Charlie was so shocked that he almost dropped the cup of water he was holding.

He did not dare to sit and drink anymore. He hurriedly jumped down from the couch, looking serious. "Dad." Charlie was still afraid of John. He had hidden at hbefore. Everyone else was worried. When they found him, they would call him their darling. Only his father would scold him.

Charlie did not dare to look John in the eye.

On the other hand, Serena was also stunned. She did not expect John to appear. She did not know if John had heard what she had just said or how much he had heard.

However, on second thought, Serena felt that it was not a big deal.

John would never have married her in the first place, and Serena would never have had the chance to marry him.

Serena glanced at John's dark expression and the worried Madison behind him. Serena silently suppressed the bitterness in her heart and smiled. "Mr. Daves, I'll get back to work." Since the family was here, it was not appropriate for an outsider like Serena to stay.

Serena smiled at John and left with the coffee.

"Wait." When they brushed past each other, John suddenly called out to Serena.

Serena asked politely, "Mr. Daves, do you need anything else?" John looked into Serena's dark eyes and did not know what to say. Why was Serena so sure that he would not marry her? Or should he ask why she wouldn't marry him? The questions were at the tip of his tongue. However, John was afraid that if he asked them, Serena would ask to leave tomorrow and run far away.

Hence, John restrained his expression and changed what he was going to say. "Charlie has been here all this time?" Serena was slightly taken aback. She glanced at the child who was wiping her tears just now.

Madison was hugging Charlie worriedly and asking about his well-being. Charlie was quietly hugging her neck without any dissatisfaction.

Serena's heart slowly turned cold as she nodded. "When I cin, I saw Mr. Charlie inside. He was alone and did not do anything out of line. If you scold him for running out on his own, don't be too harsh." John kept staring at Serena as she spoke. It was no different from when she was at work. She still had that gentle personality and answered every question.

John's heart suddenly sank. He didn't look happy and didn't agree. "Go back to work." With that, John turned around in frustration.

Serena looked at him and pursed her red lips. In the end, she left without saying anything.

As soon as the lounge's door closed, the frustration on John's face beceven more obvious. He had to find someone to vent his anger on.

Charlie was the first to bear the brunt. "Charlie, where did you learn the habit of hiding at the drop of a hat? You mess around outside like you're at home, don't you? What if you're kidnapped? Have you thought of the consequences?" Charlie had never seen his father so angry. He shrank his head and blinked his big black eyes as he hugged Madison tightly. He pursed his lips, and his usual mature appearance disappeared. He was like a little brat who had been scolded by his father.

Madison's heart ached. "John, why are you so fierce? Kids his age are always in trouble. Moreover, this is my fault. I shouldn't have said those words in front of Charlie. If you want to scold someone, you should scold me!" Madison sensed the strength of the arms around her neck and hugged Charlie even tighter. Madison was afraid John would scare Charlie, so she patted Charlie's back gently.

John also knew that he shouldn't have.

Moreover, Serena had just told him not to be harsh on Charlie...

John's eyes darkened as his mind was filled with thoughts. Serena had been by his side for seven years. Did she not have any feelings for him? John's expression only made Charlie feel that his father was still angry at him. He did not dare to say anything else.

Madison felt a headache coming on when she saw their expressions. She had already taken all the blame. Their silence made her feel guilty and uneasy.

Finally, Madison could not help but try to coax John to stop being angry. "Alright, John, it's all my fault. I'm so hungry. Can we go back for dinner after work?" Madison pursed her lips and looked at John pitifully.

John, who was deep in thought, also cback to his senses. Madison's helpless expression dissipated the frustration in his heart for sreason.

John got up and glanced at his watch. There was still half an hour before work ended. Generally speaking, he would be a little hungry at this time.

can try them." Content belongs o'english"Okay. Thank you, John." Madison had nothing against local cuisine.

Even if the taste was not as good as Rose Garden's, Madison could still pick out what was good about it. No matter how bad it tasted, it was better than the delicacies of those overseas.

Moreover, Rozalia delicacies had a long history and were quite distinct.

Every place had its delicacies. It couldn't be said that they were incomparable. It could only be said that the tastes of people everywhere were different.

Speaking of food, Madison had something to say, "I heard that Rozalia also has a restaurant chain that's quite famous. I think it's called Taste Reflections Restaurant. It's quite historical." Madison had even chatted about it with Greg yesterday.

Greg would not be in Rozalie to see how Madison was. He was also in Rozalia for a food festival. He was representing Rose Garden as a judge.

The food festival was held once every three years in the food circle. The leaders of the various restaurants would choose a junior to participate in the competition as a cultural exchange.

However, it was a competition. Victory was inevitable.

If they won, they would naturally be happy. It would also certify their skills.

Not only would they prove their skills in front of the big shots in the industry, but they would also advertise themselves.

Therefore, the food festival that was held every three years becbigger and bigger. According to Greg, it should have been held last month, but this time, when it cto Taste Reflections Restaurant's turn to hold it, the owner had smatters at home, so it was postponed until this month. Madison was quite interested in the food festival. She thought that she would follow Greg to take a look.

However, food was more important now.

John was generous. He smiled and told her, "You're right. Taste Reflections Restaurant is indeed a huge feature of Rozalia. Speaking of which, it has something to do with our family." Madison raised an eyebrow. "Is that so? Is there a discount if we go?" John laughed. "Let's just eat dine and dash. Taste Reflections Restaurant is open to the public. Our uncle was the one who promoted it. What do you think?" Madison gasped. Good God. She had only just found out!
