Chapter 1969 Did Not Want To See MeMadilyn didn't want the kids' information to be leaked on the internet.

As such, she shot them a look and shook her head before saying, “Don't answer him. You don't need to give an explanation. |had a lot of fun tonight, so let's end it here.”

The brothers nodded and proceeded to quit the game.

"You did great today, Aunt Madilyn. Your performance is several times better than before,” Benny praised.

A fuzzy feeling filled Madilyn when she heard the boy's sweet words.

On the other hand, Archie, who was more like Lucian, was seemingly deep in thought with a slight frown marring his brows.

After about ten seconds, he said to Madilyn, "Aunt Madilyn, you should practice using support characters in the future. It'd bebetter if you could become more deft when repositioning yourself.”

Thinking that his words made sense, Madilyn nodded her head in response.These two brots ore ot the top of their field no matter what games they play.

It was nine o'clock in the evening when Lorraine brought Estella downstairs along with a scented sachet that the girl had sewnfor the first time.

With a serious expression on her face, Estella uttered, “Aunt Madilyn, this scented sachet's for you. If you have a favorite flower,you can sun-dry it and put it in. I'm sure it'll smell good!”

Madilyn took the scented sachet and nodded gratefully. “You're amazing, Essie! | can't believe you're able to sew such abeautiful pattern on your first try. Just like your brothers, you have exceptional talent!”

Upon saying that, she scooped Estella into her arms and gave the girl a peck on the cheek.

Looking at the three kids, Lorraine couldn't stop smiling. She felt envious of Sonya and Elias for having such wonderfulgrandchildren.

She muttered, “Maddy, when do you think | could have—”

Before she could finish her sentence, her daughter cut her off. “Stop it right there, Mom! You really need to stop nagging meevery time you see the kids. |, too, would love to have kids, but it's not like | have anyone to have them with, you know.”

Sensing that her mother was about to start nagging again, Madilyn quickly took the kids and left, preparing to drive them backhome.

To reward the kids, she stopped by a dessert shop and bought all of them some ice cream.

Taking big bites of her ice cream, Madilyn made sure to remind the kids, “Don't tell your parents about this, got it? Otherwise,there won't be any ice cream for you next time.”

In response, the trio agreed to it heartily with bright smiles on their faces. They were well aware that betraying their godmotherwould mean missing out on many delicious treats in the future.

After finishing their cold dessert, Madilyn leisurely drove the kids home and chatted with them along the way until they arrived atthe Farwell residence.

"Mr. Farwell, all three kids are safely and soundly back home!” reported Madilyn.Lucian nodded and urged the kids to head upstairs, for their mother was already waiting for them to get in the bath.

Waving goodbye to Lucian, Madilyn got in her car swiftly and drove off before the former could react.

Lucian was just about to tell her that Jonathan was in the living room, sipping on some coffee while reporting his work.And here | was thinking of creating an opportunity for the two of them to interact with each other.

Upon driving out of the manor, Madilyn could feel complex emotions swirling about in her heart. Naturally, she had seenJonathan's car. However, for some reason, she felt a bit apprehensive about seeing him lately.

What is going on with me? Ever since the incident with Coralie, Madilyn realized that her feelings toward Jonathan seemed tohave changed.

She mulled over her feelings for a while and still couldn't seem to figure it out. Ah, forgetit. | should just go home and get back toplaying the game. According to Archie and Benny, | should practice using support characters. Ugh... it's really distressing that |wasn't able to get my rank up for several seasons now.

Meanwhile, Lucian had just returned to the living room, only to see Jonathan busy checking the financial statements.“Jonathan, didn't you notice that Madilyn was here earlier?” Lucian asked curiously.

“Is she? Why didn't she come in, then?” Jonathan's attention was immediately distracted from work. He stood up and lookedoutside.

Lucian shook his head, indicating that he had no idea what was on Madilyn's mind.

After pondering for a moment, Jonathan's face fell, and he murmured, “Does she not want to see me?”
