Ava looked like her mental health was doing much better. She greeted Madeline with a smile, “ Maddie,
you’re up. Pudding is so cute. I used to want to have a daughter when I got married, but I think having
a son isn’t that bad either.” Madeline smiled when she heard that. “Then give birth to twins so that you
can have a boy anda girl at the same time. However, just don’t complain about how hard it is to raise
children when that happens.”
“It’?ll be hard work, but the hard work is worth it since children are so cute.”
Ava smiled and teased the little boy in her arms. The smile on Ava’s face became much brighter when
she saw the little boy chuckling.
Madeline also felt very warm watching this scene. “That's right. You’ll feel joy every time you look at the
baby who came out of you. As long as the child is well, we, as parents, will feel that the tiredness and
hard work are all worth it.”
After Madeline said that, the smile on Ava's face changed slightly.
She was still smiling, but her smile looked a little sarcastic.
“But not all parents think so,” Ava said. Madeline paused for a while, then realized that she should not
have said this so casually. She had brought up a sensitive topic, and it upset Ava again.
Madeline blamed herself silently and wanted to say something else to comfort Ava, but Ava suddenly
raised a very unrestrained smile. “Maddie, it's almost time for me to go to work. But I still want to stay
here tonight. Can I?”
“Why are you being so polite with me? My home is your home. You can come and go freely. No one will
restrict you.”
Madeline got up and took Pudding from Ava.
“I'm about to go to Whitman Corporation too. Let me drive you.”
“Okay,” Ava replied with a smile. She seemed to be in a good mood.
However, Madeline was worried that Ava was just holding on despite her pain. After all, it was not that
easy to move on from the fact that her parents had voluntarily abandoned her.
When Madeline was sending Ava to work, she would pay attention to Ava's expression from time to
time. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
She knew very well that Ava was just pretending to be happy. Plus, Daniel was in such a situation now,
so it was really difficult for Ava to feel happy. After sending Ava to the lobby of her company, Madeline
did not get out of the car. When she saw Ava enter the door, she called Raegan to confirm that Raegan
was already on the way to the place where they had agreed to meet. Then, Madeline drove over
immediately.
About ten minutes later, Madeline arrived at a cafe.
It was working hours, so there were not many people in the cafe. Madeline and Raegan were sitting in
a corner.
The first thing Raegan said was to ask Madeline about Ava's mood. After knowing that Ava had gone
back to work, Raegan did not know whether to feel relieved or more worried.
Looking at the worried and sad expression on Raegan's face, Madeline was even more sure that Ava
might have misunderstood the so-called ‘ abandonment’ back then. If Raegan had really deliberately
abandoned Ava at that time, it would be impossible for Raegan to show such an expression now.
“Ms. Xander, I don't think you voluntarily abandoned Ava back then like how Ava described it. Can you
tell me what happened back then?”
