My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)

Chapter 178Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Madeline came to the capital with her daily clothes. She didn't want to dress up extravagantly for the conference. However, she didn't expect Caleb to have everything ready

Madeline wore a priceless emerald bracelet on her wrist and a beautiful pearl necklace around her neck. Her hair was loosely pinned up with a diamond barrette. She looked elegant and delicate. Madeline said. "Since you think it's beautiful, it's bound to look good. After all, you have excellent taste"

Caleb lowered his head and listened to her patiently, looking at her delicate jawline and beautiful neck

He wanted to take his time to touch her neck if it wasn't in public. He wondered if the temperature of her neck was the same as her heart.

Madeline linked arms with Caleb and looked shapely beside him. "Shall we go in? Let's not block the entrance. There are so many people staring at us. It's awkward"

Madeline didn't know that Caleb was a prominent figure, so the attention confused her. She followed Caleb step by step in high heels.

As soon as they entered the hall, countless strangers swarmed toward them.

A person said. "Mr. Sin

Simmons, it's been a while. I wonder if you still remember me. We met before.....

Another person said, "Mr. Simmons, you're finally back."

Another person said, "Oh my, who is this pretty missy! You look unfamiliar,"

Madeline didn't know these people at all, but some were big shots she had known in her previous life. At that moment, even if she was a popular actress, she still had to take the initiative to flatter these big shots

But now these high and mighty big shots were smiling so brightly and raising their glasses to propose a toast. Madeline was a little surprised.

Caleb frowned without hesitation and waved his hand. "This is my sister, Madeline. She doesn't know how to drink. Anyone who wants to make her drink better think twice."

Everyone fell silent after hearing this

It seemed that Caleb was serious about Madeline. He wasn't toying with her. He brought her back to the capital gave her special attention, and made sure she stayed away from alcohol. He was precious to her. It was a clear sign of favoritism. Everyone looked seriously at the beautiful and aloof Madeline in a light-colored gown.

They didn't know what attracted Caleb, who had always lacked interest in romantic desires. But, Madeline must be quite capable. Judging from this, it looked like he cherished her. It was outrageous.

Vanessa saw the commotion and wanted to squeeze in. At least, she wanted to see who could be Caleb's female companion. Unfortunately, with her body, she couldn't get close to him at all.

Sharon took the gift and shook her head. Looking at the crowd surrounding Caleb, she was having a headache.

At this moment, someone sneaked into the hall. His suit was creased, and he looked disheveled. It seemed that he had come from a long journey. He looked travel-worn and weary. He was carrying a leather bag.

As soon as he saw Sharon, his eyes lit up. He wiped the sweat on his forehead and rugged at his clothes. "Sharon"

Hearing a familiar voice calling her, Sharon looked back in confusion and saw Thomas standing behind her.

She was slightly stunned and immediately frowned in disgust. Thomas, aren't you in Acocester? Why are you here in the capital!"

Sharon stepped back vigilantly. "1 heard that your family went bankrupt, and your son owed the loan sharks a lot of money. Did you come here today to borrow money from met I'm telling you that I won't give something without getting anything in return."

Thomas looked embarrassed and was in a difficult position. Sharon's words were really unpleasant. It was like a slap-on his face.

He was so asharned that he almost lowered his head. He thought. If I just leave, what about the mess at home"

Thomas bent his warst slightly and booked extremely humble. "Sharon, I know we did something wrong in

in the past that made you angry. I sincerely

apologize to you. I hope you can be merciful and let go of the past grudges"

"Let it go?" Sharon narrowed her eyes. It was all because of Madeline that Sharon's face was disfigured. She thought. He wants me to let got How is that possible?

"I don't care, unless you put Madeline in a difficult situation and distigure herr Sharon continued.

Thomas was shocked.

At this moment, Conner and Tiana also came. Tiana's reaction was almost similar to Sharon's when she saw Thomas. She frowned and stepped back for fear of being approached by him. Everyone treated Thomas with disdain.

Conner faked his smile. "Thomas, why didn't you tell us when you came to the capital? You came here quietly. If Mom knew about it, she would blame us for the poor reception." Thomas relaxed slightly when he saw Conner. He came here to look for him. "Conner, to tell you the truth, my family is having some linancial problems now, 1-*

Conner waved his hand and interrupted Thomas. "We are not here to have fun today. We all have important stuff to do,"

Thomas' heart sank

Conner changed the subject and smiled. "Let's drop the formalities. I know about relax and clear your mind. I'll cover the travel costs and expenses here." it your situation. Jus

Thomas said. "I don't need to travel now, I need to borrow for you. I promise I will pay you back as soon as possible."

money. There is still a shortage of around 600 thousand dollars. It's just a small amount

The family inheritance that Thomas missed out on wasn't just around 600 thousand dollars, not even around 6 billion dollars.

He was ousted from the capital by Conner and didn't take any money that was meant for him, so he wasn't being greedy when he asked for 600 thousand dollars.

*600 thousand dollars? Pointing at Thomas angrily, Tina raised her voice and said, "Are you crazy! You came here to ask for 600 thousand dollars. Do you think our family is a charity with so much money to get rid of you?"

Tiana took Conner by his arm. "Come on, let's ignore him! Even if Mom found out about this, it's impossible for him to get 000 thousand dollars

from us!

Seeing that they were about to leave. Thomas was anxious. His throat hurt so much that he fell directly on the ground and grabbed Conner's pants. His face was full of pain, and his eyes were filled with despair. "Conner, please don't turn a blind eye. Lend me the money, and I will pay it back on time! If I can't pay the debts, Joel's life will be ruined!"

At this moment, many people were already paying attention to the commotion

Conner looked visibly upset. He shook his leg in disgust and said, "Let go of me! I don't have that money!

"Get your dirty hands off my dad's pants!" Vanessa took out her wallet from her pocket, pulled out a stack of 20-dollar bills, and threw them an Thomas forehead.

"Didn't you want money? I already gave it to you! This is the money I gave you. Please b

When Vanessa threw a few hundred dollars at Thomas, he felt humiliated. He stood where he was. His expression changed, and his eyes were content, and don't be a disgrace!" Vanessa continued blades. The money on the ground was an insult to him. You guys have gone too far!
