Henry murmured, “Henry, don’t blame it on Madeline.
“Find out who is really the bully.”
Winslet burst into tears.
The faces of the five boys suddenly darkened.
Madeline walked downstairs, wearing the outfit that Winslet just gave her.
This outfit marked the start of the family’s hate toward her.
Madeline looked pitiful and innocent. She looked at Winslet who was crying and ventured, “Winslet, what’s going on? Why are you crying?”
“It’s nothing. If you really like it, I can give you everything. Anyway, I’m… I’m very lucky to be here. So, from now on, I will return everything back
to you
Madeline was surprised and frowned a little.
Joel said, “Stop it, okay! The clothes that you’re wearing are gifts from Dad to Winslet. Be smart!”
Henry, being just a soul, couldn’t do anything but wish things could change.
Feeling hopeless, he moved to Madeline, wanting to protect her.
But he could only watch helplessly as Joel pushed Madeline down to the ground.
Tears streamed down Henry’s face. He felt cold and touched his cheeks only to find that his face was covered in tears.
He didn’t understand why he could cry when he was just a soul that was unable
to change anything that was happening.
Harley said thoughtfully, “Even though Winslet has taken your place in this family, she has indeed brought us joy. You’re two unique individuals, You cannot replace each other.
Though you’re back, Winslet is still our sister and will still live with us as Ms. Larson.
“Do you understand? You don’t have the right to take her things.”
Madeline was lying on the ground. Her hand ached. She looked up and said, “I didn’t try to take her things. She gave this to me.”
Jacob scolded. “Stop lying!”
Lucas frowned with displeasure, “Seriously, how could you do this? Didn’t you learn any manners in the countryside! Didn’t your grandpa and grandma teach you not to lie! We can give you anything you want but first, you need to be a kind person.
Henry sighed. “Never mind. It’s just an outfit Winslet, stop crying. I’ll buy you a new one.
As he spoke, he tossed the gift that he bought for Madeline into the trash can.
Henry’s soul watched everything g from in the sky. He moved to the trash can and tears blurred his eyes.
At night, Henry’s spirit followed behind Madeline. He was by her side every moment. He watched her cry under the blanket.
He sat on the edge of the bed. “Madeline, don’t be sad. Everyone will eventually get what they deserve.
“It won’t be long before your brothers from the orphanage come to protect you, Madeline. Just hang in there. It’ll be over soon.”
Henry gently stroked her head repeatedly. “I’m sorry, Madeline. It must hurt a lot, right? You must be very sad
“It’s my fault. I was an idiot. I hurt you?
Madeline had fallen asleep.
Henry stayed by her bed, looking extremely sorrowful and regretful “Madeline, you’re going to be alright, aren’t you?
“My little sister is as tough as wild grasses. One day, you’ll become stronger and happier.
you leave us, you’ll find peace.
“We’re the source of your sorrow!
At the hospital, the lights in the operating room were finally turned off
Thomas rushed to the door of the operating room, his lips trembling, unable to say anything.
Lucas said. “Doctor, is my brother going to be alright?”
He didn’t even dare to peek inside the room, afraid of hearing things that he didn’t want to hear and seeing things that he didn’t want to see.
“It’s alright but whether he will wake up depends on his luck.” Benson said hesitantly, taking off his mask. “Well, you better be prepared.
“There’s nothing we can do. Somehow, he suddenly cried. And his heartbeat stabilized. His will to live is strong.
“However, there’s a chance that he might turn into a vegetable.
Benson continued, “You should try talking to him after a few days. There’s definitely something that he’s holding on to.”
Lucas said. “Alright”
Soon, the bed on which Henry was lying was pushed out.
It was already midnight.
Thomas and the others walked to the ICU. He looked at his son through the glass window.
Even though Thomas was a tough man, he couldn’t help but cry, “Who did this to him! So cruel!
“It’s really too much”
more than enough to p
Harley went to pay the fees only to find that someone had already deposited 100 thousand dollars into the account. It was more the medical bills that the insurance company didn’t cover.
Harley returned and saw his father crying with his hands covering his face in the hallway.
Feeling sympathetic for Thomas, Harley said. “Dad, he’s out of danger. You should go home and rest. I’ll stay here.”
Lucas hurriedly said, “I’ll stay here with you, Harley.”
Thomas sighed, putting his hand on his chest with a tearful face, “Going back home won’t help anyway. I can’t fall asleep. I’m so worried and it’s so painful
He wiped his tears with his sleeve and said, “You guys

should go back and sleep. I’ll stay here and take care of everything. Your Mom hasn’t woken up yet so I’ll keep an eye on her too.”
Jacobs frowned, “We should uke turns. We must pull ourselves together. Dad and Caleb will stay here tonight. I’ll come over with Joel at 8 AM
Tomorrow,”
“What about me!” Lucas complained. “I want to stay here too. Henry is always so nice to us. I must do something.”
“You have another task.” Jacob gently patted Lucas’s shoulder. “You’re the only one who can communicate with Madeline. Last night, Henry went to find her.
“You need to call the police and get Madeline to cooperate with them to find out some clues.
“We can’t let the criminal get aw
away with this
They didn’t think Madeline had anything to do with Henry’s injuries. After all, Madeline wouldn’t do this kind of thing. If she really wanted to do this, all of them would have been dead long ago,
Lucas nodded, “Okay, got it
He clenched his fists, gritting his teeth. “I won’t let whoever did this to Henry get

Lucas thought about li for a moment and then went straigly
to the police station.
Madeline was still in her room, unable to fall asleep.
She
opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling, hearing the sound of a car engine outside.
She sat up and felt something indescribable.
Someone was knocking on the door.
