Chapter 235
Then, a nurse walked into the room. “The police are here to question Chloe,” she said.
Mrs. Windsor’s stomach stiffened with fear. “Turn them away if you can,” she answered. “Tell them that my daughter hasn’t recovered enough to be questioned.” Once the nurse was gone, she leaned toward her daughter and began to speak in a quiet and quick voice. “The boy’s body was not found on our property. Deny everything. I’ve taken care of the rest.”
Chloe’s tense posture relaxed, but then her eyes darkened. “I’m going to get Kelly back if it’s the last thing I do,” she vowed. “That bitch almost killed me.” A wicked smile crossed her face, which chilled her mother to the bone. “But you know who I’m planning on getting revenge on even more than Kelly?”
“W–who?” Madeline said as apprehension bubbled in her empty stomach.
“Olivia.” Chloe said her name like a curse word. “I know that she is still trying to steal Ethan from me. I can feel it. I can’t believe that she had followed us to Luceland. She’s even more of a crazy bitch than Kelly is.”
Mrs. Windsor frowned. “Stop trying to mess with Olivia. She has the protection of Alexander Green for whatever reason. The Green’s are even more powerful than our family. And Olivia is clever unlike Kelly.”

“Are you implying that Olivia and Ethan could be working together?” Madeline asked.
Before Chloe could answer, her brother Felix entered the hospital room. Mrs. Windsor looked at her son with fear in her eyes. She hadn’t expected him to be here.
“Felix, what are you doing here?” she asked, her eyes widening.

Mrs. Windsor flushed in embarrassment.

He was staring at his sister like he’d never really seen her before. His hands were shaking at his sides and Madeline was scared that her son was going to attack Chloe. “You took a human’s life away from him!” He pointed an accusing finger at his sister. Then, his gaze swung toward his mother. “And you helped her do it! You two make me sick.”
“You always were the weaker sibling,” Chloe spit out, staring at her brother with hatred.
Felix advanced toward Chloe and raised his hand to slap her across the face. Madeline’s stomach lurched with fear as she shot to her feet and stood between her two children before they could get into a physical altercation.
“Stop!” she begged and raised her arms, trying to block them from one another. “We can’t turn against each other in a time like this. Family has to stick together.”
“Not if you two did something horrible,” Felix snapped.
Madeline put a gentle hand on her son’s shoulder, but he cringed away from her touch.
“I’ve consulted with Officer Warren, the police in charge of the case. He has assured me that without a body, he can’t make an arrest.

I paid Officer Warren to help erase the recordings that Ava and Kelly have that incriminate your sister and me. I’ve taken care of everything.”
