My Repentant Brothers by Grace Edith

Chapter 197

It started to snow at night. Compared to previous years, the snow had started later than usual in the capital this year.

Madeline snuggled in her room, watching the snowflakes falling outside. She subconsciously walked closer to the window and viewed the scenery outside.

Snow was uncommon in the south, but it snowed every year in the capital. "Wow, the snow's really heavy!" exclaimed Madeline, feeling the cold when she touched the windowpane. "The snow is so bright white that it's lighting up the night," she mumbled. "Too bad the snowflakes on the ground are melting so quickly."

Suddenly. Madeline's phone rang. She took the phone and, seeing that it was Cavin, answered it, "Hello""

"Maddie, it's snowing" chirped Gavin, his voice was as bright and high-spirited as ever. He was laughing gleefully down the phone as if something happy had occurred.

Madeline questioned hesitatingly, "Yes, but it hasn't started snowing yet in Acocester, right?" She sat on a small cushion beside the bed with her arms around her knees. Everything outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window was clearly visible. The suddenness of having someone call and talk about the snow while Madeline was enjoying it somehow felt a little extraordinary to her.

"Yeah, I made an effort to take a look at the weather forecast, chimed Gavin. "So, I know that at half past nine, there will be heavy snow in the capital that will last for three days."

"You know everything" Madeline couldn't help snickering. "It seems like you pay way too much attention to the weather in the capital, Gavvy. It's a pity that you aren't a weatherman." Gavin chuckled. "Open the window."

Madeline was stunned, but she had a gut feeling. So, she got up and pushed open the window. As expected, Madeline saw Gavin's tall figure, standing in the snow, his gaze filled with rebellious spirit. Even from a distance, Madeline was infected by his joyous smile. Madeline was stunned as she exclaimed, "What are you doing here? Wait... When did you get here? Gavin, did you come here alone without saying anything to anyone!"

Gavin smiled. "Tm here to enjoy the snowy view with you, of course. It's the New Year in a few days, so I wanted to celebrate it with you. I hope that every year, I will be by your side, and you will be there with me, loo"
