Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 479

Madeline:

“Don’t look at me like that. I don’t want to become the villain. My daughters are already upset with me, and I’m trying to win them back,” he began.

He paused when he noticed the harsh look on my face had not softened. I did not care about his personal matters.

All I wanted was to bring my children here. Ever since I lost Gina, I could not leave them crying for long.

They needed attention. I understood why.

They had lost their sister and had not been coping well. Their father was in the hospital.

Their entire lives had turned upside down.

“Madeline, they’re different from my daughters. My girls are already confused and upset because of everything that’s happening,” he continued.

“I don’t want Elara and Bodhi to come here. Their arrival only brings trouble. I can’t upset my daughters,” he added, placing his hands on his waist and turning away.

I was furious, but I had questions for this man that I needed answered.

“So when you said we should consider being together again,” I began, dabbing my chin thoughtfully.

This conversation had happened two hours earlier, when he told me I was allowed back in the pack and filled my ears with promises.

“Did you think about my children’s future as well?” I asked, tilting my head.

Hope spread across his face.

“Yes, of course,” he replied, sounding optimistic, as if expecting something that would change everything between us.

“If you’re thinking about it, I’m glad,” he added.

He had taken it completely the wrong way.

“You know Baxter’s parents are already caring for them, right?” he asked.

I wanted to see how far he would go.

“What if we get them a mansion nearby? I can hire as many maids as they want. You can visit them whenever you like while staying here with me,” he proposed.

The moment he finished, I forced a smile. A smile appeared on his lips as well.

“I can’t believe you’re actually considering this,” he said.

“I’ll divorce Silver. You’d be a better mother to Hailey and Hannah than she could ever be,” he declared.

The audacity of him.

Not only did he plan to take his daughters from their mother, but he also thought he could take my children from me and decide who deserved to raise them.

“You know what? I only wanted to see how pathetic you are,” I stated.

His smile vanished completely.

“I’ll drag you beyond redemption,” I continued, my jaw clenching.

“No, wait. You’re misunderstanding me. I’m not saying your children would never see you. I’m just saying...” he rushed out.

I raised my palm to silence him.

“I’ll call Lord Jonah and tell him my children aren’t welcome here,” I said, striding past him.

He tried to follow me, but I moved faster.

“Damn it, I didn’t mean to upset you. Listen to me,” he called after me.

“When my daughters grow up, they’ll understand,” he insisted.

After checking another patient, I went back to the room where I had left my bag. Silver was standing right next to it.

She quickly pulled her hands behind her back. Without waiting for me to question her, she hurried out of the room.

“What were you doing?” I called after her.

She did not respond. She kept walking away.

I approached my bag and checked the files. Everything was intact.

I had no idea what she had done.

I needed to inform Elgin that the remaining patients would have to wait.

“If you want, you can stay and prepare the medicine,” he offered as I stepped out.

While walking away, I called a cab for me.

I turned to him in disbelief.

“Do you seriously think I’ll stay here while my children are waiting for me, Elgin?” I challenged.

“And even if they weren’t, I would never stay under the same roof as you,” I added.

He opened his mouth, clearly wounded by my words.

I checked my phone to see if the cab had arrived. At the same time, I opened my messages.

The last message from Lord Jonah made my stomach drop.

Lord Jonah: Madeline, I don’t know why I can’t reach you. Your phone keeps reporting as switched off. Elara had a bad fall, and I had to take her to the hospital. She’s been admitted.
