Chapter 257
Layla was thrilled. She didn’t expect Madeline to agree with it
She felt relieved. After making an appointment with Madeline, she immediately called Thomas to let him know
She said. “Madeline agreed. She’ll go to the Larson residence tomorrow morning.
“Don’t keep saying that Tm money–minded. Isn’t Madeline the same?
“Once we get the dividends, I promise I’ll stop complaining all the time
After finishing the call. Layla hurried over to the car.
Harley asked as soon as he saw her, “Did she agree with it?
“Of course, we’re family. Why wouldn’t she agree? Layla sighed, “You’re all overthinking. It didn’t take me much time to convince her.”
Harley didn’t ask for more details. It was best when everyone was happy
Layla hardly slept at night, eagerly waiting for the next day to come.
Early in the morning, at about eight, Madeline washed up and chose a dress for the fall in her closet,
Yohannes stood at the door carrying the breakfast. “You’re really going to the Larson residence today? Are you

re you sure about it”
“Yeah, I’ll have some fun anyway. Why not?” Madeline said as the applied lipstick in front of the mirror to look better, “Are you worried about me. Yohannest
The minor reflected Yohannes face.
Yohannes looked at Madeline with a serious look. “Why would I be worried about you?
“You’re imagining things”
He lifted the bag in his hand. “Your breakfast.
Madeline nodded and turned around to Yohannes, thinking that he was really a weird person.
Yohannes said, “I’m going to shoot for a magazine today. I drop you off at the Larson residence
“I can go there by myself;”
Just as sh
Madeline smiled softly, putting down the clothes that she was holding and picking up her breakfast. Thanks anyway?” Yohannes clamped his lips together, staring at her.
as she was about to leave, he helplessly grabbed her arm and said softly. “Don’t forget the pain even if you’re over it
“Did you forget how the Larson family treated you! Do you need me to remind you of it?
Madeline said, sucking up soy milk through a straw. “I know what I’m doing
Yohannes looked down at Madeline, who was much shorter than him, and said more seriously, “If you really know what you are doing, you will stop seeing them. They’re just using you. They don’t love you Why do you believe them?”
Even though Yohannes acted like he didn’t care about her, deep down, he cared about her more than anyone else.
He said. “If you’re determined, I’ll go with you.”
“Yohannes” Madeline blinked. “Im not going to catch up with them. I’m just going to find out how miserable they are,
The Larson family in the capital won’t treat them very well. They’re probably exploiting them. They once neglected their own daughter.
“Now, they’ll be isolated and humiliated by their family. I won’t miss such an interesting drama
Madeline wasn’t someone who easily held grudges against other people,

She still remembered clearly how she had suffered because of them. She wanted to see with her own eyes their expressions when they experienced the same thing.
Besides, the Larson family wanted her to visit them and she was eager to find out what they were up to
Madeline said, “Okay, if you insist on it come with me.”
Yohannes’s face softened a bit. He raised his hand, about to touch her head but he hesitated for a while and then put his hand down,
He said, “Let me know when you’re ready to go.
Madeline leaned against the door and teased him. “Aren’t you supposed to be shooting for
ra magazine? Aren’t you in a hurry?”
Yohannes said. “Not at all.”
Yohannes left after he said that
Madeline couldn’t help but smil, wrinkling her nose, “H

At the Larson residence, Ruth was sitting in the main seat, warmly inviting Thomas to sit next to her. This seat used to be exclusive to her second son Sunny.
Ruth preferred Thomas over Sunny so Thomas looked unhappy. After all, it was he and his family that did all the work for the whole family. He wondered what right Thomas had to sit beside Ruth.
But Ruth seemed indifferent to her second son’s displeasure. She took Thomas’s hand and smiled kindly. “Thomas, you’re so quiet at home. I hardly ever get a chance to talk with you.
“Sharon is so unreasonable. It’s so inconvenient that you guys live so far away from us. Every trip here takes you a long ti
time.
“it’s my bad. I haven’t been feeling well this year. I don’t have that much energy to take care of everything”
Sharon quickly said. “It’s my fault, Buth. I was just worried that Thomas might not feel at ease if they stayed here with us. That’s why I arranged a house for them.
That house is quiet and spacious. I thought it would be perfect for them. It is my mistake. I forgot how far away it was. Thomas, I’m sorry. Please forgive me. You didn’t mention anything so I thought you were fine with it.
Sharon was flexible. She looked sincere, totally not afraid of taking the blame.
Ruth scolded. “You’re Thomas’s sister. He won’t blame it on yout
“You didn’t do it carefully because Thomas indulged you.
“Make sure you a
