The Remorseful Brothers novel Chapter 120

Chapter 120 

Madeline followed Gavin to the supermarket. He pushed a small shopping cart, thinking about recipes as he calmly picked out ingredients. His loog, graceful hand reached out to pick up a loofah, examining it like a fine piece of jade. “Nice and fresh, he remarked 

The woman at the supermarket laughed. “Wow, young man, you’re so handsome. Cooking for your girlfriend, huh?” 

Madeline blushed. “No, we’re not.. 

“That’s right” Gavin turned back and took Madeline’s hand, giving it a slight shake. “She’s so stupid. She can’t even cook for herself. If I’m not home for two days, all she eats is takeout. Now that I’m back. I have to whip up something good for her. Even though he sounded dismissive, his eyes were filled with love and pride. 

Madeline’s bright eyes were filled with embarrassment as she tried to pull her hard away. Yet, Gavin held it so tightly that she couldn’t move it at all. 

She signaled for Gavin to let go, but he just turned and raised an eyebrow at her. 

“Young lady, you should treasure this guy. Good guys like him are rare these dayst A man who’s great at both social events and cooking must be really popular. You’d better keep an eye on him so other girls don’t take him away,” said the woman. 

Madeline gave an awkward but polite smile. “Ma’am, we’re not together yet.” 

“It’s just a matter of time, Gavin said confidently. “Besides, my love is genuine. Nobody can take you away from me. With one hand holding Madeline’s and the other pushing the cart, he added, “A sunny boy like me can totally win your stomach, and you won’t be able to escape” 

Madeline stuck her tongue out. 

Gavin pulled her in from of him, resting his chin on her fluffy head while he hugged her and pushed the shopping cart. It was like holding a child 

close. 

“Maddie, look. Are those fish fresh! Which one do you want to eat? They were so close. Gavin even stopped and put his arm around her waist. 

The fish tanks glowed with a blue light. The woman behind them couldn’t help but sigh. “Ah, young love is so sweet” 

Madeline placed a bottle of seasoning in the cart and casually mentioned, “I ran into Thomas at the restaurant today.” 

“Oh!” Gavin responded with mild interest, glancing at the label. “What did he say?” 

“He said I should come back to the Larson residence tomorrow because the Larson family is throwing me a birthday party. They’re up to no good,” said Madeline. 

Just a bunch of clowns, Gavin chuckled as he ran his fingers through her hair, catching a hint of her soft scent. He couldn’t help but smile, “How about you go and humiliate a bit? I come with you and see what they’re really up to.” 

Madeline snorted, “No way! She didn’t want to go to the Larson residence and see those disgusting people. 

“I know you don’t want to go, but I’m really curious,” Gavin said with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. Madeline couldn’t see the cold indifference In his gaze.

Gavin tickled Madeline at her waist, making her laugh and effortlessly changing the subject. “So, what kind of fish do you want? Carp or bream?” Madeline stepped back.

Just as she was about to touch the wet fish tank, Gavin reached out and gently booked her neck with his ha Madeline bumped into Gavin’s chest, her nose filled with his fresh, sunny scent. Her eyelashes fluttered, and she felt a chill at the back of her neck. She quickly stood up straight

place for her to be alone. 

She stretched her back and took a deep breath. It was her first role, and she was determined to make the most of it. Madeline’s eyes sparkled with determination, like two little flames 

The phone on the coffee table started ringing, Gavin picked it up and realized it was Madeline’s phone. 

Gavin grumbled, “That stupid girl. She left her phone behind.” He sat on the couch, seeing Layla’s name on the screen of the incoming call. 

He leaned forward a bit, resting his arms on his knees with a brooding look, then ended the call. He then sent a text, I’ll arrive on time tomorrow. With a cruel smile, he deleted the message as well. 

At the Larson residence, Layla had called Madeline just to feel things out, but it was no surprise that the call wasn’t answered. “This birthday party is going to flop. Madeline definitely won’t come. What am I supposed to say when Sharon comes?”
