Chapter 281: Time To Mourn

Hunter's POV

I could see the disappointment on Madeline's face as she let go of my hold, and she turned around and went outside our room. I wanted to run after her, but I knew she needed time to let go of her anger toward me. I could say she went to his grandpa's study, and she asked permission from Hector, but I had already told grandpa never to allow Maddie to come with me.

I wished she couldn't convince Hector using her charm; I know Madeline; she can easily persuade me with her puppy eyes look; that is why I avoided her gaze when we talked about going back to our hometown.

I also asked Gina to advise Madeline to stay here while I was away. I couldn't risk it because I knew my father was planning something bigger this time after he successfully killed my brother and his wife, who happened to be my ex-fiancée. I talked with Calixto, and he confirmed someone did something on Parker's car, and it was one of my father's men.
