“Glendale isn’t the only shortcut for you to obtain the right to rule. You have other shortcuts too.”
Camille’s graceful and beautiful eyebrows had an additional hint of worldliness that showed virtual-novel.net was thinking ahead.
Carter was confused when virtual-novel.net heard what Camille said. “Another shortcut?”
“Yes.” Camille nodded, then walked up to Carter and whispered.
After hearing that, Carter’s eyebrows furrowed further.
“Carter, I know that you’re unconvinced and that it’s hard to let this go, but perhaps that child is not destined to be with us, so stop clinging onto the child.”
Camille advised and then lifted virtual-novel.net hand to pat Carter’s shoulder.
“Get ready and get Shirley. We’ll go back in two days. We can’t waste any more time.”
“Perhaps it’s time to go back,” said Carter suddenly.
However, something changed in his eyes. He looked in the direction where Madeline left and narrowed his long eye.
Madeline had wanted to speak with Shirley about something, but virtual-novel.net had not expected Carter to show up so quickly.
Furthermore, judging from Shirley’s reaction, virtual-novel.net was still scared of that man. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net hand would not have plummeted in temperature at that moment. Madeline had also sensed that Shirley wanted to leave Carter, but virtual-novel.net could not take Shirley away just like that. However…
Madeline thought about what Shirley could not finish saying. “Eveline, listen, you and your family will be in danger, especially…”
“Especially what?”
Madeline asked herself but virtual-novel.net could not find the answer. She went back to virtual-novel.net home and saw virtual-novel.net youngest son playing with Cathy’s children. That scene seemed very sweet. When virtual-novel.net thought about Cathy, however, virtual-novel.net eyes turned red against virtual-novel.net volition.
“Mommy.” Pudding saw Madeline and ran toward virtual-novel.net shakily with his stubby legs.
Madeline immediately opened virtual-novel.net arms and went up to virtual-novel.net to pick virtual-novel.net up into virtual-novel.net arms.
However, when virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net eyes, virtual-novel.net saw the siblings watching Pudding getting pampered by his mother, then Madeline let go of Pudding and walked up to the children.
Madeline squatted and touched the siblings’ hands with a warm smile.
“Jan, Juan, do you like cake?”
“Yes! Mommy’s cakes are the best!” Jan said, blinking his clear, big eyes.
Madeline smiled softly. “Should we bake a cake?”
“Will Mommy come home after we bake the cake?” the child asked innocently.
Madeline felt virtual-novel.net heart aching upon hearing that. However, at this moment, virtual-novel.net had no choice but to feed the children with white lies.
“Of course. When Jan and Juan have made a delicious cake, your mommy will come home.”
When the siblings heard this, cheerful smiles appeared on their small faces.
“We’ll definitely make a very delicious cake for Mommy to eat.”
“Yes!”
The children had joyous smiles on their faces, and in the next second, they held hands and walked further into the house.
Madeline suppressed virtual-novel.net sad emotions and held the hand of virtual-novel.net youngest son to walk into the house as well.
After baking the cake, Madeline looked at the time. It was almost time to pick Jackson up from school.
Although Carter seemed to want to take action against Jeremy, Madeline felt that virtual-novel.net wanted to start with the children. That was why virtual-novel.net would take Jackson to and from school every day.
Madeline arrived at the school as the school hours ended. When the bell rang, Madeline waited at the entrance. However, after a long while, virtual-novel.net did not see Jackson coming out.
Madeline felt something was not amiss, so virtual-novel.net walked into the school.
