Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 320 A Change Of Heart

Lucas clenched his fists. Disgruntlement was written all over his delicate face.

Christina would not stand to see her son endure such a grievance. Picking her children up, she was all ready to head upstairs.

Then came Nathaniel’s grim gaze. “I said, apologize.”

Seeing the man’s sharp, menacing glare. Madison felt a shiver run down her spine. “Nathaniel! You’re asking me to say sorry?” she snapped back in disbelief.

“Don’t make me repeat it for a third time,” uttered Nathaniel through gritted teeth.

His words pierced Madison like a sword. No matter how hard she gnashed her teeth in resistance, she eventually caved in and apologized.

That was when a sense of warmth rose in Lucas’ heart. Maybe this big gray wolf’s not that loathsome after all. The boy turned around and made a face at Madison. “I won’t forgive you, you witch!”

Christina took a moment to comfort Lucas and Camila. Luckily, the children had not been affected.

Otherwise, a tight slap would never have been enough for her to let the matter slide.

“Mommy, I want to draw.” Camila had a gentle personality and had always enjoyed spending some quiet time on her own. Drawing was her favorite hobby.

She seemed to have inherited the passion for doodling from her mother.

Nathaniel heard the exchange when he stepped inside the room. “I’ll get someone to make the arrangements right away.”

In less than ten minutes, the vacant room next door was decorated as an art room, fully equipped with all sorts of paints.
