Chapter 478
Eloise and Sean had been worried that Madeline would not show up. When they saw her entering the living room with Jackson, their eyes lit up with joy.
“Eveline! Eveline, you’re really here!” Eloise walked over to Madeline in excitement.
Madeline looked at the bandages on Eloise’s leg subconsciously. When she saw that Eloise was still limping, she said flatly, “Mrs. Montgomery, you should sit down and rest in case your wound breaks open. I don’t want to owe you anything.”
When Eloise heard that, she looked at Madeline sadly. “All mothers would want their children to be safe and healthy. I’ll be happy as long as you’re fine. You don’t owe anything to any of us. We’re the ones who have wronged you.”
Sean nodded on one side. He was looking at Madeline with the same love and pain in his eyes. “Eveline, we’ve wronged you so much. If you don’t want to acknowledge us, then we won’t force you. Your mother and I are happy as long as we get to see you.”
After Madeline listened to that, she said with no emotions on her face, “Aren’t we celebrating Jack’s birthday?”
Eloise and Sean were taken aback. Then, they smiled and nodded.
“Yeah, we’re celebrating Jack’s birthday today. However, before the celebration, Jeremy has something to give you,” Eloise said as she looked at the man who was walking over with a cake.
Madeline knitted her eyebrows together. “I don’t want anything to do with this person anymore. If you asked me here just to speak well of him, then I’ll leave now.”
“Eveline! Don’t go!” Eloise stopped her. “Eveline, don’t be mad. If you don’t like it, then I won’t mention it anymore.”
When Madeline walked past him, Jeremy grabbed her wrist.
The warmth from his palm traveled to her skin, the heat spreading all over her body.
Madeline lifted her annoyed gaze at him slowly. “Let go.”
“Jack wants you to celebrate his birthday with him. As for my present, I trust that you’ll accept it one day.”
