Alot of people thought she was mute because of that. | can’t believe she changed so much in such a short amount of time! Not only is she willing to speak, but she also has an angelic voice and a sweet smile! Madilyn gave her a little pat on the head when she saw how cute she was. “There's a good girl!” As Madilyn stood up, Estella’s gaze fell upon the food on the dining table, and she got really curious.
Because she had been raised in a wealthy household where either a professional cook or her grandmother would prepare all her meals, Estella had no idea what takeout or fast food was. As such, she couldn't understand why Benny and Archie were so excited about the food.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMadilyn had been sleeping in until Roxanne’s call woke her up, so she was getting a little hungry as she didn’t have breakfast.
She then opened up the food packaging and handed the kids a fried chicken drumstick each.
Unsure of what to do with the drumstick, Estella just stared blankly at Madilyn. Madilyn paused in confusion, only to realize Estella probably never had fried chicken drumsticks before due to her status.
She then fetched Estella some disposable gloves, patiently put them on her tiny hands, and taught her how to hold the drumstick. Estella flashed her a shy smile in response. “Thanks.” Madilyn felt her heart melt when she heard that. She was so distracted by Estella’s cuteness that she even forgot to eat. It wasn’t until the girl had finished eating her drumstick that Madilyn came to her senses and began munching away.
She had just eaten one when her phone started ringing in her pocket.
Madilyn tensed up when she heard that and reluctantly answered the phone.

Madilyn rolled her eyes as she hung up the phone and stuffed a few chunks of fried chicken into her mouth. She then said goodbye to the kids and left the house.
After that, the kids gathered around the dining table and continued eating the rest of the food.
Meanwhile, Roxanne was completely clueless as to how things were with the kids at home.
She trusted Madilyn enough to not let the kids starve.
As the two of them chatted about medicine throughout the meal, Jack asked, “I realized something when | saw you preparing Jamie's prescription earlier. You're not very good at medicine, are you?” Roxanne let out an awkward chuckle as she replied, “Yeah, that’s true. | major in acupuncture, so I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to medications. I'd say my skill and knowledge are mediocre at best. Thank goodness you were there earlier.” Jack nodded. “We all have something we excel in. Your acupuncture skills are so incredible that seeing them makes my jaw drop. As for the use of medication... | have some medical journals and books that | could lend you if you'd like.” Roxanne couldn't help but feel a little shocked when she heard that. “A-Are you sure?” | chose to stay and work with the Damaris family partially because | wanted their ancient medicine books. Is he seriously going to just hand them over to me? Jack arched an eyebrow at her. “Why not? You're a partner of the Damaris family, so your improvements in the medical field will also benefit us.”
