The Remorseful Brothers (Linda and Wilson) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 

Thomas only figured out what had happened after asking around. 

Winslet was so bent on going abroad that she took all the money she could. Before she left, the destroyed Joel too. 

Layla asked cautiously. “Honey, can we go look for her? Can we get our money back!” 

“Wake up.” Thomas‘ gaze was cold. “If she’s capable of framing Madeline so many times before, she won’t show us mercy now. We need to sell our family property to secure things for Joel. Otherwise, we’ll only be dragged into bankruptcy and have the court auction our property“ 

Then, someone called. Annoyed, Thomas put them on speakerphone. The person on the phone announced, “Hello, this is Flight Unit 362. As we can’t contact Joel, please tell him he has been dismissed from the army due to debt charges and to complete the cancellation procedures immediately. Otherwise, we’ll issue legal notice 

Thomas hung up and shut his eyes in agony. 

He said, “Because of Winslet, Harley lost his college professorship, and Henry decided to leave the family. Also, Jarob hates us and has been hurting. himself. Then, Joel gets expelled from his flight unit because he owes 2 million dollars. Now, Lucas is missing too. He’s even changed his number” 

Thomas looked at Layla. “Is it really worth it for the family to break up like thi 

Feeling heartache, Layla apologized. “It’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have been biased toward Winslet and helped her. I hurt Madeline, so I got my karma–Winslet hurt me too.” 

There was no way Layla didn’t regret it. She regretted it so much she was kicking herself. 

Recently, she tried contacting Madeline daily to no avail. She only chose Madeline now because Winslet proved herself to be bad. Madeline was never her first choice. 

Thomas sighed. “Let’s divorce.”

Layla trembled. “What did you say?

Thomas had made up his mind. While waving, he promised, “You don’t have to bear any debts. I’ll compensate everything. Thats at least better than you becoming penniless. I’ve been thinking about mending my ways and returning to the capital, but it hasn’t worked out” 

When he opened his eyes again, he suddenly seemed to have aged. “Perhaps I really should accept my fate.” It’s a shame, I’ve been scheming for half of my life, but all I did was hurt my biological daughter. What’s worse is that I let outsiders get what they want, he thought. 

“Wait. Didn’t you get a check for 2 million dollars from Winsler? Can’t we use that to pay our debis Layla questioned. 

The principal is 2 million dollars, and the interest is 3 million dollars. If Thomas continued, he knew he’d be more pissed off, so he ceased speaking entirely. After selling the family property, there will only be a little bit of money left. We’ll see what to do then, he thought 

For days on end, it was overcast at the Larson residence. 

Madeline was surprised to see the Larson family selling their property while being on set with the film crew for the last day of 

filming 

Lucas served Madeline coffee and water. He was so attentive in caring for her that he seemed more devoted and loyal to her than her actual 

assistant was. 

People who didn’t know better would’ve thought Lucas was Madeline’s assistaim. 

Luisa couldn’t help but taunt, “Laicas, you’re an actor and a pleasant character in the movie. Why are you trying to please Maddie! Do you owe her money!”

Luisa was gossipy. Did Lusas once betray Madeline? she wondered, rubbing her chin. “No wonder Madeline ignored you as if you were her meny and you tried appeasing her even more spiritedly once she did

“Please, don’t mind it. Just think of it as the food you bought yourself. I’m just an errand boy” Lucas pleaded. 

Lucas joined this ɓlm crew just to appease Madeline and make her pay attention to him. 

However, Madeline didn’t come here often, so Lucas could only seize every bit of time to wait on her. He only hoped she would see him o
