Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 461

Elgin:

I knew Silver would never let me keep my daughters. She would use their fear against me in the moment.

They were my daughters. They did not hate me. They were just scared because of what they had heard that night.

Now I was starting to wonder how she had the nerve to call me out for bringing the media that night, when she had brought the girls with her to confront me earlier. That was what made everything spiral.

So I asked Mathew to prepare the documents. I was going to make a will stating that my daughters had to stay with me because they would inherit everything when they turned eighteen. That was the deal.

If a father wrote in his will that his daughters or son would be his successor, the mother could not take the children away. They had to stay with the father and learn the alpha duties from him.

Then Graham called.

I was fuming at Yuvonne’s audacity in playing me. The words spreading about me were Sherry’s, and Yuvonne had fed them to her. Nobody would hate me that much over something so small.

“Elgin, I want to have a word with you.”

My mother arrived and sat on the bed. I remained in the coffee chair, staring out the window with the files in my hands.

“I know you are emotional and your ego is hurt,” she began, shifting slightly. “But if Silver started seeking justice for your disloyalty, she would expose your betrayal. And now you are keeping the daughters from her and refusing to return the pack.”

She was going in circles and making no sense.

“So what?” I snapped. “You want me to get scared and accept the woman who had someone inside her? I don’t even know which of my warriors it was. Was it an omega? A servant? It could be anyone. How do you expect an alpha to sleep with someone after that? She could be carrying that omega’s germs.”

I rubbed my face, growing more irritated as she kept telling me to forgive her.

“You were inside that slut once too,” my mother remarked with an eye roll, referring to Madeline.

“Well, first of all, she’s not a slut,” I countered. “Second, she’s special, and it’s different for me. And no, I wasn’t with her after my marriage. It doesn’t matter whether I tried or not. The truth is I was not with her.” I paused, feeling rage hit me when my mother mentioned Madeline that way.

“And I’m telling you, Silver has every right to leave me. She can go and fuck herself. I don’t care.” I shrugged and wrinkled my nose in disgust.

“So what are your plans?” my mother pressed, slamming her hands against the side of the mattress. “You’re going to divorce her, keep the children through some legal trick, and then what?”

“I’ll remarry.”

As soon as I said that, she narrowed her eyes and leaned forward.

“You will do what?” she demanded, struggling to believe me.

“Anyway, I see you’ve prepared the files,” she muttered as she rose. “Just get them signed. If you don’t intend to keep Silver with you, she will leave. And she will demand to take her daughters.”

She sounded defeated as she turned and walked away.

I knew I had disappointed many, but I would rise again. It was not over for me.

I was not the one caught naked in the window. Silver was.

Since I knew Sherry and Yuvonne were behind my slander, I would deal with them too.

I signed the papers and smiled at my own brilliance.

“Mathew,” I called.

He hurried into the room and gave me a small bow.

“Take these and submit them to the council,” I instructed, handing him the papers before stepping toward the window.

“And prepare a car for me. I’ll be visiting Ron’s pack today,” I added, smiling as I recalled the information Graham had shared with me in regards to Yuvonne and Sherry.
