Andrew was urgently dealing with emails on his computer when Madelyn got into the car.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
He turned to Roger, who was in the driver's seat, and warned, "Don't mess with her."
His tone was sharp. After all, Easton and the topic of having a child were sensitive subjects for him.
away from Part of the reason he agreed to set up a demanding studio for Madelyn was to shift her focus. away wanting a child, as lately, she'd been treating a blood clot in her brain while also being heavily involved in another child's issues.
Andrew worried she was putting too much pressure on herself, so he encouraged her to work to redirect her attention.
"Look at how protective you are. I can't even say a word!" Roger replied.
Andrew and Madelyn ignored him.
Andrew took Madelyn's hand and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
"Do you guys have a meeting later?" Madelyn asked.
She noticed Roger was driving, which likely meant they had business to discuss.
Andrew nodded.
"Yeah, we do."
"Then let's go home," Madelyn said after checking the time.
Even though it was her first day at work and she wasn't particularly busy, she felt tired. Unlike before, when she could rest whenever she wanted, she now found it inconvenient to do anything at work. Andrew agreed.
*Alright. Let's go home."
Andrew then called Kevin to inform him that they weren't heading to Moonlit Restaurant.
Madelyn felt relieved she had suggested going home after learning Kevin would be joining them. Otherwise, she would have felt out of place among the three serious men.
When they arrived at Serenity Villa, dinner was already on the table. David had quickly prepared it, anticipating their arrival.
Madelyn quickly ate and retreated to her room, leaving the three men to discuss business over dinner.
Once she left, Kevin looked seriously at Andrew and asked, "Has she really cut ties with Easton?"
Roger had been wanting to ask the same question, While abroad, he and Kevin had heard about Madelyn wanting to divorce Andrew and even attempted suicide because of Easton, The ordeal had shown how determined Madelyn was to leave Andrew and how important Easton was to her. But now, she seemed entirely devoted to Andrew.
Kevin and Roger, who hadn't seen Madelyn in years, worried she might not be the same person they once knew and was deceiving Andrew.
Given Elijah's constant scheming, if Madelyn were betraying Andrew, she could be an insider planted by Elijah and Easton.
Andrew nodded.
"Yes, she's
done with him
Despite Kevin and Roger's doubts, Andrew trusted Madelyn fully. With Easton openly involved with Elena, Madelyn seemed genuinely unfazed, which didn't appear to be an act. Kevin looked at Andrew seriously.
"Elijah is back in the country, and Easton is his son. Keep your guard up."
This was also a caution against being too trusting of Madelyn.
Roger agreed with Kevin. Elijah had used Easton's relationship with Madelyn over
the years to secretly steal many of Andrew's projects. After all, some projects that should have gone to the Garcia family ended up with Elijah.
Elijah was cunning, and Madelyn's sudden change could be part of his plan.
Roger grew increasingly worried and said, "Listen to Kevin. After all, Maddie isn't the same as she was when she was a child. Don't trust her blindly."
Meanwhile, Madelyn returned to her room upstairs. She planned to take a bath, but Carrie's call came in.
On the phone, Carrie complained, "Maddie, you're really killing me here. Jackson is now acting like he's going to murder me."
Madelyn gasped.
