Chapter 50 A Wild Child

Subsequently, the two of them, hand in hand, entered Lockhart Manor together.

As they made their way, the housekeepers they encountered all nodded to greet them. “Mr. Lockhart. Mrs. Lockhart.”

Sebastian gave a slight nod in response.

At that time, Agnes, Steven Lockhart, Marsha, and Nigel Lockhart were present in the great hall.

After Sebastian brought Madelyn in, he first respectfully greeted them, “Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, I have returned with Madelyn.”

The atmosphere in the hall instantly changed when they saw the young couple.

Seeing the young couple hand in hand, appearing utterly sweet, Steven, Sebastian’s grandfather, and Agnes felt a great sense of relief in their hearts.

“Well, I finally get to see you two. Come! Let me have a good look at you.” Agnes was even more enthusiastic as she stepped forward, examining the two individuals thoroughly with great interest.

Ultimately, she clicked her tongue approvingly. “Not bad! What a handsome couple! You kids are a match made in heaven. Madelyn is worthy of being the daughter–in–law of the Lockhart family!”

Steven was delighted upon hearing this, his smile warm and affable.

In contrast, Nigel and Marsha appeared indifferent

Nigel, Sebastian’s father, didn’t say much. On the other hand, it was Marsha who felt inexplicably uncomfortable the moment she laid eyes on Madelyn.

It was hard to pinpoint what exactly was causing discomfort, yet happiness remained out of reach.

At that moment, Madelyn called out very sweetly, “Grandpa, Grandma, I’m so happy to see you.”

Upon hearing this, Agnes was immediately filled with joy. “Oh! Madelyn, you’re indeed so well–behaved! Truth be told, I’ve been wanting Sebastian to invite you over for dinner for quite some time. However, considering the affection between you two newlyweds, I thought it best to leave you some space. Therefore, I didn’t ask Sebastian to bring you back.”

After speaking, Agnes suddenly lowered her voice and asked, “By the way, Madelyn, be honest with me. Has Sebastian ever bullied you?”

“Of course not. How could Sebastian, who cherishes me so much, ever mistreat me?” Madelyn said, shaking her head with a smile
