The Remorseful Brothers Novel

Chapter 209

Shirnn sad nervoudly, “Laura, this is Mr. Eugene Sharp.”

Laura sneered, “Well, I’ve never heard of any Mr. Sharp. There’s no such person ranked in Japrium”

Laura had been working for Ruth for many years, making her almost like a co–leader in the household. As a result, her status was clearly distinct from that of onlinary servants.

laude and out, all the servants listened to Laura.

So. Laura carried herself with a bit of authority.

Laura glanced at Eugene and Madeline and said, “Ms. Larson, unruly people like them should be kicked out with a stick!

“According to the old rules, breaking family rules meant kneeling without food or water in the chapel for three days!”

“Laura, please don’t,” Sharon said, rubbing her forehead, wishing she could just vanish and escape

e it all.

Sharon sighed and thought to herself, ‘Can’t you all just shut up?”

Sharon didn’t dare upset Ruth’s trusted side. After all, Laura had been with the Larson family for decades and was almost like family.

Sharon also avoided upsetning Madeline and Fugene because she knew they were influential

Now, Sharon truly felt she was facing a dilemma.

Having once navigated high society with ease, Sharon never thought she’d find herself in such an awkward situation.

While Sharon was frustrated, Vanessa was absolutely thrilled.

Vanessa suppressed a smirk and said, “Madeline, this is what sets you apart from the elite families. Here, no one will really care about yo

“You might think you’re special, but you don’t realize it’s others who have the real power and influence.

“Even if you’re leaning on a man, it doesn’t really count as your own skill”

Vanessa was sarcastic

Ter deep down, she hated Madeline.

Vanesa endured both physical abuse and humiliation, while the person she had feelings for, Eugene, was taken away by Madeline

Thinking about it, Vanessa quickly added to stir things up. “Mr. Sharp, you’d better not associate with her much.

“She’s just a woman who only cares about power and money, not worth

Madeline tilted her head and asked, “Really?”

Eugene seered, “Did I ask for your opinion!”

your care”

Vanessa believed that Eugene felt defeated and couldn’t accept that Madeline was disloyal. She thought he must not have seen Madeline’s true

cature.

Vanessa wondered. “Madeline is probably scared of Grandma. She came here with Eugene to avoid being too timid:

So Vanessa still had hope for Eugene. If she

e could expose Madeline, Eugene would definitely change his mind.

By then. Eugene would know that Vanessa was the best choice!

Wearing a moccasin and exuding a sense of superiority, Vanessa stated, “Even if Madeline doesn’t acknowledge that she climbs the social ladder with the help of men, we all know it deep down.

“Mr. Sharp, being around someone like her will only harm your reputation.”

Eugene was already feeling annoyed by such words.

Vanessa kept saying the same few lines, without anything new.

Eugene was well aware that Madeline had many men around her, but it was different from what Vanessa thought

Eugene’s expression was ley, and his normally cheerful eyes went cold and intense.

ngue so you can ne

i can never speak again.”

Eugene warned. “If you dare speak ill of Madeline again, I won’t hesitate to cut out your tongue so

Hearing this. Vanessa couldn’t help but shiver at the threat

+

She felt sad, but when the thought about the risk to her tongue, she wisely kept quiet

When Eugene became serious, he looked really intimidating.

Vanessa had no doubt that Eugene was definitely capable of carrying out his threat.

Madeline sighed and said. “Forget it. Eugene, let’s go.

“Staying here any longer is just a waste of time

Then Madeline walked to the door.

From behind, she heard footsteps coming down the stairs and Vanessa’s sweet voice calling out, “Grandma, weren’t you taking a nap? What brings you down!

“Madeline is about to leave. She doesn’t want to meet you. It seems she’s not very sincere.

“She’s just calculating”

An elderly voice filled with disdain interrupted, “Hmph, young people today are so impatient. They arrive late and act as if they’re in a hurry to leave. As juniors, they should show patience and wait for their elders!

be present in you.”

“None of the long–standing traditions of the Larson family seem so be

Laura quickly moved to assist Ruth and said, “Mr. Larsen, weren’t you tired! Why skip your nap today? You might get a headache later.

Ruth chided sarcastically. “If I don’t come down now, how would I see such spectacles? That Layla is truly out of her depth, and her daughter is just like herl

“Pretty faces with the brains of a rock and no manners to speak of

“People like them should just get out of the Larson family before they ruin our atmosphere and disrupt our price!”

Hearing this, Madeline suddenly stopped.

She hadn’t even faced Buth to say a word, yet she was already being criticized as if she was worthless

The way Ruth ulked was really harsh

Madeline turned her head, looking at the mean elderly figure dressed in linen, leaning on a cane

The glasses perched on Ruth’s nose sagged dightly, her drooping eyelids hiding half of her eyes.

Ruth’s lips were tightly pressed, corners turned down, making her seem very difficult to get along with.

Madeline said, “Mrs. Larson, if I’m not mistaken, it was you who invited as to the Larson residence.

“What, have you forgotten due to your age!

“Did we beg to come here?”

Seeing Madeline get furious, Eugene quickly put an arm around her shoulder and said with a smile, “Madeline, don’t bother with the elders; we should respect them. After all, with her looking so grim, who knows, she might not make it through the night to see tomorrow’s sun”

Madeline couldn’t help but glance at Eugene for his harsh words.

Ruth was particularly sensitive to the topic of death, and she became furious as soon as she heard Eugene’s words.

Ruth might look old–fashioned, but that was just how she appeared..

She was actually only 69 years old.

She was nowhere near her end ye

Ruth could easily live another twenty years.

Annoyed, Ruth tapped her cane sharply and snapped, “Where are the security guards? It seems like a bunch of clueless strangers can waltz in here!

“I think our staff are getting more undisciplined by the day. We might need to replace them”

Chapter 209

Laura quickly explained, “He says he’s Ms. Madeline Larson’s boyfriend.”

“Boy friend” Ruth glanced at Madeline, then at Eugene, sneering. I must say, every pot has its lid!”

Eugene wasn’t upset by the remark.

Actually, he thought it made sense.

Eugene believed a man like him, successful and considerate, was meant to be with a woman like Madeline, which made his life worthwhile.

Eugene nodded and said. “It’s a bit blunt, but it’s true. Madeline and I are a perfect match.”

Ruth fell silent

Laura said nothing either.

Sharon had never been this helpless before, thinking, “Does he really take those words as a compliment? He seems eager to claim that title.”

Vanessa shot a jealous glance at Madeline and stomped her foot in frustration. She wanted to be a perfect match with Eugene too, and if that was impossible. Caleb would do.

Vanessa thought, Why does Madeline get to have both?

Damned Madeline”
