Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 545

Graham:

Honestly speaking, I was only worried about my father because Penny meant nothing to me.

If anything, what happened to her was kind of her karma for what she did to my parents, especially my mother.

After that, she did not deserve to give birth to children.

So yes, I was happy. But whenever I looked at my father, I became worried again.

I was afraid his health might deteriorate, and the way he had driven himself almost mad made it seem like that would really happen.

Then I convinced myself that nothing like that would happen. He would only grieve for a while, and after that he would be fine.

When I arrived at the hospital, I had to speak with the doctor because he still had not told my father anything.

And I knew my father was losing his mind.

It felt as if the doctor had been waiting for me because he was already standing near the door.

"I wanted to speak with you about her condition," I told him the moment I approached him.

However, he immediately opened the door for me, gesturing for me to go inside. I frowned at his action.

"Did something happen?" I asked, stepping inside.

I noticed Penny was kind of waking up. However, she was hooked up to all those machines, and it seemed like she should be resting.

"Why don’t you go inside and see for yourself, Your Highness?" the doctor replied.

The way the doctor spoke, with hesitation and a hint of fear, rubbed me the wrong way. It told me there was more going on than we knew.

So I followed the doctor’s suggestion and stepped inside. The doctor closed the door behind me to give me privacy. Then I walked to Penny’s bed.

I noticed Penny was not fully in her senses. She drifted in and out of consciousness. Through it all, she kept mumbling something.

"She is bad. She is very bad," she murmured under her breath.

She repeated the words again and again, and curiosity began to hit me hard.

"Who is bad?" I asked her, leaning slightly over her so I could hear her properly.

"Madeline was better. This is all because we hurt her," she murmured softly, and goosebumps prickled across my skin.

Hearing her name had always had a strong effect on me. It was not that I had completely moved on from loving Madeline. But yes, I had realized that the two of us could not be together.

With shaky hands, I pulled out my phone and started recording the confession.

"Say it all again," I demanded.

She glanced at the phone and immediately started speaking.

"She came to my room to ask me to convince you to adopt a child. I tried to make her understand it was not possible."

As Penny continued her confession through sobs and painful grunts, I started thinking about my life with Kaylee.

Okay, I knew she was annoying. I knew I did not love her much. But I had never thought she could be so dangerous.

That was when I began asking myself how many more secrets she might have hidden from me.

Because this was not something small. This was the attempted murder of the wife of an ex-Alpha King and a council leader.

She knew the children would die. Yet she still did it.

Despite how she cried and mourned her children, the thought would not leave my mind.

How far could Kaylee go? I wondered.
