Chapter 261

Chapter 261 Madeline’s words were quite harsh.

Harley’s smile froze on his lips, realizing that Madeline held a grudge against them.

He hadn’t expected that she still hated them so much even though they had not seen each other for a long time.

He once thought that time could heal everything.

He said, “Madeline, we’re sorry. It’s our fault. We won’t repeat the same mistakes.

“If things couldn’t be redone, we would definitely...

Yohannes remained quiet until now. He raised his eyes and said, “I wish everything in the world could be redone. Wouldn’t that he wonderful! But the problem is, you can’t do that.

“Do you really think an apology can erase the harm that you did to Madeline?”

Yohannes smiled with a hint of coldness and sarcum He added. “You once wanted to ruin Madeline’s future for Winslet “And now, you’re ready to sacrifice Madeline’s freedom for your future.

“Shame on you”

Thomas sighed. “We just want to see Madeline. We don’t mean to use her again. We just..

Layla walked over, p pointing at Yohannes. “Who are you? Why are you turning us against each other? We’re family. We’re connected by blood!”

“Even if Madeline has a grudge against us now. Time will eventually heal everything “Why are you talking about this? What are you up *** you up to!”

Layla didn’t dare get angry with Ruth or confront Madeline so she could only vent her anger on a stranger.

Madeline took Yohannes arm. “He’s my brother and he’s far more important to me than you guys Yohannes hesitated, turning to Madeline. He thought. Am I really more important to her than her blood relatives!”

Madeline said. “I’ve never wanted the money. I’m just here to have some fun. Don’t bother trying to persuade me 1 don’t need money anyway”

Madeline laughed. “You worked so hard to move up the social ladder to make the Larson family in the capital city respect you and humiliate them. “But now, you’re groveling in front of them like stray dogs.

“It’s hilarious”

Madeline smiled and lowered her head. She thought it was definitely not a waste of time.

Layla turned pale, shocked at how harsh Madeline’s words could be. She said, “You can insult me but I’m not doing this for myself but for the family!

“Do you think I don’t want dignity? Do you think I want to be looked down on!”

Madeline nodded, thinking, What’s it got to do with me?

Madeline turned around and got into her car. There was a file of the paperwork for her transfer to Japrium University inside her car. Gavin had been thinking about the transfer for academic reasons. After his persuasion last night. Madeline was starting to consider it If her brothers were ready to leave the gang, she would on them support She would be happy to see Gavin being liked b by everyone at school instead of being in danger The door of the car slammed shut.

Yohannes sat down in the passenger seat. “Aren’t you upset?”

11:04 AM 0.

Chapter 261 “Not really.” Madeline shook her head. I never had a real family. It’s the same now. Everything is just back to the starting point Reading her file, Yohannes sighed. “It’s great that you’re willing to come to Japrium. Working in Acocester is not convenient for me.”

Madeline started the car and gave him a sideways glance. She smiled, “Did you stay in Acocester just for me?”

“You’re ridiculous,” said Yohannes.

The Larson family didn’t leave immediately. They didn’t say anything until Madeline’s car vanished.

Layla slapped Thomas on the arm with tears welled in her eyes, feeling humiliated. “Why didn’t you try to persuade her? You all tried to be the good guys, leaving me to be the villam!”

Thomas replied, dodging her helplessly, “How can you blame me for this?”

“Isn’t it your fault: Do you want to blame it on me? Layla bit her lips. “Now how are we supposed to get inside? How are we going to explain this to Ruth “Penny and Tiana always look down on me. They’ll definitely disdain me even more!

“Do you know what they say about me behind my back? Tiana looks down on me because of my humble background and she said I was an unsophisticated redneck!

“Penny laughs at me for being just a housewife who doesn’t work. She’s proud that she is very capable at work. She thinks we’re parasites!” As Layla spoke, she felt resentful and tears streamed down her face.

Layla continued. “You all act like money doesn’t matter to you and I’m the one who is obsessed with it and forcing Madeline. Im her mother. Why would I hurt her?”

Thomas quickly wrapped his arm around Layla’s shoulders. “Come on, there’s no need to cry about it If Madeline isn’t willing to come back to the Larson family, let’s forget about it. At worst, well just have to move back to Acocester.”

Thomas frowned, “Mom, don’t stress yourself out. You cannot force her to do anything. Just let things happen naturally, “Life’s so tough here. Let’s get back to Acocester today” Henry said nonchalantly, “Whether it’s Acocester or Acocester, it makes no difference to me.” Jacob said, “Yeah” Thinking that they were humiliated and their mom was suffering too, he thought they might as well go back to Acocester.

At least they wouldn’t have to deal with the scheming people here anymore if they were back in Acocester “Fine, let’s go,” Joel said, “You better mean it. But if you’re unwilling to leave here, stop complaining about it “The Larson family isn’t going to give us the dividend. It’s better to give up now.”

Lucas said, “Yeah, the Larson family is never going to share the dividend with us. They’re all scheming and calculating!

Layla shook her head. “We’re supposed to have ten percent of the dividend. I’m not leaving. I’d rather stay here until they give us what belongs to Layla thought she was suffering a lot for the family. She thought she was selfless and brave.

Joel looked helplessly at the sky. He knew his mother was reluctant to leave this metropolis though she was complaining about everything “Don’t look at me like that!” Layla said, feeling a bit embarrassed, “People should aim higher. No one wants to live a worse life!

“We’ve already left that little town. Why would we go back there?”

Layla wiped away her tears, not daring to look at her husband and sons.

Thomas shook his head, wordless.

His five sons exchanged glances with each other, looking helpless.
