Chapter 108

The next afternoon.

Because Madison had an appointment with Amber for dinner, she left Rose Garden carly.

She had also informed Joe early in the morning that she was going to visit Amber at main Palmer residence. She would be back late tonight so they did not have to worry.

Joe was a little unhappy, but he did not stop her.

He thought about it carefully and found that the Palmer family had some credit for Madison not being kicked out of the Hale family when she reached the age of getting married.

If a woman who was raised as a rich young lady for the past fourteen years had suddenly been thrown out to adapt to the world, perhaps before she could learn how to make a living, she would have been kidnapped by human traffickers.

The Palmer family more or less allowed Madison to survive.

As for the injuries on her b*dy, it could only be said that the Hale family were too vicious.

Therefore, Joe did not have any objections to the Palmer family’s two elders. However, when he thought about Leo, Joe was a little unhappy.

Antoine remembered the Palmer family’s kindness and specially prepared a gift for Madison to bring over.

“We should have gone to visit her earlier. It’s really rude to delay it until now and wait. for the elders to speak.”

Anyway, Madison had received the Palmer family’s favor. The deceased Edgar truly

doted on her as if she was his biological grayer. Especially after Sally returned,

he treated Madison cu

better than before.

Probably because he knew that the people around Madison were starting to dislike her, Edgar was willing to dote on her more so that she would not feel marginalized.

Madison did not feel jealous in that environment. Instead, she reciprocated tenfold just because others treated her well, which originated from Edgar’s teachings.

Being reprimanded by Antoine, Madison felt a little guilty. “I’m sorry, Antoine. I didn’t think it through.”

“It’s not your fault. Actually, I didn’t expect it either, let alone someone as young as you. I told John and he reminded me to prepare a gift,” Antoine explained.

Joe was unhappy. “Why didn’t he remind me?”

Was John looking down on him?

He slammed the table. “Wait, I’ll go back up the gift too. I’ll get Madison to bring it over later.”

“There’s no need, Joe!”

Madison stopped him. “It’s enough that you’ve thought about it. Amber doesn’t lack anything. Besides, I haven’t told her that I have you so far. It’s hard for me to explain if I brought too many things.”

Joe felt that it made sense.

At the moment, only Antoine had come out to acknowledge Madison as his sister. Not one else knew how many brothers she had. It would be troublesome for her to bring more things, so in the end, they unanimously decided to only give her one gift.

Madison still felt that it was not enough. Before leaving, she borrowed Rose Garden’s kitchen to make two snacks and brought them along.

It was always different to make it personally.

Due to the fact that it took some time to pack the snacks and that the main Palmer residence was a little far, even if Madison got off work early, it was already dusk when she arrived at the place.

The people in the main Palmer residence could not wait any longer. When they heard. the sound of a car outside, they got up from their chairs.

“Madison is back, right? Oh, you’re finally here. You told me to set off an hour you’re only here now!”

As she spoke, Amber came out.

Behind her, the man who had been sitting upright on the sofa also stood up

and looked

out.

Leo seemed to want to follow her, but before he could come out from the sofa, he was stopped by Amber’s shout.

“Go help Maya bring the food out. Why are you sitting there? Madison is a guest. Are you a guest too?”

Leo moved his l*ps as if he wanted to say something. He looked up and only saw his mother’s back. In the end, he did not say anything. He pursed his thin l*ps and turned to go to the kitchen.

The main Palmer residence had a long history. It was considered an old-fashioned building in Sidovor City.

After Edgar passed away, the entrance was renovated. The big iron gate blocked the outside and surrounded the large courtyard in the middle. There were many flowers and plants planted.

However, the newly built iron door needed someone to pull it open from the inside and invite the guests in.

Madison had already arrived at the gate. Amber went to pick her up personally.

Before Amber got close, she could only see a blurry figure. But her smiling voice had already drifted over.

“Oh, I’ve finally seen you, Madison. I haven’t seen you for so many years. I missed you so much!”

As soon as she finished s

Amber, who was wearing a flapper dress, had already

opened the gate and invited her in.

“Look, you must have suffered outside. You’re so thin. Did you not eat overseas every day?”

Amber was as enthusiastic as she was. When Amber saw her, Madison was asked about how she managed through these years, and Madison felt even more guilty.

“I’m not skinny. I eat well every day.”

Madison’s heart felt warm. After following Amber into the house, she became talkative,

“It was dark outside just now, so I couldn’t see clearly. Now that I see you, Amber, you’re really getting younger and younger. By the way, my brother asked me to bring you a gift. You’ll definitely look good wearing it!”

It was a bracelet. There was no impurity in its emerald green color, and it looked even more beautiful under the light.

“My brother has something on tonight, so he didn’t come with me. Amber, don’t take offense. He’s busy with work.”

“Listen to what you’re saying. I didn’t even complain when you came to see me so late at night. I’m even overjoyed. How could I be offended?”

Amber glanced at it. It was something she liked. The smile on her face widened as she took out the bracelet and put it on.

“It is beautiful. Your brother knows how to pick things. This is the first time I’ve received a satisfactory gift in my life.”

The Palmer family didn’t lack things, but everyone liked gifts. Moreover, this bracelet was precious. Amber knew what was good and liked it very much.

Ordinary gifts were tokens of appreciation, but when something precious was given to her, Amber would be happier.

Amber could not bear to take it off.

Madison was a little embarrassed to take out her snacks.

However, she was afraid that the cakes would spoil, but she had made it herself, so she still took it out shamelessly and said, “Amber, this is the pastry I made. I thought that since my brother has given you something, I might make some cakes for you to try.”

“Madison, you haven’t come to see me for a while after coming back. But you’ve come back giving me so many things. That makes me feel embarrassed.”

Amber picked up a piece of cake. The exquisite pastry made her very satisfied. The flapper dress, the bracelet, and this piece of cake made her feel like an ancient lady with a good temperament.

She took a bite, satisfied and regretful. “We’re going to eat soon. I can only eat o piece.”

Madison was grinning from ear to ear. “I just made it in the afternoon. It can be put away for two days.”

“Alright, let’s go eat first!”

After exchanging pleasantries for a long time, Amber happily put away her things and placed them on the coffee table. She held Madison in her arms and walked towards the dining room. Amber could not help but complain.

“Madison, you’re hurting my feelings by calling me Amber. In the past, you were still willing to call me Mom before. Now, you’re calling me Amber before you get a divorce. It breaks my heart.”

Madison couldn’t respond to this and could only laugh.

Amber caught a glimpse of a tall figure in the kitchen and suddenly said, “By the way, do you want to reconsider what I mentioned to you last time? If you can’t be my daughter-in-law, how about you be my daughter? That way, you can continue to call met

Mom, okay?”

Madison still could not reply. Just as she was about to fool her, she saw Leo coming out of the kitchen from the corner of her eye.

She stood rooted to the ground, her words stuck in her throat, as if she had not expected to see him.
