"Excuse me, miss..."

Ariana turned, startled by the sudden voice. She had just gotten back from visiting a friend, only to find a ragged-looking man walking up to her.

He was a sight to behold, and not in a good way.

His brown jacket was stained and torn, barely covering a dusty grey shirt with old food marks. His green hat looked like it had been chewed by rats, and his red trousers had patches, tears, and mysterious stains all over them.

Ariana wrinkled her nose in disgust. Seriously? Who let this stray dog into the estate?

"Are you... talking to me?" she asked, pointing at herself. The man nodded kindly.

Was he a beggar? A lost servant?

But none of their staff would dare dress like this.

"I—I’m Beanos Adkins. Osvaldo’s uncle," he said, offering a small smile. "Can you tell me where to find him?"

Ariana stared at him like he was contagious.

"So... you’re the madman’s uncle?" she scoffed, folding her arms. "No wonder you look like this."

Her eyes swept over him again, even slower this time. "Is there a curse in your family or something? You Adkins people are always dirty, even though you’re supposed to be the richest in Owlsgrave."

She shook her head. "No class. No taste."

Beanos looked unbothered. "Is he still mad?" he asked, voice quiet.

Ariana rolled her eyes. "Do I look like a messenger to you?"

She pointed toward a tall, modern penthouse. "If you’re looking for him, he’s over there. But don’t expect me to get involved with that lunatic ever again," she said. Her last experiences with Osvaldo have taught her a huge lesson.

Ari didn’t need anyone to tell her not to get close to him again.

Just as she turned to leave, the front door opened and Abby stepped outside.

"What’s going on, Ariana?" she asked. "I heard voices."

Then she noticed Beanos, and her expression instantly soured.

"What is this?" she snapped eyeing the man.

"Hello, Miss Peterson," Beanos said, tipping his dirty hat. "I’m Beanos Adkins. I came to see my nephew."

Abby looked him up and down. Something about him didn’t sit right with her.

"Nephew?" She repeated staring at him. This man looked nothing like an Adkins.

The only family member Dewitt had ever mentioned was Darlington. And even though he was a family member, they had made sure to keep him far away from Osvaldo.

So where did this man crawl out from?

"What do you want from him?" Abby asked coldly.

"You should know Osvaldo’s under our care now. Until he’s better, he belongs to us. That’s how it has always been." Abby said just in case he wanted to steal the wealth.

"Yes, yes... My brother Dewitt told me a bit about that before he passed," Beanos said, voice casual. "May I have a private word, Mrs. Peterson?"

Abby hesitated. Her gut said no, but her curiosity said yes.

He leaned in, lowering his voice.

"I just want to ask a few harmless questions about my poor, mad nephew. You see, he’s been mad for twenty years already. Osvaldo’s condition is... becoming a burden to the family. He’s staining the Adkins name. So, we’ve come to a decision."

Abby narrowed her eyes. "What decision?"

Beanos glanced around, then leaned closer and whispered, "To find out if he’s still mad, and if so... get rid of him."

Abby’s eyes widened in shock.

So she wasn’t the only one who wanted the madman gone. But she wasn’t yet satisfied. Surely these people might have a reason for wanting him dead. If it’s the wealth they want, then she’s sorry, but she will never comply with their demands.

"You have nothing to worry about Mrs Peterson, we do not need the wealth." He said calmly.

A slow smile crept across her face. This was getting interesting.

"Ari, get our guest a drink. We’ll be in the garden," she said sweetly. "And tell Chris and Greg I’ll join them later."

Ariana nodded quickly, already praying this plan would succeed.

From the little she’d heard, she hoped whatever that man had come for would be successful. Not only will Penny be kicked out, but she’ll also become a widow. That is enough punishment for life.

Ari smiled.

What use is a woman in a family without a child? Ari thought.

No matter how society tends to evolve, certain rules just never change.

Penny might think she owns everything, but she’ll be so shocked at how they’ll steal everything away from her, and blame the madman’s death on her.

"I’ve heard everything you said Mr Beanos." Abby started.

"Yes, Osvakdo is still very mad and Violent, but that isn’t something we can tame." She smiled.

"But we have a tiny tiny problem," Abby said.

"What is it?" He asked.

"The madman is married to Penelope. You must know her now. The Bloodsworth only heiress." Beano’s eyes went wide. So that’s the relationship the girl has with the madman.

Oh, they were so toast!

They all thought he was her pet.

He could already tell how furious his boss would be now. Xavier Bloodsworth was a problem. He has been a problem since day one, and he would never forgive anyone who harms his child. This was truly a problem.

Beanos cleared his throat. "It’s not a problem if we make our work as clean as possible." He said. "We can just blame everything on her."

Abby knew it wasn’t as easy as it sounded. Penny may look fragile and soft on the outside, but she’s had a hard time dealing with her.

"For now, we’re willing to give a billion dollars so that you can execute the plan within a month. Would that be enough?" Abby stared at the ragged-looking man, offering her a billion.

Her family was suffering from a serious financial crisis at the moment. This money would go a long way. But how would she know they are legit?

What family would offer such a huge amount and still want her to keep the entire Adkins wealth? Everything sounded too good to be true.

"You don’t have to be scared Mrs Peterson. Name your price, and we’ll do whatever you want. But you must do a clean job. If you can take him out, we will be very pleased." He said.

"How do I know you’re legit?" Abby asked.

"Test me." He said.

"Five billion should be enough. Not only do we have Penny to deal with, we also have the Adkins lawyers." Abby explained.

"Done." He said.

"But you must carry out the plan within a month." He added again and Abby nodded.

"Alright. I shall take my leave now Mrs Abby. You’ll receive the money in 30 minutes." He said and started walking away.
