Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 816

Madeline:

I noticed that she had dropped my bag onto the ground and was now clutching the strap of her own bag, twisting it around in her fist.

I kept watching her. She looked so anxious.

“Livia, I’m not going to hurt you. You just need to tell me, do you have a wolf?” I asked, trying to approach her so I could place my hand on her shoulder, but she sidestepped, making me pull my hand back.

“I need to go home, please,” she requested again, this time more sternly.

“Mommy!”

The sudden interruption came from my children, who had returned with their babysitters.

“Yeah, we’re here,” Livia called out.

I stared at her, shocked by how desperately she was trying to get away from me.

And she knew exactly what she had done.

She had called out to my children so they would come to me and keep me occupied.

And that was exactly what happened.

Gina and Elara immediately rushed into the hallway and ran toward me, hugging me and telling me everything they had done at the playground and how many friends they had made.

While they surrounded me and I had to look away from Livia, she quickly slipped away.

I didn’t stop her. No.

She was a friend. I didn’t want to make her feel like I was trying to get her arrested.

I just wanted to know what was going on. I wanted to help her.

And I didn’t know why, but the way she rushed away made me worry about her.

I squatted down in front of my children, hugging them tightly before lifting them both into my arms.

They immediately started chattering in my ears about the new friends they had made and all the games they had played, and I responded with just as much excitement.

I settled them down in the lounge and gave them my undivided attention, even though the worry in my heart for Livia kept growing, which was very strange.

After everything that had happened, I really didn’t care that much about strangers anymore.

I mean, of course I cared on some level, but not to the extent that I would feel this much anxiety over their safety.
