Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 455

Madeline:

The family called out to Graham from outside, watching us with concerned looks on their faces.

It was a family of five, with three children and their parents.

"Yeah, wait a minute," the father said, gesturing with his hand before stepping closer to the fence.

"Hey, Madeline, is everything okay? Is he bothering you again? Let us know. Alpha or not, we know how to deal with men like him," the man added with a grunt, rolling up his sleeves.

The look on Graham's face said it all.

He had never been disrespected like that in his life.

"Now who do you think you are speaking to?" Graham grunted back at him as he got up from the bench.

I did not stop him.

I would not care if he made a mistake and got kicked out of the pack.

I stayed seated with my arms folded on the table, not defending his presence here.

Sometimes I felt like I was turning a little evil like them.

But then again, they had pushed me to it.

"Do not act like we do not know what you have done to her. You forced her to sleep with you or you would harm her husband," the man's voice turned harsh as he stated those words.

As soon as he said that, Graham's quick steps came to a stop.

He looked at the man, then turned to me.

I had no idea who told him that because I knew for a fact that I did not.

"That is not true," Graham grunted, but he was no longer walking toward the man in a threatening way.

"Oh please, we know everything. We heard the audio clip," the man replied bitterly.

"Daddy, please stay away from him, or he will come for Mommy," his little daughter cried.

It was heartbreaking, but the way Graham's body twitched felt satisfying.

I noticed the worried looks on the man and his children, and I realized I needed to put them at ease.

"It is all right. I am working on the case and the sickness," I told them, getting up and giving a gentle hand gesture to the family.

They looked at me with gratitude in their eyes, and then they all bowed together.

"Thank you so much," the father said while Graham walked back with his hands on his waist.

As soon as he sat on the bench, I watched him pull out his phone.

After the family walked away, I sat down again.

"I cannot believe this," Graham started to complain.

"What the hell is this?" he continued, checking something on his phone.

When he started to play it, I heard his voice and Elgin's from that night when they asked me to sleep with them.

"So there are possibly twenty children still asleep in my pack?" he asked after we went through the parents and how long the children had been sleeping and made a full list.

"Do you remember how you helped Hailey wake up?" Graham asked, and I nodded.

While I gathered the files, he continued.

"Is there anything you need? Any herbs or supplies?" he questioned as we finished up.

"I will prepare the medicine and test it on one of the children to see if it works," I replied without looking at him.

"Come on, Madeline, please do not be this way. I just want to fix things," he said, changing his tone as he leaned over the table.

His hands rested on the table, and his fingers tapped every few seconds, showing his anxiety.

"Graham, if you really do not want me to talk about what you did, then stop bringing it up with me," I replied harshly, giving him a quick glare before returning to organizing the piles in my bag.

"I understand, but I was just curious. Is Sherry in contact with you?" he asked.

I froze again as soon as he said that.

"No, I am just saying, is it not odd that Sherry is taking so much interest in this? She is not even considering that she is going after alphas. Why would she do that for you?" he continued.

His question was not just curiosity.

I looked at him and noticed he was not handling the information online well.

The fact that he asked me that made it seem like he was trying to figure out who was behind the rumors.

That was why he was being so nice to me.
