Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 473

Madeline:

The mother, Kaylee, and I stood beside the bed, watching the child closely.

He did not wake up. A frown formed on my forehead as confusion settled in.

It had worked last time. What had happened? Had my tears lost their power?

While fear crept in and thoughts of failure crowded my mind, Kaylee let out a soft scoff.

“Huh. That is why regular testing matters. You should have told us what you were mixing in that bottle of yours. See? You wasted time. You gave them hope. You cannot even do one thing right,” she remarked harshly.

The mother’s eyes filled with tears.

“I will go tell them not to bring any more patients. Such a disappointment you are, Madeline,” Kaylee added under her breath as she turned to leave.

I watched her walk away. Then I heard a small voice.

“Mommy?”

Kaylee froze mid-step.

We all turned toward the bed and saw the child sitting up, yawning as if he had only taken a short nap.

“Mummy, where are we?” the little boy asked as he climbed off the bed and hugged his mother.

The woman stared in shock, motionless for a moment, before wrapping her arms around her child and bursting into tears.

“My baby is fine. He woke up. This is a miracle. You truly are a magician,” she cried, praising me without restraint.

Relief washed over me and I exhaled deeply.

My gaze shifted to Kaylee. A bitter expression covered her face, and I struggled to understand how she could resent a child’s recovery.

“Well, it seems you should not make that call,” I told Kaylee, giving her a pout. “Or maybe you should, and let them know it worked. You are always eager to announce my victories.”

I brushed my shoulder lightly against hers as I walked past. The touch was gentle, but deliberate.

In the next room, I uncorked the bottle with steady hands and let a few drops fall onto the little boy’s eyes.

He woke up healthy and alert.

I exchanged a few words with his mother before heading to the third room.

The third child recovered as well. By then, I was certain the treatment was working.

I decided to return to my children for a while as we waited for more patients.

Just as I stepped out of the third room, a sharp yelp echoed through the house. A plate crashed and shattered near the bottom of the staircase.

I hurried toward the noise and caught sight of Kaylee rushing toward her room. She appeared unharmed.

Then what had happened?

I stepped into the hallway and saw Penny sitting on the last stair, clutching her ankle, tears streaming down her face.

“What the hell? Is nobody here to help me?” she screamed in pain.

I glanced around, but no maid was in sight.
