Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 419 He’s My Leading Man

“Yes. He can’t go home now due to special circumstances, so he’s going to stay with us for now. Are you okay with it, Colt?” It dawned on Madeline that she should have asked the kids for their opinions before making the call.

“Can he leave if I’m not fine with it?” Colton hung his head low, thinking that he was asking a lot from his mother. His eyes reflected his apprehension.

Madeline gently pulled him into her arms. “It’s my bad. You’re the owner of this house. I should’ve consulted with you before deciding whether he could stay with us. I want to apologize to you.”

“I don’t blame you, Mommy.” Colton was moved. Mommy said he was also an owner of the house like Thomas and Mackenzie.

He was over the moon.

“Can you tell me why you don’t want him to stay?” Madeline inquired.

Colton took a fleeting glance at the phone in the back. Noah showed no expression behind the screen, but Colton could tell from Noah’s tensed facial lines that he was mad.

Oh, no. Someone was about to steal Mommy’s heart, and yet Daddy had the time to lose his temper in the video call.

Colton pulled a pitiful face at Madeline and uttered, “I’m scared that you will fall in love with him and forget about Daddy.”

Taken aback, Madeline earnestly replied, “Colt, I hope you can understand that I will always love you whether or not your daddy and I end up together, but you can’t use my love for you as a reason to interfere with my freedom of marriage.”

“I don’t get it, Mommy. Don’t be with Clinton. Can you just be with Daddy?” Colton wrapped his arms around the nape of Madeline’s neck and acted as a five-year-old should for once.

The boy barely comprehended the meaning behind Madeline’s words, but he got the feeling that Mommy did not want Daddy anymore.

“Alright now. This has nothing to do with Clinton. I will tell Clinton to leave if you insist that he should not stay.” Madeline patted Colton’s back to console him.
