My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)

Chapter 296

Gavin suddenly realized he had slipped his tongue.

He coughed and smoothly shifted the conversation, "We can give y trains you, you'll definitely become an expert.

"You don't need to learn from a stranger. After all, people aren't always as they appear, and you can't completely trust others."

Madeline rested her chin on her hand and nodded, saying, "That's true."

Then Madeline quickly forgot about the Harriet incident.

She thought, "With twelve instructors teaching me self-defense, why look elsewhere? There's no need to leave home. My bodyguards are exceptional If Ander can't resolve the issue for me, I doubt I could manage it after a quick crash course.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

The next day, Harriet didn't find Madeline at the training field.

Harriet even went to the restaurant but still didn't End Madeline.

Harriet was a bit mad and said, "Why does she do this? We had an agreement! How could she break her promise?"

The shopkeeper chuckled and said, "You can't blame her for not trusting you. If everyone trusted strangers easily, there'd be even more women getting tricked. We can never harm others, but we should always be cautious. And you've been lying about your identity. Don't you even know what you're up to!"

Harriet pouted, crossing her arms defiantly. She raised an eyebrow and said. "I was just... It was just to close the gap between us. We did notice her first, and more people will set their sights on her soon. Anyway, I don't care. She broke her promise first. Em going to stake out her place tomorrow morning.

Madeline had no idea that someone as seemingly insignificant as she was could find herself caught up in all this trouble.

As Madeline went out in the evening to buy some fruit, she always had the feeling that someone was tailing her.

When Madeline turned around, a bouquet was thrown at

at her.

Even though Madeline managed to dodge it, the strong smell still got into her nose and made her sneeze. "Achool" Rubbing her nose, Madeline wondered, Who is so rude, throwing trash around?"

Madeline didn't think much of it, picked up her fruit, and headed home.

Her place was near the university, not really a proper apartment complex-more like an old-fashioned building.

Even though it was close to the campus and convenient, the environment wasn't very pleasant.

At the street corner, Vanessa and Monica were sitting in a car, watching Madeline with mischievous expressions, Vanessa asked, "Monica, what did you spray on that bouquet?"

Monica candidly remarked, "It's definitely something that can ruin someone's appearance-certainly not good. It's just a cheap trick from the martial world. I got it from my cousin to play around with. Our family members have stopped their revenge for now. I have no idea what's going on, but they're being really cautious. But I can't just let her get away with it so easily. She's responsible for my cousin's death! This isn't over!"

Vanessa couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine. She asked, "What exactly is the martial world?"

Monica replied, "Although Clusia is stable for now, the influence of the manial world is increasing, If things become turbulent, we'll need to depend on the martial world for everything. Some of my older cousins have advanced martial cultivation and are already at the Master level. They are quite powerful, and wherever they go, people either fear them or try to win them over. The martial world operates under its own rules and culture." Monica quickly explained it to Vanessa but couldn't elucidate it

Monica only knew that her family's influence in the capital mainly came from her uncle being a significant figure in the martial world, which made everyone fearful and respectful towards the Williams family.

Monica said, "Vanessa, I'm taking you along this time, which means I've forgiven you. But if you get involved with Madeline again, you'll be my enemy. Understand!"

Vanessa met Monica's cold gaze and quickly nodded, saying, "Yeah. Don't worry. I'd be happy if she just dropped dead!"

Madeline was waiting for the elevator, thinking about the car by the road, narrowing her

Chapter 296

It was hard for Madeline not to notice it.

A luxury car with a familiar license plate was parked there. Who else could it be but Monica?

Madeline whispered to the undercover guards, "Help me return that bouquet to them, but be careful. There's something off about those flowers. Wear a mask and don't touch them directly."

Without worrying about whether anyone heard her words, Madeline went straight into the elevator.

Bobby had come around again to deliver groceries, filling the fridge to the brim. He had to go on a business trip to pick up a valuable antique, so he left right after.

In the living room. Madeline called Nolan to tell him about the bouquet that had smashed her.

On the other end, there was a brief silence. The Nolan said, "Maddie, give me about three hours. I'll hurry over, but I have surgery to perform- should take around an hour and a half. It's for one of my former teachers, so I have to do it in person." Nolan's steady voice sounded steady and reassuring

Madeline said, "Nolan, no hurry. I was just asking. If something really happens to me, I know how to get to the hospital myself. Besides, it's just my guess. I might be overworried. Focus on your surgery and don't worry about me. Go ahead with the procedure." Madeline finished talking and hung up before Nolan could reply.

Madeline couldn't help but feel annoyed with herself, thinking. I really shouldn't have bothered Nolan for such a minor issue. Next time, I should handle it myself. They all have their own things to manage

Thinking so, Madeline got up, opened the fridge, and took out some carrots, peppers, and lean meat. She wondered, Gavin will be back in half an hour. I need to get dinner ready quickly.

Then the sound of running water echoed from the kitchen.

Madeline played a cooking video tutorial on her phone.

While Madeline was cutting the carrot into thin

thin strips, she felt a bit hot in the kitchen. The peppers made her hands burn.

Suddenly, Madeline felt dizzy, and the carrot she was holding dropped to the floor. She put down the knife and leaned on the kitchen counter to Meady herself.

Everything in front of her seemed to spin Acting on instinct, Madeline managed to turn off the stove and splashed some cold water on her face. However, Madeline didn't feel any better. She couldn't figure out what was causing these symptoms. Could it be an allergy? Or maybe there was something else mixed in with the flowers!

At this time, someone knocked on the door.

Thinking it was Gavin who returned, Madeline walked over to open the door. Before she saw who was there, she went weak and collapsed into the person outside.

The person said, "Madeline! Are you pretending? If it weren't for my boss telling me to win you over, I wouldn't even bother cleaning up your
