder for rosemary. Scarlett miscarried within thirty minutes of eating the soup. To make matters worse, the healer says Scarlett will never be able to conceive again.”
