Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 731

Elgin:

I knew it. I knew she would use her daughters as her last chance to save herself.

"Well then, as the future Alpha King, I'll find them a home," I spoke up, watching everyone smile at what they saw as my kindness, even though I had every fucking reason to leave those two little shits to fend for themselves.

"No!" Silver snapped, drawing everyone's attention. She still had the nerve to raise her voice.

"You all know how much he hates them. I would never trust him with my children."

Her words caught me off guard. The fact that she was still acting like such a bitch only made me angrier.

"And who will be the next council leader?" someone asked from the crowd.

At that moment, my phone beeped. I stepped aside for a split second as a message appeared on my screen.

Once again, it was from Rosetta.

The contents of the message changed everything.

‘I have to tell you something, Elgin. A few minutes ago, I received a letter that was probably mailed several days ago. It was written in secret by the council members. They voted for me to become the third council leader.’

As soon as I finished reading, I smiled. That meant my mother and Rosetta would choose the third council leader together.

I looked up, unable to hide my smile. Now I could appoint someone I trusted, someone I could intimidate through my mother and Rosetta's influence.

The third council leader would be under my control because I would have the majority of the council on my side.

This was the perfect moment of victory.

"Now, what were you saying?" I asked, slipping my phone into my pocket.

I smiled even wider because Rosetta's last message said she wanted me to be the voice and the mind behind the council leader. She told me she loved me and would support me no matter what I did.

Here I was, standing as the most powerful person. I straightened my shoulders, certain everyone had noticed.

Even Silver was watching me with longing, probably hoping I would take her back.

But that ship had already sailed. She had dug her own grave.

"Warriors, make her sign the divorce papers. Then take her and her father away. We have a new council leader to discuss."

I smiled with satisfaction.

"Wait! You can't do that! You can't listen to him! How can he be the Alpha King when he doesn't even have an heir?" Lord John shouted.

I knew they had been waiting to play that card.

What he didn't know was that I already had it covered.
