Chapter 471 Mommy Has Never Spoken to Her Like This "I don't want the stars in the sky; I want Daddy's kiss," Lucy giggled. "I want Daddy to love Mommy and for our family to live together forever!" Seeing her sweet smile, Kelvin couldn't help but grin too.
He planted a kiss on Lucy's forehead. "Whatever you want, I will get it for you." "Daddy's the best!" Lucy replied.
Madison walked over, looking concerned. "Kelvin, you still gotta hit the office, right? You've been with Lucy all morning, and work's piling up. Go on, I'll handle things here." Kelvin stood up and nodded. "Thanks." "It's no biggie. As long as I'm with you, I'll do anything." Madison stood on her tiptoes, leaning in.
She wanted a kiss from Kelvin too! Seeing this, Lucy immediately covered her eyes and shouted, "Oh, Daddy and Mommy are gonna kiss! I can't look! My eyes are closed!" But really, Lucy's eyes were wide open, peeking through her fingers, not wanting to miss a thing! She was practically watching openly! Madison laughed even more happily.
With Lucy's support, she was determined to get that kiss! Seeing Madison's approaching lips, Kelvin felt a wave of nausea.
Gross! But if he pushed her away now, Madison would get suspicious! Luckily, at that moment, a phone rang.
A call! Kelvin had never been so grateful for a timely phone call! It perfectly got him out of this mess! Kelvin immediately turned aside, took out his phone, and walked out while answering, "Hello, Ryan, what's up?" Watching him leave, Madison stomped her foot in frustration.
So close.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhy did Ryan have to call right then? Such a buzzkill! Ryan felt that Kelvin was particularly friendly today, his attitude was exceptionally good, and even his tone was kind. "Mr. Davis, you gotta be at the board meeting at 1:30 PM," Ryan reminded, "It's almost 1:00 now." "Alright, I'll be there soon," Kelvin said.
"Okay!" Ryan replied.
After hanging up, Kelvin turned back to the room. "There's a meeting at the office; I gotta go." Without waiting for Madison to respond, he left in big strides.
He couldn't stay another second! Downstairs, the butler was waiting by the staircase. "Mr. Davis." "Get a few experienced maids to watch over Lucy 24/7," Kelvin instructed in a deep voice. "Be vigilant, especially when Madison's around. Don't let your guard down!" The butler didn't quite get it. "Mr. Davis, you just said that Ms. Garcia is half the lady of the King Manor..." "That was for show," Kelvin's lips thinned. "Now, I'm telling you privately." The butler immediately understood. "Yes, Mr. Davis." "Lucy must not cto any harm, otherwise..." Kelvin said.
"I'll make sure Miss Cooper's safe!" The butler said.
Only then did Kelvin leave.
The butler watched his back, full of confusion.
What was Kelvin doing? Saying one thing in front of Madison and another behind her back.
Could it be because Lucy only sees Madison as her mommy and needs her around? Thinking this, the butler understood.
He immediately went to find reliable maids, determined to make sure Lucy lived happily and joyfully in the King Manor! Up on the second floor, as soon as Kelvin bounced, Madison dropped the act.
She plopped down on the sofa, crossed her arms, and watched Lucy running around the room, sneering, "So uncultured." Back in the day, she was a top actress, always living it up in five-star hotels, eating, using, and wearing the best. Only after getting blacklisted did she hit rock bottom.
Seeing Lucy like this, she felt nothing but disdain. "Penelope must've treated you like crap. Without Kelvin, she wouldn't have managed anything; just surviving is a miracle for her." Then something clicked in Madison's mind.
"Lucy," she suddenly smiled and waved, "Chere." Lucy bounced over, "What's up, Mommy?" Madison asked, "Do you like it here?" "I do," Lucy replied, "Mommy, do you like it?" She still remembered the days of living in the small town.
She didn't know if Mommy wanted to go back.
Wherever Mommy was, she would be.
"Of course I like it," Madison answered, "I just wanted to ask you, how did you feel about the place we lived for four years before?" "It was nice," Lucy replied.
"I was a single mom raising you alone, and you still think it was nice?" Madison asked.
Lucy answered seriously, "Being with you is all that matters, Mommy." Madison lazily leaned back on the sofa. "Anyway, I plan to stay here, not going anywhere else. Lucy, remember, never say you want to leave, especially in front of your dad. Got it?" "Got it. But..." Lucy said.

The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! Did Madison not want Sam anymore? Or would Ruby continue to take care of Sam? Lucy still missed Sam a lot.
Brandon had told her not to tell Madison that Sam was in LA, but he dn't say she couldn't mention Sam!
Clenching her fists, she mustered the courage to speak, "Mommy, if you want to live here, I'll stay with you. If you want to go back, I'll go back with you. It's just..." Before Lucy could finish, Madison impatiently waved her hand, "I already said that we're staying here and not going anywhere, didn't you hear?" Lucy was frightened by her tone.
Mommy had never spoken to her like this.
Did she say something wrong? Was it because Madison guessed she was going to mention Sam, and Madison guessed it, so she didn't want to hear more? Lucy thought Madison must have her plans and would arrange things. She shouldn't keep bothering Madison.
Kelvin also said that Madison had a lot on her plate and shouldn't be worried.
Seeing Lucy silent, Madison glanced at her, then withdrew her gaze. She boredly examined her nails, not intending to care about Lucy's feelings, leaving her standing there stiffly, like being punished.
"It's fine if you say these things to me. But Lucy, if I hear you mention you! wanting to go back in front of Kelvin, I be very angry," Madison warned, "Got it!" "Got it," Lucy said.
"Alright, I'm going to take a nap. You can play by yourself." Madison slowly got up and left the room.
Lucy stood there at a loss, her expression a bit aggrieved and innocent.
She didn't understand why Madison's attitude suddenly changed.
Did she do something wrong? Was something wrong? Or did Madison really not want to hear anything about Sam or the days in the small town?
