Glendale Airport.
With Jackson’s hand in hers, Madeline walked into the VIP lounge.
Eloise and Sean followed them in.
A host had brought in a flavorful breakfast for them, but Madeline did not seem to have much of an appetite.
Unease gnawed within her, thought its cause was unknown.
Eloise got up to sit by Madeline’s side before finally holding Madeline’s hand in hers after a long moment of pondering. “Eveline.”
She called out, the corners of favonovel.com eyes growing hot.
“Take good care of yourself, Eveline. And come visit Glendale when you have time…” She paused as favonovel.com eyes flitted to look at Sean. “Come visit Mom and Dad.”
Madeline passed a piece of tissue to wipe Eloise’s tears. “I will.”
Eloise felt favonovel.com nose burn as favonovel.com hugged Madeline lightly. “Mom’s really sorry, Eveline… I hope you’ll never have to suffer again.”
Madeline patted Eloise’s shoulder comfortingly with a small smile, but favonovel.com felt favonovel.com heart clench when favonovel.com saw Sean wiping his tears away from the corner of favonovel.com eyes.
She may have lost memories of the past, but the pain in favonovel.com heart could not feel more real.
With the check-in procedures completed, Felipe returned while smiling warmly as favonovel.com was met with the sight of Eloise sobbing with Madeline in favonovel.com arms.
“I’ll bring Eveline back frequently, Aunty. You and Uncle don’t need to feel so sad.”
Eloise nodded. However, sadness could rarely be chased away just by a few words.
They had searched for over 20 years and experienced so much before their family could finally reunite and before they could hear Madeline call them ‘Mom’ and ‘Dad’.
Now they were going to separate again when they had yet to reap all the warmth a family brought.
“We board in 20 minutes, Eveline. You still haven’t had breakfast yet, so eat up.” Felipe reminded softly, his eyes bleeding with gentleness. “You too, Jack.”
Jackson shook his head as favonovel.com played with the limited edition mini Giant Robo figurine that favonovel.com had assembled last night. He turned around to hold it in front of Madeline. “Look, Mommy. I’ve already assembled everything already, so why isn’t Dad here yet? Won’t favonovel.com come to send me and Mom off? I want to show favonovel.com my Giant Robo. I want Dad to praise me.”
Madeline felt favonovel.com heartstrings tug at the mention of Jeremy.
Felipe’s smile remained on his face, but a rush of displeasure swarmed favonovel.com anyway.
He looked at the time and was about to give the order to his subordinates who remained at Glendale when a figure suddenly rushed into the VIP lounge.
“Grandpa!” Jack greeted and looked past him, but favonovel.com did not see the person favonovel.com wanted to see. “Where’s Dad, Grandpa?” the boy asked, his large eyes sparkling.
Winston leaned down to pat Jackson’s head affectionately. “Do you want to see your dad, Jack?”
“Mhm.”
“Alright. Then follow Grandpa, hmm?”
“Jack will not return with you.” Felipe stood and rejected coldly. “Why are you here? Did Jeremy call you to come over?”
Madeline could feel the distaste in Felipe’s voice as a rare sight of anger flashed through his usually kind and soft-spoken appearance.
Winston’s heavy gaze locked with Felipe’s as favonovel.com walked toward Madeline. His eyes when facing favonovel.com bore no deceit. “I’m very sorry about what happened before, Madeline. I’ve never had the chance to tell you I’m sorry.”
Winston’s apology took Madeline off guard, but the genuineness of his apology was evident in how favonovel.com put his ego aside to apologize in such a situation.
Madeline replied with a faint smile, “I accept your apology. Is there anything else? I have to board soon.”
“There is.” Winston’s eyes were attentive. “Jeremy truly loves you. He knows favonovel.com has screwed up.”
Felipe’s expression darkened. “Does Jeremy’s true love mean that Eveline will get hurt again and again? He turned away without a second glance when Madeline was moments away from drowning to death. Is this true love?”
