My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)
Chapter 294

Chapter 294

Eugene slept on the couch. Since he was tall, the small couch felt a bit cramped for him.

He stared at the ceiling his mind filled with thoughts about the camellias from that year.

By early morning. Eugene got up and went out.

When Madeline got up in the morning to use the toilet, she found no one in the living room,

Madeline felt a bit guilty and wondered, 'Did Eugene leave because he wasn't comfortable sleeping here? It's cold nowadays, so it must've been tough staying in the living room Suddenly, there was the sound of keys jangling outside.

Madeline looked over as the door opened and saw a huge bouquet of camellias that almost blocked the entrance.

Madeline was a bit surprised and asked, "Eugene? Where did you get so many flowers?"

"Are you Ms. Larson? This is a gift from Mr. Sharp," said a stranger delivering the flowers.

Madeline paused, watching as the deliveryman placed the flowers in

The Us

living room

It was only after the deliveryman left that Madeline walked over, still a bit dazed.

The camellia leaves were dark green, and the blossoms were a slightly dark red. The petals were thick and incredibly delicate, but not fragile at all. The yellow stamens had no fragrance even up close. It was surprising that vibrant flowers blossomed even in the harshest winters.

Madeline raised her hand and gently touched the camellia petals.

They were bright and noble, just like Eugene.

When Eugene returned to his house, he sneezed

A servant quickly approached and asked, "Mr. Sharp, do you have a cold! Should I call the general practitioner for you?

Eugene shook his hand and said, "No, thanks. I'm just a bit tired. Don't disturb my sleep.

"Yes, sir," said the servant.

Eugene slept soundly,

After Madeline received the flowers, Gavin and Bobby got up one after the other, Gavin had some experimental projects to work on, while Bobby had an antique appraisal event and invited Madeline to join Madeline wasn't very interested. Her whole body ached, probably because she caught a cold after last night.

She definitely wasn't in the mood to go out

So, Madeline stayed home alone.

Yawning, Madeline decided to head out to buy some cold medicine.

The streets were bustling with people. Even in such cold weather, people still braved the elements to stick to their routines.

Someone asked. "Hey, mins, want to buy some donuts!

Madeline stopped, hands tucked in her pockets, crouching down. She asked. "What flavor are they, and how much do they cost!"

It had been ages since Madeline had any, and the sight of those colorful donuts piqued her interest

-The vendor responded. They're one dollar cach-twee

not greasy!

Madeline bought two, paid, and carried them in her hands.

Suddenly, the screeching of brakes pierced the air.

"Hey, watch where you're going!" someone shouted angrily.

Madeline turned to see the car just three feet away from her.

Madeline frowned and said. "Be more careful when you're driving"

However, the woman in the car just smirked, got out, and grabbed Madeline's arm. "Come with mef" wid the woman.

Madeline asked, "Who are your Someone from the Williams family?"

The woman wasn't conventionally pretty, but she had a hint of baby fat in her face, shoulder-length curls, and was dressed in luxury brands

She looked about Madeline's age, staring at Madeline with big bright eyes. "Get in the car!" shouted the woman.

Of course, Madeline refused.

The woman warned, "If you don't want to get the person supporting you in trouble, get in the car

was momentarily stunned. Seeing there was no one else in the woman's car, she hesitated and asked, "What do you mean!"

"Damn it. We're so unlucky, James cursed and slammed his fist on the steering wheel. "Borris died miserably. I don't care who supports that bitch, she's as good as dead!" added James.

The woman made several turns before stopping at a corner near a restaurant.

Madeline got out of the car and turned to the woman, saying, "Let's talk here."

The woman raised an eyebrow with a teasing smile on her cute face and said, "Tin Harriet. Let's go inside for breakfast. You're not too scared, are your"

The restaurant wasn't too busy, and it was clean and tidy inside.

As soon as Harriet entered, the shopkeeper warmly greeted her, "Good morning, Harriet! Are you looking for the usual today?"

Harriet said, "Yes, and get her Breakfast Sandwich. This is the specialty and truly delicious."

The shopkeeper looked puzzled and joked. First time you brought a lady along"

Hamnet replied, "Oh, she's Gavin's crush"

The shopkeeper chuckled and said, "So, Harriet, you're just going along with it because Gavin likes her? That's sweet. I've always known you're such Harriet and Madeline sat down by the window

Harriet poured two glasses of lemonade, acting completely relaxed and casual, as if she and Madeline were friends

Madeline at on

sat on the stool, waiting for the breakfast to be served. She just watched Harriet through the food.

"I'm not here to hurt you. I'm here to test you," Harriet said, taking a big spoonful of soup and sipping it, hissing at the heat. She continued, "Haven't you noticed you've been followed lately? The Williams family's plotting against you. You're not careful at all. I can't understand how someone like you got involved with Cavin, is he really trying to settle down, choosing someone outside his usual circle! Could it be true love?"

As Harriet spoke, she couldn't help but laugh.

She knew Gavin very well-he wasn't the macho type. Instead, he admired those great

ULATE HAI

The sandwich was indeed tasty, with a tangy and spicy flavor that stimulated Madeline's appetite.

Madeline continued. "You know about the Williams family, Gavin, and even me,"

Madeline held the spoon, examining the young wonLL

Harriet smirked and said. Tm part of an organization, and during a mission, Gavin saved my life. I fell for him right then. I mean, he's so handsome and cool; why wouldn't I fall for him! This time, the bounty we've received is for you." Harriet pointed at Madeline, her face appearing innocent but mysterious. "Your life is worth Iti million dollars," said Harriet

Madeline was momentarily stunned

d by the number. She asked, "Is that considered a high or low price?"

Harriet, holding her bowl, said. This bounty on your head is astonishing. For someone like about it. You're not known for your fighting skills or even your reputation, yet there are likely many people secretly plotting against you. I suspect. the Williams family might be behind the hit. They're wealthy and hold a grudge against you."
