Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 585

Madeline:

"So, you are going to go and see him?" she asked, watching me quickly change from my nightwear into loose brown pants and a white top with a jacket over it.

"Do you think I should not?" I asked, watching her stare at me in confusion.

The thing about this family was that they were evil.

All I knew was that he could wake up just to kill me, or in his dying moments, maybe that was his last wish, to finally get rid of me.

So I was not sure if I should go or not.

That was when our phones beeped again. Both of them at the same time, and I realized Byron had sent a message in the group chat.

"You read it first," she said, gulping, looking at me like she wanted me to check it.

So I did.

"Are you coming? Lord Eldon is in a very bad state. He has asked many warriors to come because he wants to talk about something important. He said he has a confession to make about a crime he committed, a crime that an innocent person was accused of."

As I read the message out loud, I gasped more than once, showing how shocked I was.

I looked straight into Yuvonne's eyes, and she gave me a nod.

"I just have a feeling it is something important. If he is asking for you, please go," she said, holding my hands.

I knew why.

It seemed that the innocent person he was talking about could be Ron, because everything else had already been cleared.

Recently, we found out that the maid hired to take care of Graham's grandmother had come from Graham himself.

We just did not know how to find her or where to look to prove their involvement in the crime.

So this could be a huge turning point for us.

"You will go, right?" Yuvonne asked, and I nodded.

The fact that Lord Eldon wanted me there, along with the leaders, proved he was ready to do the right thing in his last moments.

So we were not going to miss it.

"You take care of my children, okay?" I said, gently patting her shoulder.

"Don't worry, I will be there with them," she assured me.

With that, she handed me a bottle of water and some snacks for the journey.

I noticed how excited she had been the whole time, probably because this was the moment when the truth about her husband's innocence would come out, and they would reunite very soon, just like Baxter and I would.

Yuvonne had called her driver to take me to the pack at this hour of the night.

There was a lot happening outside. A criminal was on the loose, and a storm was setting in.

"His condition is questionable," Lord William said, leading me behind him.

"Is it really true what everyone else is saying? Did he really try to end his life?" I asked, hastily reaching for the door.

Before I could go inside, he stopped and looked at me in silence for a few seconds.

"I'm really sorry for what his son has done to you." That came out of nowhere. I did not expect him to talk about it yet.

"Please forgive me. We were all fools who trusted and believed that man," he added, making me let out a small sigh before giving him a nod of understanding.

"You don't have to apologize. Their lies have always been very convincing," I replied before he opened the door to let me inside.

I was in shock when I saw him lying there, as if he were taking his last breaths. He was in a really bad state, to be honest.

"Madeline," he whispered through the oxygen mask, barely audible.

I stepped forward as Lady Abigail entered the room at the same time.

"I'm going to confess to the crimes I have committed." He started off strong as he took off his mask, as if he no longer believed it could save him.

He was an old man, so pale, and losing so much blood would kill him, which made me wonder why it had taken them so long to bring him to the hospital.

But I was ready for his confession.

I just did not know what kind of mess they had dragged me into that he was going to apologize for.
