Chapter 112
Gavin narrowed his eyes dangerously. “A misunderstanding?”
With the glare from Cavin, both Heidi and Bryan felt a chill on their backs
Bryan felt somewhat restless and could not figure out why the situation had reversed.
He wanted to speak up but was forced to swallow the quibble back when he saw Gavin and Madeline’s indifferent gazes.
He was aware that all his classmates who had just flattered him were still present.
If Bryan chose to fawn over Gavin submissively without figuring the situation out yet, he would lose his dignity.
Heidi hurriedly said, “The Labiche family definitely didn’t mean that. There must be a misunderstanding!”
In such a short time, the Labiche family’s confidence shattered before Gavin could say anything.
was stirred up.
Everyone was shocked upon seeing the scene, feeling like a storm was
Gavin beckoned with his finger, and Charlotte came over in a cold sweat.
“Explain,” said Gavin.
Charlotte gritted her teeth and glanced at Madeline guiltily, then looked at Heidi and Bryan fearfully.
She could not afford to offend either side.
Charlotte steeled herself and replied, “Mr. Labiche deliberately told me to bring Madeline over here today, no matter what”
She said again, “In order to humiliate Harley, he disrespected Madeline and said that he would keep her as a lover with money…
She paused suddenly for fear that Gavin would vent her anger at her. “Anyway, Mr. Labiche was deliberately picking on Madeline!”
Gavin nodded with satisfaction. “Maddie, look. You’ve made terrible friends again. If I hadn’t been paying attention to you, you would have been
tricked.
He caressed Madeline’s head. “As a token of gratitude, you have to make compensation for me well since I had worried about you this much.”
Madeline felt she could solve the matter herself, even if Gavin did not come today.
However, she would just let it be since he was here.
Looking at Gavin’s serious expression, Madeline pursed her lips and smiled helplessly. “Okay, I will accompany you more. Well then, how should
we solve the matter now?
*I’m just a little girl, so I don’t know what to do,” she added.
Bryan was about to scold her for pretending to be weak at this moment, as the woman did not show the slightest hint of vulnerability just now.
Madeline was as strong as a tiger when she twisted Bryan’s wrist.
Gavin gave Charlotte a meaningful look and said, “Take Madeline to another private room for a meal.”
Then, he swept his gaze around at the others. Those who have nothing to do with this matter can leave now”
A smile formed on the corner of his lips. “For those who’re involved, don’t leave. Otherwise, I can catch up with you even if you leave. By then. things won’t be that simple anymore.”
Many people felt relieved that they
ey did not speak out of turn.
Judging by Clavin’s attitude, it seemed like Madeline must have a strong backer.
At least, the backer was not someone the Labiche family could compare themselves with
Otherwise, Madeline would have taken the Labiche family seriously.
Bryan turned more worried. “Mom, who in the world are they?”
“They’re from the capital. Heidi was unable to explain clearly, feeling an uneasiness in her heart. Heidi then said in a hurry, “Call your father Haley was chased away by the staĒ,

The nan lowered his head and wiped the blood from the corner of his lips without looking back. He then got ready to go home in a messy state.
He now clearly realized Madeline’s identity and his own position.
However, even though he once bullied Madeline using his power back then, the latter did not rub salt into his wound right now.
Harky fch like there was something stuck in his throat, feeling uncomfortable and sad.
Someone chased after him, which turned out to be his classmate. “Harley, why are you walking so fast! Wait for me!”
Harley frowned and thought. “Is he still trying to mock me further?”
Unexpectedly, the classmate smiled kindly at him.
He said, “Harley, don’t take it to heart. We are all just ordinary people, so we didn’t dare to go against Bryan just now. You won’t blame us for that, right”
Harley pursed his lips and did not respond.
The classmate continued, “I thought your family had gone bankrupt. You’d have a hard time after losing your job, too. The Larson family has such great power now, and that’s really as expected of you, Harley. I know you’re still the best in our class”
“I’ll treat you to a meal. Let’s have a drink together! Ell also apologize to you as well,” the classmate suggested.
A trace of disgust flashed in Harley’s eyes, and he knew that the classmate was flattering him again because of Madeline.
He averted his gaze away. “Stop putting on an act before me. I have seen through all your true colors. Don’t you treat me as a fool!
Harley turned around and left coldly.
He then heard an infuriated curse behind him. “If it weren’t for your sister, who would be willing to pay attention to you? You really think of yourself highlyt Baht”
Madeline followed Charlotte out of the private room and
d walked upstairs.
Charlotte walked ahead, feeling cold sweat drenching her back after sensing the person behind her. Her heart was beating crazily, but her mind was a complete mess.
She stopped in her tracks and turned around, showing a smile with a pale face. “Madeline. I’m very sorry 1 thought Bryan forced you here because he wanted to pursue you.”
“After all, you are young, beautiful, and charming now. It’s normal for those rich boys to like you,” she
you,” she added.
Madeline looked at Charlotte with a half–smile, waiting for her to continue quibbling
Charlotte only felt she was making a fool of herself in front of Madeline like a clown Charlotte doubted there was anything Madeline would not know after noticing her pair of clear eyes without confusion
At this moment, Charlotte really regretted that she looked down upon Madeline.
She thought Madeline was just a country bumpkin and did not expect her to be playing dumb.
She could not believe Madeline was someone related to Glorious Group.
If Charlotte’s father knew that Charlotte had ganged up on Madeline in class and offended her today, he would probably break her leg
She pleaded, Tm begging you. Please don’t hold a grudge against me this time. I didn’t mean to do that I really thought Bryan was just pursuing you. Who would know that he was scum with ill intentions?
Madeline waved her hand and did not want to hear Charlotte talk anymore,
She said, “I actually prefer your prideful unitude before, so what’s the point of being so humble in front of me? I can find a private room by myself. You can leave and get busy with your business.
Alter saying that, Madeline walked upstairs.
Charlone stood still as if her legs were filled with lead. Charlotte thought Madeline was being sarcastic with her words.
She really did not mean to do all that at all.
If Charlotte knew that Madeline had such a powerful background, she would not even have the slightest thought of offending her Samuel came over and asked Charlotte, Ms. Wallis, what should we do now! There seems to be something off in the private room

Charlotte clenched her fists with her face full of annoyance. “Don’t you dare call the police! Do yo

She continued to yell, “That man comes to us when you’re this stupid!”
comes from the capital. No o matter how big Acocester is, it can’t compare with the capital! Don’t you pass the buck
A flame of anger ignited in Charlotte’s heart, and she felt annoyed that she had stood on the wrong side.
Charlotte then said angrily, “Aren’t Madeline, Mr. and Mrs. Lewis eating here? Waive their bills. Be careful when you serve them. Don’t make any mistakes again!”
Samuel thought. “Wasn’t that your own mistake? Why did you have to scold me for that!”
Yet, he still did as she said, obediently.
