Twin Cupids at Work Daddy Come Home novel Chapter 514

The Ballard family was like a prize everyone wanted; they were all waiting for a chance to take a bite. Taking it over wouldn’t be easy. It would take time. First, she had to make sure Madeline didn’t get in her way again.

…

Back in the Capital.

Madeline sat in the car, her head resting on her hand, her gaze fixed somewhere outside the window. She looked lost in thought.

Julian glanced at her from the driver’s seat. “Still thinking about the Ballard family?”

His question snapped her out of it. She looked over at him. “That woman who had surgery is Drew’s real daughter.”

Julian raised an eyebrow. “So you’re not?”

Madeline nodded.

He let out a soft laugh. “Then you should be celebrating.”

“Hm?”

“You’re finally done with the Monroe family. That’s worth celebrating, isn’t it?”

Madeline managed a small smile. “Yeah, I guess it is.”

Having a family like that had always felt like a curse. Now that she was free, it should have felt like a relief.

But…

She pressed her lips together and looked down. The happiness just wouldn’t come.

She thought she had a grandmother who loved her. Now, even that was gone. She had no idea where her mother was, and she didn’t know who her father was, either.

Madeline forced a bitter smile and turned to look out the window. The city lights blurred by until she realized something was off. She turned back to Julian.

“Where are you taking me?”

“The Grayson place,” Julian said, as if it was obvious. “You’re living there with us from now on.”
