Chapter 216 Designing Clothes with Her Own Hands
Upon hearing Matthew's words, Madison felt she could make it look younger. Holding the design draft, she sat back down and planned to make some changes according to Matthew's suggestions, redrawing the sleeves and hemline. However, as soon as she sat down, a big hand pressed on the paper, and Madison looked up to see Matthew's face.
"We were so tired today. Take a shower first. We can make the changes tomorrow. We have time in the morning," Matthew said, stopping Madison. Otherwise, she would have stayed up all night to finish it before resting.
"Okay." Madison put down her pen and obediently went to take a shower with her pajamas. It was getting late today, and if she insisted on continuing to draw, Matthew would stay up with her. So, she decided to revise it tomorrow morning after breakfast.
After Madison finished showering and came out, Matthew was still waiting for her. As Madison thought about last night, her footsteps involuntarily slowed down. She didn't want to bother tonight.
Matthew noticed her sluggishness and asked, "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"
"No." Madison quickly turned off the lights, went to bed, and covered herself with the blanket. She wrapped herself tightly, leaving only her head exposed, and she turned her back to Matthew.
Matthew looked at the blanket that used to cover him, but Madison had taken it all away. And someone seemed to have not realized that she had taken the blanket because she was feeling cold.
Wrapped in the blanket, Madison didn't feel Matthew lying behind her for a while. After a moment, she heard his voice of grievances from behind. "Darling, I don't have any blanket left."
Madison suddenly realized that she had taken the entire blanket, and Matthew was only wearing a vest and underwear, maintaining his previous posture while half-lying on the bed. She felt shy all of a sudden. Fortunately, it was dark, and she couldn't see her face and ears. Madison quickly pulled the blanket apart and said, "Pull it over and cover yourself."
In the darkness, all sensations were amplified. They could hear each other's heartbeats and breaths. Matthew turned to the side and hugged Madison from behind. Madison quickly said, "Matthew, we need to get up early tomorrow."
A smile appeared on Matthew's face. So Madison's unusual behavior tonight was because of yesterday. She was exhausted. But he was also tired. How could she think that she couldn't continue under such circumstances? He was also exerting effort. They had just finished in the middle of the night yesterday. He really needed rest, too.
Madison felt the man behind her trembling, and he smiled. "What are you laughing at?" Madison turned her body and punched him.
Matthew suppressed his smile and kissed her forehead. "Darling, it seems like I need to exercise more."
Madison was a bit confused, looking at Matthew with a puzzled face.
Matthew tightened his arms. "I'm tired too. Let's go to sleep."
Madison was momentarily stunned before understanding. So that's it.
After a while, Madison heard the steady sound of breathing above her head. She quickly fell asleep in Matthew's arms.
The next day, the alarm clock went off. Madison hurriedly reached for her phone to turn off the alarm, afraid of waking up Matthew. She looked at his handsome face, closed eyes, long eyelashes, and thick eyebrows... Madison couldn't help but reach out and gently caress them, only to be caught. Matthew grabbed her restless hand, and his gentle voice was slightly hoarse. "Sleep a little longer."
Madison moved her body and withdrew from his embrace. "You sleep a little longer. I'll get up first." Matthew didn't say anything with his eyes closed, but he held onto her hand. It took Madison a long time of coaxing by his ear to finally get out of bed.
She first went to the bathroom to freshen up, then stayed in the room for half an hour to revise the drawings. She was planning to go downstairs to make breakfast. Yesterday, she overslept and didn't let her parents taste her skills, so today, she planned to make pizza for everyone.
Just as Madison got up, she saw that Matthew was already awake. He leaned against the headboard and squinted his eyes. When his eyes met Madison's, he hooked his lips and revealed a charming smile.
Madison walked over, and he immediately held her hand.
"When did you wake up?" Madison asked with a smile on her face.
"Just now." Matthew held Madison's hand, and his index finger circled in her palm. He had gotten up when she started working on the drawings. He was captivated by her serious back view. In the quiet moment, she drew the designs, and he watched her.
"Did I disturb you?"
"No, I couldn't sleep even if you got up." Matthew threw off the covers and also got ready to get up.
"Is Mom's clothing design finished?"
"Yes, I'll get it for you to see." Madison ran to the table and brought over the drawings.
Matthew took the drawings. "It looks great. Mom will love it."
"Really? I designed it according to my ideas. I noticed that she has been wearing simple styles these days. I think Mom has a lovely personality, so I added some elements to the simplicity, making her look young and highlighting her character. I will personally cut and make this outfit." Madison couldn't stop talking when it came to design. She really enjoyed making clothes.
"Mom will love that you designed and made it." Matthew lightly tapped her nose. "I'll go freshen up. There's not much to eat at home, so let's go out together to buy groceries later."
"Okay, let's have pizza for breakfast."
Madison happily turned around and ran downstairs to buy fresh fruits and vegetables.
After Matthew finished freshening up and coming downstairs, he drove Madison to a nearby store to buy meat, fruits, and ingredients for lunch. They loaded everything into the car and returned to the villa. Once they arrived, Madison immediately got busy, her movements skillful, and Matthew helped her with odds and ends.
When Mrs. Sterling and Mr. Sterling woke up, she had already started making pizzas. Several pizzas were already prepared and placed on plates. They could smell the aroma even before entering the kitchen.
"What are you doing? It smells amazing." Mrs. Sterling walked into the kitchen and saw her daughter and son-in-law wearing aprons and busy.
"Mom, you're up. Where's Dad? We're having pizza for breakfast, and I made it myself." Madison couldn't help but show off in front of her parents.
Mrs. Sterling walked toward the dining table, swallowing her saliva. "Your Dad is still in the room."
