Chapter 10
The Remorseful Brothers
Chapter 10 Chapter 10 However, could she e not be involved at such a sweet moment!
If she had to be honest, Madeline found it quite annoying.
Winslet was startled. âMaddie, donât get me wrong. We were looking for you last night. All that matters is that youâre all right. Why didnât you answer our calls! We were so worried.â
Winslet looked worried as if she was truly concerned.
âOhâ Where did you go to look for me? Did you go to bed to find me?â
âMadeline, donât be so disgusting. Do you think anyone is as shameless as you? Did you spend the night with that man? How shameless!â Benjamin frowned.
Madeline did not bother to explain. âYes, yes, youâre right.â
âThe same goes for you. Youâve changed your clothes. Can you not treat me like a fool!â
Madeline smiled mockingly.
Winslet tugged at her clothes, deliberately revealing some red marks on her neck. âItâs a misunderstanding...
Benjamin defended Winslet. I donât want to waste my time explaining things to you. Winnie and I are innocent. Who are you to tell us what to do?â
Madeline faked a smile and shrugged. âOf course. Whatever drama youâre trying to put on has nothing to do with meâ
Winslet thought Madeline was going to cry. However, her reaction now was somewhat lackluster.
The three of them entered the house together.
Layla was waiting in the living room.
When Winslet came back, Layla immediately breathed a sigh of relief. âWinnie. I thought something happened when I realized you were not around this morning.
âMom-â
e to look for Maddie yesterday. It was too late to Benjamin interrupted Winslet and said, âMrs. Larson, it was me who asked Winnie to accompany me to disturb you both, so I didnât say anythingâ
Layla instantly glared at Madeline when she heard this. âCan you not cause so much trouble! Your sister is already under a lot of pressure. You made her look for you everywhere all night! Youâre really cruel and unscrupulous Winslet sighed quickly. âMom, donât blame Maddie. All that matters is that sheâs back She frowned and hesitated. âIâItâs just that the man who spent the night with Maddie last night... Maddie, maybe you should just tell Mom the truth. Donât let the man fool youâ
âWhat? Spent the night with a man?â Laylaâs face was as dark as charcoal. She thought, âWeâre now right in front of Benjamin.
Doesnât that mean she was cheating on someone!â
The Moore family was rich and powerful with assets of more than tens of millions of dollars Compared to their assets worth millions of dollars, they were nobody.
Not only did Madeline not cherish the engagement, but also caused trouble.
âIsnât she being a disgrace to this family?â wondered Layla..
Winnieâs reputation was going to be tarnished in the future too âMadeline, why are you so shameless Canât you control yourself?â
âMr. Moore, calm down. I look into this, I guess there was a misunderstanding-
Benjamin raised his hand âMrs. Larson, I wonât blame the Larson family for this. Madeline did this of her own volton, However, we can accept mach a promiscuous woman into the family, I hope you understand.â
Chapter 10 Laylaâs heart skipped a beat as she instantly felt upset that she was about to lose such a brilliant sonâinâlaw. The ache she felt was indescribable.
âMr. Moure 1 only have two conditions. Firstly, cancel the engagement. Secondly...â
Benjamin looked at Madeline and said, âYou cheated first. When you break off the engagement, I want you to apologize to the Moore family in public and admit that youâve behaved indecently. This way, others wonât think itâs our fault.â
Madeline sucered.
She thought, âAdmit that 1 behaved indecently? My reputation will be ruined.â
She looked at Benjamin as she thought, âHeâs the one who behaved indecently. How dare he...
âMr. Moore, youâre really... more strict with others.â
Benjamin was indifferent. After last night, he knew exactly what he wanted.
Madeline used to be obedient to him, which was indeed great. Besides, his family was more satisfied with Madelineâs status as the Larson familyâs biological daughter.
It was why they agreed to the arranged marriage.
Besides, Benjamin had to admit that Madeline was indeed goodâlooking and smarter.
He could make do with her in the past, but Madeline was no longer pure. He was not going to accept someone like her.
Benjamin was disgusted.
âYou must agree.â
Layla also knew how serious it was Winslet frowned. âBenjamin, you canât do this. What about Maddieâs reputation? She really shouldnât have fooled around, but she must have done that because she wasnât thinking straight.â
Benjamin said, âThereâs no way Iâll change my mind.â
After saying that, Benjamin left the Larson residence.
Layla looked at Madeline and was disgusted.
âCanât you be like Winslet? Look at you. Youâre already so shameless at such a young age!â
Madeline snorted. âBe like her? Should I spend the night with my brotherâinâlaw and wear his clothes too!â
Madeline ignored them and went upstairs to catch some sleep.
Layla did not think there was anything wrong with Winslet.
âSomething must have happened, causing Winnie to do this! After all, Winnie has always been pure and noble. She has been obedient since childhood, so sheâs naturally different from a country bumpkin like Madeline pondered Layla âMom, let me explain. It rained last night. So my clothes got dirty.â
âWinnie, I believe you. Itâs just that thereâs nothing we can do about your sister. After she signs the contract and gives you her spot, weâll send her back to the countryside lest she embarrasses the Larson family again.â
Winslet pretended to be stuck in a dilemma. âHuh? Mom, isnât that a bad idea? Wonât she be spending her entire life in the coun countrys side âNo, Fin just worried sheâll make trouble constantly. Once your issues are sorted and your marriage is confirmed, she can come back.â Layla hal always wanted the best for Winslet.
She could not tolerate the idea of Madeline ruining Winsletâs future.
How could a biological child match sip to someone who Layla had raised on her own!
She had taken care of Wander for 18 years. She raised Winslet 10:53 AM Chapter 10 After all, Madeline had only been with her for eight months, and Madeline often irritated her.
To her, Madeline was just a burden she had to bear. She was nothing more than an annoying stranger to Layla.
âMadeline slept well.
However, she was woken up by the phone ringing.
It was already past 3 p.m.
She rubbed her temples and got up. âGrandpa? Why did you call me?â
âMaddie, why did you wire me so much money! Youâre still studying. You need money for your tuition. You can take care of me after youâve graduated and get a good job. Frank sounded disapproving.
âYour parents dote more on Winnie, so you need to be more independent. Iâve transferred the money back to you,â said Frank after a short pause.
Madeline was sad to hear this.
However, when she remembered how her father had squandered her wages from her partâtime job, her fury rose again.
She took a few deep breaths before softening her tone. âGrandpa, take it. I have money. This is for your medical treatment. Go to the hospital You have to be healthy so that I can take good care of you after graduation. Please donât make me worryâ
She finally convinced Frank after a while.
She washed her face. Winslet was also in the corridor when she went out.
Unlike Madeline, Winslet was dressed in expensive clothes that cost thousands of dollars She also deliberately wore a necklace worth 36,000 dollars that was given to her by Benjamin, She looked graceful and beautiful under the reflection of the chandelier.
âMadeline, a country bumpkin like you shouldnât have come back. What can you prove by coming back! So what if Iâm not even their biological daughter? Iâm the Larson familyâs true heiress. Youâre just a burden depending on others for a living. You can never get your parents and five brothersâ affectionâ
