Twin Cupids at Work Daddy Come Home novel Chapter 294

"Why do you look so pale?" Julian frowned, his eyes scanning her face.

"It's nothing," Madeline replied, looking away.

Julian didn't buy it. He stood up, reached for her, and gently pulled her back toward him. "Are you hurt?"

Madeline wobbled for a second but brushed his hand off. She met Julian's gaze, surprised to find genuine worry there.

That concern didn't look fake at all.

Just yesterday, Julian had practically dragged her to get a full check-up, acting like her health was his top priority. But today, he just sent someone to attack her so badly. It just didn't add up.

He looked so confused and worried right now. If he actually knew what happened, there was no way he could fake that look.

If Julian really wanted to take her child, would he have to be so sneaky about it?

Madeline stared at him for a long moment, searching his face.

Was it really not him?

She caught a glimpse of a bodyguard nearby. Her eyes narrowed and she moved without thinking, striking at him with the edge of her hand. The guard reacted instantly, blocking her attack.

Julian watched her, clearly puzzled by her sudden move.

After two quick exchanges, Madeline stepped back, realization dawning in her eyes.

The people who attacked her and took her son weren't Grayson family bodyguards. Their fighting style was totally different.

Whoever had ambushed her fought like killers, each move brutal and meant to do real harm. That was the work of hired assassins, not professional security.

But those men had worn Grayson uniforms on purpose, just to frame Julian for the kidnapping.

The uniforms weren't fake, and the car they'd used was really from the Grayson family.
