My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson) novel Chapter 197

Chapter 197 

It started to snow at night. Compared to previous years, the snow had started later than usual in the capital this year. 

Madeline snuggled in her room, watching the snowflakes falling outside. She subconsciously walked closer to the window and viewed the scenery outside. 

Snow was uncommon in the south, but it snowed every year in the capital. “Wow, the snow’s really heavy!” exclaimed Madeline, feeling the cold when she touched the windowpane. “The snow is so bright white that it’s lighting up the night,” she mumbled. “Too bad the snowflakes on the ground are melting so quickly.” 

Suddenly. Madeline’s phone rang. She took the phone and, seeing that it was Cavin, answered it, “Hello“” 

“Maddie, it’s snowing” chirped Gavin, his voice was as bright and high–spirited as ever. He was laughing gleefully down the phone as if something happy had occurred. 

Madeline questioned hesitatingly, “Yes, but it hasn’t started snowing yet in Acocester, right?” She sat on a small cushion beside the bed with her arms around her knees. Everything outside the huge floor–to–ceiling window was clearly visible. The suddenness of having someone call and talk about the snow while Madeline was enjoying it somehow felt a little extraordinary to her. 

“Yeah, I made an effort to take a look at the weather forecast, chimed Gavin. “So, I know that at half past nine, there will be heavy snow in the capital that will last for three days.” 

“You know everything” Madeline couldn’t help snickering. “It seems like you pay way too much attention to the weather in the capital, Gavvy. It’s a pity that you aren’t a weatherman.” 

Gavin chuckled. “Open the window.” 

Madeline was stunned, but she had a gut feeling. So, she got up and pushed open the window. As expected, Madeline saw Gavin’s tall figure, standing in the snow, his gaze filled with rebellious spirit. Even from a distance, Madeline was infected by his joyous smile. Madeline was stunned as she exclaimed, “What are you doing here? Wait… When did you get here? Gavin, did you come here alone without saying anything to anyone!” 

Gavin smiled. “Tm here to enjoy the snowy view with you, of course. It’s the New Year in a few days, so I wanted to celebrate it with you. I hope that every year, I will be by your side, and you will be there with me, loo” 

Madeline didn’t dare to make a promise of the future. But after her rebirth. Caleb and the others had become the most important people in her life. She had no interest in pursuing anything else. As long as Madeline had the chance to live happily with them, she would consider it the greatest gift from God. 

Madeline was on the verge of blurting it out, but she felt that her words might be too sentimental, so she cleared her throat and said, “Ler’s wait and see what the future brings. 

The snor was coming down heavily, and Gavin’s thick black jacket was covered in snow. Even his hair was dusted with snow, making it tum white. He laughed and scolded, “You’re despicable” 

From afar, Madeline saw Gavin put his phone in his pocket. Then, he put his hands over his head and made a heart–shaped gesture, shouting, “I like the despicable Maddie. I love you!” 

Madeline burst into laughter. She couldn’t help shaking her head and snort. “Sweet words don’t work on me!” 

Pretty s soon, the ground was covered by a layer of snow. 

Gavin put his hands in his pockets, shrunk his neck, and started walking across the snow. 

Madeline propped her chin up and looked at him from her window, unclear on what Gavin was up to. She saw him walk in circles along the snowy ground, and before long, a heart shape started forming along the path Gavin had walked. He waddled slowly like a duck, making a deeper and deeper indent in the snow. 

“Maddie, this is for you. Your first heart in the snow crowed Gavin 

Madeline pursed her lips and beamed brightly, “Stop playing. You’re going to get sick if you play around in the cold.” 

“I flew here overnight and waited until it started snowing to come and see you. My love is enough to resist the cold” argued Gavin, sounding as 

relaxed as usual, 

Madeline took a photo with her phone. She looked at the picture of the handsome boy walking in the heart–shaped snow and decided to head out She put on her pink jacket and rushed downstairs to the yard. The moment she reached there, she couldn’t help shivering and groaned. “It’s so cold” It was even colder than Madeline expected probably around 20 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Chapter 197 

Gavin saw Madeline and walked toward her. He took off his gray cashmere scarf and wrapped it around her neck. She felt inmediate warmth the scarf wrapped around her as it had carried over not only his heat but also a faint whiff of the lavender bath gel he used. It was the same as the one Madeline had in her condominium. 

It seems like Gavin really did rush from Acocester, thought Madeline as she touched his cheek. She then lamented, “You’re freezing. Don’t you feel 

cold 

“Of course, I do moaned Gavin as he rubbed his hands before pulling down his hoodie to prevent the cold wind from blowing into his neck. His eyes were particularly bright under his hoodie’s shadow, even brighter than the snow. “Maddie, I’ll make a snowman for you tomorrow,” added Gavin before taking out a lighter and showing Madeline the sparklers under his jacket. 

“Why are they under your jacket?” Madeline laughed and poked at Gavin’s oversized jacket. “Are you my Fairy Godfather? How come you have everything in your jacket?” 

Gavin grinned. “I have a treasure box in my jacket. You can take a look if you don’t believe me? 

Madeline was skeptical and decided to get a closer look.
