Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5542

Maddie said, “Thanks for everything.”

She felt a little ashamed as she thanked Kaden. In the past, she had privately resented him for being so overbearing. She was Everly’s mother, but he never let her have much say in Everly’s future.

Maddie thought Kaden looked down on her siblings. Not only did Everly turn down the men they introduced to her, but even Kaden would also dismiss the matches and lecture her about it.

She felt trapped between both sides. Steven accused her of being a useless mother, saying that he was trying to be nice by finding a boyfriend for his niece, yet he was being blamed for it.

Only now did Maddie realize that she had been wrong. She should not have thought that way about Kaden.

He had spent decades navigating the business world and was shrewd. When it came to judging people, his eye was far better than hers.

Everly was the Flemmings’ only heir. Everything Kaden did was to protect Everly, Flemming Group, and everything the family had built.

“There’s nothing to thank me for. Everly is my granddaughter. Go get some sleep and don’t overthink. As for Everly and Sonny, they can take things slowly. I’m keeping an eye on them. I’ll create chances for them to spend time alone together.”

“Okay. You get some rest too.”

Maddie returned to her room.

Her bedroom was simply furnished, with photographs of her and Ike covering almost every surface. There were pictures from when they were dating to their wedding, and even after they married.
