Chapter 187

Maddie knew that her mother was bringing her sister to the Smith family’s banquet.

She rushed back overnight.

Mr. Green and Cathy were already asleep, but she woke them up again.

Children were all debts!

Cathy sighed and put on her clothes to open the door.

Maddie came in and sat on the sofa. When she opened her mouth, she asked, “Mom, how could you

bring my sister to the Smith family?”

Cathy rubbed her eyes and said with a sleepy expression, “She begged me for a few days and looked

extremely pitiful. I really couldn’t bear to see her like this.”

“Do you think she can do whatever she wants just because she’s pitiful? She’s done so many wrong

things. Just indulge her!” Maddie’s face turned cold. Her expression was horrible. “The Smith family is

inviting guests this time. It’s obvious that they want to announce to the world that they will no longer live

in seclusion. At that time, who knows how many big shots will come?”

At this point, Maddie looked serious and her voice became low. “I received news that the Smith family

has sent invitations to the top families in Capital City. There’s even news that Mr. Book is very likely to

arrive this time.”

“What did you say? Mr. Book will be there!” Mr. Green had been lying quietly on the bed. When he

heard about Mr. Book, his expression changed instantly, and his eyes were filled with shock.

Although Mr. Book’s name and image appeared on the news broadcast every day, it felt like he was

running around the world. He always met all kinds of people and shook hands with them warmly.

He seemed to be very close to everyone.

However, this was just an illusion. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens for ordinary people to

see Mr. Book.

Not to mention Mr. Book, even the students of the university could not see the principal once in four

years.

“Is the news accurate?” Mr. Green asked.

Maddie shook her head. “Dad, how would I know Mr. Book’s whereabouts? I just heard the news. Ryan

was cured by Isaac, right? So someone guessed that Mr. Book would be there this time.”

“I see.” Mr. Green nodded and closed his eyes to think.

If Mr. Book arrived, then the significance of this banquet would be extraordinary. They had to be

extremely careful.

“Amelia can’t go!” Mr. Green suddenly opened his eyes, which were shining brightly.

Hearing this, Cathy was speechless for a moment. Anxiety appeared on her face. “What about Amelia?

It’s fine if I didn’t let her go at the

beginning, but now I’m going back on my word. She won’t be able to take

it!”

Amelia’s mental state had never been very good. Now, she looked like a normal person. However,

Cathy learned from the servant who served Amelia that Amelia had not been resting well recently and

had insomnia all night.

“Forget it. Let her go. At most, I’ll keep an eye on her,” Maddie suddenly said.

Although she spoke ruthlessly, she was actually the most soft–hearted.

“Alas.” Cathy walked over and hugged Maddie. Her heart ached. “It’s been hard on you.”

The Smith family’s banquet was a good opportunity to make

connections, but Maddie had to keep an eye on Amelia the entire time, so she would miss this

opportunity.

Maddie seemed to have sensed something. She suddenly looked up at her mother and probed. “Then

don’t let Amelia go.”

Cathy’s body stiffened.

Maddie immediately smiled brightly. “I’m just joking. Don’t worry. I’ll keep an eye on my sister.”

Anyway, this was not the first time something like this had happened. She was already used to it.

When she went downstairs, she met Ronald.

He sat on the sofa calmly with his arms crossed, as if he was deliberately waiting for her.

Maddie raised her eyebrows and said, “It’s so late. Why aren’t you

sleeping?”

Ronald looked up at Maddie and frowned. He said unhappily. “Why did you come back?”

“Why can’t I come back? This is my home.” Maddie leaned against the sofa and massaged her temples

with a tired expression.

“Humph.” Ronald sneered. “You’re here to denounce me, right? Please be clear–headed and

distinguish between family and outsiders. Don’t hurt Amelia’s heart for the sake of benefits and

outsiders.”

Benefits?

Outsiders!

The anger that had been accumulating in Maddie’s heart for a long time was completely ignited by his

words.

“Ronald, you’re fucking heartless. I’ve put in so much effort. Who the fuck am I doing this for?” Maddie

suddenly stood up and threw the pillow at him.

Ronald sneered. “You know very well who you’re doing this for. Don’t tell me you’re dominating the

Green family’s business for me!”

After saying that, he threw the pillow and slammed it on the ground before turning around to leave.

Seeing this scene, the servants in the hall were so frightened that they did not even dare to breathe

loudly. They all shrunk their necks, wishing they could turn invisible.

Ronald returned to his room on the third floor. His wife was applying skincare products on her face. She

looked up at him and asked, “Did you quarrel with Maddie?”

Ronald did not reply. Instead, he fell onto the bed with a gloomy expression.

His wife pursed her lips. “I think you’re just bored. Isn’t it good for Maddie to manage the company?

She’s not married and has no children. In the future, this huge/Green family will belong to Leo and

Lisa.” “You know nothing about it.” Ronald turned around and ignored his wife.

He did not want to be a good–for–nothing who only spent money and did not work.

When he was young, he did not think much of it. He even felt that such a life was not bad. He was very

free and unrestrained. He could do

anything.

However, as he grew older, his inner needs changed. He became especially expectant of others‘

respect and power.

He didn’t want to be someone’s son, younger brother, or older brother. Could it be that he didn’t have

his own name? Why could he only be someone else’s subordinate?

Those old foxes in the company were just flattering him on the surface and calling him Mr. Ronald. In

reality, they looked down on him. There were also friends of the same age who played together when

they were young. Now, they were all CEOs and managers. They were not on the same level as him

and could not play together.

Downstairs, Maddie sat alone on the sofa for a long time before standing up and walking out.

The butler hurried over. “Ms. Maddie, it’s already so late. Where are you going? Stay for the night.”

Maddie rubbed her forehead and looked tired. “No.”

The Taylor family.

Amelia was on a video call with Emma.

Although Amelia had spent a lot of money to renovate the sanatorium in the small county, it was still not

very comfortable.

Furthermore, Emma could not go out and could only stay in such a

narrow area.

Compared to the past when she was at ease in the upper–class society, where she was the center of

attention, there was a world of difference.

Emma’s former companions and friends had all cut off contact with her.

Even Lola, the daughter of a nouveau riche who had always flattered and followed her, had stopped

contacting her.

Lola did not add insult to injury. After all, Emma’s backer, the Taylor family, was still there.

But Lola’s attitude was indeed much colder.

Emma could not stand the huge change. She could not sleep all day and night and cried and begged

Amelia.

Seeing her beloved daughter like this, Amelia’s heart was about to break.

How she wished she could replace Emma and suffer for Emma!

She had already thought it through. As long as she could get Emma to come back, she would agree to

any harsh conditions Olivia put forward. She would even give up Emma and only love Olivia.

She was willing to do that.

True love was not a relationship on the surface, but one that was hidden. deep inside.

For the sake of Emma, she was willing to suffer. She was willing to suffer and submit to Olivia. She

pretended to dote on Olivia and promised that Olivia was her only daughter.
