Chapter 901

Chapter 901:

Sensing his emotions, Madisyn gently said, “Uncle Luka, no matter what happens, we’ll always be family.”

It was clear to her that her mother missed Luka deeply, and Luka shared those feelings. His eyes grew misty, and he nodded with conviction. “You’re right. We’re family. Madisyn, ask your mom if she’s free tomorrow evening. I’d like us all to have dinner together.”

As the elder sibling, he knew it was his responsibility to bridge the gap. A bright smile spread across Madisyn’s face. “Alright, Uncle Luka, I’ll ask her.”

Feeling that the matter had been settled, she took her leave.

Jared sat waiting for Madisyn in the car, a sense of unease hanging over him. He hadn’t anticipated that one of his subordinates would resort to such harsh tactics—especially when it concerned Madisyn’s uncle.

“Boss, I’ll make sure that person faces serious consequences when I return. Our group has no tolerance for coercion or deception,” Jared assured her.

Madisyn nodded calmly. “I understand. Just fire him.”

“Understood, boss,” Jared replied. Then, he caught a glimpse of a faint smile tugging at Madisyn’s lips. The sight left him stunned. After everything that had happened, how could she not be angry and even smile? He couldn’t figure it out. Keeping his thoughts to himself, he focused on driving Madisyn home safely.

Once they arrived, Madisyn stepped into her parents’ villa. Elaine, who had just finished setting the dinner table, lit up with joy seeing Madisyn.

“You’re home! Come, have dinner with us.”

“Of course,” Madisyn replied with a warm smile.

Dinner was cozy, filled with warmth and quiet conversation. Elaine asked curiously, “Did your designer friend end up working with your uncle?”

“Yes, everything is progressing smoothly,” Madisyn confirmed.

“That’s good,” Elaine said with a nod before adding, “Have you spoken to your uncle lately?”

“I have,” Madisyn replied simply.

Elaine looked as though she had more to say but hesitated for a moment. Sensing her mother’s hesitation, Madisyn said, “Mom, Uncle Luka wanted me to pass along a message to you.”

“What is it?” Elaine asked, her heart skipping a beat in anticipation.

“He invited us to join him for dinner tomorrow,” Madisyn explained.

The words left Elaine momentarily speechless. She had always assumed Luka wouldn’t want to reconnect with her. A wave of bittersweet emotion hit Elaine. Her brother must have missed her too, despite the years she had spent keeping her distance.

“Alright, let’s go together,” she finally said.
