My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)

Very soon, it was night time.

In the internet café, Alexander was bored out of his mind waiting when his phone rang

He was fiddling with a business card in his hand as he responded with a voice note, "Steven, she didn't come today... Maybe she's gone to another Internet cafe. Forget about it." Then, he stuffed the business card into a drawer.

Under the starry night, the countryside was full of cicadas and birds chirping.

There was also the sound of frogs in the paddy field,

Madeline sat outside the house eating watermelons as Helena set up the dining table with dishes.

"Maddie, let's have dinner. You must be starving 1 didn't know that you were coming today. Look at the time. It's already late now that I'm done cooking. Did you tell your mother that you're back?" With affection on her face. Helena set up a full table of dishes,

Although it was the countryside, Madeline didn't think it was lacking compared to the city.

As she ate her watermelon, she could not stop thinking about it - this was the place she wanted to come back to....

This was her home.

"Grandpa and Grandma, don't worry. I'm on summer vacation. After that, I'll go to university. I'll take this time and stay home for more than half a month. I'll be off to orientation at the end of this month Helena smiled proudly. "You are the only university student in our county this year. We're so proud of you.

Madeline also said proudly. "Of course. You must know whose granddaughter Lam!"

Madeline finally smiled happily

The next day. Madeline insisted on taking her grandparents to the city hospital for examination.

The doctor prescribed them to be hospitalized. After the examination, they would undergo surgery, Helena was very worried and secretly asked the doctor how much the operation would cost.

After finding out that they needed to prepare 40,000 dollars, she burst into tears.

Madeline comforted Helena, I have money. I have more than 100 thousand dollars. I earned it myself; it was not from the Larson family. Grandina, don't tell Grandpa how much the surgery cous. His health is what's most important" Thankfully, the operation went smoothly.

They had to be hospitalized for a month, but Madeline had to leave before that.

She had spent 50,000 dollars on her bank card. After that, she also deposited another 4,000 dollars in advance for the hospitalization fee.

She even

Finally, she returned to the Larson residence, located in the provincial capital of Acocester, in the last week of August with 6,000 dollars remaining However, as soon as the entered through the doors, a dish bowl was smashed just beside her feet "Madeline, you left without a sound for more than half a month. Do you still treat this place as your home?" Layla's face was full of anger. "You know how important it is for your sister to go to school, yet you deliberately lost contact "Does it satisfy you to see your sister without education Why are you so bad-hearted? How did I give birth to such an ungrateful daughter like you?" Layla roared angrily, ber aggressiveness resembled a leopard defending its child. Madeline's shoes were covered with food residue.

She looked down, still expressionless

She was travel worn and weary She had been in the hospital for half a month recently a grandfather.

and was already very tired and weak after taking care of her

Facing Layla, she felt exhausted.

"You're not angry because I was missing. You're angry because your Winslet's matters are not solved."

Layla's eyes were a little avoidant. She thought,

What else!

Why would I be worried that something would happen to you when you're outside?

How could anything happen to someone as scheming as you? What sort of danger could you face? What a joke

"Since you already know it, don't feign ignorance anymore!"

Thomas also sat firmly on the main seat with a darkened face

He looked serious and spoke in a low tone, but his voice was filled with authority.

"Maddie, what's on your mind? Just say it. Things have been delayed for a long time, but there's still no certainty. It will be end, When school starts, you'll leave. What about Winnie? You should at least think on your sister's behalf." will be

Her parents looked at Madeline with dissatisfaction

Before Madeline even stepped into the house, she was already deemed a sinner.

She was in a difficult situation.

Their gaze also made her feel uneasy.

Madeline frowned. She didn't do anything, but somehow it seemed that she had done something evil.

"Maddie, you must be unwilling to go home because of me. In fact, Mom and Dad are worried about you. You are the Larson family's biological daughter, while I am just the adopted daughter. If you guys are estranged because of me, I'd rather leave here immediately." Winsler's eyes were red, and she lowered her head with a choked voice as tears fell down her face.

She seemed to be greatly wronged. Although she cried with tears in her eyes, there was no sound at all.

The way she was right now looked so pitiful

"Maddie, you can hate me, but don't hate Mom and Dad...

Madeline looked at Winslet in a daze.

her parents and the Larson brothers.

Madeline was different from Winslet. From when Winslet just started talking, she had been dated on by her j

Madeline, on the other hand, was a wild child since she was young. She did not know how to cry or be miserable.

Even if her head was bleeding due to a fall, all the needed was just a simple treatment. She didn't want her grandparents to worry about her.

She was used to enduring difficult situations without complaining

She lowered her eyes and smiled faintly, looking dazed.

"Tve already said this before. How many times do I need to repeat myself before you all can be satisfied? It's because you didn't hear the answer you want, that's why you keep on forcing me

Harley was already having a headache. Annoyed, he pulled his tie and said, "Maddie, what do you want in order for you to agree! What are your conditions? I'll try my best to satisfy you"

He seemed to have lost all his patience. "How much money do you want in order to give it up?"

Henry appeared to be struggling

In a rare occurrence, be didn't blame Madeline.

We have to make proper arrangements for everything at home."

Jacob, the young CEO who once was trending because of his looks, leaned against the chair and was silent.

He sighed and compressed his lips. "Madeline, we are not trying to force you. We have also lost our patience. As you know, we are all busy. We don't have time to negotiate with you again and again. Just give us a number. Stop wasting time.

"We respect your opinion. Otherwise, we would've just informed you directly Joel played with the lighter in his hand, lowered his eyes, and said in

He seemed to find it ridiculous. "If we really did things the hard way, it would be easy. How can you possibly defend yourself?"

Lucas words were always harsh

And now it was no different.

Lucas said, "Madeline, it would be better if you don't come back. You're so redundant. If it weren't for you, Winnie would have been able to get the City's number one by herself. But you used such mean means in mess up her mentality. You owe her a spot. It's not that she's asking you to give it

Time seemed to pass by quietly without a sound.

But whatever it was that flowed in this short period of time was suffocating and depressing

Madeline's face was extremely pale. She was still holding her suitcase. There was nothing much inside the suitcase.

It was just two sets of clothes for changing, and the duck confit and hot sauce that Helena had packed for her before leaving.

She had always been lonely, so she didn't dare to buy anything for fear that the Larson family would kick her out one day.
