Chapter 212

Chapter 212:

Susan was so calm on the other end of the line that Madisyn began to wonder if she had only overthought things.

“Maybe. How have you been doing recently? We haven’t seen each other for a while. I’m sorry; I’ve been busy with the entertainment company and barely get free time.”

“I’m doing well,” Susan answered. She pursed her lips and added, “Madisyn, I’m sorry. I may have to leave the company.”

“What? Why so sudden?”

“Yeah. I also don’t want to, but something is going on at home, and I need to be there,” Susan replied softly.

Madisyn wanted to ask what was going on, but sensing that Susan’s mood was a bit unusual, she swallowed her words. She didn’t know much about Susan’s family situation, but she could tell that Susan came from a relatively poor background. After all, Susan had been working part-time since high school.

“Alright. If that’s your final decision, I support you. But if you need any help, you must tell me, okay?” Madisyn said with a solemn expression.

“Okay. But don’t worry about me. I can manage. I’ll take care of myself,” Susan assured Madisyn with a smile. They talked for a while before hanging up together. It seemed nothing had been revealed.

Madisyn decided to let it go. If Susan was really with her brother, there must be a reason why Susan didn’t tell her. Besides, it was their private affair; she couldn’t interfere.

The next day, Madisyn didn’t get up at the usual time. It was the weekend, and she didn’t need to go to work. Since Madisyn woke up on the right side of the bed, she was in a good mood. Besides, she would meet Andrew today.

After breakfast, Madisyn prepared to pick up Andrew at the airport. But before she could leave, she received a call from him. It turned out he was already at the gate.

Madisyn was so happy that she immediately rushed out. Dane massaged his temples, feeling a headache. While he watched Madisyn leaving happily, his eyes became deep.

Elaine noticed him staring ahead. She smiled and commented, “It seems Madisyn and Andrew’s relationship is quite stable.”

Dane just snorted coldly.

Elaine gave him a look. “What about you? Do you have someone you like now? You’re almost thirty, but you still don’t have a girlfriend. Your sister may get married soon. Are you planning to be the country’s most eligible bachelor all your life?”

“Mom…” Dane looked at Elaine with a frown. He was obviously annoyed.

“Okay, fine. I won’t push you. But you should pay attention to this matter.”

Elaine didn’t deny that she had been wanting to have grandchildren. After all, she was fond of children. So she really hoped Dane would get married soon and have a happy family.

After having breakfast with Elaine and Glenn, Dane left. Elaine couldn’t help saying to Glenn, “Don’t you think Dane is acting a bit strange today?”

Glenn was also a man. Naturally, he could tell what was wrong with Dane. “Let’s not worry too much about the children’s matters, okay? They are all adults now. We’ve done our part raising them, so let them deal with their own affairs. It’s time that we enjoy our own time, honey.”

“You’re right,” Elaine immediately agreed.

Madisyn went out excitedly. Sure enough, she saw Andrew at the gate.

After not seeing him for a few days, she felt like he had become even more imposing.

“Honey…” When Andrew looked at Madisyn, the cold aura in his body immediately dissipated, replaced by a warm, spring-like presence.

Madisyn smiled sweetly at him. “Come on, let’s talk in the car.”

Andrew opened the passenger seat door and gentlemanly let Madisyn get in first. Then, he turned to the driver’s seat and got in as well. Madisyn turned and looked at him. “Why are you here so early?”

“Because I wanted to see you sooner.”

Andrew stared at Madisyn with his dark, deep-set eyes for a while. Then, his greedy gaze moved from her clear, beautiful eyes to her rosy lips. Suddenly, he grabbed her chin.

His kiss carried a faint smell of mint. Madisyn’s heart raced wildly, as if it were about to jump out of her chest.

After an unknown amount of time, she felt like all the oxygen in her body was sucked out. Finally, Andrew let her go. Their gazes locked for a moment, and then he suddenly said, “Honey, don’t look at me like that. It makes me think you are deliberately seducing me.”

Madisyn was stunned. She looked at him with her mouth slightly open in incredulity. What was he talking about?

Before Madisyn could react, Andrew took her hand and asked, “Shall we go shopping first?”

“Okay,” Madisyn nodded.

Their date was no different from those of ordinary couples. Madisyn didn’t particularly enjoy shopping, but the feeling of doing it with Andrew was different. He never got tired of being with her and patiently gave her advice.

Madisyn looked around the store for a while, but she didn’t find anything particularly stunning, so she walked out. To her surprise, the sales assistant followed her with a bunch of shopping bags.

“What’s this? I didn’t buy anything,” Madisyn said in confusion.

“I bought them,” Andrew said, looking at her tenderly. “I saw you looking at them a few times just now, so take them home and wear them anytime you want.”

Madisyn looked at him and blinked a few times. Was this what wealthy people did? She was truly overwhelmed by his generosity.

Andrew gave the sales assistant an address and asked her to send the clothes there.

Madisyn said to Andrew, “I already have many clothes at home. There’s no need to buy more.”

“Don’t women always want more clothes?” Andrew asked with a smile.

Madisyn didn’t answer; she only pursed her lips. She remembered her life when she was with the Chapman family. Although she was known as a rich lady, she had very few clothes because Phyllis never bought her any.
