Twin Cupids at Work: Daddy, Come Home! novel Chapter 287

Julian didn’t say another word. He just turned and walked out. Madeline stood up, her voice steady but tired. “Julian, just think about it, okay? As long as my child stays with you, as long as there’s anything left between us, Helene won’t ever calm down.”

Julian left without looking back.

Madeline let out a long sigh, her face clouded with worry. She sat in the living room for a long time, lost in thought, before finally getting up and heading to the kitchen to fix herself something to eat. Not long after, Marian came home with Noah. Madeline glanced at the time. It was too late to head to the office, and there wasn’t much she could do there anyway, so she decided to stay home and spend the day with her son.

…

The next morning, before the sun was even up, Brenda yanked Madeline out of bed and dragged her straight to the airport. James was flying back to the country today, and they were determined to catch him for a brand deal. They were both running on pure adrenaline and hope.

They thought they were ready for anything, but nothing prepared them for the chaos at the arrivals gate. It was wild. Girls were screaming everywhere, holding up signs and phones, cheering so loud it echoed off the walls.

“James! Oh my god, you’re so hot!”

“Babe! Over here, look at me!”

“James, you’re the best! I love you!”

The crowd was a sea of excited fans, all losing their minds. James was surrounded by bodyguards, but even they were struggling to keep the crowd at bay. He could barely move.

Brenda had been hyped on the way over. Who wouldn’t be excited to see a real-life superstar up close? But now, clutching Madeline’s arm, she was shaking. “These fans are so scary,” she whispered.

Madeline looked through the mob and spotted James in the middle. He wore a black baseball cap, dressed sharp as ever, his expression impossible to read beneath the brim.

Seeing him about to head out, Brenda made a snap decision. She grabbed Madeline’s hand. “Let’s go,” she said, determination in her eyes.

“Wait, what?” Madeline barely had time to react before Brenda dragged her right into the crowd. It was chaos. People were pushing, shoving, and they almost got knocked off their feet.
