Madilyn didn't want the kids' information to be leaked on the internet.
As such, she shot them a look and shook her head before saying, “Don't answer him. You don't need to give an explanation. I had a lot of fun tonight, so let's end it here.”
The brothers nodded and proceeded to quit the game.
“You did great today, Aunt Madilyn. Your performance is several times better than before,” Benny praised.
A fuzzy feeling filled Madilyn when she heard the boy's sweet words.
On the other hand, Archie, who was more like Lucian, was seemingly deep in thought with a slight frown marring his brows.
After about ten seconds, he said to Madilyn, “Aunt Madilyn, you should practice using support characters in the future. It'd be better if you could become more deft when repositioning yourself.”
Thinking that his words made sense, Madilyn nodded her head in response.
These two brats are at the top of their field no matter what games they play.
It was nine o'clock in the evening when Lorraine brought Estella downstairs along with a scented sachet that the girl had sewn for the first time.
With a serious expression on her face, Estella uttered, “Aunt Madilyn, this scented sachet's for you. If you have a favorite flower, you can sun-dry it and put it in. I'm sure it'll smell good!”
Madilyn took the scented sachet and nodded gratefully. “You're amazing, Essie! I can't believe you're able to sew such a beautiful pattern on your first try. Just like your brothers, you have exceptional talent!”
Upon saying that, she scooped Estella into her arms and gave the girl a peck on the cheek.
Looking at the three kids, Lorraine couldn't stop smiling. She felt envious of Sonya and Elias for having such wonderful grandchildren.
She muttered, “Maddy, when do you think I could have—”
Before she could finish her sentence, her daughter cut her off. “Stop it right there, Mom! You really need to stop nagging me every time you see the kids. I, too, would love to have kids, but it's not like I have anyone to have them with, you know.”
Sensing that her mother was about to start nagging again, Madilyn quickly took the kids and left, preparing to drive them back home.
