They ended up making a lot of pancakes. Not only that, but Quinn also makes brownies and Ca.s.sie eagerly watching how to bake them. Somewhat, he got her attention that she won"t distant herself from him. And so Quinn continues cooking until they make different breakfasts and desserts.Quinn placed a pancake on a plate and siding with blueberries and strawberries after he added the sweetening on top. Ca.s.sie watched carefully how he did it. She was like an innocent little girl that encountered things for the first time and got her interest. Suddenly, he remembered how Ca.s.sandra had made him lunch several days ago. Recalling this, he almost cried in front of the other Ca.s.sandra. Gladly she is not paying attention to him but to his cooking.
"They were so pretty!" she praises. Amazement was written all over her face and Quinn controls himself not to pull her and lock her inside his arms, then kiss her right there.
He distracted himself by showing his culinary skills that turn pretty well because Ca.s.sie showing cute reactions. Before he could finish the touch, he placed pink and purple lilies on the side of the plate, this made her more excited to taste the food.
"Here, try them," Quinn handed her a fork. He watches how she slowly slices the pancake, then she puts the food into her mouth. Her expression is priceless, Quinn thought. Her eyes sparkling brightly.
"Is it good?" he asked afterward. It might be just a pancake, but Quinn, this is something a wonderful memory for him and her. He wonders, could she still remember once she goes back to her real life?
He watched Ca.s.sandra nodded with satisfaction, and she finished everything in the next moment. He laughs after the plate is empty but the lilies left to be seen, this made her cheeks flushed.
"Ah, I am glad you like it," he told her, worried she got embarra.s.sed. "Now, lets shared them to everyone."
"Hum! Mama and Papa would like them!" Ca.s.sie said happily.
"You cooked them, so they will be happy." He told her and his heart throbbed. They told him that the Ca.s.sandra in the book had a very sad and lonely life. She was just pampered when he in that life finally found her again.
If he could not find her right away, then he hopes that the Quinn in that life will find her sooner. And this is his prayer. But he won"t lose hope since they haven"t begun looking for Ca.s.sie through traveling time.
Soon…
"Um, is something bothering you, brother Quinn?" she asked him, her face blus.h.i.+ng red from saying his name.
Ouch. Brother Quinn? His mouthed dropped open. But she sounded so cute as she is thinking like twelve years old.
"Hm? Nothing. I just remembered something," he responded, then smiled. "Let"s go?"
Ca.s.sie nodded, then Quinn instructed the maids to bring the food in the garden where everybody is waiting. He almost reaches Ca.s.sandra"s hand to intertwine while striding the corridor toward the garden. He"s used to holding her every time she was beside him, and it aches inside his chest of how he must suppress to do such a habit.
At the garden, everyone now awake and waited patiently for the food. Butler Pete notifies them that Quinn and Ca.s.sie were making breakfast in the kitchen. Surprised, but they were happy that Ca.s.sie is opening herself to Quinn than last night.
Everybody sharing a good breakfast when Levi left to pick up Madison that morning. Instead of going to the company, there are things they needed to solve sooner. While Ca.s.sie staying inside her room, everyone waited for Levi to arrive. He sent a text message for his mother that they were on the way, and so everyone gathered inside the library.
Full of antic.i.p.ation, they were excited to meet Madison, the rumored girlfriend. And the moment the door opens then Levi entered the room, their mouth dropped open seeing the woman behind him.
Do their eyes deceive them? It resembles Ca.s.sie a lot!
"Everyone, meet Madison Moore," Levi introduces her. Madison nodded and shyly met everyone.
"Wow. How did this happen, Levi?" Blaire commented.
Levi chuckled then whispered at Madison that made her jolted a bit; surprised from his action Madison whispered back, threaten him, and a flash of warning gazes that made Levi smile widen.
And this, everyone, witnesses how they tease each other casually. They were exchange glances and think these two were a cute couple. Madison is beautiful. She is older than Ca.s.sie, and so she is a little mature that added to her femininity.
Truth is, Madison completely troubled today. When Levi told her he would pick her up in the morning, she cannot sleep all night. Rampaging her closet upside down, finally, she found her best decent clothes to wear today. She also desired to look pleasing in front of Levi"s family.
"Okay. Listen, everyone. Most of you weren"t aware of Madison and her family, except us the Montfort and the Bennett"s." Levi began. "Remember the two books? We all know that Book 1 is the story of Quinn and Ca.s.sie in the modern world, the reincarnation of the lovers; Carlisle and Marivella. Then Book 2 is about the Curse of the Blood Moon, telling us more about Isabella"s perspective and revealing the story of Carlisle and Marivella which they have a daughter."
"We go back to Book 1, it reincarnated all of them. Yes, including their daughter Carlene." Levi looks at Madison.
And those who just meet her gasps in awe, especially the Williams and the Young"s were the ones shocked the most. They could recall the story on their heads.
"Are you telling us she is the reincarnated of? Meaning?"
"She is Quinn and Ca.s.sie"s daughter."
The door opens and Quinn steps inside. The moment Madison saw him, she strides closer to him.
"Where is she?" she asked worriedly.
Quinn replied. "She was in her bedroom with the kids, they were playing with her."
"Wow. So she really is the one you save."
"We save. If you and Levi weren"t there that time too, I cannot do that all alone." Quinn smiled. "Thank you for coming."
Shaking her head, she replied, "But the Ca.s.sie from this life, I don"t know how we can locate her. I am still new to everything I can do."
"Don"t worry too much, okay? Do not force yourself and avoid doing something alone too."
Madison nodded, almost teary-eyed. Quinn patted her head and everybody astounded the way they treated each other. Quinn warmly treated Madison like his daughter.
"They already contacted your parents and for Lady Isabella to come back. We need her guidance."
"Am glad. Maybe Lady Isabella could still use her ability to link the time when Ca.s.sie went. Anyway, what chapter of the book she could remember before she came here?"
"Chapter of the book? Do you mean?"
"If what a scene she came from. What happens before she switches the body with the present Ca.s.sie?"
