My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)

Over on the sofa, Layla looked confused as she watched Thomas whispering to Charles. She didn't understand why Charles came with Brunswick Thomas was just letting the two sit there without inviting the two to join them

She couldn't really say anything. But she thought today was really a great day. Not only did Sharon come, but Brunswick, the chairman, way 100. It seemed the Larson family was finally having some good luck. here

Layla couldn't help but smile a little and said to Sharon. "This is the chairman of the chamber of commerce in Acocester, who kindly stopped by for

Sharon was indifferent, not even considering a chairman from Acocester worth noticing. She felt a bit disdainful inside, thinking Layla had really been away from Japrium for too long. Her perspective had become so narrow-minded. They treated a random person here as a big shot.

Charles patted Thomas on the arm. Thomas, my friend, it's the perfect occasion since it's your daughter's birthday today, a good sign. Saying some nice things now might change their minds and get them to forgive me. Don't worry. I promise I'll remember your help, and afterward, all the resources from our collaboration will be shared with the Larson family"

This was a massive temptation. But some temptations weren't easy to seize just because he wanted them.

"Mr. Lane." Thomas suddenly grabbed Charles's arm, his face showing concern. "This isn't really the time for talk"

"What's wrong!" Charles frowned, thinking Thomas was trying to stir up trouble on purpose. He glanced at Brunswick, considering that there was the chairman of the chamber of commerce to back him up today. He thought, 'Is Thomas really bold enough to not give Mr. Lowe any respect! Has he really become that arrogant!

with the fake sapphire. "This really isn't the right time.

"It's not that I don't want to help you," Thomas explained, describing the issue with

Charles didn't know what to say. He looked at Thomas thinking. This guy is such a fool. Gavin comes from an extremely influential background. and he is actually questioning if Gavin's gift is fake? The sapphire doesn't matter at all. Even if Gavin gives him a simple stone from the street he should still appreciate it like a valuable treasure"

Thomas you..." Brunswick couldn't help but frown from the side. He had seen the Larson family's foolishness before. It seemed they never learned.

Bryan hesitated. "Dad. Mr. Lowe, what should we do now?Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Brunswick sighed, "It was your fault. You all will just have to face it and go apologize

Charles took a deep breath, gathered his courage, and headed over with a bax.

Layla saw Brunswick finally come over. She quickly nudged Winslet. "Winnie, they are Mr. Lane, Bryan, and Mr. Lowe. The Labiche family, remember? I've told you about them. The one with the publicly traded company"

As Bryan approached, Winslet quickly put on a sweet smile. "Mr. Labiche, I'm so glad to meet you. You're even more..." Bryan couldn't be bothered with Winslet, his eyes focused on Madeline and Gavin. "Mr. Newton, Ms. Larson, nice to Winslet's smile froze. She thought. Seriously! He is here for Madeline again! Not this again...

to see you again."

Madeline tilted her head, touching her chin with her finger. "Oh, Mr. Labiche." She remarked with a gaze that was both amused and a bit distant, her lips curling into a faintly cool smile.

Bryan swallowed nervously, still feeling the faint soreness from the lesson he had that day. "Ms. Larson, I heard it's your birthday today, so I came with my father to congratulate you. Look, this is a small gift we prepared.

carefully placed a set of jewelry on the table and opened it. It was a collection of precious emeralds, and they were beautiful.

"Not bad." Madeline picked up the bracelet from the set and examined it closely. "But... I don't know if you have any bad intentions or

Br not

Bryan's smile was awkward as he rubbed his hands, bending over slightly. "I wouldn't dare! Last time, I was foolish and offended you by accident. I won't ever do it again. After I went home that day, I reflected on myself and my parents gave me a stern lecture. After days of thinking it over, I've completely changed. Please, give me another chance."

Charles, standing to the side, also chuckled along, occasionally joining in with apologies

However, Gavin didn't have much of a reaction. He didn't even bother to give Bryan a glance.

Bryan turned to Harley for help, looking almost desperate. "Harley, you're not mad at me, right? We've been classmates, so please don't hold it against me. I was always jealous of how you were better at everything. That was why I acted so foolishly before and offended you. I was just so messed up inside and so racious of you

337 PM

Harley's expression was cold as he looked at Bryan. He then turned away. He didn't think for a moment that Bryan was apologizing to him. Clearly, the apology was directed at Madeline and Gavin. "It's useless to say this to me." Layla seemed a bit flustered and asked Thomas, "Honey, what's happening here? Did Mr. Lane and Mr. Lowe come specifically to apologize? What is Gavin's real capability?"

Thomas didn't look happy as he glanced at Layla, feeling frustrated inside but unable to say anything in public. He thought, Why does Layla always start causing trouble? Now I am really in a tight spot

Madeline sat on the couch. looking at the young man beside her. "Cavin, did you do something to the Labiche family!"

"No," Gavin said, looking innocent and frowning a bit. "I don't even get what they're talking about. I'm just a regular college student. How can I have that much influence?"

He took the sapphire from Madeline's hand and sighed, "Even the sapphire is a knock-off, not worth much. For someone like me who just pretends to be more impressive, how could I actually take on a publicly traded company?" family for being such fools. Running

At that moment, Charles was really swallowing his anger. He was extremely resentful toward Thomas and his fa into them felt like it was his bad luck.

He frowned but gave a cheerful smile of disagreement. "No, I think this sapphire is obviously very valuable. Honestly, I also buy sapphires for my family, but compared to yours, they're really inexpensive. This has to be worth millions, definitely." Brunswick chimed in to support his friend, I think so too. Do you mind if I take a look?"

Gavin put down the sapphire,

Brunswick carefully held the box, examined it closely, and suddenly realized. This sapphire is definitely of heirloom quality. Mr. Newton, there's no way this was bought here. It must have been brought from Japrium, right"

Gavin slightly

y curled his lips. "Of course."

Brunswick nodded and laughed

"Oh, that's easy enough Charles, always the smart one, immediately took out his phone. "Til call the jewelry expert, Dillon Perry, to check it out. One look and he'll know if it's a genuine million-dollar sapphire. I'm sure it is. I don't know why Mr. Newton would say it's a fake. You must be joking."

Sharon initially regarded them as a bunch of bumpkins. She thought, 'Can the business circle in Acocester compare to Japrium's? It is like watching country folks play pretend. When my brothers make a move, they deal in 30 million dollars at least. It wasn't until she heard Dillon's name that her eyes brightened. "Is Mr. Perry also in Acocester?"
