My Repentant Brothers by Grace Edith

Chapter 34

Meanwhile, at the Larson residence, Thomas sat on the couch with his five sons around him.

There was a pile of fancy gifts on the coffee table.

Winslet sat in the middle of them, wearing a new branded dress like a little princess.

She enjoyed being the center of everyone's attention and admiration.

Benjamin dragged Madeline forcefully and felt sorry for treating her that way. "If Madeline came back with us willingly. things wouldn't have gone out of hand."
