Chapter 197 Nothing to Fear
“Self-defense?” Madeline subconsciously looked at Sebastian. “Is this because of the children’s…
kidnapping?”
As soon as she mentioned the word, she took a peek at the children’s faces, only to find that they
looked like they usually did. They didn’t look like they were particularly traumatized.
At that sight, she could finally let out a breath of relief.
“Yes,” Sebastian told her. “No matter how good the bodyguards are, there will come a time when they
cannot protect the children. It would make them much safer if they had the ability to protect
themselves.”
“You are right.” Madeline agreed with him, and she nodded.
She would have been bullied more by the Taylors if she hadn’t learned martial arts to protect herself.
There were tons of benefits of learning martial arts––the first one being that one could protect
themselves, and the second one was the increased level of confidence martial arts practitioners had.
Anyone with that confidence would be able to stand up against anyone without fear because they know
they have the ability to take care of themselves.
The thing was… Learning martial arts was no walk in the park. She was fine with having a tough time,
but the boys were her babies. For someone who had painstakingly raised them to grow up without any
hardships, the thought of putting them through something so tough pained her.
Sebastian noticed that she was unwilling to say yes to it, so he comforted her, “Don’t worry. I will teach
them step-by-step. I won’t put them through any hardships.”
Besides Madeline, Sebastian, too, was reluctant to do it as well!
It pained him to think that his beautiful and obedient sons, whose limbs were as delicate as flowers and
whom he didn’t need to put in a lot of strength to carry, were going to take up something so physically
taxing.
If it wasn’t because of the kidnapping incident orchestrated by Luke, he would have been absurdly
reluctant to let his children learn martial arts.
“Daddy, Mommy, I am a tough cookie!” Quincy convinced them in all seriousness. “No pain, no gain! I
want to become someone who has the ability to protect Mommy and Buddy! I can’t be more brilliant
than other people if I don’t work harder than them!”
“Me! Me!” Joel raised his hand and eagerly joined the conversation. “I am the same as Aldo! I will do
anything Aldo does!”
Sebastian’s gaze flicked between Quincy and Joel. At that moment, Sebastian couldn’t help but pull
them into an embrace before smacking a big kiss on each of them. “I wonder what good deed I did in
my past life for me to get such wonderful boys as my sons in this lifetime.”
“Daddy!” Joel hugged his father with his small face tilted upward as his crescent moon eyes looked at
Sebastian. “I must have done lots of good things too in my past life for me to have such a good Daddy,
Mommy and Aldo!”
Upon hearing that, Sebastian, still hugging Joel, couldn’t help but look at Madeline and ask, “Maddie,
did Buddy grow up drinking honey water? He is too sweet.”
Madeline started laughing at that, and she reached over to caress the little one’s head.
She didn’t know who Joel took after for him to be such a sweet talker. He had always been the best at
cheering her up.
Joel was born with a weaker constitution than Quincy. Not only was he shorter and skinnier, but he also
fell sick more than his older brother did. As their parent, it was natural that Madeline’s scale would tip
more to the sicker child’s side. Even though she constantly reminded herself that she shouldn’t pick
sides and she needed to treat both her children fairly, she would always unconsciously be more
concerned about Joel.
She would sometimes worry that Quincy would get jealous of his younger brother, but she eventually
realized that she had been worrying over nothing. Joel loved his brother so much that his eyes shone
every time he saw Quincy. His older brother was the one he stuck to the most, other than his mother.
Joel would even say all kinds of sweet things to his older brother every day.
After they had outgrown their toddler stages, Quincy, who was born only a few minutes before Joel,
had automatically assumed the responsibilities of an older brother. Not only did he not get jealous
because of his mother’s love for his younger sibling, but he was also even showing as much love to his
brother as his mother would.
Joel was so enthusiastically clingy that he could even follow Quincy to the washroom, but Quincy never
once showed that he was annoyed by Joel’s persistence. He would always let his younger brother do
anything he wanted.
Whenever Madeline saw the siblings together, she would think that she might be the most blessed
person on earth.
She, too, wanted to say what her husband and younger son had said about good deeds and karmas.
She wanted to tell them that her sons must be her blessing from her past life!
Seeing how warm the atmosphere in the room was, Madeline couldn’t help but probe what her children
thought of the kidnapping.
When she did, Quincy only showed her how fearless he was, while Joel was as muddled as he always
was. He didn’t seem to have any idea about what had happened.
It might have been the fact that the children were still young, or because they hadn’t been hurt and had
woken up in their own home that the incident didn’t seem to leave much of an impression nor trauma
on them.
She could finally be at ease after making sure that her children were fine.
That night, she prepared a scrumptious meal to welcome Logan and Luke with Sebastian by her side.
She still held some resentment and anger toward Luke for the things that he had done to them, but
upon seeing Logan limp, her heart felt so much pain that she didn’t feel like holding onto those negative
feelings anymore.
Just like Luke said, Logan was the prime example of what a perfect man was before he sustained the
injury to his leg… Logan might look elegant and gentle on the surface, but she knew just how prideful
of a man he was. He might seem to not care that he had become a cripple, but she could only imagine
how upset he must feel about it.
And coincidentally, Luke was Logan’s only brother and family. She was willing to let Luke off her hook
for Logan’s sake.
She only hoped that Luke would start behaving and stop worrying about his only brother.
The atmosphere at the dining table was peaceful because the children were there.
When night came, Madeline arranged for Logan to rest in their guest room, whereas Luke, along with
Conrad and Dean, went to the bodyguards’ quarters to the east.
Luke was rather obedient as he quietly went with his new colleagues. He didn’t compare his plight to
that of his brother.
When the second day came, Madeline, to her pleasant surprise, noticed how Logan’s limp wasn’t as
severe as it was yesterday. As much as she was elated by the sight of that, she thought that she might
have imagined it, and so she quickly took a few more looks at Logan.
Logan laughed out loud when he caught her stealing glances at him, and he said, “My limp was more
obvious because I was too tired yesterday. My leg feels much better now after I had proper rest.”
Her lips parted and quivered ever-so-slightly, but she didn’t know what to say in return. There was still a
suffocating feeling that a boulder was pressing on her chest.
“I am fine!” Logan patted her shoulder and gave her a comforting smile. “Maddie, don’t worry about me.
I am good. And I am really happy… I have never been better.”
The first memory that Logan had was of his sickly mother, who was in bed, and how distant he felt he
was from Luke. For as long as he could remember, there weren’t a lot of happy moments in his life.
After his mother had passed away and his father had remarried, he and Luke were basically abused by
their stepmother every day. They had to struggle to stay alive back then.
The two of them managed to make their escape to Worrick with the help of their uncle’s friend after
that. They might have gotten out from the evil clutches of their stepmother, but he spent every day
thinking of a way to get his revenge and take back everything that was theirs to begin with.
Alas, he succeeded at it. He took back their property and got his revenge. However, his beloved sister
was no longer by his side then…
