My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)

The rain was chilling to the bone.

Henry looked at Madeline with pity. This was so-

This was so unfair

Henry said, "Madeline, don't agree. It's not worth it! How can she just take away everything you've worked hard for so easily?

Under the eaves, Madeline trembled. Her eyes were red as she stared intently at Layli

Madeline's voice was hoarse, "You must remember to keep your promise to me."

in front of her

Layla sneered and said, "Of course. You should've listened to us from the start. Don't worry, the money your father promised to give you will soon be transferred to your grandparents, "Just remember, you're not allowed to contact your grandparents anymore. We're not a charity, and we can't keep helping them time after time.

"Three strikes and you're out. You're part of the Larson family now, so stop worrying about outsiders all the time"

Madeline lowered her eyes as rain slid off her long lashes. She nodded gently and said, "I understand,"

She bent low, a shadow of her former pride.

"Oh night, since you agreed, don't leave the house for a while. I'm worried you might try something sticky," Layla said before heading inside. Madeline hesitated for a moment before stepping inside, soaking wet, She barely made it to the room before nearly collapsing,

"Madeline!" Henry rushed over to help, but missed as he stumbled.

Madeline had always been frail, and this time she was down with a persistent fever, stuck in bed for two weeks.

By the time Madeline was feeling a bit better, Winslet had already left for college.

The house had been bustling lately, and even though Madeline hadn't stepped outside, she could sense the family's happiness.

Madeline thought. Is there really something to celebrate!

Winslet got what she wanted, but is it worth all the happines@

"It was me who sacrificed everything!"

In the house. Madeline listened to the servants chatting about Winslet going to college. It felt like a knife was slowly digging into her heart

When Layla returned from shopping and noticed Madeline, without much interest, she asked, "Madeline, are you

feeling better!

"You've been so unwell lately that you were too sick to even see Winslet off.

"What are your plans now! Are you going to enroll in a vocational school, or repeat the SAT!

Madeline glanced sideways at Layla, her expression as cold as ice, and the light in her eyes was gone.

Madeline said, "Give me 20,000 dollars, and I'll sort it out myself."

Layla was taken aback and said, "What do you need so much money for? I suggest you don't get ahead of yourself. Being too greedy is no good. "Even if you repeat the year, it shouldn't cost 20,000 dollars. What exactly are you planning! You better be honest." Madeline's tone was cold when she replied, "If you don't give it to me, I'll expose Winsle

"Are you threatening me?" Layla's face darkened. Seeing the firm determination on Madeline's face, Layla thought for a moment and then gave in. Layla said, "Fine, I give you 20,000 dollars, but you'd better get out of the Larson residence without causing trouble!" Madeline didn't care what Layla said, feeling dead inside.

That night, Madeline packed her few belongings and took a bus to the capital.

She never returned to Accester, not even until her deaths.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Henry

She stood there in a red gown, under the glare of cameras, holding a trophy.

She was young, beautiful, and resilient

She was like a blooming flower, never withering despite the wind and rain. However, beneath that beauty, there were countless stars

Everything came to an end, but it just happened too soon.

Henry felt a complex mix of emotions, both painful and confused, as he hadn't expected the ending to be like this

He had thought Madeline could work as an actress and live a happy life.

However, before Madeline could enjoy a few good days, the Larson family appeared on a hearted. She was scorned by the public and despised by everyone.

a show to accuse Madeline of being ungrateful and cold-

At an age that should have been filled with the vibrancy of spring flowers, Madeline tragically lout her life in a late-night car accident, leaving belund a reputation as tamished as that of a despised creature.

Not even the moonlight shone on the dark street corner.

Henry stood on the road, watching the car burn and turn into ashes.

With tears in his eyes. Henry walked into the flames, his soal turning to ashes with Madeline's departing life,

Madeline in the burning wreck was slumped over the steering wheel, her body covered in blood.

Henry stood outside the window, reaching out to touch Madeline's face, and said, "Madeline, I'm sorry... I'm sorry. I owe you a life..."

Henry spoke with a choked voice, the flames consuming his soul and causing a deep, shuddering pain.

Yet. Henry remained there, in an unseen place, completely losing all feelings.

Everything was ever n

The hospital was still just as cold and quiet

Someone was shouting, Doctor, the patient is awake! He moved!"

Henry heard a voice near his ear, but it sounded so distant.

He couldn't move at all, feeling warmth on his face. His eyes hurt, blurred by tears

Henry's whole body was in intense pain, as if it had been scorched by fire. He was stiff and unable to move.

Layla and Thomas quickly rushed into the ward.

Layla exclaimed, "Didn't they say my son showed some response?

On the bed, Henry was crying silently.

Seeing this, Layla and Thomas felt overwhelmed with emotion

Why is he still lying in bed? Henry, wake up!"

Thomas held onto Henry's hand and said, "Henry, you finally woke up! It's been a month."

Thomas's voice was low as he held back his grief. He said, "Open your eyes and look at us. Don't go back to sleep. The doctor said if you don't wake up soon, you might end up in a coma. You're young, and you have a long way ahead. Don't give up" Henry remained unconscious until late at night.

The doctor checked everything and confirmed Henry was just too tired.

At around three in the morning. Henry finally regained consciousness. He slowly opened his eyes to see the white ceiling and smell the disinfectant

In the air

By the bed, Layla's eyes were tearful. She tried to speak but couldn't find the words, just holding Henry's hand and saying. "Finally, you're awake. sun, you're finally awake. You don't know what the past month has been like for me. I couldn't eat or sleep, fearing Id wake up to hear bad news about you. How could you be so reckless? How did you dare to take on so many dangerous people all by yourself? Didn't you think about what would happen to us if you were hurt?"

Henry furrowed his brow and pulled his hand back coldly. Scenes he had witnessed flashed through his mal, his chest heaving with both

and resentmen

Henry said, "Stop it. I don't have such a cruel mom like

you.
