Twin Cupids at Work Daddy Come Home novel Chapter 525

Brendan nodded, agreeing with Sam. “Yeah, seriously, why should she get everything? You should come to the party too.”

Madeline pressed her lips together for a moment. “Aren’t you worried we’ll make a scene at the banquet?”

Sam shrugged, looking so sincere it was almost funny. “Honestly, we’re more worried about mixing up the real heir. Embarrassment is the least of our concerns.”

Madeline glanced down at the invitation in her hand, then looked up at the two men. She knew they probably cared about the Ballard family and wanted to avoid any confusion about the inheritance, but they definitely had their own reasons for getting her involved. They wanted her there to keep the other Madeline in check.

If she went to the Ballard estate now, neither she nor the other woman would have the upper hand. They’d both be sizing each other up, waiting to see who was real. Meanwhile, Sam and Brendan could just sit back and watch it all unfold, figuring out who was genuine and who was pretending, all while judging their abilities.

Madeline let out a quiet laugh.

She wasn’t the type to cause drama, and this whole situation screamed trouble. Normally, she’d stay far away from something like this. But that woman was trying to take too much, and Madeline couldn’t just let her mother’s things fall into the wrong hands.

Even knowing she was basically walking into a mess, she couldn’t back down now.

Going to the party would be a clear challenge to the woman at the Ballard house.

Noticing that Madeline was still hesitating, Sam spoke up. “So, what do you think?”

She gave a small, calm smile. “I’ll go.”

Sam and Brendan exchanged a quick look, both of them clearly satisfied. Sam nodded. “Great. The Ballard family invited a ton of important families this time. They’ve already booked rooms at a hotel for everyone. The banquet’s in two days. You should come with us now.”

Madeline shook her head. “I can’t just leave right now. It’s too sudden. I haven’t even told my family. I can’t keep disappearing on them.” She slipped the invitation into her bag.
