Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 107

107–My Unpredictable Husband

Madeline:

We had come to Ron’s place for lunch, and so far, everything was going well.

However, I had noticed a few things. One of them was that Sawyer didn’t seem very interested in talking to anyone.

At the same time, I also noticed that Lady Riva, Ron’s grandmother, wasn’t taking part in the conversation either.

I remembered the last time we met, she had been so eager to tell us stories about the wars and how she had fought in them.

Everything she said was filled with enthusiasm and intrigue.

But now, she seemed rather dull, almost as if she wasn’t enjoying herself.

She finished her lunch in silence, only speaking to me a few times.

Her words were mostly about illness, the children, and the interview we’d conducted yesterday with the child.

That was all.

The same woman who had asked for a drink last time didn’t seem to want one today.

The moment lunch ended, she began to prepare to rise from her seat, though she kept a polite smile on her lips so we wouldn’t feel awkward.

“How about I go and rest now?” she asked.

I noticed the way Sawyer rolled his eyes, almost as if he was thankful the meal was finally ending.

“Yeah, we’ll leave now, but thank you so much. It really means a lot. You didn’t have to do all this,” I told her, grateful to Ron’s grandmother.

Sawyer, however, didn’t even bother to thank her once.

“The food was good,” he finally remarked. At least he had opened his mouth.

“Thank you. I asked my maid to prepare it especially for Madeline,” Lady Riva replied, smiling at me.

Finally, now that the meal had ended, they were talking.

“Yeah, she’s special, isn’t she?” Sawyer commented, turning toward me.

I gave them a cheeky smile because his compliments were always so dry, almost like those trendy lines you see on

the internet.

“Yeah, she is. Madeline, would you please help me get to my room?” Lady Riva asked.

It was the first time she had ever asked me that, usually, her grandson took care of her.

“Wow, my grandmother seems to like you a lot,” Ron remarked, not sarcastically but playfully.

“I adore her too. She’s such an inspiration,” I replied instantly, standing from my seat and walking over to help

her up.

I held her hand and guided her to her room, which was on the ground floor just a few steps from the dining area.

Once inside, I tucked her into bed, noticing she didn’t let go of my hand.

That’s when I realized she wanted to talk about something.

“Don’t ever think you deserve any less,” she began, startling me.

I hadn’t expected her to say that.

When she stayed silent earlier, I had assumed it was because of me because of the recent revelation about me being a wolf, and the interview my sister gave about me ruining her engagement announcement dinner.

I knew Lady Riva was fond of my half–sister, so I thought that might be the reason.

I sat down on the chair beside the bed, watching her as she continued to hold my hand.

“What makes you say that?” I asked softly.

“I’m just saying. You know what? It’s funny that your husband showed up. All this time, I was probably just thinking too far ahead. I really liked you for my grandson,” she confessed.

Her words caught me off guard, and the smile slipped from my face before I quickly forced it back.

“That’s very sweet of you, but I’m sure Ron will find someone he deserves,” I replied.

Life is strange. There was a time when everyone told me I would never find a mate, that I would never walk down the aisle, never get married, never have anyone chase me.

And yet, here I was, surrounded by people who wanted me while I was already married.

After that, I said goodbye to her because she needed to rest, and then I walked out of the room.

Ron was awkwardly standing in front of the arrogant husband of mine, who seemed to be more interested in his phone once again, and I knew he wasn’t doing anything particularly on his phone.

It was just his way of avoiding conversations. I knew him very well.

It really did upset me. I gave Ron a head nod and then walked out of the mansion with Sawyer.

“How about we take a little stroll?” Sawyer asked, and I silently just joined him.

“The old lady, she seems to be fond of you,” he started, and I instantly did not like the way he was mentioning her.

“Lady Riva, that’s her name,” I corrected him.

“Well, Lady Riva is an old lady. Do you want me to lie and say that young teen is fond of you?” he commented, and I did not argue more with him.

I used to avoid arguing with him by just letting it go, but sometimes it gets a little too much.

“Anyway, what did you two talk about when you left?” he pried, and I realized he was curious about the conversation I had with her.
