Chapter 207
John and the others arrived very quickly. In less than half an hour, the men arrived at Jason's villa with Charlie.
When Madison heard that her cute nephew was coming, she could not be bothered to chat with Blanche anymore. She quickly threw her phone away and went to welcome her nephew.
When Charlie jumped out of the car, he was hugged tightly by Madison. "Oh my god! Why are you so cute, Charlie? You smell so good and are so soft."
Madison used to hate children the most, especially children of Charlie's age. They were so noisy that she despised them. However, she was especially happy to have Charlie around and doted on him. Although today was the first time they officially met, she wished she could keep Charlie by her side every day.
John, who got out of the driver's seat, watched helplessly as his sister and son behaved dramatically. However, he was also a little surprised.
Charlie usually ignored everyone. He was only five years old, but he already acted much older. Other than being a little closer to Rosalie, John had never seen Charlie treat anyone like this.
Madison was different. Charlie obediently allowed Madison to carry him. "Since you like Charlie, I'll leave him to your care for some time, Madison."
John leaned against the car door and swung the car keys with his finger. He did not stop Madison from pinching Charlie as though she was playing with a kitten. Instead, John smiled as he watched Charlie's sullen face and red ears as he was being pinched.
"Oh yes! I'd like that. But I might not be good at looking after him." Madison paused and looked conflicted.
John was relieved. "He's easy to take care of. Charlie already knows how to go to and from school every day. He'll also find his books to read the rest of the time. Other than being a little picky with his food, he's a good kid."
"Picky?" Madison thought about how the little guy had devoured the prawns in the kitchen today and was surprised. Charlie looked chubby, but he was a picky eater?
However, Madison was still confident in her culinary skills, especially since Charlie had eaten all the garlic butter prawns tonight.
However, she had to ask Charlie for permission to take care of him, and his opinion had to be respected.
Charlie hurriedly explained before Madison could ask, "Aunt Madison, I'm not picky tonight. I ate a lot. If it's something you made, I can finish it."
Madison raised her eyebrows and pinched his cheek again. "Charlie, are you so eager to stay with me?"
Charlie pursed his lips. If not for his blushing face and ears, Madison would have mistakenly thought that he was unwilling.
"But you're all staying at Jason's place..." As soon as John spoke, he saw his son holding Madison's neck tightly, as if he was afraid of being taken away.
Helpless, John could only change what he was about to say. "If there's no space at Jason's, stay at my place. It's still early anyway. You can wash up and rest there."
Madison remembered that Charlie's clothes were at John's place. It was indeed more convenient to go there.
Just as she was about to agree, a cold voice interrupted, "There are naturally enough rooms here, and there are also clothes prepared for Charlie. You can stay here. If you go over, you have to pack your things, Madison. When you reach there, you have to unpack. It'll take a long time before you can rest."
It was Jason who spoke. He was standing with Antoine and Samuel. He should have driven another car back.
Jason's cold voice was slow. He glanced past Madison and then at Joe, who was standing behind her with his hands in his pockets. "Furthermore, Joe, Antoine, and the others are also here. It's lively for everyone to live together. John, they should stay. Besides, we haven't gathered together properly."
"That works, too." John thought for a moment and nodded. "Then, we can make do tonight. I'll get someone to send my and Charlie's clothes over after work tomorrow."
"John, are you planning to stay here permanently?" Joe was surprised.
John raised his eyebrows at him. "Why? Only young people like you are allowed to live together? You don't welcome an old man like me?"
Joe quickly apologized, "Of course not. John, you can stay wherever you want as long as Jason has no objections."
John looked at Jason behind him.
Madison also looked at Jason with a smile. Only when there were so many people would Madison dare to stare at Jason so openly.
After all, Madison did not spend much time with Jason. Jason was also cold and aloof, like Antoine. He looked like someone who did not want anyone to approach him. Madison could not help but think she could not mess around with him.
Since there were many people and they were chatting, Madison could take the opportunity to peek at Jason's beauty.
If Jason entered the entertainment industry like Antoine, there would be another frenzy.
It was a pity that such a handsome brother had devoted himself to scientific research. He could have relied on his looks, but he had to pursue a career with his brains.
Madison hugged Charlie and sighed regretfully. She only hoped Jason would take good care of his hair. It was common for workaholics to go bald.
Jason naturally noticed her gaze. It was so obvious that even through the crowd, he could feel Madison's gaze.
Jason pretended not to know and answered John's question seriously. "John, you can stay with me, of course. It's not like you don't have a room here. You can even stay in my room if you want. After all, I'm not at home most of the time. However, if you guys are staying here, I want to put aside the projects I'm working on and come back more often."
"That will be good." John could not help but smile when he heard that. He patted Jason on his shoulder. Jason was even more aloof than Antoine. "Uncle Eric and Aunt Eva have been worried about when either of you would settle down. If you're willing to come back and hang around more, remember that."
"John, you haven't settled down yourself but you're already urging us. You sound old, for goodness sake." Joe couldn't help but roll his eyes.
John spoke confidently, "I already have a son. Why should I get married?"
"But you can't rush us, can you? Whose side are you on?" Joe immediately retorted.
"What's wrong with rushing you? I'm like a father to all of you. Am I wrong to rush you about something important like that?" John rebutted. The two brothers were engaged in a fierce quarrel.
Madison hugged Charlie and laughed as she followed them back to the villa.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
She had only taken a few steps when she heard a low and cold voice. "Aren't you tired of carrying him all the time? Charlie looks quite heavy."
A five or six-year-old child could run around and walk. There was no need for an adult to carry him all the time. However, Madison thought Charlie was cute, so she carried him and refused to let go. Charlie also liked sticking to her. His short arms hooked around her neck affectionately.
Madison turned around and met Jason's cold eyes.
