The Remorseful Brothers (Linda and Wilson) novel Chapter 176

Chapter 176 

Three day’s had passed. After running out of options, Thomas and Layla decided to stay at a friend’s house. Layla, sensing their host’s discomfort, was equally uneasy. 

Finally, Thomas decided to make a trip to the capital. Layla looked at Thomas packing and asked, “Should I accompany you? Sharon had made it clear that she would make things hard for us before she left last time. You’re not even sure how they’ll treat you this time.“. 

“Since you already know, it’s better if you don’t come. We’re already imposing here. Everything will be fine tomorrow once I borrow the money from the Larson family. Thomas shook his head, waving her off. 

Layla understood that Thomas was out of options. Ever since their business started to decline, those so–called friends had all kept their distance. 

Thomas had always been a proud man, and he disliked the Larson family in the capital. His decision to borrow money from them demonstrated how desperate he was. 

Early the next morning, Thomas drove to the capital. Coincidentally, Madeline followed Caleb to the capital by plane. 

On the plane, Madeline flipped through a magazine, yawning out of boredom. “Why are we heading to the capital so early? What are we going to 

do!” 

“There’s an exclusive conference. I’m taking you to broaden your connections. If you’re tired, go ahead and sleep. I’ll wake you when we get there,” Caleb said, patting Madeline’s head. 

Madeline glanced sideways at Caleb’s stern face and smiled. She leaned her head against his shoulder. Caleb always exuded an air of refinement. His cashmere coat, handcrafted in lugrea, felt soft to the touch. The deep gray color also gave off a calm vibe. 

With her eyes half closed, Madeline touched Caleb’s coat. “Caleb, you should attend the conference alone. I know nothing about business. If you take me, all I’ll do is eat and drink” 

“That’s fine. You’re on winter break now, right? It’s a great opportunity to visit the capital to relax and have fun.” Caleb smiled. He turned sideways, resting his handsome face against Madeline’s hair. 

His gaze held an unprecedented softness as he coaxed her gently in a deep voice, saying, “You’ve been working hard, balancing both studying and acting. You deserve a break. From now on, I’ll take you on a vacation every year during your break, okay?” 

Madeline smiled and nodded. “Okay. You can’t go back on your words” She felt much warmer snuggled up to Caleb. Then, she let out a sigh and quickly fell asleep. 

Caleb, holding a newspaper, cast a careful glance at her face. After six months of recuperation, Madeline, Her fair skin was soft with a rosy glow. Up close, he could see fine, soft facial hairs on her slightly chubby checks. 

who was once frail, now looked healthier. 

Madeline shone brightly in the winter sunlight. With just one glance, Caleb wanted to shower her with affection. He couldn’t help but wish to hold her tight and keep her with him forever. Smiling, he turned his gaze away, closed his eyes, and leaned against her to take a nap. 

When Madeline woke up. Caleb gently rubbed her check. Still groggy, she stood up and allowed him to lead her off the plane while holding her hand

When Madeline heard that, she was taken aback. “We’re siblings she exclaimed inwardly. 

Caleb kept a firm hold on her hand, making sure she didn’t get separated from him in the crowd. With his other hand, he pulled her luggage. Madeline’s suitcase was cute. It was yellow and small. Caleb didn’t bring any luggage since he lived in the capital. 

Outside the airport, a group of people was waiting for them. As soon as Calch appeared, about a dozen people respectfully bowed and greeted Caleb and Madeline. “Greetings, Mr. Simmons and Ms. Larson.” 

Madeline got into the car and noticed several other vehicles following closely behind, surrounding theirs protectively. Confused, she asked. “Caleb, are they protecting you secretly?” 

“Not really, It’s pretty 

obvious. Caleb chuckled. 

Madeline was confused. Caleb’s fighting abilities were terrifying, and he didn’t require others to protect him at all. She leaned close to the window and looked out again.
