Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 122

122–He Has An Abusive Wife

Madeline:

“What the hell, Kaylee?” Graham snapped, clamping his hand over her mouth. “She’s trying to create distance between us,” he shouted while dragging her out of the room.

The second they disappeared, the room felt too small to breathe in.

I didn’t know where to stand, what to think, or how to stop the feeling of everything collapsing around me.

“Do you want to sit down? Take a minute?” Baxter asked gently.

“I want to get out of here.” I didn’t look at him. I just shook my head.

“I don’t care if the wind blows me away, I need to be out of this house.” My voice cracked as I grabbed for the door, but Baxter moved faster, planting his hand against the frame, barring the exit.

“The news said to stay inside,” he insisted. “It’s not just a storm, it’s magical. Weapons, debris, everything’s being thrown around. People are getting stabbed by flying metal. Dozens of casualties already. It’s a curse storm.” His words barely registered. I couldn’t stay here.

Not another second in the middle of these alphas tearing me in different directions.

“No, Baxter, you don’t understand.” I finally looked him in the eyes. “Getting stabbed would feel better than being in here right now.”

He inhaled a deep breath right in front of me. His hand slowly dropped from the doorframe.

“Then I’ll escort you,” he said quietly. “Physically. And I’ll make sure you get somewhere safe.”

He led the way while I followed behind him, walking anxiously toward the town where we would once again confront the disastrous family.

This time, when I reached the stairs, I noticed Lord Eldon standing by the door, arms folded across his chest.

The minute Baxter reached the last step, he pointed at the old man.

“Not a single word,” he warned him.

I noticed the way Lord Eldon frowned at Baxter.

“How are you speaking to me, young lad? Did she make you forget how to respect your elders?” he asked.

“After just a few minutes of conversation with her alone, you are a different man?” he retorted at Baxter.

“Already upset just because you felt a little disrespected? Don’t you think you give her too much credit for everything? she did not ask me to behave toward you in a certain way. These are my words. This is my decision. I don’t want you to communicate with her. Your son has already done enough damage to her mental health,” Baxter replied without holding back.

The mention of Graham, however, immediately brought a nasty smile to Lord Eldon’s face.

“Oh, so my son told you the decision? That he finally wants to do a DNA test?” he remarked.

As soon as he said that, my fist clenched. Graham had already taken a few steps ahead.

If he had told his father, it was essentially a done deal.

There was no way anyone could convince him to step back now. Even if he wanted to, his father wouldn’t allow it.

“She’s not going to speak with you right now,” Baxter said, pointing at Eldon.

“But she spoke with Kaylee. I saw her run into the room with her husband, crying,” Penny commented

“Is this what you have learned in the human world, Madeline? How to cause division between couples?”

I didn’t know what made Penny speak up. She usually never said anything.

But I wanted her silence, because, well, she made me laugh.

Before Baxter could respond to her, I gave him a hand gesture to indicate that I had it.

I stepped out from behind him and folded my arms across my chest.

“You’re the one who’s going to ask me what I learned?” I said, noticing her cocky demeanor start to crumble.

A slight tinge of embarrassment crept across her face.

“No, seriously. I just want to know how. How can someone have the courage to ask such a question?” I continued. “Standing right next to a man whose entire family she ruined.”

I taunted her and watched her eyes widen.

“And before you tell me that we are both wrong, let me clarify. I am not the one who asked for a DNA test. Your stepson is ruining my relationship with my husband. Tell me again, who is at fault here? Who is the homewrecker?” I corrected her sharply. Silence never really leads to justice.

No one is kind enough to take silence as someone’s innocence.

“You cannot talk to my wife like this, Lord Eldon hissed.

“Well, but can you talk to her like that?” Baxter remarked, putting the old man in his place by reminding him how hypocritical he was.

“And I must say one thing, Penny. It seems Baxter got the homewrecking experience from you. He is stepping right into your tracks. Not only is he ruining his own relationship with his wife, but he is ruining mine too,” I stated as I stared into her eyes. 1
