Chapter 203
Dylan looked at Elise innocently.
“Please forgive me. I’ll send you a set of my skin care products. How does that sound?”
“Well… if that’s what you said. I didn't force you, okay? When Maddie comes, you can’t go back on your word!”
“Of course. I can promise you that.” Dylan raised his hand and swore.
"That's more like it!”
Instantly, Elise was in a good mood. She had heard about Dylan’s research in the medical field. She believed his products were good.

However, as soon as Elise saw Madeline coming into the living room, she shook Dylan’s hands away and hurried toward Madeline.
“Maddie, what took you so long? I miss you so much!”
Elise pounced on Madeline and wanted to give her a hug. However, Madeline rejected her at once.
“Stay where you are and say what’s on your mind.”
“Maddie, someone bullied me. You have to avenge me!” Elise linked her arms with Madeline and grumbled.
“Who dares to bully you?” Madeline shook her head. She was speechless.
“Dylan! He ate all the food that I cooked and even slept on my bed. I pitied him because Colton was with him and had nothing to eat in the middle of the night. I wouldn't have cooked for him if it was not for Colton. I only cook for you, Maddie. You have to believe me.”
Elise pointed at Dylan who was lying on the floor. She put all the blame on him.
Looking at her bestie, Madeline was dumbfounded.
She’s really good at acting.
Nonetheless, Madeline was not mad at Elise for cooking for Dylan. After all, Elise was cooking for her son too.
“Dylan, why did you bully Elise? And why are you lying on the floor? Aren't you cold?"
“Maddie, she’s the one who pushed me just now!” Dylan said and pouted his lips. He refused to stand up.
“Okay, okay. Both of you have your points. But please, for my sake, can we drink chocolate milk and forget everything?”
“I agree!" Elise agreed at once.
“Me too!" Dylan muttered.
Looking at them, Madeline could not help shaking her head. She ignored them and went to look for Colton.
Madeline had not seen Colton for two days, and she missed him a lot.
Where is he hiding? Why is he not giving me a hand just now?
"Colt, there you are. Did you miss me? We haven’t seen each other for two days!” Although Madeline was grumbling in her heart, she missed Colton so much.
Madeline sat down on the sofa next to Colton and held his little hand.
Colton did not pull his hand away nor did he answer Madeline if he missed her. He handed her a glass of warm chocolate milk instead.
"Mommy misses Colt very much, you know?” Seeing that Colton did not say anything, Madeline could not help but sigh.
"Mommy, are you not happy?" Colton asked. He could feel that Madeline was not in a good mood.
“No! It’s all because Colt doesn’t want to talk to me.” Madeline pretended to be sad and sighed.
However, Colton remained silent and stared at her quietly. After a long while, he said, “If you didn’t smirk just now, I would have believed you.”
“Well…” Madeline chuckled. Colton was too smart. It was not fun at all.
Colton remained silent. In the end, he turned around and continued playing on his computer.
Why are adults more childish than children nowadays?
With that, Colton glanced at Elise and Dylan who were fighting with pillows in the living room.
They are more childish than Thomas!
Sitting next to Colton, Madeline felt relieved even though Elise and Dylan were still fighting in the living room. They did not stop after a long while.
Elise stood up and went to the kitchen. She wanted to cook for all of them.
Madeline volunteered to help. She wanted to ask Elise something.
"Elise, do you have a thing for Dylan?”
“Did you notice it? Do you think we’re destined to be together? I met him when I went jogging just now. Isn’t that fate?” Elise admitted right away. She was excited all about Dylan.
It seemed that Elise was in love. Madeline could feel it because she was just like Elise before.
Madeline met him, the man that she missed so much after returning to the Grant family. She fell in love with him immediately, and things began to get out of control.
At that time, Madeline loved him deeply. In fact, she loved everything about him. However, she only dared to tell Elise about it. Only Elise would listen to her stories again and again.
Nonetheless, he never cared about her. Just like others, he despised her.
“Maddie, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?” Elise asked when she saw Madeline was lost in thought.
“Nothing. I suddenly remember something from the past.”
“Noah?”
"Yeah."
"Oh, my God! Maddie, you’re thinking about him. You’re longing for his love!”
“Elise, actually, I envy you.”
“Huh?”
“You can fall in love with the person you like. Unlike me, I can’t do that. I will end up hurting myself.”
“Maddie, love is unconditional. You can always love someone that you like. Look at me. I fall in love with Dylan, but I didn’t force him to love me back. I’m happy as long as I’m with him.” Elise was bold and courageous in love. She encouraged Madeline as if she was encouraging herself.
“Really? You don’t expect him to love you back?” Madeline was uncertain.
"Of course, life is too short. We shouldn’t waste time. Isn’t it lucky that we’re able to find someone that we love?”
“Can we really do that?”
“I believe so!”
“Elise, Noah gave me all his properties. He also wants to give me all his money. Do you think he starts falling in love with me?”
"What? He gave you all his properties? Is he nuts? Oh, mine!” Elise was so shocked that she almost jumped up. Not only that, she almost spilled the sauce on the ladle.
“He even gave me all his money in his bank account last night.” Looking at Elise who was so shocked, Madeline hesitated for a moment before continuing.
“Damn it, Maddie. Can’t you see it? What do you think when a man gave everything that he owns to you? Do you want him to dig out his heart and make a ring for you to prove that he loves you?”
