Pregnant With Alpha’s Genius Twins

#Chapter 96 – Rejection

Victor turns, slowly, to face Amelia at the door.

“Evelyn,” his voice is soft; he doesn’t look at her as he speaks. “Are they okay?”

He hears a huff behind him. “No, Victor, obviously they’re not okay –“

“Evelyn,” it’s a bark this time, his voice thick with command. “Do they need medical attention.” He doesn’t take his eyes off of Amelia for a second.

Evelyn pauses, understanding now. After a moment of looking over the boys, she answers. “No…no, I think they’re okay.”

“Good.” That taken care of, he prowls forward to Amelia at the door.

“Victor,” she says, standing up straight, her own face angry and stern. “This is a misunderstanding –“

“Enough, Amelia!” He cuts her off and her mouth snaps shut. Still, the stubborn expression has yet to be stripped from her face. He realizes that she still thinks she’s going to win this fight, stand her ground and have things her way. Slowly, he shakes his head and turns to the crowd.

“I apologize.” His voice is a resonant growl that echoes throughout the room. “For the disruption to the wedding. I know that you all traveled far and delayed other plans to celebrate this day with Amelia and I.”

Amelia too turns to look out on the crowd, her face turning a bit smug.

“I apologize, further,” Victor continues, turning his fury on Amelia as he says it. He wants to see her face. “For continued disruption to this wedding, as it has been cancelled.”

The crowd gasps, and Amelia snaps her furious face to his. She opens her mouth to speak, but Victor interrupts.

“Moments before she walked down the aisle, Amelia took it upon herself to lock my two children – my sons and heirs – into a closet in the Bridal Suite.”
