Chapter 268
The Remorseful Brothers
Chapter 268 Henry murmured, âHenry, donât blame it on Madeline.
âFind out who is really the bully.â
Winslet burst into tears.
The faces of the five boys suddenly darkened.
Madeline walked downstairs, wearing the outfit that Winslet just gave her.
This outfit marked the start of the familyâs hate toward her.
Madeline looked pitiful and innocent. She looked at Winslet who was crying and ventured, âWinslet, whatâs going on? Why are you crying?â
âItâs nothing. If you really like it, I can give you everything. Anyway, Iâm... Iâm very lucky to be here. So, from now on, I will return everything back to you Madeline was surprised and frowned a little.
Joel said, âStop it, okay! The clothes that youâre wearing are gifts from Dad to Winslet. Be smart!â
Henry, being just a soul, couldnât do anything but wish things could change.
Feeling hopeless, he moved to Madeline, wanting to protect her.
But he could only watch helplessly as Joel pushed Madeline down to the ground.
Tears streamed down Henryâs face. He felt cold and touched his cheeks only to find that his face was covered in tears.
He didnât understand why he could cry when he was just a soul that was unable to change anything that was happening.
Harley said thoughtfully, âEven though Winslet has taken your place in this family, she has indeed brought us joy. Youâre two unique individuals, You cannot replace each other.
Though youâre back, Winslet is still our sister and will still live with us as Ms. Larson.
âDo you understand? You donât have the right to take her things.â
Madeline was lying on the ground. Her hand ached. She looked up and said, âI didnât try to take her things. She gave this to me.â
Jacob scolded. âStop lying!â
Lucas frowned with displeasure, âSeriously, how could you do this? Didnât you learn any manners in the countryside! Didnât your grandpa and grandma teach you not to lie! We can give you anything you want but first, you need to be a kind person.
Henry sighed. âNever mind. Itâs just an outfit Winslet, stop crying. Iâll buy you a new one.
As he spoke, he tossed the gift that he bought for Madeline into the trash can.
Henryâs soul watched everything g from in the sky. He moved to the trash can and tears blurred his eyes.
At night, Henryâs spirit followed behind Madeline. He was by her side every moment. He watched her cry under the blanket.
He sat on the edge of the bed. âMadeline, donât be sad. Everyone will eventually get what they deserve.
âIt wonât be long before your brothers from the orphanage come to protect you, Madeline. Just hang in there. Itâll be over soon.â
Henry gently stroked her head repeatedly. âIâm sorry, Madeline. It must hurt a lot, right? You must be very sad âItâs my fault. I was an idiot. I hurt you?
Madeline had fallen asleep.
Henry stayed by her bed, looking extremely sorrowful and regretful âMadeline, youâre going to be alright, arenât you?
âMy little sister is as tough as wild grasses. One day, youâll become stronger and happier.
you leave us, youâll find peace.
âWeâre the source of your sorrow!
Chapter 268 At the hospital, the lights in the operating room were finally turned off Thomas rushed to the door of the operating room, his lips trembling, unable to say anything.
Lucas said. âDoctor, is my brother going to be alright?â
He didnât even dare to peek inside the room, afraid of hearing things that he didnât want to hear and seeing things that he didnât want to see.
âItâs alright but whether he will wake up depends on his luck.â Benson said hesitantly, taking off his mask. âWell, you better be prepared.
âThereâs nothing we can do. Somehow, he suddenly cried. And his heartbeat stabilized. His will to live is strong.
âHowever, thereâs a chance that he might turn into a vegetable.
Benson continued, âYou should try talking to him after a few days. Thereâs definitely something that heâs holding on to.â
Lucas said. âAlrightâ
Soon, the bed on which Henry was lying was pushed out.
It was already midnight.
Thomas and the others walked to the ICU. He looked at his son through the glass window.
Even though Thomas was a tough man, he couldnât help but cry, âWho did this to him! So cruel!
âItâs really too muchâ
more than enough to p Harley went to pay the fees only to find that someone had already deposited 100 thousand dollars into the account. It was more the medical bills that the insurance company didnât cover.
Harley returned and saw his father crying with his hands covering his face in the hallway.
Feeling sympathetic for Thomas, Harley said. âDad, heâs out of danger. You should go home and rest. Iâll stay here.â
Lucas hurriedly said, âIâll stay here with you, Harley.â
Thomas sighed, putting his hand on his chest with a tearful face, âGoing back home wonât help anyway. I canât fall asleep. Iâm so worried and itâs so painful He wiped his tears with his sleeve and said, âYou guys should go back and sleep. Iâll stay here and take care of everything. Your Mom hasnât woken up yet so Iâll keep an eye on her too.â
Jacobs frowned, âWe should uke turns. We must pull ourselves together. Dad and Caleb will stay here tonight. Iâll come over with Joel at 8 AM Tomorrow,â
âWhat about me!â Lucas complained. âI want to stay here too. Henry is always so nice to us. I must do something.â
âYou have another task.â Jacob gently patted Lucasâs shoulder. âYouâre the only one who can communicate with Madeline. Last night, Henry went to find her.
âYou need to call the police and get Madeline to cooperate with them to find out some clues.
âWe canât let the criminal get aw away with this They didnât think Madeline had anything to do with Henryâs injuries. After all, Madeline wouldnât do this kind of thing. If she really wanted to do this, all of them would have been dead long ago, Lucas nodded, âOkay, got it He clenched his fists, gritting his teeth. âI wonât let whoever did this to Henry get get away with it! IT find him out no matter what it takes!â
Lucas thought about li for a moment and then went straigly to the police station.
Madeline was still in her room, unable to fall asleep.
She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling, hearing the sound of a car engine outside.
She sat up and felt something indescribable.
Someone was knocking on the door.
