Chapter 67
The Remorseful Brothers
Chapter 67 Laylaâs face suddenly turned pale.
She was humiliated by Regina in front of so many people.
Having suffered such indignation, she muttered to herself, âI deserve more respect,â
âMrs. Moore, what do you mean?â Iâm kind enough to welcome you here. How dare you say su you say such mean words?â
Layla wanted to retort, but she realized her family still had to depend on the Moore family in many aspects.
Benjamin, her sonâinâlaw, was still very useful.
Hence, she put up with it and said, âI also held an enrollment celebration banquet. I thought you were here to join our family.
Since thatâs not the case, I must have misunderstood!â
Regina glanced at her. âYouâre not the only family hosting an enrollment celebration banquet today. Iâm here to participate in the enrollment celebration banquet for the CEO of Glorious Group. Your family sure does know how to pick a date to coincide with othersâ celebrations. I donât know if it is a coincidence or an outright move to humiliate yourselves.â
âMrs. Moore, donât say that.â Winslet frowned and defended her mother in a soft voice.
âAlthough the Larson family is indeed no match for the Moore family, we are no longer far behind. We are also moving in a good direction Winslet added with a smile. âToday, we are hosting 200 tables for the enrollment celebration banquet. Even Ms. Hayes and Mr. Lowe are here.â
Regina said, âHow is that possible that Mr. Lowe is attending your enrollment celebration banquet?â
âItâs true. If you donât believe me, you can go to the second floor and have a look.â
Regina knew that the banquet of the Glorious Group was on the seventh floor.
She was curious, but she still went to greet Madeline first. âMs. Houghton, the Moore family has prepared gifts for you today. I hope you like them.â
Madeline nodded. Her attitude toward Regina was very cold.
However, Reginaâs heart was full of excitement, even if Madeline merely nodded at her.
âMy son was ignorant and hit you that time. I hope you can overlook the matter. The Moore family is looking forward to having more contact with Glorious Group. We all respect Glorious Group. Itâs amazing that you can become CEO at such a young age.â
Madeline didnât want to listen to the flattery. âLetâs talk about this later.â
Regina heartily agreed and went in with a smile, Layla was surprised by Reginaâs attitude, but it made sense when she thought about it.
After all, Glorious Group was one of the 500 listed companies that was on par with Vanguard Corporation to the second Ðоог Layla thought of her attitude just now and asked, âMs. Houghton, right? There is no one on the seventh floor. Why donât you go to and have some coffee?â
Winslet didnât want Alina to go.
With th Alina around, she would look dull.
She was the female lead in todayâs enrollment celebration banquet.
However, she knew of her motherâs intention of winning over Glorious Group.
Hence, Winslet said reluctantly. âYes, Ms. Houghton. Letâs go to the second floor togetherâ
Madeline siniled âOkay.
She had already guessed.
Before Brunswick arrived, he deliberately informed Madelineâs assistant.
He said that he had prepared a big gift Chapter 67 She was supposed to attend her enrollment celebration banquet. Why would she go to the second floor!
Undoubtedly, that would make people curious.
âYes, but Iâm afraid itâs going to be awkward for you guys later, Madeline said.
Winslet sneered to herself, âDoes she think she will be able to steal my thunder just like that? Sheâs so full of herself?
How could it het The salflower needs green leaves. Itâs also my honor to complement you, Ms. Houghton,â Winslet purred.
Madeline glanced at Winslet collly. âI hope you can laugh so happily later The people in the other cars also went inside.
Nolan got out of the car, and someone was holding an unbrella for him.
He was covered under the umbrella and walked lightly. His oldâfashioned clothes seemed out of place, Winslet was stunned when he saw this man. âWhat a beautiful man!â
However, when she was still in a daze, Nolan had already come over.
She used her lips. Her throat was a little dry, and she couldnât bring herself to say anything.
When she was about to speak, Nolan had already come out of the umbrella.
He reached out and put his hands on Madelineâs shoulder.
It seemed that the sunlight was a little dazzling, so she raised her hand to block the light.
Her tanned skin was glowing underneath the sunlight.
âNolan,â Madeline raised her eyes and said, âThey invited us to have a cup of coffer on the second floor. Shall we Nolanâs gentle eyes fell on Winslet. In an instant, the luster in his eyes turned into darkness.
âOldâ he muttered.

Winslet looked at the man and said nervously, âHello, Iâm Winslet Larson. I am your sisterâs schoolmate. The second floor is very lively. You can gu upstairs and take a seat together.â
Winslerâs palms were sweating. It was the first time she had seen such a fine man.
He was manly, and yet not overwhelmingly se She believed that he was a knowledgeable gentleman.
The car that he had just gotten out of was worth millions!
âIf you wish to go, then Iâll surely accompany youâ Nolan wrapped his fingers around the hair on Madelineâs shoulder When she got ini the elevator, Winslet franed aside and watched them behave intimately.
She was about to say something when Nolan ti turned to Madeline and said, âYou smell good today, Dul you use perfume?â
Madeline said impassively, âNo. It may be the smell of the clothes. This dress smelled good when it was brought here. Maybe itâs been taken care Nolanâs hand slipped all the way to her waist from her shoulders.
This dress is really good Madelineâs waist was It looked gor st was so slender he could barely grasp it Sodan smiled siftly and lowered his eyes. The gentle desire in lus eyes was almost drussening sler was nervous allimer. The elevator was minored Chapter 67 Pity for her, for she could see their movements clearly.
A burst of sour jealousy rose from nowhere as Winslet thought. âHow could such a beautiful man be so close to his sister?â
The elevator door sprung open with a ping.
In fact, it was only a few seconds.
However, a myriad of thoughts had already filled Winsletâs mind.
The banquet hall on the second floor was already full of people.
It was very lively The chandelier was shining brightly, and the waiters shuttled through it.
The orange lights gave the banquet a luxurious and upscale atmosphere.
Everyone was wearing formal wear, and they were all familiar faces of the chamber of commerce merce of Acocester.
Winslet smiled and looked back at the woman beside Nolan. âMs. Houghton, welcome to my enrollment celebration banquet âWould you like coffee or wine?
Hask someone to t to prepare them for you, she offered.
It seemed that Winslet had taken the liberty to be the host.
Her eyes were full of luster, and she smiled confidently Winslet found everyone was looking at her.
She smiled even more. âHave a seat. There are too many guests today. Please do not mind if I overlook
