Chapter 495 Mr. Lucas Is Coming?

"To be honest, is it really that simple between you and Mr. Quincy? Why do I feel like you two have been up to something?" Suddenly, Elise appeared behind Madeline, startling her.

Her face was flushed, and she explained, "It was just a misunderstanding between us. Now that it's cleared up, our feelings have naturally deepened."

"Deepened? You guys are already so disgustingly sweet to each other, how much more deep can it get?" Elise teased, winking at Madeline.

At first, Madeline was a bit shy, but then she confidently retorted, "What, are you jealous? It's not like you don't have anyone to be sweet with."

"I don't, stop making things up and ruining my chances of finding a good catch. I was hoping to take Mia's cousin back." Elise leaned on the railing, feeling a sense of melancholy.

She should be happy for Madeline, so why was she feeling so down?

Elise shook her head, trying to push the strange emotions out of her mind. Then, she saw something flash by in the bamboo forest ahead.

Rubbing her eyes, she whispered to Madeline, "Did you see that?"

Madeline nodded. "Don't make a sound and don't look over there. I'll go find Lone Wolf and you go get the bodyguards."

Elise nodded nervously and turned to walk towards the bodyguards' room.

Madeline went to find Lone Wolf, who was already waiting at the door, with a raised eyebrow. "Finished with the sweet talk?"

"You were eavesdropping on me?" Madeline glared at him, feeling embarrassed about him hearing her singing lullabies outside.

Lone Wolf patted her head and laughed. "You sing lullabies pretty well. But don't do it again."
