Chapter 599

Chapter 599:

“Madisyn, eat up!” Elaine placed a generous portion of food on Madisyn’s plate. She said softly, “You’ve had it tough, but we’ll make it up to you from now on.”

Madisyn smiled warmly, responding, “Mom, I’m truly happy now. I don’t need any compensation.”

“Madisyn, it’s such a joy to have you back,” Glenn said warmly, his eyes shimmering with affection. Dane and Waylon also smiled at her, their eyes brimming with love.

Madisyn pressed her lips together in a smile, a wave of contentment washing over her.

After dinner, the family gathered around the table for a game of cards. Waylon, brimming with eagerness to claim victory, found himself repeatedly bested by his father and brother. However, everything changed the moment Madisyn decided to join in. With her presence, Waylon won a few rounds, his joy soaring to new heights.

“Ugh, Madisyn is my lucky charm!” he proclaimed.

Elaine watched from the sidelines, shaking her head in amusement.

In a family filled with sharp minds, there had to be at least one blissfully unaware soul. Madisyn was clearly letting Waylon win, yet he remained basking in the illusion of his own success, with a smug grin plastered on his face.

Watching Madisyn shower Waylon with kindness stirred a twinge of jealousy in Dane and Glenn. In perfect harmony, they teamed up and systematically made Waylon lose everything.

When Waylon glanced at his account balance, now reduced to a pitiful zero, disbelief washed over him. “That’s downright inhuman!” he exclaimed.

Waylon believed his father and brother had been ganging up on him!

As the night wore on, Elaine smiled warmly, urging everyone to call it a night. Madisyn retreated to her room and sank into her bed. Just then, her phone buzzed—it was a video call from Andrew.

“Happy New Year, darling,” Andrew greeted her. He was dressed in a sleek black outfit that made him look both handsome and a touch mysterious.

Madisyn’s eyes softened as she smiled. “Happy New Year.”

“When’s your family coming?” he asked, his voice carrying a trace of excitement. He had never sounded this eager, not even when negotiating billion-dollar deals.

“Probably the day after tomorrow,” Madisyn replied.

“Perfect. I’ll make sure to have a meal prepared for them,” Andrew said, his tone warm.

After a brief exchange, he gently urged her to get some rest.

Madisyn turned off the light and closed her eyes, ready to drift into sleep. Just as she was about to, she heard the soft creak of the door opening. It was her mother.

Puzzled, she wondered why her mother had entered her room now.

Before she could ask, she felt the familiar, gentle footsteps approaching her bed. But her mother didn’t say a word. Instead, she quietly placed something beside her, kissed her forehead, and slipped out as silently as she had entered.
