Chapter 489


    Chapter 489 Arriving At Mia’s Home


    Madeline and the rest rented two cars in the city, and they drove straight to Mia''s house. Mia''s house


    was a three-story small vi nestled in a bamboo forest. It was a private property with no neighbors


    nearby, making it look secluded.


    Two elderly people in their seventies were in the yard. They heard the car''s sound, and they quickly put


    down what they were doing to open the gate.


    "Hello, mister and missus!" The children stood in the front, greeting the elderly people with sweet


    smiles. Not only Madeline, Elise, and Lone Wolf were behind the children. There were four burly


    bodyguards too.


    Noah transferred these four men from the securitypany Noah established at this ce, and Noah


    demanded that Madeline must bring them along.


    The two elderly people were a bit flustered, and they were stunned in ce. They only nodded


    subconsciously to the three children as greetings.

    "Grandpa, grandma, I''m back. They are my friends." Mia noticed that her grandparents seemed


    frightened by the imposing manner of the guests, so Mia quickly spoke up to remind them to invite the


    guests into the house first.


    "Oh, Mia''s friends. Wee in." Mia''s grandfather, David Parker, came to his senses first. David led


    everyone into the house.


    Mia''s grandmother, Sofia Parker, stood aside. As soon as Mia walked toward Sofia, Sofia held Mia''s


    hand, and Sofia asked, "Why did youe back so suddenly? You should have given us a call."


    "My friend wanted to hang out in our house, and I didn''t have the chance to let you know beforehand."


    Mia exined with a shifty nce.


    Sofia tightly held onto Mia''s hand. Seeing that David had invited everyone to the living room, Sofia


    lowered her voice as Sofia asked, "Who are these four men? They don''t look like good people."


    "Grandma, don''t worry. Thedy in the white shirt is my boss, and those children are hers. Those four


    men are her bodyguards. They were hired to protect them." Mia felt emotional at the sight of her family,


    but she wanted to suppress it in front of her grandparents.


    Mia feared she might burst into tears if she continued the conversation. Then, Mia quickly walked into


    the house after finishing exining.


    Sofia thought Mia was in a hurry to go inside because Mia was afraid that David did not offer good


    hospitality, so Sofia did not overthink it.


    After all, Mia worked in the big city. Sofia heard Mia worked in an outstandingpany, so Sofia''s boss


    must be wealthy. It was important to receive the boss with hospitality.


    With this thought in mind, Sofia turned around, and Sofia went back to her room. Sofia nned to brew


    the excellent tea that her daughter had brought back to them.


    After Mia entered the house, the bodyguards had already moved all the luggage. Mia told the


    bodyguards, "Bring the luggage to the third floor. I''ll prepare the room for them."


    Afterward, Mia turned around to ask Madeline, "Ms. Madeline, is it alright for you all to stay on the third


    floor?"


    Madeline looked up, and Madeline nodded. Then, Madeline pulled the slouching Thomas up from the


    couch, "Let''s go. We should prepare the room upstairs. Don''t even think about cking off!"


    "Mommy, I''m tired." Thomas wanted to ck off.


    Madeline signaled Mackenzie, and Mackenzie grabbed Thomas''s ear, dragging Thomas upstairs,


    "Mommy has already given you a chance."


    "Sister, I''m sorry. I''m sorry. Let go. It hurts!" Thomas shouted while being dragged upstairs by


    Mackenzie. Colton went along upstairs too.


    Mia quickly added, "I''ll go prepare the room instead."


    Madeline held Mia''s hand, and Madeline said softly, "You have just returned home. Talk to your


    grandparents. Don''t worry about us."


    "However…" Mia was not feeling well, but Mia felt obliged to offer basic hospitality.


    "It''s fine. There are so many of us here. A couple of rooms won''t be a challenge. If you feel guilty, can


    you cook us something delicious? I''m starving." Elise said to Mia while rubbing her stomach.


    Mia could only nod in agreement.


    After arriving at the third floor, Madeline stood on the balcony, and Madeline looked into the distance.


    Madeline saw lush green mountains, a babbling river, and vigers working in the fields. This ce was


    like a paradise secluded from the world.


    Elise took a deep breath while standing next to Madeline, "The air here is so fresh!"


    Madeline nodded in agreement. Then, Madeline joined the children in preparing the rooms.


    It was 7.00 pm. All four rooms on the third floor had finally been prepared.


    Madeline and Elise shared a room, the three children shared another room, the four bodyguards stayed


    in the room, and Lone Wolf had one room for himself. There was also one empty room next to theirs.


    Elise suggested preparing the room in case Noah visited with nowhere to stay.


    However, Madeline insisted Noah would not visit, and there was no need to prepare the room.


    "Daddy, look! This vi is so pretty! There is a bamboo forest surrounding us. See, there''s a river


    nearby. The children next door said they''ll take us to catch crabs in the riverter."


    Madeline could hear Thomas''s excited voice outside while taking a shower.


    The children were excited. They yed around while preparing the room for most of the day, and now


    they still had the energy to have a video call with Noah.


    "Oh, our sleeping arrangements? I''m sleeping with my siblings. Mommy shared a room with Auntie


    Elise. The bodyguards stayed in one room. Uncle Lone Wolf slept alone."


    Thomas finished exining, and Thomas listened to Noah asking about the room arrangement.


    Thomas felt daddy was quite sad. Everyone in the family went for the trip, but daddy worked in Imperia


    alone.


    Because of that, Thomas walked patiently from one end of the balcony to the other. Then, Thomas


    described the room arrangement, and Thomas even told Noah which direction the beds faced.


    Noah realized Lone Wolf''s room was next to Madeline''s, so Noah was a little displeased, "Where is


    mommy? I want to speak to her…"


    Before Noah could finish his sentence, the screen went shaking. The sound of Thomas running came


    through the phone, "I will look for mommy now!"


    Then, Noah saw Madeline''s beautiful figure appear on the screen.


    "Thomas!" Madeline heard Thomas''s voice getting closer, and Madeline had a bad feeling about it.


    Before Madeline could lock the bathroom, Thomas barged in. Thomas held the phone up, telling


    Madeline that Noah wanted to talk.


    "Mommy, daddy wants to talk to you." Thomas was oblivious to the situation, and Thomas handed the


    phone over to Madeline.


    Madeline hastily wrapped a bath towel around her body before taking the phone. Immediately


    afterward, Madeline ended the video call. Madeline grabbed hold of Thomas''s ear, and Madeline went


    out.


    "Didn''t mommy tell you before? The bathroom is a private space. You can''t just barge in."


    "However, daddy and mommy are not outsiders. My ssmate said their parents even take a bath


    together."


    Thomas was like the boss of the kids in school. It took Thomas less than two months to get acquainted


    with everyone in the school, and Thomas recruited some kids to be his underlings. When Thomas


    realized his parents had a fight, Thomas asked his underlings about it. However, Thomas soon


    discovered that the underlings'' parents operated differently from Thomas''s parents.


    The underling''s parents stayed together, slept on the same bed, had meals together, and bathed


    together.
