When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1565 Stay With Me

Finished.

"You're not exactly over the hill, you know. You're just a year or two older than Lottic." Cecilia chuckled.

Madeline gave Cecilia a pat on the shoulder. "But we're both parents now."

As she was speaking, the phone started to ring.

Madeline immediately walked over, picked up her phone, and her brows involuntarily furrowing.

Annoyed, Madeline took the call. "Why are you calling ne? Haven't I made it clear not to make video calls?"

Without a second thought, she knew it was Darren on the other side.

Darren listened to Madeline's thunderous voice, feeling utterly helpless.

"How am I supposed to see Amy if I don't make a video call?"

When it came to Amelia, Madeline's demeanor softened a bit. "Didn't you just see her yesterday?"

"I can't see her today if I've seen her yesterday?" Darren retorted.

Choked up, Madeline knew she was in the wrong and chose not to say anything more. With her phone in hand, she arrived at Amelia's room.

Amelia was playing with her nanny when she saw Darren in the video. She was overjoyed, exclaiming, "Daddy..."

"Amy, have you eaten yet?" Darren asked his daughter, his heart nearly melting with affection, his voice filled with tenderness.

Amelia replied with a small voice, "Yes. Daddy, have you eaten yet?"

"I've eaten too. I really miss holding you," Darren said.

Amelia blew him a kiss, saying, "Muah."

Madeline watched from the side as the father and daughter interacted, feeling a bit out of sorts.

However, tears quickly welled up in Amelia's eyes as she said, "Daddy, I want a hug too."

"I will be right over to see you."

"Okay." Amelia nodded.

The call had ended, yet Amelia was still clutching her phone, unable to let go.

Madeline stepped forward, crouching down. "Amelia, give me the phone."

"No, I want Daddy." Amelia's eyes were slightly red.

"Daddy lives in there." Amelia pointed at her phone.

"Dad doesn't live in there. This is a phone."

Amelia was still too young and due to her affection forer father, every interaction they had was through the phone. Consequently, she innocently believed that her father lived inside the phone. Madeline was at a loss for what to do at that moment,

She wanted to leave Darren, but their child was the strongest tie that bound them. For the rest of her life, she was destined to have a complicated relationship with Darren. Darren rushed over, and it took him less than half an hour to arrive.

What Madeline didn't realize was that he had already started to video call his daughter while on the road, hoping she would ask him to come over.

As soon as Darren arrived, he started playing with Amelia.

Soon, it was evening. Amelia held onto Darren's hand, refusing to let him leave.

""Don't go, Daddy." She sobbed..

"Amy, be good, Daddy needs to go back to sleep now," said Madeline, standing to the side, a hint of anxiety in her tone.

Yet, Amelia simply wouldn't let go.

Madeline tried to forcibly pry her hand away, but Darren could no longer contain himself. "Madeline, you're crossing the line!" Madeline's expression stiffened.

"What did you say?"

"Can't you consider our daughter's feelings for once? What's wrong with her wanting me to be with her?" Darren said, enunciating his every word. Madeline found herself unable to utter another word.

Darren, cradling the child in his arms, entered Madeline's room. "Amelia, I will sleep with you tonight," he said.

Only then did Amelia manage to

stop her tears.

Madeline arrived in the living room, feeling like a stranger.

Fortunately, Cecilia hadn't fallen asleep yet.

Cecilia had also vaguely overheard the two people arguing. "Is everything alright?" she asked in a hushed

tone.

Madeline shook her head. "It's nothing really. Amelia simply wouldn't allow Darren to leave. She insisted that he stay and sleep with her."noveldrama
