Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 63

63–The Worst Sister Ever

Madeline:

“What are you doing? Have you gone crazy?” Yuvonne snapped at me.

But the moment she saw Graham behind me, her posture shifted.

She straightened, trying to look relaxed and soft, then cleared her throat to sound calmer.

“Sister, what are you doing here?” she asked, standing up.

Her tone was completely different now, sweet and polite.

She tried to hug me from across the table, but I stepped back and gestured for her to stay away.

“What happened? You don’t look in a good mood. Is something wrong?” she asked, glancing past me at Alpha Graham and raising her eyebrows. “Alpha Graham, how are you?” she greeted him in that same fake, cheerful

tone.

So I was right.

I used to think I was being petty for feeling jealous of her, but now I could see it clearly.

She hadn’t changed at all, still the same messy person as ever.

“Sherry.” I ignored my sister and turned to the reporter, folding my arms over my chest.

Sherry reached for her coffee, trying to sneak a sip, but I grabbed the cup and moved it to the other side of the table.

Her hand dropped back helplessly.

“Hi. Oh, it’s the two heroes,” she said, pretending she’d just noticed us. Then, awkwardly, in a low voice, she tried to mimic Yuvonne, “what are you two doing here?”

“Cut it out.”

Thankfully, Graham stepped forward and took control.

Both women’s faces fell when he began questioning them.

“So that sudden arrival at the wrong time was part of a plan, I’m guessing?” he asked, folding his arms.

His expression made it clear he wasn’t here to play around.

The deep frown on his face looked intimidating.

“What? Oh, what do you mean?” Yuvonne replied, acting clueless as always.

“I bet Sherry knows. How much of a coincidence is it that slie showed up in the same place as me and Graham, at the same time and just happens to be your friend?” I said, lielping them understand we had already caught on to

their act.

Yuvonne’s smile faltered before she looked at Graham again and forced an innocent grin.

“Actually, I’m getting engaged to your best friend, and I needed someone to cover the story. So I reached out to Sherry. I met her first through your interview.” Yuvonne made the introduction.

No matter how she explained it, I wasn’t convinced.

Graham’s arms slowly dropped from his chest, either at the mention of Baxter or because he believed her.

“Otherwise, why would I do that? And how would I even know you were at the cabin with my sister?” she said in a soft, convincing tone.

“So you’re saying you have no connection to Baxter’s royal beta, manager, no one who could have told you where we were?” I pressed, watching as Graham folded his arms again.

“I’m just-” she started, but Graham raised his palm to stop her.

“Yuvonne, I don’t have proof right now, but if I find out you’re playing games, trust me, I’m not Baxter. I’m not my friend who’ll ignore your messy ways or how much you hate Madeline just to keep the peace. I’m warning you. Stay out of her business and leave her alone,” he said firmly.

His tone made it clear he only tolerated her because his friend loved her.

Otherwise, he still remembered how horrible she had been to me.

Yuvonne didn’t like that. She looked around nervously, gauging people’s reactions.

I knew how much her reputation meant to her.

She always pretended to be innocent after doing the worst things.

“Let’s Go, Madeline” Graham said, gesturing for me to walk forward.

I followed him without a word.

Before long, we had left the café and were heading back to the hotel.

“What did you mean by that? You said the reporter was sent to spread news of our affair so that…” I asked, pausing just like he had earlier.

The moment we stepped into the lobby and walked toward the elevator, the thought returned to me.

He pressed the elevator button and acted like he hadn’t heard me.

“Graham, I’m asking you something,” I repeated, more stubborn this time.

My patience was wearing thin.

“So that, you know- so that your reputation is ruined,” he finally said, lowering his head to look at me.

His voice sounded tired, but I knew that wasn’t what he had meant earlier.

“Come on, Graham, tell me. What was it? Do you know something I should know too? I’d really appreciate a heads -up.” My tone came out annoyed now.

I was seriously tired of everyone keeping things from me.

“Fine,” he said with a sigh. The elevator doors opened right then, cutting him off again.

“Tell me first,” I insisted, stopping in place as soon as we stepped out.

I knew if we went inside, the others and the kids would be there, asking questions, and he’d avoid the topic again.

“You’re so stubborn,” he chuckled. When I didn’t move or look away, he realized I wasn’t letting it go.
