My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)

Chapter 323

1-1 certainly won't hold it against you. And I'm not stupid, I can distinguish right from wrong" Vanessa said, lowering her head and clenching her hands.

Then she added, "Monica deserved what she got. She caused trouble for you first. If she hadn't repeatedly provoked you. things wouldn't have ended like this. "I know you wouldn't harm others first. It was our fault, and Monica paid with her life. I'm willing to do anything to make amends...

Vanessa was practically groveling. She almost wanted to take Madeline's hand and humbly beg for mercy.

Her face was pale, her eyes full of fear. She was genuinely scared by Monica's death

She thought, 'If Madeline ever decides to get back at me, I will be completely at her merry, since my family is than the William family. Then I'll be the one killed' "Madeline, whatever you want, I'll do it. After all, we are cousins bound by blood and family ties, Vanessa said,

Madeline glanced at her with a hint of sarcasm. "Blood and family ties? Are you joking with me?"

even weaker

Vanessa said, "Madeline, we knew we wronged you before, and we're truly sorry. But didn't you forgive Henry? Nobody is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. Give us another chance, and we'll do better.

Outside, Tiana was growing increasingly anxious. "Vanessa has been inside for so long. What are they talking about? Is Madeline even willing to come home for dinner? Why does Vanessa look like things aren't going well?"

Conner sighed deeply. "We should have listened to my mother back then. Who knew Madeline's backing would be so powerful?

"Luckily, we followed Vanessa's advice and didn't side with the Williams family. Otherwise, we might have been on the wrong side.

"Now that Madeline's status has risen so much, she's naturally more dismissive towards us. Gaining her forgiveness won't be easy."

Tiana crossed her arms and frowned. "We are still family. We haven't done anything to truly hurt her. Does she have to be so perty? She is probably deliberately ignoring us to teach us a lesson, taking advantage of her backing" In the coffee house, Vanessa's demeanor drew quite a bit of attention.

People were whispering and pointing.

Fortunately, Madeline was wearing a mask in hopes of avoiding the paparazzi's sneaky photo-taking and the baseless speculation that followed for her career in showbiz.

TI think about it. You should leave now; you're a bit of a nuisance here," Madeline said.

When Vanessa saw Madeline's frown, her heart skipped a beat. She quickly got up and headed out. "Call me before you come back, so I can prepare...

After Vanessa and her family left, Madeline's drink was ready. She picked it up, went out, and got into her car.

After a moment of hesitation, she drove to the suburbs.

Two hours later, she arrived outside an old apartment complex. She didn't come empty-handed and had bought over 30 dollars worth of fruit from a roadside stand.

At the door, she hesitated for a moment before knocking.

Someone quickly answered the door.

"Maddie, what brings you here?" Layla's face was full of joy when she saw Madeline. "It's a good thing you came today. If you

had come any later, we would have moved. Your grandmother has arranged for us to stay at her villa in a fantastic, bustling area. Conte on in. Why are you being so formal? You even brought so much fruit!" Madeline glanced at her. "I came to see Henry."

"He's lying in the room. These kinds of injuries usually take about a hundred days to heal, but in his case, it might take a year and a half." Layla said with a worried, pitying expression. "But the doctor says his recovery is going well. In another six months, he should be able to try walking." Madeline set the fruit down and walked toward Henry's room.

The room's windows were shut, and the curtains were drawn, making it dark and stuffy. It was filled with the smell of medicine and disinfectant.

Madeline walked in and immediately opened the curtains, letting the bright sunlight flood into the gloomy room

Henry squinted uncomfortably and instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes. "Don't open the curtains..."

"You need to get some sunlight. Aren't you feeling stale from not getting any fresh air?" Madeline said, turning to look at Henry. "How long has it been since you were discharged?"

"Maddie, you came... Henry smiled slightly. "I thought you wouldn't come to see me again. I was discharged over a week ago. The doctor said my recovery is going well, so you don't need to worry."

"Why would I worry?" Madeline casually pulled over a chair and sat down. "You're lucky to be alive. No matter what happens afterward. the fact that you survived is already a blessing"

Henry paused, remembering what his sister had been through, feeling a pang of pain in his heart. "You are right; it is a blessing. I'm really grateful, and I'll cherish my life more from now on. Mom, bring my wheelchair and take me outside. The air in this room isn't pleasant...

"No need. I'm leaving, Madeline said, standing up. "Take care of yourself. If you have any financial difficulties, call me or text

me

"Maddie, you've lost so much weight. Why don't you stay for dinner tonight? We haven't had a meal together in a long time..." Henry tried to persuade her.

"Henry, you don't look like you're up for eating. Get some rest. I'll visit you another day. I've got some things to take care of," Madeline said, giving Henry a rare smile, although it faded quickly.

Henry felt a lump in his throat. He was moved that Madeline was still willing to treat him as her brother.

He said. "Thank you... Thank you for being willing to forgive me..."

Madeline didn't stay any longer and left the room.

Layla wanted to ask Madeline to stay, but Madeline was so cold towards her, as if she were a stranger, that Layla felt awkward and couldn't bring herself to do so.

So she could only watch as Madeline left after just a few minutes.

April arrived quickly, and the variety show, which had been delayed for quite a while, finally began.

The show, "The Honor, focused on esports and featured 108 contestants, including celebrities, internet influencers, and esports streamers-people who were highly talked about. That day, Madelinetook a car to the venue, carrying a suitcase.

She had signed on for three episodes, and whether she would continue depended on her popularity and performance.

No sooner had she stepped out of the car with her suitcase than she heard someone calling her name. "Maddiel Turning around, she saw Lucas, whom she hadn't seen in a long time.
