Adeline felt really good when she boasted to Lillian and walked away.
She was chuckling as she walked towards her quarter. And she was mumbling to herself, "Oh, the look on her face when she realized that I was getting married to the very Devil whom she thought would have devoured me."
"I had never thought that boasting would bring so much satisfaction." She chuckled again and thought, "I hope that it will keep her awake for several days."
Her sense of satisfaction and victory was very short-lived though.
Her face turned gloomy all of a sudden and she prayed, "Let her rethink about the day that she had asked General Osmond to take me to the Devil's Cave. I hope she figures out how I was back at the Palace. And I hope that the General's daughter's murder will burn her from the inside. I hope each and every murder that she did will eat her heart."
Adeline reached to her room while thinking about all the things that Lillian had done until now.
