Chapter 90
Madison was stunned outside the door. The smile on her face stiffened.
When she realized that Samuel did not intend to see her, she suddenly felt a little helpless.
She hesitated in front of the door. She didn’t know what to say or if she should just leave and wait for
him to be less angry beforeing over.
After hesitating for a while, she looked at the closed door and got rid of her aggrieved and delicate
demeanor and instead reced it with sincerity. “Samuel, I’m sorry. I know you’re angry with me. I

guys a message to exin. Can you not be angry?”
Samuel still did not reply to her.

Madison pursed his lips and stood at the door for a while. In the end, she turned around.
She did not return to her room and seal herself in like Samucl.
She went downstairs and sat on the couch. She hugged a pillow and began to reflect.
She had never felt so defeated before.
Ever since she returned to the Daves family, her brothers had been very good to her. She had truly
experienced feelings that she had never experienced before.
It was also because of their unreserved love that she could wheedle to them without any scruples.
It seemed that no matter what she did, they could be satisfied. No matter what she did. wrong, they
could forgive her.
It was only now that Madison came to a realization.
She could not do whatever she wanted just because they doted on her.
On the second floor of the vi, Antoine and Joe stood side by side at the railing and watched their little
princess sit on the couch with a frown.
Looking at her for a while, Antoine’s eyes were filled with reluctance. “Are you really not going to talk to
Samuel? I wonder if Jessica will think too much if he ignores her. After all, she was just brought
home…”

“What do you mean just? It’s been two years, Joe interrupted Antoine and nced down the stairs.
“Don’t spoil her all the time. If we don’t teach her a lesson now, she probably dares to leave home for
half a month next time. She didn’t even say anything before she went out to drink. She should be
ignored by Samuel.”
“So all of you are the good brothers and I’m the bad brother? Are you going to continue spoiling her
after she coaxes you a little?” This sentence suddenly came from behind them.
Antoine and Joe turned around and realized that Samuel was standing behind them.
However, thetter did not say much. His cold eyes only nced downstairs and he pursed his lips
slightly.
Antoine did not spend as much time with Madison as Joe did with her. He could not bear to see his
sister being unhappy all the time, so he decided to be the peacemaker. “Samuel, go and talk to
Jessica. She knows that she’s in the wrong. She apologized to us when she woke up first thing in the

morning. There’s no need to ignore her. Besides, she’s not a child. It’s not good to keep restraining
her.”
That made sense. If she was an ordinary girl who was already an adult, it would not be a big deal for
her to go out and drink with her friends.
However, Madison was different. If Joe had not found her familiar and been friendly with her for a few
more days, he might not have realized that she was missing at all. She had been left to freeze outside
for a night in the cold. It would be even more impossible for the Daves family to acknowledge her.
Although it was rtively less dangerous in the country now, no one could guarantee. her safety.
Morcover, the person drinking with her was the famous yboy Cullen, and the person who took her
away was Leo!
Therefore, Joe did not agree with Antoine.
Samuel didn’t agree either.
He retracted his gaze and said slowly. “I found something. Come with me.”
With that, he turned around
Antoine frowned. “Then, about Jessica…”
“Don’t worry arm around Antoine’s shoulder and followed Samuel.
about her. It’s just two kids arguing. She’ll be fine in a while.” Joe put!
his
Samuel was displeased. “Joe, I’m not a child.”

“Yes, yes. You’re not,” Joe coaxed him.
Samuel could feel his perfunctory attitude even without turning around.
However, he did not retort.
Before Madison came back, he and Ethan were the youngest. They were ten years apart
from his eldest brother, John, and eight years apa probably just children.
However, now was not the time to argue about this.
from Joe. In their eyes, they were
He brought the two of them into the room and turned on theputer file. Part of the surveince
footage of Opal Heights Bar began to y on the screen.
Samucl exined, “Cullen has been investigating Madison recently. He probably can’t find anything
overseas, but he has obtained some information in the country. I hacked. into hisputer this
morning and found this video.”
The surveince footage was the one that Cullen showed to Leo in the office this morning.
Half of the man’s face was almost identical to Leo’s, but the other half was hidden in the light and
shadow, so his entire face could not be seen.
But no matter who it was, their first reaction after watching
was Leo.
That Included Antoine and Joe.
Samuel shook his head and denied their guess. “It’s not him. The second half of the surveince
footage was Leo taking Jessica away. The two of them were wearing different suits. Leo didn’t have
that much time to change his clothes. However, there’s a high chance that there’s something wrong
with this man.”
Joe’s gaze fell on that half of a face. He felt that he had seen it somewhere before, but his mind kept
ovepping it with Leo’s face, and he could not think about it carefully.
Joe’s tone was unusually serious. “Regardless of whether that person is there for Leo or if he has other
intentions, we need to keep an eye on Madison before she returns to
Rozalia.”
Antoine nodded. “I’ll take good care of Madison tonight.”
It was rtively safe in the vi. They had also arranged for people to be in Rose. Garden, but the
bodyguards could not enter the party. The probability of an ident happening was probably higher.
Even without that person, it was still quite dangerous to go to the Hale family.

“I’ll go with you tonight,” Joe was silent for a moment before speaking.

Antoine was surprised. He suddenly thought of something and a smile appeared on hist cold face. “I
thought you didn’t want to go?”
The tense atmosphere eased a little.
Joe sighed faintly. “It’s all because of this brat. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered to go. If anything
happens in the Hale family’s ce, Dad and Mom will skin me alive when I go back. John won’t let me
off either.”
Samuel watched the two of them bicker and silently left with his ss of water.
Downstairs, Madison was no longer sitting on the couch.
When he didn’t see anyone, Samuel frowned slightly. He increased his pace as he headed downstairs.
At the same time, he lowered his head to see if he received any new
messages.
Samuel? A cool voice came from the kitchen. It carried a hint of surprise. You came downstairs? Are
you hungry? Do you want to cat something first? What do you want to cat for lunch? I’ll cook
Madison’s eyes were sparkling, and her hands were covered in white flour. Her face also had some.
She must have heard the noise from the stairs and ran out of the kitchen without
tidying up.
Samuel heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her.
He didn’t want to talk to her at first, but seeing her like this, he didn’t feel angry at all. It wasn’t good for
their rtionship to remain stiff.
“Yes, I came downstairs to get a ss of water. He raised the ss in his hand and walked straight to
the dining table.
Madison came over. “Samuel, is there anything you want to eat? I’m nning to make some ravioli
now. I’ll cook when it’s time. Tell me what you want to cat. I’ll prepare it
Samuel was silent. His finger rubbed against the transparent ss and he ignored her.
The light in Madison’s eyes dimmed slightly. She probed, “Samuel, are you still angry with me?”
Samuel nodded. “A little.
