Chapter 1381:

Madisyn’s mind drifted to the first time Andrew had ever told her a bedtime story. It had been right after they started dating—he was away on a business trip, and he’d recited a story to her over the phone. After that, he had done it occasionally. But after Nana was born, she had taken her place as the one demanding his stories.

Now, seeing him about to tell stories again stirred a familiar warmth in her chest.

The gentle rhythm of his touch, the quiet comfort he offered—it was in these moments that Madisyn realized she could fall in love with him a little more every single day.

A small smile played on her lips, a soft sigh escaping with it. “Honey,” she called again, interrupting the beginning of Andrew’s story.

“What is it?” he asked patiently.

Madisyn reached out, closing the small space between them. With their faces close, she wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning in until her lips found his with quiet certainty.

No matter when or where, Madisyn’s embrace had always been something Andrew could never resist.
