The Remorseful Brothers

Chapter 144

Willow followed behind Madeline as she said, “Ms. Larson, why don’t we ride in my car? My cafe is nearby

Madeline smiled lightly and said, “Thank you kindly for the offer, but I have some matters to attend to, so I’m afraid I can’t join you for coffee today.”

Willow was slightly taken aback by her answer. Then, after a pause, she said, “Alright, if that’s the case.

Seeing the hint of disappointment on her face, Madeline explained, “Wesley is likely in this area, and I have to meet him.”

When Willow heard that, she thought, Wesley Her fourth brother?”

Her eldest brother Caleb, second brother Nolan, and third brother Cavin were all extraordinary in their own ways. As for this fourth brother of hers, there was no need to even mention him.

Willow straightened her face and said, “Alright then, I won’t keep you from your important matters. If there’s another opportunity, I’ll invite you for coffee again.”

Madeline nodded, got into her car, and after sending Gloria away, she drove towards a remote mountain retreat on the outskirts.

The mountain retreat was a luxury estate, popular among the wealthy and influential for their vacations. Madeline drove all the way to a house nestled deep within the property. After comparing it with a photo, she confirmed it was the right place. She touched her chin and quietly complained, “And I still had to ask Nolan for this address.”

She couldn’t understand why Wesley had been in Acocester for several days without reaching out to her. If he truly wasn’t paying attention to her, how could he have quietly dealt with Jasmine? It was truly puzzling.

Madeline pressed the doorbell at the entrance. The door slowly opened, but there was no one inside. Confused, Madeline walked into the yard. Everything was quiet, and she hesitated as she looked at the house. As she got closer, she finally noticed someone sitting by the fish pond on the side of the house.

The person was sitting with their back to her, dressed in loose black clothing, making their figure appear tall and slender,
