He accepted it with a brisk voice. “Thank you.”
Her arms spread as she wanted to hug him.
Connor, who wasn’t used to a stranger’s physical touch, almost dodged her but Madison managed to hug him with her fast moves.
According to Hunter, Connor was still thin and weak.
But Connor no longer gave off the air of a little kid because of his built shoulders.
Right when he tried to break free from the embrace, a familiar voice sounded. “Congratulations.”
His eyes widened. It was the voice he was hearing for the first time after more than three years.
He thought, “I must’ve heard it wrongly. Why does this woman sound like Mom?”
Madison released Connor and noticed the blood trickling down his arm. “Are you hurt?”
“It’s a minor injury. It’s fine.”
“Minor injuries can be infected and turn into something serious. Come here. Let me treat it.” She dragged him to the infirmary without his consent. “Take off your clothes. Let me see if you’re hurt elsewhere.”
“I’m not hurt.” He gripped the hem of his shirt, embarrassed.
Madison’s eyes scanned the area, and she was certain that they were alone.
She smiled. “I’ve seen your naked butt lots of times. What are you afraid of?”
Connor’s body froze for a moment until he took off her mask.
Emotions overflowed when he finally saw the person he had been missing all this time. “M-Mom …”
Connor threw himself into Madison’s arms, tears flowing like a waterfall.
The idea of it being a dream feared him. “Mom, is it really you?”
Madison failed to hold her tears back as she kept repeating,” Yes, it’s me. Sorry for coming to you so late.”
“I thought you didn’t want me, Mom. I waited here for years.”
Whenever the season for the cherry blossoms to bloom came, Connor would come to the watchtower.
However, even if he waited until the flowers withered, she never came.
Hunter told Connor that he couldn’t locate Madison either.
Years and years passed, and he questioned himself if she didn’t come because she disliked him.
“It’s all my fault, son. I was wrong. I should’ve come to you earlier. You’re my precious son. How could I not want you?”
If he wasn’t the eldest son, Madison would’ve brought him along to raise him herself.
She wiped his tears away. “Don’t cry, I love you.”
He definitely grew up physically, but he was still that crying baby on the inside.
“I can’t believe my son is catching up with me in terms of height. Time surely flies.”
“Dad told me that you were sick and needed to go somewhere far for treatment. Have you recovered,
Mom?”
She nodded. “I’m fit as a fiddle. Let me check your injuries.”
Since Connor was dilly-dallying due to shyness, she simply removed his top herself.
Although there were some scars, the injuries were not fatal, fortunately.
“Don’t worry, Mom. Dad didn’t send me to dangerous places. He just wants me to train myself so that I can protect you when I grow up.” He flexed his muscles. “Look! I’m a big boy now!”
“You’re the best!” Madison was happy to learn that he was growing up healthily.
“Mom, I heard from Dad that I have a younger sister with green eyes!”
Madison scoured her album on her phone for Willow’s picture.” This is Willow.”
“Woah! She does have green eyes! That’s so cool! Why are mine black, though?” He deflated.
“Besides, I don’t look like you.”
“Is it not nice to take after your father? A lot of ladies like him,” she teased.
“I don’t wanna take after him. I like you better.” Connor turned into a mommy’s boy whenever she was around.
And Madison was happy to spoil him.
When the day almost ended, Connor asked with a heavy heart, “Mom, are you leaving again?”
“Yeah.”
“When can we reunite?”
“Your younger siblings are studying abroad. When the new year comes, I’ll bring them back and we can have dinner together.”
“Promise?” His eyes were bright.
“Promise.” They made a pinky promise.
Now that a promise was secured, Connor broke into a smile.
Connor watched Madison leave with the helicopter, but he wasn’t filled with sorrow this time.
This wasn’t a farewell but the start of a reunion.
Considering Madison’s perky self, Connor believed that she had fully recovered.
On the way home, Madison asked, “Are you not going to talk to him?”
“Men speak through eyes alone.”
She was rendered speechless. “Wow, funny.”
Madison asked an errand boy to send the cream to Jenna first thing the next morning.
She returned to the Heath residence, where it had been peaceful the past two days.
Krystal was preoccupied because of Yale. Despite the resentment, she went along with him becauseshe had promised her parents.
Thanks to her dates, the Heath residence was peaceful these two days.
“You’re back. Come, take a look at this painting.” Mason beckoned Madison over.
She stood next to him. “The colors complement each other well. You can hang it in a museum.”
Mason chuckled. “Oh, stop that.”
“You look better.”
“And it’s all thanks to you. I think I can go to work starting tomorrow. Of course, you have to come alongjust in case. Is that fine with you?”
“I’m fine with it. Mr. Linus mentioned it before. I won’t leave until you fully recover.”
“I’m glad to hearthat. I missed you when you weren’t around these two days.”
A warm smile cracked on her face. “You’re simply used to me talking to you.”
“Yeah. A lot of people eye for a chance to butter me up because of my power. Not even my wife speaks to me often. You’re the only one I can talk to.”
Madison stuck out a tongue. “Don’t tell me too much, though. I’m afraid I won’t be able to leave in the end.”
“Must you leave? If you wish to stay, I can satisfy any request of yours-no matter what it is.”
“Grandpa Mason, once you recover, I won’t have any reason to stay. I hope you’ll understand that.”
She continued playfully, “I’m still young. I don’t wanna be an office worker. The world is big, and I have to see it myself. But it’ll take one call for me to sprint all the way here. Frankly speaking, I think we click.”
“Fine. I won’t force you to stay. If you must leave, please make the departure later. How about after the new year?”
“Okay.”
Madison kept him company the whole morning. “I’ll go make you lunch. Rest up.”
“Okay.”
Just as she was going to leave, Linus entered the room.
Due to their previous encounter outside, guilt clenched her heart when she saw him.
“Hi, Mr. Linus,” she greeted as usual.
He offered a nod of acknowledgment. “You’re back.”
“I’ll leave you guys alone.”
Wearing an aloof expression, he stopped her from closing the door. “Vanessa, I have something to talk to you about later.”
She masked her surprise. “Sure.”
Questions formed in her head the moment the door was closed.
“Did he know? Should I run away?”
Running away now was useless anyway. Since she was recommended by Hunter, he might get into trouble if she ran away.
She wondered if she was being in her head. It could be an inquiry about Mason’s recovery.
Those thoughts flying in her head distracted her when she was cutting the vegetables.
The sharp edge of the knife cut her finger, and blood oozed out of the wound.
She hissed in pain.
A silhouette flew over in a heartbeat. “You alright?”
He shoved her fingertip into his mouth, sucking the blood before she could respond to it.
She had never been this intimate with another man aside from Hunter.
His wet and soft tongue licked her fingertip. Before Madison could withdraw her hand, a female voice shouted, “W-What are you guys doing!”
The new arrival was Tatiana, who would come over every time Madison made meals for Mason.
Tatiana was simply curious about how Madison made those meals which he couldn’t stop praising.
However, what Tatiana was witnessing right now was beyond her expectations.
Madison couldn’t stop Linus from doing that due to his fast moves.
Krystal’s incident had put Tatiana on hot bricks. How could Tatiana possibly keep her cool at this?
Almost immediately, she flung her hand at Madison. Linus pulled Madison behind him, taking the slap for her.Mom, what are you doing?”
“I’ve been wondering all along about why you and Mason care about an outsider so much? Thesedays,
I’ve been arranging blind dates for you and you’re not interested in any of the dates. And now,this?
