Chapter 52

Chapter 52 Winslet pretended to be concerned and said, “You seem a little down lately. It must be because of her, and 1 feel bad seeing you like this,”

“Leouldn’t fall asleep last night while thinking about Maddie. However, I didn’t dare mention it because I feared my family would feel uncomfortable.”

Lucas was a bit trembled.

“I know you’re sad.” Winslet looked at Lucas and sighed. “How about going to the conference tonight! We can distract ourselves.”

Winslet said with a look of innocence, “Jacob mentioned that if we could make connections with some influential people this time, it would greatly beneft our business... I was hoping we could meet the CEO of Glorious Group tonight. It would alleviate the stress for both Jacob and Daddy...”

Winslet was still trying to develop her character persona She pretended she wanted to attend the conference for the Larson family, not for herself.

She looked at Lucas, hoping that he could understand her feelings.

Lucas said expressionlessly. We’ve known each other for 18 years”

Winslet was slightly stunned. “Yes, we’ve known each other for 18 years Lucas looked into Winslet’s eyes.

He remembered when Winslet was a child. She would refuse to go out for half a month when a rabbit died.

She couldn’t eat or sleep well.

Now, that Madeline had died.

Winslet could go to the banquet and remain calm It was clear that she had been the most concerned and consert veron in the Larson family when it came to Madeline.

The difference between before and after was thought–provoking “Did you really care about Maddie before!”

“Of course!” Winslet’s palms were cold and sweaty. “Lucas, do you think I am indifferent?TM She forced out tears and said, “I’m also sad. I am so sorry for Maddie... But she tried to save us. I have to take on her responsibility. I don’t dare to show my sadness. I just want you to be fine. If I can’t hold on, Mom will blame herself even more...

“If I haven’t seen it with my own eyes just now, I might have believed your words.

How could you smile so happily behind my back? Lucas said inwardly.

Then Lucas frowned and said, “Winnie, I thought I knew you well enough. You wouldn’t consider attending the conference because of your close relationship with Maddie. It appears that your care and love for Maddie were all insincere”

Winslet took Lucas hand and said, “Lucas, I’m here for the family. You know how much Daddy values this conference. I won’t go if you don’t want me to go, okay!”

Winslet lowered her gaze and burst into tears, “Lucas, please don’t misunderstand me like this.”

Lucas didn’t know why he was upset.

He let go of her hand, somewhat disappointed, and said, “Let me calm down first before we talk.”

Winslet watched as Lucas walked out.

The sadness on her face also disappeared. She was too careless.

She was also ton happy, showing her joy openly. She was unsure if it would affect how her family v viewed her.

She thought, “Luckily, it’s Lairas. Lucas is usually the most straightforward person. I can easily persuade him and act pitifully. He doesn’t have any feelings for Madeline Why would he reart so negatively this time? If he truly had feelings for her, he would have taken action long ago”

Chapter 32 Winsler closed the door and went to fix her makeup.

The conferrner of the Glorious Group took place on the buddings loth floor.

Many celebrities arrived Winslet, along with her father and Jacobs, arrived by ear. She gazed curiously at the scenery rude the window Jacob, who exactly is this CEO “I heard that it’s a woman with a mysterious background,” Jacob said. “I don’t know the details and can’t gather information Winslet was immediately disappointed upon learning that the CEO was She got out of the car along with Jacob.

She naturally turally linked her arm with her brother’s, acting as a female companion by his side Jacob was a handsome young CEO.

But when they arrived at Glorious Group, many people were similar to him.

No one would go out of their way to flatter them.

Benjamin was waiting for them at the entrance Benjamin was not in a high mood, so he nodded slightly and walked forward.

Jacobs whispered, “Winnie, aren’t you going with him?”

He wasn’t stupid and knew there was something between them Winslet h I hesitated for a while. I’ll go comfor him.”

Winslet walked over in high heels and greeted, “Benjamin”

Benjamin nodded and smiled, but he looked exhausted.

He felt extremely distressed, remembering that he had lost someone who loved him so much and was willing to her life for him He hadn’t slept all night.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Madeline was too kind.

She had excellent grades, a humble personality, pure love, seeking no returns, passionate and courageous...

Unfortunately, she had died.

“Winnic, is there any news from the search and rescue team?”

When Winslet heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She smiled and said, “Not yet. You should take it easy. I feel sorry for you”

She took Benjamin’s arm and said, “Benjamin, take good care of yourself. I believe Maddie wants you to be happy”

“Okay” Benjamin calmed down when he heard her say that They stood side by side.

At the hall of the conference.

Suddenly, someone recognized Bergamin “Mr. Moore, I thought you wouldn’t come today. Your father has arrived and was talking to us just thon “Hey, she is... The speaker knew that Benjamin’s fiancee had died. When he saw Benjamun with a girl, he couldn’t help but feel cu “You look familar. Are you the eldest daughter of the Lanson family!”

Winslet pursed d her lips and sai I said with a pure smile “Yes, I am Hello, Sir. My name is Winslet Chapter 12:

However, as soon as she finished her words, everyone’s gaze liecame subtly different.

“Why does Benjamin bring his fiancée’s sister Winslet to the conference after Madeline’s death?”

“Halu.... Let’s talk later. We have something to do. They all said left.

They were not inclined toward gossip.

Regina frowned when she saw her son. “Regardless of the circumstances, Madeline has just passed away, so Benjamin shouldn’t be so close to her sister Winslet!” she thought.

“Benjamin, come here!”

Benjamin heard his mother calling him and was about to g Suddenly, a group of people rudely pushed through the middle, causing Benjamin to stumble.

Benjamin frowned and looked over, only to see a tall, slightly sinister–looking man turning his gaze back.

The man’s eyes were filled with disdain and indifference.

It was as if he was looking at an ant Benjamin felt uncomfortable.

Those people didn’t stop and walked toward the infield.

Regina came over and asked, “Benjamin, are you okay?”

I’m okay. That person was a bit intimidating just now.

1. w. Who is het is he? I haven’t seen this man in Acocester Regina’s eyes darkened. “I heard he came from the capital and was involved in arms dealings. Anyway, don’t go against that guy, or...”

Regina was scared. Of course, their identities would be jeopardized.

Benjamin frowned and asked, “How could such a person appear in Acocester?”

Regina answered. “He has a close relationship with the CEO of Glorious Group. His presence here is likely connected to her Winslet listened and couldn’t help but envy the CEO of Glorious Group.

“Such a powerful and handsome man comes to support her...” she thought However, when they looked over, they suddenly froze.

The man walked backstage, and under the dim light, he embraced a woman’s waist.

They showed an affectionate attitude, showering boundless affection.

Benjamin was also stunned, “Maddie?”
