435\u2013The Humiliation Followed My Friend\u00a0<\/p>\n
Graham:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is everywhere,\u201d my father commented.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The last time Elgin called me, I was half asleep.\u00a0<\/p>\n
By the time he ended the call, I did not realize I had dozed off again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I woke up in a hurry and remembered everything. The first thing I did was check the news to make sure he had not fucking done anything to Madeline again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When I thought about his words, I got the sense that he was angry at someone, and I put two and two together.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But what I found was completely different from what I thought it would be.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHe ruined himself,\u201d my father commented again as he checked the news on his phone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think that is Silver,\u201d Penny muttered as she zoomed in on the photo of someone pressed against a window.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course it is. Look, she looks exactly like Silver, but the person behind her is not clear,\u201d Kaylee commented, then she turned on the news on the TV.\u00a0<\/p>\n
We were sitting in the living room, and that was where we had breakfast too because the news was crazy. \u201cWelcome to the show. I\u2019m Sherry. Today we have huge breaking news, something so bad that it sets back the respect for Alphas,\u201d Sherry announced.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Beside her was a reporter. I think she was one of the women who had been at Elgin\u2019s mansion last night.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you have to say?\u201d Sherry asked the reporter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe received a call in the middle of the night from the very drunk alpha telling us he had something spicy for us. the reporter said. \u201cWhen we arrived at the mansion, we found his mate naked against a window, and then he tried to throw us out. There are a few conspiracy theories going around. One is that he was drunk and he and his wife are into something very kinky, and maybe he is a cuck too. So he was excited to watch her, but then he got so drunk that he called us to watch with him. I don\u2019t know, but he was drunk, so his decision came from a very disoriented mindset.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As the reporter spoke about the conspiracy theories, goosebumps spread across my skin. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
I bent my elbow and rested my fingers against my bottom lip as I stared at the screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat would be so nasty. But some people are saying he was very angry at first, and later he was found on an empty road near a rogue community, calling for his ex\u2013mate. Let me show you some of the clips,\u201d Sherry said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My spine stiffened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My father put his phone down, and Penny did the same as they watched the screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The first few were still images from outside the motel where he picked up Madeline and Elara.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I began to wonder if Elara was fine.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She did not look fine with the way Madeline was hugging her and crying.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThese are still images,\u201d Sherry explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then there were distant shots taken on a road where the camera captured Elgin dragging Madeline out of the car and kicking her out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There was also a secretly recorded video that seemed to have been taken hours later when Elgin came back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the video, he was screaming and crying while his bodyguards dragged him away as he apologized to Madeline.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, that idiot,\u201d my father grunted as he slapped his forehead.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you think he was apologizing to her for?\u201d Sherry asked the reporter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The reporter shrugged and gave the camera a sharp look.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMaybe he was trying to bring her into whatever dynamic was going on in the mansion, and he expected to have her there. But when he arrived, he saw his wife with someone else. I don\u2019t know. It seems like he wanted both women in the bed with him, but then someone else took his wife because he was probably not enough,\u201d the reporter said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The reporter kept talking, saying as many insulting things as she could.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOr maybe he caught his wife cheating, and then he decided to call the cameras and try to be sneaky. But then he acted like he was a very respectful alpha and did not want his wife to be seen like that. If that is possible, then he is a very good actor, because he genuinely acted angry after he called you himself. Correct? So can we trust his previous behavior when he acted so innocently?\u201d Sherry continued.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSherry is biased,\u201d Kaylee commented.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And it was not a lie.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sherry was Yuvonne\u2019s friend, so she would do anything to get back at us after we made her friend look bad.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut what are we going to do now?\u201d Kaylee added.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Both my father and I looked at her in confusion.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is no need to do anything. He is his own person. He fucked up. That is his fault,\u201d my father replied, giving me a hand gesture to show that I was not supposed to cause any more trouble involving Madeline.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut Madeline seems like a good person through all this which we need to change,\u201d Kaylee continued.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I took a deep breath and turned to her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cKaylee, I think it is time we stop mentioning her. Isn\u2019t that what you said too? And what does Madeline have to do with any of this? Please tell me. From the looks of it, it is pretty clear that it was Elgin\u2019s fault. Otherwise, he would not be running around apologizing to her. So stop fucking putting all the blame on Madeline,\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I do not know what happened to me, but I snapped.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I snapped so hard that Kaylee shifted in her seat and folded her arms across her chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNow, now, don\u2019t do that. Just because Elgin got punished does not mean you get to disrespect your wife. Do not forget, Madeline is not a saint either. She is a worse person. She hates your family. Do not forget that,\u201d my father snapped angrily. 2\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even Penny looked at me in disbelief for how I treated Kaylee, especially after I had just told her not to repeat the same mistakes others had made.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnyway, get ready. I do not think Elgin will be coming today. You have to come with us and convince Madeline to\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/4\u00a0<\/p>\n

work on the sickness,\u201d my father urged, grabbing his phone again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Penny and Kaylee both turned their heads sharply toward my father.\u00a0<\/p>\n
