Chapter 258

"Mackenzie, having a brother means that you have one more person to love you. It doesn't mean Mommy will love you any less." Madeline didn't want the three children to be on bad terms because they were jealous of one another.

Mackenzie nodded. "I know. I love Colt. I don't like that man."

"Is it because he got angry with you?" Madeline could see how Mackenzie's opinion of Noah had changed ever since the fire.

Even if she found herself unable to accept him, she'd simply play tricks on him. It wasn't as if she completely hated him.

"He hurt Mommy. The only person he cares about is the son he raised. He doesn't want me to hurt Colt. That's why he was so angry at me." Her eyes welled with tears as she spoke.

Noah's expression when she showed up scared and hurt her.

That was the moment she realized that this man was not the person who raised her. He wouldn't indulge her as Madeline or her godfather would.

He would blame her and yell at her for the sake of the son he raised.

Mackenzie had acted in countless movies as a child actor and was exposed to all sorts of stories that prompted her to make up dramatized scenarios in her head.

Her grudge against Noah only deepened.

"He isn't like that, Mackenzie. He was just worried. Think about it. We just got out of a sticky situation. He's afraid of losing us. He got worried when he found out you and Colt had gone missing. That's why he acted the way he did."

"It's his first time meeting me. He's not going to love me like he loves all of you. He blames me for Colt going missing." She wiped her tears.

Madeline sighed at her daughter's stubborn expression and took her into her arms. "You're staying here for a while. You'll see just how much he loves you if you talk to him.

Mommy is telling you this now. No matter what happens, no matter how many people I have by my side, you're one of Mommy's most important people. I love you."

"I love you too, Mommy!" Mackenzie gave her a peck on the cheek.
