The Remorseful Brothers

Chapter 183

Vanessa was stunned. Her breathing was short, and her chest heaved violently. “You…”.

Vanessa looked at Caleb but didn’t dare say a word. Just meeting his gaze filled her with fear. It was only now that she realized how terrifying Caleb truly was. She had once dreamed of marrying him, but now, regret washed over her. Gritting her teeth, she cast a resentful glance at Madeline.

Madeline remained calm, shielded by Caleb’s presence, Vanessa couldn’t help but think, ‘No wonder a woman like her dared to hit me. She has someone powerful backing her.

“Vanessa, what are you doing? Hurry up and apologize to Madeline!” Conner urged with a darkened expression. If Caleb really decided to punish Vanessa, the latter would suffer greatly today.

Vanessa reluctantly lowered her head and said, “I’m sorry, Madeline. It’s all my fault. I didn’t mean to bully you. I just let my emotions get the best of me. I was speaking nonsense in anger earlier. Please, don’t hold it against me… I’m sorry. Please forgive me!

However, Madeline remained unfazed as the bodyguard continued to move toward Vanessa. All eyes in the crowd were now on Vanessa, not in admiration of her beauty, but in anticipation of seeing her get beaten up.

The bodyguard flexed his wrist, knowing that if he held back today, his master wouldn’t be lenient with him. Everyone was well aware of how much Caleb cherished Madeline. With a fierce look, the bodyguard set his sights on Vanessa, determined to make a strong impression in front of Madeline.

“Don’t come any closer!” Vanessa cried out, stepping back in panic. “Mom, Dad, you can’t leave me like this. I don’t want to get beaten! Dad, Mom, do something! I’m Ms. Larson! Call our bodyguards to protect me!”

Vanessa couldn’t understand why her parents were just sitting by, doing nothing. The Larson family was one of Top Ten Families, and while Caleb was rumored to be powerful, she didn’t fully grasp the extent of his influence. She didn’t understand why her parents would allow Caleb to trample on the Larson family’s dignity without even trying to stop him.

Thomas looked away. He looked like a mess, a sharp contrast to Madeline, who was protected and cherished by the powerful Caleb. Thomas felt small and insignificant. Lowering his head in shame, he couldn’t help but feel inferior.

Tiana, growing anxious, quickly stepped in front of Vanessa “Madeline, please forgive Vanessa this time. She didn’t mean it. She’s just a bit blunt. We’re family, after all. We’ll be seeing each other again in the future. Are you sure you want to burn all the bridges? Please ask Mr. Simmons to stop
