Freya was a little worried about her and was about to ask something, but she was interrupted by her.

"Heart, I'm fine, don't worry."

Madeline smiled at her.

After the child fell asleep after eating, Madeline put him in the crib.

It wasn't until then that she truly faced Freya.

"Heart, dealing with people like Lina must not be weak. The more you drive her away, the more she feels unbalanced in her heart, and the more she tries to harm you. Therefore, we must confront her head-on and let her know that I, Madeline, am not a soft persimmon that can be easily manipulated by her."

"The other day, Grandpa came over and told me a lot about Lina's experiences. In fact, she is quite pitiful, after all, being abondoned by her husband and disliked by her son, is indeed a failure. But the big reason for this situation lies in the family issues."

"Grandpa said, support me in confronting Lina. When we have caused enough trouble, she will naturally compromise and disappear completely from the lives of me and Patrick. So, Heart, I plan to take this opportunity to handle this matter well, so that the child can grow up in a warm and loving environment."

Freya looked at Madeline steadily for a long time.

Ella has changed.

Madeline has also changed.

After undergoing hardships, like a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon, they have embarked on a new life.

In reality, she did not agree with Madeline's actions, after all, someone as ruthless as Lina, who knows what trouble might arise from a confrontation.

Furthermore, Patrick is caught in the middle, who should he protect?

But this is ultimately Madeline's life, she has no right to interfere.

"Madeline, bring the child up after he falls asleep. You're talking so loudly, and the child will start crying if he wakes up!"

At that moment, the bedroom door was forcefully pushed open, and Lina's voice came through.

Madeline responded unapologetically, "Aunt Lina, if you open the door so forcefully, the child, who is easily frightened, will be scared as well."

"Furthermore, you are here to enjoy yourself. You don't need to do anything in this house. I will take care of the child. If you are bored, you can go out for a walk, or find some aunties to play mahjong with. Just relax and enjoy your retirement."

ying sentence left Lina speechless. But soon, she came down angrily, muttering, "What enjoyment? I came to help my son take care of his child. You and Patrick shouldn't stay at home all the time. Go to work when it's time to work."

"I am my own boss, working from home is fine. Auntie, rest assured, with my capabilities, I can support you too!"

Lina, just coming down the stairs, was so upset that her heart, liver, and lungs hurt. She placed a hand on her chest, her face turning liver-colored.

Madeline pointed to the kitchen and said, "Aunt Lina's liver is not well, there's liver-nourishing soup stewing in the kitchen, go drink it while it's hot!"

Lina clenched her teeth and cursed angrily and stomped her feet. But in the end, she could only slink back upstairs.

Seeing this, Freya looked at Madeline incredulously, giving her a thumbs up. Just now, she might not have understood Madeline's intention, but in that moment just now, she suddenly saw the light.

"Madeline, your ruthless methods against scum are amazing!"

Madeline flicked her hair and smiled, "Dealing with extraordinary people requires extraordinary methods. I really want to see how long this old witch can hold on."

Madeline has endured all kinds of hardships.

Over the years of singing in Shangri-La, she has encountered all sorts of people. To challenge her, Lina’s aggressive behavior no longer has any impact.

While the two were talking, they heard a knock on the door from outside.

"I'll go open it!"

Madeline immediately left the sofa and walked towards the door.

...

Five minutes later, Madeline had not returned.

Freya was somewhat worried and got up to check on the situation.

When she saw Sophia standing at the door, she was shocked. "What a coincidence," Sophia greeted Freya politely. While Madeline had a cold face and said, "Why are you here? My family doesn't welcome you!" As she finished speaking, she prepared to close the door. Seeing this, Sophia stepped in with ying foot to stop the door. "Sister, I know you hate me, but I have sincerely come to see the children. Even if you don't acknowledge me as your sister, both babies must call me auntie." Madeline, who was pushing the door, stiffened at the movement. Freya, seeing this, hurriedly said, "Madeline, when you were in the medical room, Sophia often came to take care of the children. Besides, now you want to compete with Lina. With two children in tow, do you want to keep Patrick by your side forever?" "I know you and Sophia have misunderstandings, but in this situation, you sisters should set aside grudges and work together to protect the two children, instead of fighting amongst yourselves and giving the enemy the opportunity to continue hurting you."

Summer's words deeply shook Madeline's graceful heart. She silently clenched her fist. She knew that Sophia had visited and had helped a lot. However, she couldn't let go of past grievances and couldn't forgive her sister. But Freya was right. Patrick had his own career and couldn't always stay at home to help with the children. Therefore, she needed assistance, otherwise how could she resist that old witch Lina! Madeline struggled in her heart for a long time, but eventually relaxed her grip. Although she didn't speak, her actions proved that she agreed to let Sophia in. Sophia looked at Freya gratefully, walked in and washed her hands, skillfully picking up the child.

Upon seeing this, Madeline did not stop her and sat on the sofa pretending to ignore her, continuing to chat with Freya.

But Sophia didn't care. Since she had already decided to muster up the courage to seek forgiveness from her sister, she was prepared to bear all of her sister's resentment!

Madeline occasionally glanced at her with the corner of her eye, although she was always indifferent, Freya could tell that her heart was slowly being touched.

Freya admires Sophia's courage.

Knowing this was a pitfall, yet still choosing to fall into it.

Before, Freya also didn't like Sophia, thinking she was cowardly and unworthy of being Madeline's sister.

But after spending time together, she realized that Sophia was not bad, but rather very kind.

Perhaps the escape back then was just out of genuine fear, which led her to desert. But now that she knows her mistake, why not give her a chance to repent?

Freya believes that since Sophia has chosen to come and help take care of the children, she will surely have the perseverance to wait until the day Madeline forgives her. She only hopes that the two sisters can reconcile, and Madeline can defend this family and successfully persuade Lina to leave voluntarily.
