Chapter 156
Jasper was somewhat puzzled. “How did you come up with asking me where Madeline is?”
“I just asked. It seems that you’re the only one in the crew Madeline’s familiar with, and her assistant isn’t here either. Lucas was a little awkward and said. “If you’re not familiar with her, just pretend I didn’t ask.”
“Wait—are you the new artist that signed on with Heather Lea from Splendid Media?” asked Jasper.
“You know that?” Lucas was confused. He used to be a singer but was later busy playing video games. After his family had gone bankrupt, he had to work since he didn’t want to rely on his family. When he approached the film crew, he found out that Madeline was also there, and he was quite surprised.
“Heather said she signed on a good talent. Jasper looked at Lucas. He had good looks, but Jasper didn’t know about his acting skills. Besides, modest success depended on suppon, but huge success depended on luck.
Lucas had wanted to meet Madeline on the set, but he only saw her in the afternoon.
Madeline came with Yohannes, and they went their separate ways once they arrived. Madeline turned around and saw Lucas running g toward her. “Maddie, I have something to tell you,” he said.
Madeline stepped back and said, “Just say it.”
“I don’t mean to annoy you, but it’s really important!” Lucas hurriedly explained.
Not far away, Yohannes said to Jasper, “Ask Madeline to act with me”
Baffled, Jasper replied, “You just can’t stand seeing her talk to someone else, can you?”
Yohannes glanced at Lucas. His heart ached when he thought about how the Larson family had hurt Madeline. “Replace him. I don’t want him around Madeline.” Jasper was confused. I don’t like anyone surnamed “Larson,” explained Yohannes.
“Madeline’s last name is also Larson, Jasper quipped.
Yohannes snorted. “She’s different”
Madeline wasn’t interested in dealing with Lucas. She turned and headed for the dressing room, while Lucas followed her. He said, “Maddie, just give me three minutes. I know you hate me, and I haven’t bothered you recently”
Madeline stopped and turned to look at him. It better be good. I don’t like listening to nonsense, and I don’t want to waste time on your family.”
Lucas frowned. His throat felt like he had swallowed a better pill. “Winslet had plastic surgery to look just like you.” Lucas sighed. “If I had known. she’d do this, I would’ve stopped her. But she disappeared for a while, and after she returned”
His voice trailed off before he continued, “Aunt Sharon is also about to leave the hospital Once she’s discharged, she’ll take it out on you. Be careful. Maddie. And… your brothers can tell you apart from Winslet, right? You’d better tell them so they don’t mistake someone else for you and get taken advantage of”
“Thank you.” Madeline was a little surprised. She had mixed feelings and said perfunctorily. “But my brothers won’t make that mistake. Still, thanks for telling me
Lucas had a flattering smile. “Madeline, the weather’s cold. You’ve never had the best health, so take care of yourself. Before Madeline could lose her patience. Lucas waved his hand and said, “TI go first, I won’t bother you anymore.” He turned around and left happily.
At least, this time, Madeline didn’t tell him to get out. Lucas cheered himself up, thinking that he would pay her back what he owed her. He hoped to cam Madeline’s forgiveness.
Madeline sat down in the dressing room. “Winslet’s sick. She got plastic surgery to look like me. What’s sh investigate and planned to check things out herself sometime
What’s she plotting Madeline called someone to
message to the WhatsA
How similar could Winslet be to her after going under the knife? As she recalled what Lucas had told her, she also sent a message to group.
Madeline typed My foster sister had plastic surgery to look like me. If you guys get the wrong person. I’ll Hebel]
Then, she focused on her work. She didn’t know that it made Caleb and the others furious. They were all thinking. Which bastand thinks they can lay a land on Madeline? What are we, chopped liver?
Molan was reading and resting at home. When he heard the notification from his phone, he checked the message. This calm and somewhat sickly.

face suddenly ran cold. He clenched the phone, and his eyes narrowed dangerously. “Interesting.”
At the Larson residence, Winslet had a good appetite. The wounds on her face hadn’t fully healed yet, so there were bandages on her cheeks. In front of her was a table full of delicious food. “Mom, I didn’t have anything delicious to eat abroad. It was so depressing,” she said.
“why did you do this!”
Layla looked at her daughter with some concern. “Why
Thomas also frowned. “Didn’t you look good before! You didn’t even discuss the plastic surgery with us–you just went ahead and did it!”
Jacob looked at Winslet, distressed. “Winnie, does it hurt?”
Winslet shook her head and said, “I don’t mind. Jacob. This is nothing compared to you being forced to marry a bad woman. She teared up. pretending to be aggrieved. “Mom, Dad, I didn’t tell you because I was afraid you wouldn’t agree.”
She bit her lips and started to get choked up with sobs as she told them about the plastic surgery and substitute marriage. The plastic surgery was Aunt Sharon’s idea. I agreed to it so she wouldn’t do anything to us. She was going to take it out on our family when she got injured.”
“What?” Layla was shocked. “S–Sharon asked you to get plastic surgery and marry Nick?”
Thomas was stunned. Then, he was overjoyed, but it didn’t show on his face. “Winslet, you’re really going to marry into the Horton family! One of the Top Ten Families in Japrium?”
Winslet smiled and said, “Yes, Dad. Once my marriage is settled, our family can turn things around.”
Layla felt heartbroken for her daughter, but she also hesitated when she thought about the family’s turnabout. People were selfish, after all.
“It’s just… Mom, Dad, it would be terrible if Madeline exposed me,” Madeline said pitifully.
Thomas waved his hand calmly. “No, we only have one daughter in our family. You’ve always been the only one. Nick has a crush on our daughter, and that’s you. As for Madeline. She’s just a poor student that we sponsored because we felt sorry for her
Winslet nodded in satisfaction. It was enough for her parents to say that. She didn’t want anyone to hold it against her when she married Nick. Layla poured a bowl of soup for V
Winslet concerned. ‘Dear, you should eat something light to recover and avoid getting scars.” Thomas also said eagerly. “Yeah, I’ll call a doctor over and monitor your recovery to avoid
any
ny problems.”
Jacob frowned and thought. If I weren’t such a loser, Winnie wouldn’t have had to suffer like this. Then, he said, “Winnie, I’ll make it up to you when our family gets through this ”
Winslet smiled faintly. “This is what I should do, Jacob. Don’t feel burdened. There was suppressed contempt in her eyes. Truthfully, she didn’t care about that minor pain.
When she was abroad, Sharon had given her all the information about Nick. The Horton family’s scion was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He was knowledgeable, humble, and polite.
If she could become Mrs. Horton, she wouldn’t have to stay with the incompetent Larson family. She couldn’t stand the poor and useless family!
