Loving Madeline-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 by 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-fianc??e. I talked with Calixto, and he confirmed someone did something on Parker's car, and it was one of my father's men.

I wished I had advised Rebecca to travel abroad and forget about our family, and I felt so guilty. I went to the nursery, and I smiled when I saw our son peacefully sleeping in his crib while his nanny was also sleeping on the folding bed.

I looked at our son for a long time, and I doubted if my dad was planning to kill us all, but I knew he would never harm my mom and Lily. But I asked grandpa Hector's help. My mother and Lily still needed protection, and I hoped he would not do something stupid during the funeral. I asked my mom to stay at one of Hector's properties in the meantime.

It was safe because grandpa's men surrounded the area, and I was so tempted to bring my wife with me, but I couldn't imagine if something would happen to Madeline. I'd rather die than see my wife get hurt by my dad. How I wished he was the one who died, I know it is not good to expect someone to die, but he had done nothing so far but threaten our family.

I wished Madeline didn't ask her grandpa not to file a case against my father when his men kidnaped her. He better rot in jail, or my brother could still be alive. I missed my brother so much, and I know we didn't get along because dad tried his best to manipulate Parker, and it felt so sad that in the end, my father still took my brother's life.

He asked his men to do something on his car, and Parker lost control, and I know what happened next; dad was heartless. I am having difficulty leaving Madeline and our son, but I needed to come home to Archois and be with my mother and sister.

"I love you, son. Whatever happens to me, I want you to take care of your mom when you grow older, okay? But I will try to evade death for you and your mother. I love you both." I talked to my little child, and I wished to carry him in my arms, but I didn't want to disturb his sleep.

I kissed my son's cheeks before I left the nursery room, feeling so sad that I was going to miss him and my wife. And when I got back, Madeline was still not around, and I could tell I had pissed her off; I wished she would come back soon since I was leaving tomorrow morning, and I hadn't told her yet.

I already informed grandpa, but it is hard to say goodbye to my sweet wife. I was walking around in our room waiting for Maddie to return, but I felt worried since she had been gone for so long. I walked out of our room; walked towards the stairs.

I had second thoughts if I would come after her to grandpa's study, but I hesitated, and I ended up sitting on top of the stairs and patiently waiting for my wife to return to our room.

I could see the surprise on her face when she found me waiting for her, and my wife was wearing a beautiful smile on her face that made me horrified. I felt so worried if grandpa allowed her to come with me tomorrow; I felt relieved when she told me she understood why I didn't want her to go with me.

When my wife kissed me on the lips, I couldn't stop kissing her back hungrily, and it felt so exciting to be making out with my wife, knowing anytime someone might see us, and before that happened, I picked up my wife and carried her towards our room, and her laughter gives warmth to my heart.

I made love with Madeline long and sweet, and I felt nervous knowing I needed to tell her I was leaving tomorrow.

"My love," I said after we both collapsed on the bed, panting after sharing another intimate moment.

"Yes?" She asked as I pulled her closer to me, and I couldn't believe I was still hard for my wife as I could feel her nakedness next to me, but I needed to stop since I had to speak with Madeline.

"I am leaving tomorrow," I said, and she slowly nodded.

"Of course, you need to be there to help mom process the important documents, and you need to go over the company details, and I could tell it would take a long time before you can come back, grandpa said, you don't need to worry about his company." My wife responded, and I felt so glad she didn't sound sad as she spoke to me.

"He will take over for the meantime; he missed working anyway," my wife said, and she was giggling, and I don't think she was feigning her smile because I know when she was faking and worried about something.

"Thank grandpa for me, my sweet," I responded as I caressed her face and kissed her again; and I knew I couldn't stop myself from kissing my wife every time we were this close, and I felt glad our love for each other is growing stronger every day.

"I want you to take care of yourself and our son while I am away," I said.

"Don't worry about us, my love; grandpa's men are all over the ground, and nobody can get inside unless your dad could afford to hire the Military force in Neospoli, but you don't need to worry about anything; the newly elected president of Neospoli is my grandpa's best friend, so I don't think Clark could penetrate here in Neospoli, besides grandpa's men are monitoring his actions in Archois at this moment," Maddie responded. I felt so glad she was now okay that I was leaving the following morning.

When I woke up, I could feel Madeline's naked body pressed against me, my arms were still around her, and she was peacefully sleeping; I didn't want to go, yet I needed to get up since I knew the Divenson mining company would collapse if my father would take over. I know he was planning to sell the company, and he was looking for the perfect time.

I don't want to give Clark the chance to make my grandfather's company go to waste, and I need to protect my mother's company until Lily is ready to take over. I know my sister is tough, and she is intelligent. She can stand on her own by the time she takes over, and I will make sure Lily still has a company to run after she graduates from college.

I kissed my wife after I put on my business suit. I will be boarding Grandpa Hector's private plane and report to the office immediately. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

"You don't need to get up, Maddie," I said when she was about to get up from our bed.

"I don't want to say goodbye to you downstairs, or else I couldn't go to the airport," I said, and she pulled me down and kissed me on the lips.

"Take care, my love," she whispered after our mind-blowing kiss.

"Yes, always for you, my love, and our son," I responded, and I got out quickly since the longer I stayed and looked at Maddie, there would be chance I would end up beside her on our bed.

I walked fast, went to the stairs, got out from the main entrance, and got inside the car. The driver greeted me, and he drove away from the driveway of Hector Grant's castle.

I couldn't sleep the entire flight since I was thinking about my wife and son and, of course, Parker and his wife. I felt tired from the flight, but I didn't have enough time. I told the company driver to take me to the Divenson Mining Company building.

"Hunter? What are you doing here?" Charlotte asked, and I could see the surprise on her face when I walked inside Parker's office.

"Hello, Charlotte, I think I should be the one to ask you, why are you here?" I asked, and my sister was speechless as she looked at me for a long time.

"I was the CEO of this company before Parker took over, and mom appointed me after our brother died; how come you are working when you should be mourning Parker's death?" I asked, and she grimaced.

"He is dead, Hunter, and he will not go back from the dead no matter how much I cry; life must go on," she responded.

"You can have your bereavement leave, Charlotte," I responded.

"You must go to your office if you don't want to mourn; leave everything to me," I said, and I could see the hesitation on her face, and she quickly got the long brown envelope on top of the table.

But I was faster than her, and I took it before she could take it from the table; I could see the horrified looked on her face. I knew right away that my father ordered my sister to undermine the operation of the company, and I couldn't wait to see what are the documents inside this long brown envelope. I felt so glad I arrived on time before they could do something to sabotage the company's operation.
