My Repentant Brothers by Grace Edith

Chapter 52

Winslet pretended to be concerned and said, "You seem a little down lately. It must be because of her, and 1 feel bad seeing you like this,"

"Leouldn't fall asleep last night while thinking about Maddie. However, I didn't dare mention it because I feared my family would feel uncomfortable."

Lucas was a bit trembled.

"I know you're sad." Winslet looked at Lucas and sighed. "How about going to the conference tonight! We can distract ourselves."

Winslet said with a look of innocence, "Jacob mentioned that if we could make connections with some influential people this time, it would greatly beneft our business... I was hoping we could meet the CEO of Glorious Group tonight. It would alleviate the stress for both Jacob and Daddy..."

Winslet was still trying to develop her character persona

She pretended she wanted to attend the conference for the Larson family, not for herself.

She looked at Lucas, hoping that he could understand her feelings.

Lucas said expressionlessly. We've known each other for 18 years"

Winslet was slightly stunned. "Yes, we've known each other for 18 years

Lucas looked into Winslet's eyes.

He remembered when Winslet was a child. She would refuse to go out for half a month when a rabbit died.

She couldn't eat or sleep well.

Now, that Madeline had died.

Winslet could go to the banquet and remain calm

It was clear that she had been the most concerned and consert veron in the Larson family when it came to Madeline.

The difference between before and after was thought-provoking

"Did you really care about Maddie before!"

"Of course!" Winslet's palms were cold and sweaty. "Lucas, do you think I am indifferent?TM

She forced out tears and said, "I'm also sad. I am so sorry for Maddie... But she tried to save us. I have to take on her responsibility. I don't dare to show my sadness. I just want you to be fine. If I can't hold on, Mom will blame herself even more... "If I haven't seen it with my own eyes just now, I might have believed your words.

How could you smile so happily behind my back? Lucas said inwardly.

Then Lucas frowned and said, "Winnie, I thought I knew you well enough. You wouldn't consider attending the conference because of your close relationship with Maddie. It appears that your care and love for Maddie were all insincere" Winslet took Lucas hand and said, "Lucas, I'm here for the family. You know how much Daddy values this conference. I won't go if you don't want me to go, okay!"

Winslet lowered her gaze and burst into tears, "Lucas, please don't misunderstand me like this."

Lucas didn't know why he was upset.

He let go of her hand, somewhat disappointed, and said, "Let me calm down first before we talk." Winslet watched as Lucas walked out.
