“You don’t like these? I should have remembered properly.” Chloe muttered.
Chris clenched his fists, cleared his throat, and said, “These are all Andrea’s favorites.”
His words were like a sharp blade piercing Madison’s heart.
Look at that! What a loving mother.
She remembered all of her step–daughter’s preferences, yet she couldn’t even remember what her biological daughter liked to eat.
Madison wouldn’t have felt so bad if Chloe at least remembered one dish she liked.
She stood up and turned to leave but noticed the door of the first floor’s bedroom opening.
Hunter and Andrea walked out of the door one after the other.
Madison had known that the marriage between Hunter and Andrea was set in stone.
But knowing and seeing were two entirely different things.
She stared at Hunter, who walked out of the bedroom.
Their eyes met.
A hint of surprise appeared in Hunter’s eyes. He opened his mouth like he wanted to explain something.
But nothing came out in the end.
Chloe said, “Hunter, did you sleep well last night? If you’re not used to the bed, I can get someone to make custom bedding for you two.
“After all, you’ll be sleeping here regularly after you get married. Treat this like your own home. You can let me know if you need anything.”
Andrea also started to play her part as a loving daughter. She said with a smile, “Thanks for being so considerate, mom. It was true that we didn’t sleep well last night.”
A trace of shyness flickered across her face. It was clear that she was implying something else.
Madison finally understood why she was invited over.
It wasn’t that Chloe missed her. She intentionally called her over to intimidate her and scare her away from Hunter by making her see the truth.
It was so ironic.
Her biological mother was all smiles when talking to her step–daughter.
She remembered all of her step–daughter’s preferences. But she couldn’t remember her own daughter’s favorite breakfast.
Maybe her birth was an accident.
Madison used to think that there must have been some reason why Chloe mistreated her.
She thought all mothers loved their daughters. But now she knew that Chloe was not like other mothers.
It was because she didn’t love her. That’s why she couldn’t remember her preferences.
Andrea was the daughter of the man she loved. That’s why she had to find ways to gain her favor.
Madison looked at their family of four. She was the only outsider here from the start.
She realized that Hunter’s betrayal was not the most painful thing.
The most painful thing was the mother she had been missing for more than ten years coming back and destroying the illusion she had of her.
Before she could recover from that, her mother had hurt her once again.
She did it repeatedly. It was like she kept cutting into her wound before it could heal.
Madison withdrew her gaze from them expressionlessly. She couldn’t stand the sight of these people before her.
“Congratulations to you, Mrs. Davis. May your wish finally come true. Since you already started a new life, don’t come looking for me anymore.”
Madison turned around decisively and was about to walk away. Chloe anxiously walked up to her and grabbed her hand.
“Madie, you’re mistaken about me. All I am trying to do now is to make peace between you and Andrea. As Chris said, we’re all family.”
Madison said with a cold smile, “I am a Evans, not a Davis.”
“Madie, why are you still as stubborn as before? Why can’t you be more forgiving?”
Chloe reprimanded Madison with a stern expression, “You wouldn’t be divorced if you managed your marriage properly.
“But new Hunter is already with Andrea. You need to accept this reality. Stop holding on to the past.”
Madison was so angry she could feel her stomach starting to hurt. Her head was also throbbing.
She almost thought that she was hearing things.
Was that something a real mother would say?
Madison clenched her fingers and forced herself to calm down.
She looked Chloe in the eye and said slowly, “So, from your perspective, I am the one that’s clinging on to Hunter? Everything is my fault?”
Chloe answered without hesitation, “Am I wrong? I’ve heard that you’re still living together. Madie, do you understand the concept of a divorce?
“You’re still young, so stop this now. If not, you’ll bring trouble to yourself.
“You’ll also cause Hunter and Andrea to be mocked. There should only be two people in a healthy relationship.”
Madison was no longer able to tell if the pain came from her heart or her stomach. She felt like ants were gnawing at her, causing her pain all over.
Madison held in her sadness. She had so much she wanted to say, but instead, she smiled and said, “So that’s how I am in your eyes.”
“Mother, don’t yell at Madison. She’s still young, so it’s natural for her to make mistakes.
“We should tolerate each others‘ mistakes since we’re a family. I’m okay with it.”
At this moment, Andrea’s display of generosity was a sharp contrast to Madison’s pettiness.
Chloe said with a righteous tone, “Don’t worry, Andrea. I gave birth to Madie. I will give you a satisfactory explanation. I won’t allow her to come between you and Hunter anymore.”
Madison felt like all her organs were bleeding. She even felt the taste of blood in her mouth.
But she didn’t want to show her weakness to these people. So she held it back.
The taste of blood was spreading in her mouth.
She was about to speak when Hunter said coldly,” She wasn’t in the wrong. I was the one who wanted to take care of her.”
“Hunter, I know you’re a passionate and loyal person. You don’t have to lie for her sake.
“She has been a liar since she was young. I know her too well. She’ll do anything to get what she wants.”
Madison was clenching her fingers so hard her knuckles were pale. Even the corner of her clothes had been distorted by her grip.
She didn’t want to explain herself anymore. It was true. She did pretend to be sick once when she was young.
That was because a classmate of hers said that when she was sick, her mother, who was usually busy, took a day off to stay home.
She would take care of her gently and make her anything she wanted to eat.
That was why she pretended to be sick. All she wanted was her mother’s attention.
If only her mother would put her palm on her forehead. If only her mother would look at her with concern. If only her mother would ask her if she was well.
She would have been satisfied for a long time.
But her childish pretense was easily exposed.
She didn’t give up. She spent a whole night in a cold bath. She developed a high fever the next day.
She thought that her mother would definitely care for her gently. She wondered if her mother would bake her a cake.
She even decided on the cake she wanted to have. A teddy bear cream cake.
But when Chloe went to her bed, she looked down at the flushed face.
She said coldly, “Why are you pretending to be sick again? Why are you so naughty? Send her to school, Victor.”
“But Mrs. Evans, she doesn’t look so good. Maybe she is really sick.”
“How could she be sick? She is such a healthy child. She’s definitely pretending.
“You don’t have to send her to school today. Let her walk there herself.”
Chloe left after she said that. She didn’t care even when Madison was calling out to her with her hoarse voice, telling her that she wasn’t pretending.
She walked away as decisively as the day she left for good. She didn’t turn back even once.
She would’ve known that Madison wasn’t pretending if she put her palm on her forehead, but she wasn’t even willing to do such a simple thing.
When she was walking, Madison fell into the snow. She asked in a whisper when Victor carried her up, “Mr. Victor, do you think my mother loves me?”
Her words were heartwrenching to Victor. So much so that he almost couldn’t speak.
“Ms. Madison, there isn’t a mother in the world who doesn’t love her children.”
Madison’s face lit up. “Is that so? I didn’t lie to her this time. Can you please tell her that I am really sick this time?
“I really want to eat the teddy bear cream cake that she makes.”
I hate this whole family. Hunter is such an idiot. Mother is ripe for a slap. I hope neither child is Andrea’s. It hurts me to read this story
