Ran Away Pregnant Came Back Alpha Heiress (Amelia and Damien) novel Chapter 426

Chapter 426

Nodding, he backed out of the room, leaving me alone.

I knew his concerns weren’t unjustified. And Amelia… Gods, I was sorry to make her worry.

But this was something we would all have to endure and survive. So long as Claire and Sienna remained on the loose, I had to be diligent. I couldn’t give up.

Even if it strained my relationships with my friends and my family, I was doing the right thing.

Amelia and I could fix everything later, when she was finally safe once and for all.

Amy’s POV

Stacy and I continued to keep an eye on Mom, despite her having caught on to us. She had said she was the one who was supposed to be protecting us, but Stacy and I didn’t understand why that couldn’t go two ways.

If she was protecting us, shouldn’t we keep protecting her?

If Daddy was here, with his wolf so big and strong, we wouldn’t have to worry. But Daddy wasn’t here. Though there were lots of guards around, Mommy, Stacy, and I were mostly on our own. No one loved us like we loved each other, so no one would protect us as well.

Because of this, Stacy and I stayed around the corner, watching as Mom’s answered her ringing phone.

“Damien?” she asked at first, hope in her voice. Immediately, it fell away. “Oh, Keegan. I’m sorry, yes. Hello.”

Mom listened to the call for a moment. Stacy and I both leaned closer, trying to hear, but our wolves weren’t developed yet. We had little chance of hearing anything without the help of a wolf’s abilities. As we were, we were practically human.

Maybe even worse, because we were so small.

“So you did talk to him?” Mom asked. She made a few sounds of understanding as she listened, even as her face started to look pained. “He said not to worry?”

Mom looked down at the ground, as Keegan must have been talking more.

“That means he’s not coming here,” Mom said. “Did you tell him what I said? And that didn’t make a difference?”

Stacy and I looked at each other. Daddy wasn’t coming home.

“I see…” Mom’s voice sounded wobbly, reclaiming our attention. “No, it’s not your fault, Keegan. We all know how determined he is, and how stubborn. I’m sure he believes he is doing the right thing for all of us.”

Another pause. “Yes. I will. Thank you. Please just… let me know if you hear anything else.”

After Mom hung up the phone, she stared at the screen for a long moment, before sitting down on the couch and lowering her face into her hands.

She was crying, her shoulders shaking a little.

Daddy did this. If he was here, she would smile again.

Stacy frowned. “Daddy’s abandoned us.”

“No,” I said. I knew our Dad better than anyone, and I knew his love for us was strong. He wouldn’t just leave us. Not even if he had a good reason.

Thinking hard, I knew that the head housekeeper had a telephone in her office. Not a cell phone, but the kind that connected to the wall with a cord. Most of the servants left for the day. If we could sneak down there… if we could make a call…
