Chapter 82 The Baby is in Perfect Health

AT THE HOSPTIAL

“Well?” Narcissa demanded imperiously as she stood in the corridor outside of her

daughter’s private room.

The consultant in charge of her daughter’s care narrowed his eyes lightly and cleared

his throat before he spoke. No wonder the midwives didn’t want to deal with her, her

arrogance was almost suffocating.

“Everything seems fine with the baby, your highness. We can’t pinpoint where the

blood originated from though, there was certainly no sign of any bleeding internally at

least.” The doctor said flatly, glancing suspiciously over Narcissa’s shoulder and into

the room where Ada reclined lazily on the bed.

He frowned slightly as he watched Ada flicking through the phone as if nothing had

happened, an odd grin on her face as she covered her mouth with her hand and

laughed.

“Are you quite sure? Are there no more tests that you can run to make sure?”

“I can a*s*sure you, your highness, that the pictures obtained on the ultrasound were

perfectly clear. The baby, and your daughter, it seems, are in perfect health. Aside

from the small cut on her head.” He replied, trying desperately not to clench his jaw in

frustration.

This woman made his skin crawl. Now that they were certain that the baby and her

daughter were fine, the sooner they were both out of his ward and the hospital, the

better.

Narcissa flicked her hand at him dismissively, waving him away rudely and though he

was annoyed at her arrogance, he turned and left, his fingers gripping the electronic

register in his hand tightly.

Narcissa closed her eyes and exhaled deeply, counting to ten slowly in her head as

she thought of all the ways that her daughter had sabotaged her carefully laid plans.

Her reputation within the coven was ruined beyond repair and if she didn’t fix it soon,

she could very well end up paying with her life.

This peace offering had been a last-ditch attempt at trying to get Ann at least to a

point where she wouldn’t be prying into her father’s business too deeply.

If she caught even the slightest whiff of what Narcissa had done all those years ago,

and continued to do daily, she knew that Ann would stop at nothing until she was

f0rced out of the palace.

It had been a delicate balance that she struggled with daily as she tried to balance her

own daughter’s failings against Ann’s conscientious nature. Ada was a disappointment

in every way.

Narcissa had often bitterly thought to herself about how much easier her life would

have been if Ada had shared at least a few similarities with Ann.

Every single day had been an excruciating struggle just to keep her daughter in line.

Every argument and drama she came whining to her with was so… pathetic and

irrelevant to the bigger picture, that Narcissa had wanted to throttle her on numerous

occasions.

But she had been f0rced to restrain herself. It would have ruined her plans completely

if she gave in to her sadistic and vengeful urges.

Ada should have been married off to Alpha Nocturne when she came of age, securing

the strength of not only the royal lineage and the military power they commanded

through Narcissa’s marriage but also the f0rces of Alpha Nocturne’s Dark Moon Pack.

He lead the most powerful Pack in the kingdom, aside from the Alpha King himself.

Their combined f0rces would have been unstoppable and an invaluable a*s*set for

what the coven had been towards for such a long time.

But her stupid daughter had to ruin it all and give in to her own petty vendettas and

stole away the perfect distraction for Ann.

Narcissa’s eyes snapped open and she gritted her teeth furiously as she tried to

contain her anger.

She turned abruptly and swept into the room, pushing the door open f0rcefully and

continuing through unfazed as it slammed against the wall of Ada’s room.

The loud banging of the door startled Ada and she visibly jumped, her hands fumbling

for her phone that she had lost her grip on.

She looked up at her mother with furious eyes as she clutched her chest.

“Was there really any need for that? I’m still recovering you know.” Ada protested

pitifully.

“Are you, though?” Narcissa snorted as she scowled down at her daughter.

Ada visibly blanched and swallowed nervously.

“I don’t… what do you mean mother? You saw what happened…”

“No, Ada, I did not and you are fully aware of that. Only you, and Ann, know exactly

what happened in that room and I’m not sure that I believe your version of events at

all.” Narcissa answered coldly.

Ada feigned an expression of shock and hurt as she covered her mouth with her

hands, but Narcissa didn’t buy it. She rolled her eyes to the ceiling momentarily and

glared furiously at her daughter’s guilty face.

“Drop the act, you stupid little girl. I can see right through it.” Narcissa hissed furiously,

sweeping her eyes over her disdainfully.

Ada seemed to shrink back into the pillow but there was no escaping her mother’s Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

fury, or her soul-piercing glare. “Did I not warn you after your idiotic little trick at the

banquet? Have you forgotten what’s at stake here?” Narcissa continued, the

dangerous undercurrent in her voice chilling Ada to the bone.

She shook her head furiously and bit her lip as she looked up at her mother warily.

“No, mother. I haven’t forgotten.” Ada almost whispered in a trembling voice.

“Then tell me WHY you keep disobeying me!” Narcissa roared as she slammed her

fists onto the bed and leaned over her imposingly.

Ada flinched and screwed her eyes shut as she held her breath, expecting the harsh

sting of a slap from her mother’s hands, but nothing came.

She tentatively opened one eye and exhaled slowly as her mother’s face sat only

centimeters away from her own.
