All Chapters of The Alpha Billionaire's Accidental Omega Nanny: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Maddox POV"Maddox."The study door burst open before I could move, and within seconds I was enveloped in a woman's arms, her perfume overwhelming and almost making me gag.I looked at the time and then down at Celeste, my eyes narrowing as I slowly pushed her away from me."Do you have any idea what time it is?"She pouted at me. "I went and had some time with the girls. You're not my keeper," she teased, sitting down in the chair and hooking one ankle over the other. She leaned back, looking thoroughly relaxed."You're meant to be recovering. Where's your crutch or cane?" I folded my arms over my chest.She blinked and then gave a lazy smile."Oh, that. I healed a lot quicker than I anticipated. I'm fine now. No problems whatsoever," she emphasized."So you no longer need Ivy's services as a nursemaid," I said irritably, "and you're not exactly as impaired as you made it out to be.""Oh, Maddox, don't be like that. I genuinely thought it was going to take longer. As for Ivy, she's

Maddox POVMy lips still tingle where I kissed her. The memory of her lips, the way she tasted, and the little moans she made are all still vivid inside my mind. I should never have given in to temptation because now I could not get Ivy Hart out of my head. "Maddox," Celeste put a gentle hand on my arm, causing me to look at her. "Where is your head? You're so distracted. Are you still thinking about what happened at the amusement park? Are you worried about Rosalie because she seems perfectly fine?"I was thinking about the amusement park, but I didn't dare tell that to Celeste. She could not find out about that kiss. I had already seen how possessive she was of me, and if she found out that I had crossed the line with Ivy, it was sure to end in disaster.I exhaled."I'm just preoccupied with work stuff. It has nothing to do with the amusement park.""You shouldn't have let Ivy pressure you into going. Not when your work is so important. Maddox, you're indulging her too much and all

Third-person POVThis was it, the moment Celeste had been waiting for. The opportunity to finally show Ivy how little she meant to Maddox and be rid of her once and for all. If Maddox stopped trusting that irritating woman, then Celeste would finally be rid of one nuisance. Then it would be time to get rid of that annoying brat Rosalie. She smiled coldly, staring out the window of the limousine, her hand tightly holding her phone out of view, her fingers tapping out one message.It's time. I've waited long enough. Have the men appear at Luxe Jewellers. Make sure there are no mistakes; I can't afford for Maddox to become suspicious. If Rosalie gets harmed, all the better.Callan's reply came seconds later. She hastily covered the notification with her hand as Maddox glanced at her."What's that?" he asked. "Who's messaging?"Celeste quickly smiled at him, pretending nothing was amiss."It's just work. I accidentally forgot to leave out a file, and a colleague is asking where it is," sh

Maddox POV"Maddox, I was so scared," Celeste sobbed, reaching out and grabbing my hand. "I thought we were all going to die. Thank god you protected us; we might not have survived otherwise."She was hooked up to an IV, her complexion pale, her hair loose and dishevelled, and her clothes rumpled. She was a pitiful sight.My thoughts went back to Ivy. "Ivy helped too. If she hadn't assisted, then in all likelihood they might have managed to get away with my daughter," I said darkly.Celeste looked away, eyes shimmering."Of course. We owe a lot to Ivy. I'm just so sorry about how useless I proved to be. I just froze," she hiccuped. "I just stood there like an idiot. I should have done more. I'm so ashamed."My eyes softened."You were scared. It's understandable. I don't blame you, Celeste. I'm grateful that everybody is alright."She gave me a tremulous smile."What did they want?" she whispered. "I don't understand why there was a sudden attack. It was almost like..." She paused an

Maddox POVIt was past midnight when I received the phone call. Now I stood in the hospital, my look so dark that security flinched and the hospital director looked as though he'd rather be anywhere else than answer to me. "Explain," I said tersely, "explain how you failed to recognize a threat in your own hospital and how my daughter's nanny, somebody I care about, was almost killed as a result."The director shook in his boots."Alpha Maddox, we have no excuses. What happened is unacceptable. We've handed over all footage to your people and will, of course, cooperate with the investigation. The authorities have the surveillance as well."I said nothing. I was so angry that my wolf wanted to shift and tear the building into pieces."What about Celeste? Did anybody attempt to harm her?"The director shook his head immediately. "Both women are in a different wing. Your fiancée is perfectly fine. She has security guards that have been assigned to her. Nobody is getting in that room ex
