The Remorseful Brothers

Chapter 329

Gavin was a genius, an academic whiz whose mind worked better than anyone’s. Yet, when it came to caring for a baby, he found himself at a loss.

He returned to the room with the supplies and handed the baby blanket to Madeline. “Maddie, are you sure you want to take her home and raise her? I think it’s a huge responsibility. It takes a lot of time and effort.

“Huh?” Madeline blinked. “Well, you can just hire a nanny for now.”

Someone in the adjacent room overheard and scoffed, “So young and already have a kid, but don’t know how to care for one? Money isn’t everything. A child doesn’t thrive on money alone.”

Embarrassed, Madeline hugged the baby and walked out.

Gavin said, “And how do you raise a child with no money? Can a child live on air? The person fell silent.

Inside the car, Gavin called someone to arrange for a trusted nanny. Then he started the engine.

Madeline held the baby. “She’s such a good–natured little thing–not fussy at all. Aren’t babies supposed to cry a lot?”

Gavin replied, “Probably because she’s not hungry yet. Once she is, she’ll definitely cry” Madeline nodded, thinking that made

sense.

Holding the soft little baby, Madeline noticed the warm scent of milk clinging to her, which brought a cozy feeling to her heart. She felt an instant connection with this child–perhaps it was love at first sight or maybe she just always loved kids.

She gently squeezed the baby’s hand. “You’re so cute, little one.”
