Chapter 371 Lying To Mommy Now?
Madeline knelt down in front of Colton. "It doesn't matter whether or not Mommy and Daddy are together. I will always be your Mommy. I will never leave you, Colt. Your dad won't leave you either."
"But everyone's Mommies and Daddies are together." Colton's eyes misting with tears softened her heart.
Thomas noticed Colton's hands behind his back gesturing at him and piped up, "My friends at kindergarten all have a Mommy and Daddy. Everyone lives together."
The woman carefully observed her children to see them watching her with expectant looks.
She began to reflect on whether she had been too selfish. Had she even considered her children's feelings?
They were only 5 years old. What child didn't wish for their parents to remain by their side? What's more, all three of her children are extremely smart and more intelligent than the average child.
"I'll think about it. Can you give me some time?" She asked sincerely.
Thomas looked bewildered. Colton, meanwhile, nodded.
Mackenzie went up to hug Madeline. "I don't care what Mommy's decision will be. I love Mommy no matter what. I just want you to be happy."
She always wanted the two to make up after being convinced by Noah's charm but her sole wish was for her mother to be happy.
The girl could see the struggle in her mother's eyes. What was the point of reconciliation if her mother remained unhappy?
She would rather remain as she was before with no father than have her Mommy cry day in and day out.
"Thank you, Zeke." Boys weren't as emotionally equipped as girls. Both Thomas and Colton genuinely wanted her to get along with Noah. To them, she would be as happy as they were once they got back together.
Mackenzie was different. She grew up alongside dramatized scripts and knew more about emotions than the boys did, making her keenly aware of how her mother wasn't ready to make up with him. Getting back together for the sake of the children would only leave her unhappy.
Her daughter had grown up and was thinking for her sake. The thought touched her.
"Mommy, come see my stealth cloak. It's getting too small. I can't fit into it anymore." Thomas was much less emotional. He was dragging Madeline to the research site when everything serious was said and done.
It just so happened that Madeline also wanted to go there to get changed, so she let him go.
After changing her clothes, Madeline hit the switch to open the door, but the heavy door refused to budge.
"Thomas, check what's going on with the security system. Why aren't the doors opening?" Madeline turned to Thomas.
Thomas avoided her eyes as he tapped away at the computer before closing them. "Our security system got hacked, Mommy."
"What? What's going on?" Her heart thudded, worrying that Trenton would come to the villa to retaliate against her.
"Don't worry, Mommy. Thomas is checking." Colton poked Thomas in the face and shot him a look that told him not to get in his way.
Thomas took a deep breath and began to mindlessly smash at his keyboard. This was his first time lying to his mother. Was Mommy going to get angry if she found out?
Madeline tried to call Albert but no one answered.
Did something happen to him?
She also tried to contact the security guards from Uranica. They reported that Albert was still tracing Trenton's whereabouts and should be on the read.
