Let Me Stay The Night

It was really Madison’s doing! Christina discreetly bit her lip as anger surged within her.

Only when the barista finished making her coffee and called her over did she snap out of her thoughts.

Christina paid for her coffee, received the beverage, and left.

Meanwhile, Madison had just learned from the kindergarten teacher that Christina had withdrawn the two children from school.

Feeling triumphant, she praised Norman for doing a good job.

“Mommy, when will you take me out to play next time?” Norman spoke meekly.

Madison had told him to address her as Mommy and Nathaniel as Daddy, and since he yearned for parental affection, he felt their relationship was real the more he called them in that manner.

“I’m very busy with work, so I don’t have time to take you out to play. Don’t we have a nanny at home?” Madison sounded a little impatient.

Norman’s voice grew more obsequious. “The nanny isn’t Mommy.”

“All right, fine. I’ll take you out this weekend.” Madison figured Norman still had some value to her, so she wanted to appease him to prevent him from being disobedient in the future.

Madison had to go to the warehouse to check on a batch of materials. Hence, she hung up the call after saying that.

There were several warehouses, mainly for the storage of goods.

Wearing high heels, she strode inward. After checking the materials and preparing to leave, she found the door she had left open upon entry was now locked.

Madison knocked on the door. Usually, no one would come to the warehouse.

Since the warehouse door was locked with a code and generally inaccessible to outsiders, no one was tasked to guard it.

At that moment, the air conditioning suddenly turned colder.

Chilly air continuously blew out from the vents like water gushing out from a broken dam, spreading- throughout the warehouse.

The temperature swiftly dropped, causing Madison to shiver. Realizing something was wrong, she quickly pulled out her phone to call Sebastian for help.
