Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 169

From Jewel's conversation with the nurse, I found out that Jewel fell down at the amusement park, which triggered complications with her pregnancy.

So, something did happen in the end, but who could she blame? She had brought it on herself.

After the needle was inserted into Jewel's hand, she shuffled over for her IV drip with Chris supporting her. They sat down directly across from Brandon and me.

It felt like Chris wouldn't be satisfied until he had caused a scene. But for now, he just sat there and remained silent. Brandon and I treated him like he was invisible.

But Chris was here to cause trouble, so how was it possible that he would keep quiet the entire time?

Barely two minutes into the silence, he questioned, "Madeline, why did you bring him home tonight?"
