Chapter 43
The
dinner served in the mountain retreat was cooked with natural food.
Layla had a big appetite. She did not know whether she was in a good mood or because the food was delicious.
She thought it should be both.
Layla thought she could soon send Madeline the jinx away and meet the CEO of Glorious Group through Benjamin.
She thought it was double happiness.
Winslet also went to the school she liked.
Layla thought the Larson family was really lucky this year.
“Let’s go to church in a few days. I will make a prayer.”
Thomas agreed. “Up to you. We don’t have to worry about anything until next week.”
Layla smiled.
Before school started, she had to bring Winslet to buy more beautiful clothes.
She had to get everything done.
It was inevitable for mothers to worry about everything.
Harley picked up the dishes for Winslet and said, “Winnie, didn’t you say that you had a bad sleep some time ago? Eat more vegetables. You’ve become a lot haggard these days”
“Harley, that’s not what you said. You’ve been worrying about me all the time. I don’t even have much thought on it.”
When they were having dinner at the table, a girl suddenly shouted, “Winslet! Didn’t you go to the vocational school? Hasn’t school started yet?”
Winslet looked up and found that it was Cecilia Lindt, her classmate, who was the student leader at that time.
She did not get along well with Cecilia.
Cecilia publicized the fact that Winslet did not go to college, which made Winslet become a laughingstock.
was also because of this, Winslet had been crying at home all day, which made her parents feel sorry for her, and came up with a way for her to replace Madeline.
“Haha, are you mistaken? Cecilia, where did you hear the news? Have you seen my academic transcript? Pm going to Acocester University.
Cecilia rolled her eyes and said, “Come on. Your high school grades have never been better in three years. Can you go to Acocester University? But isn’t Madeline ranked first in our school? How could she have dinner with you? Madeline, what do you think you are doing?”
Layla frowned and said, “Maddie and Winnie are both my daughters. Of course, they will have dinner together.”
Cecilia was a little surprised. “No way! No one in the 12th Grade knows that the campus belle and the top student are sisters. Madeline, is this true? By the way, you must have gotten into a good school since your grades are so good, right?”
Holding the fork, Madeline said, “I failed”

Chapter 43
Layla was afraid that Madeline would say something more and make Winslet to be criticized from the back.
“Maddie didn’t fill in the application form properly. She has grandiose aims but puny abilities. She failed the examination and has to wait for another examination next year!
There was a suspicious look in Cecilia’s eyes.
She thought, “Even Winslet could get hato Acocester University. Madeline can’t fail the examination.”
Cecilia muttered a few more words with her family. She looked Winslet with contempt and stopped talking.
Winslet’s good mood was messed up.
Henry was a little surprised. “Winnie, didn’t you get high grades every time? Why did she say that your high school grades. were not good for three years?”
Winslet felt very guilty.
She whispered, “This person is our student leader and the first in our class. She always envies my family background, so she often slanders me behind my back.”
Hearing this, Layla said, “Why is there such a person? She must be crazy because she’s poor. How could she be so jealous of others?”
Madeline was like an outsider, looking at Winslet lying.
During the three years of high school, Winslet was the campus belle. She had many admirers and countless relationships.
It was easy to know her grade by asking the teachers in the school
However, the Larson family never suspected that Winslet would tamper with the results.
Madeline once mentioned it, but Thomas slapped her in the face.
After dinner, Cecilia came over and asked, “Madeline, did you really fail the examination?”
Winslet gave Madeline a look
They had signed the contract. Madeline could not talk nonsense behind their back.
Layla also hurriedly coughed and motioned for Madeline to speak.
“Yes, I’ve failed the examination.” Madeline looked at Cecilia and said, “You don’t need to be surprised. The result is inevitable:
Cecilia only felt that Madeline’s words were a little strange. “How is it possible? You have always been the first since you transferred to our school! Even if you don’t fill in the application form properly, you won’t fail for going to any school with your grades,”
The more Madeline talked, the more trouble she caused.
Winslet’s expression was very ugly.
She was afraid that Madeline would reveal the secret.
After studying for four years, many people would forget Winslets previous grades.
If the people knew she replaced Madeline to go to school, she would always be laughed at

“Okay, let’s go. We still have to go rafting. There is no time for us to talk to outsiders here.” Layla grabbed Madeline’s arm and dragged her away without hesitation.
“Maddie, come on. Don’t say everything to outsiders. Don’t forget how I told you when we were at home.”
The whole family went far away.
Thomas‘ face darkened.
He felt that this kind of thing was not decent,
He was an excellent entrepreneur but he had to do such a shameful thing secretly.
Thomas thought it was really unpresentablet
“Winnie, if you get a better grade on the examination, will you be ridiculed here today?”
Winslet felt wronged. “Dad, I used to have good grades. The last time was because Maddie affected my mood…
Thomas had heard a lot of this so he was indifferent. “Well, it’s in the past. Anyway, Madeline can’t go to school because of you!”
Winslet lowered her head and felt more resentful toward Madeline.
She thought, “Dad also spoke for Madeline!”
Joel comforted Winslet, “Winnie, don’t be sad Dad is just angry and being frank. You must have a bright future if you study hard in the future.”
Jacob smiled and said, “It’s hard to not have a bright future with five elder brothers taking care of you.”
Madeline could not help mocking herself.
It was not that this family would not love others, but it was her who they did not love.
They gave Madeline all the blame and bad things and gave all the gentle and good sides to Winslet.
“All right, let’s go rafting now. But I heard that the inflatable boat next to the reservoir is more interesting. The lake is full of mud and looks dirty.” Winslet pretended to dislike it. I don’t want to go rafting.”
Layla was helpless. “You’re such a playful girl. Fine, you can do whatever you want. You have just been wronged and we want to make you happy.”
With Winslet’s words, Benjamin hurried to do it.
Harley followed Benjamin
“I’ll go with you. We must be careful when playing an inflatable boat on this reservoir.”
Benjamin was indifferent. “Don’t worry. It is also an entertainment facility. Usually there are some small fish over there and children can sit on an inflatable boat fishing The safety measure is quite high, so it won’t be a problem.”
is more cautious. “Okay. Fil listen to you. Winnie said that you were the most
Harley had always thought too much and was careful person, so don’t worry about it.”
Winslet walked over and poked Harley. “Harley, what are you talking about? You talked as if I often compliment Benjamin secretly. I’m a girl. Am I not shy?”
Harley touched Winslet’s head and said, “Yes. You will always be a child in front of the Larson brothers”

Chapter 43
Madeline’s heart began to feel sad.
It was clear that she had already cut ties with them.
Why was there still some pain in her heart when she saw their happiness at this moment?
Madeline raised her hand and covered her chest. “I’m really hopeless. I don’t need such love… What’s the envy?”
Seeing them had become more distant from each other, Madeline raised her hand and found that her eyes were wet.
She finally understood.
Madeline did not envy Winslet for being loved.
Instead, she felt sorry for herself for always being the stepping stone for others. She was bound by family affection, tormented, and had completely lost herself.
Madeline felt sorry for herself.
