Twin Cupids at Work Daddy Come Home novel Chapter 498

Madeline wanted someone to know exactly where she was going. If something happened to her, at least people would know where to start looking. After everything she’d been through, caution came naturally to her.

The elder paused, looking at her with a bit of regret in his eyes. “I’m sorry, Miss, but that’s non-negotiable. We can send someone to let your friend know you’re safe, though.”

He tried to reassure her. “You don’t have to worry about your safety. We will take care of you.”

Madeline looked around at the people surrounding her. “I want to tell my friend myself.”

He could tell she didn’t trust them completely, which made sense. After a moment, he nodded. “Alright.”

They brought over Celia. She looked anxious, grabbing Madeline’s hand with both of hers. “Madeline, what is going on?”

“I’m fine, really. They’re not here to hurt me. If Julian comes looking for me, please tell him I’ve gone to the Ballard family in the capital. Tell him not to worry about me.”

Celia looked like she was barely holding it together, but she listened and nodded hard. “I’ve got it. I promise.”

“Thank you, Celia.”

Madeline tried to calm her down a little more. The Ballard family’s people waited quietly, giving her space. Even when Celine left, she kept glancing back, clearly still worried.

Madeline turned to the elder. “How should I address you?”

He replied, “You can call me Maxwell.”

“Alright, Maxwell. Let’s go.”

Maxwell made a polite gesture, inviting her to move forward.
