Chapter 996

Chapter 996:

Madisyn surmised that the banquet likely felt less like an opportunity for Waylon and more like a burden.

Waylon’s decision to step away from his superstar life was because of her.

As his family, Madisyn felt it was her responsibility to ensure he faced no unnecessary hardships when she could help.

She wanted modeling to be a passion for Waylon, not a burden. With a reassuring smile, Madisyn told Waylon, “Waylon, Uncle Luka’s fashion show is already signing contracts with models. You mustn’t forget to visit him in the next couple of days. I can’t wait to see you on that runway. I wouldn’t miss it for the world.”

Madisyn understood the potential of the Timeless Elegance show. It was the perfect platform for Waylon to get closer to his goal of becoming a top model, and having a former superstar like Waylon on stage would add even more value to Luka’s event.

Both Waylon and Luka deserved to reach the pinnacle of their careers!

Waylon remembered the fashion show Madisyn had mentioned earlier.

The frown etched between his brows softened noticeably. “I’ll visit Uncle Luka tomorrow,” he said.

As they spoke, Andrew’s car pulled into the garage.

He stepped out, walked behind Madisyn, and glanced up at Waylon, who was standing on the balcony. Andrew gave a subtle, emotionless nod—his unique way of greeting a close friend.

“You’re back.”

Hearing the noise behind her, Madisyn turned. Her eyes brightened the moment she saw Andrew.

“Yes,” Andrew replied, a faint smile curling his lips. In his deep, soothing voice, he added, “I came back early just to cook for you, sweetheart.”

Waylon had been in a pleasant mood, but Andrew’s sweet words soured it instantly.

Andrew, his good friend, had already “stolen” his beloved sister—a fact that still grated on him. Now, Andrew had the audacity to display their romance right in front of him.

Waylon couldn’t help but feel bitter. He was the only single man left in the Johns family, and this was infuriating.

Madisyn, spoiled by Andrew’s culinary skills, lit up at his words and nodded enthusiastically.

She then turned to Waylon and asked politely, “Waylon, you haven’t had dinner yet, have you? Why don’t you join us? Andrew’s cooking is excellent.”

As she extended the invitation, Andrew stood silently by her side, his expression unreadable.

Knowing Andrew would be the one cooking, Waylon was briefly tempted. However, as his gaze lingered on the intimate atmosphere between them, he quickly suppressed the thought. Madisyn and Andrew were both busy with work, and their time together after hours was precious. He shouldn’t disturb them.
