Alpha's Twins Chapter 303

Natalia's POV

I was heading to my house in Max's car. He was such a caring person. He only asked once about what I was doing at Adrian's house.

When I explained to him that I fainted last night because of a fever, he did not ask anything further.

He said he trusted me.

I turned my head at him. He was a nice guy. Why was I feeling like I cheated on him?

Last night, Adrian and I were really close to each other. Though he was just healing my wound, I did not think any boyfriend would take that lightly.

I did not say anything about that to Max. I was afraid that he would feel upset. He did not like Adrian since he was my ex-husband.

When we arrived at my house, I unfastened the seatbelt and got out of the car.

Max also got down and came toward me. He checked on my forehead and said,

"You don't have a fever right now. It's surprising."

He was right. After last night, I began to feel light and refreshed.

It seemed like that wound was the only thing that was causing me to lose my strength.

"You can rest the whole day after taking a leave from Liana. Tomorrow is the weekend. Do you have any plans?"

I gave it some thought and realized that I had already promised my children that I would take them somewhere.

"I am going to have a family dinner tomorrow with my twins. Would you like to join me?"

Max grinned at me with an assuring nod. "Why not? They are a part of your life. I would love to meet them again."

I gave him a broad smile. "Thank you so much for always there for me, Max."

Max chuckled as he said he found my smile cute. He leaned close to me and embraced me in his arms.

My hands froze in the middle of the air. I wanted to hug him back. But the memories of last night flooded my mind.

I recalled the warmth of Adrian's body and it shook me inside.

How could I think about him when I was with my boyfriend?

I curled my fingers into fists. Though I suddenly began to feel awkward, I hugged him back.

When I saw Max leaving with his car, I went inside my house.

The first person I met in my house was my father. He was in his and my mother's bedroom.

I saw mom was not in the room. I guessed she was in Jason's room.

"Dad."

I called him when I noticed him sitting on his rocking chair next to the window.

He stopped moving his chair and turned his attention from his book to me.

"You are back!"

"Dad, I was at–"

"I know. Alpha called me to inform me about you."

"What did he say?"

"He said you had a fever and were safely sleeping in his house. When I told him I was going to take you back, He said he did not want to disturb your sleep."

I frowned at my father's calm face and thought,

'Why is he so calm even after hearing Adrian's name?'
