My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)

Chapter 347



Chapter 347

Amidst the clinking of glasses, everyone was eating and drinking with excitement.

Suddenly, Madeline clutched her chest, "I'm gonna throw up. Ugh, I need to hit the restroom. Wait for me, I'll be right back..."

She said as she stumbled out the door.

Back then, Chloe and Rose would definitely have stopped her from running out at such a crucial moment. But now, both had drunk some spiked drinks, their faces flushed, and their minds hazy. They could hardly take care of themselves, let alone anyone else. Especially Rose, who felt unusually hot and realized something was wrong. She loosened two buttons on her collar, looking quite charming.

She held her forehead, "I need to go back."

Farrell grabbed Rose's hand. "Rosie, why are you in such a hurry? Look at you, you're in no shape to drive. I've called a driver for you, he'll be here in a few minutes."

Hearing this, Rose realized he was right. Someone with her status couldn't just get a cab, and driving was out of the question. If she called someone from her agency, it would draw too much attention. She didn't want everyone to know what she'd done. "Okay, Chloe, you can ride back with me later."

Lucas had already followed Madeline outside. He approached her with concern to support her, "Madeline, don't drink anymore! They..."

When he noticed the refreshed look on Madeline's face, he paused in surprise, "Were you pretending?"

"Of course," Madeline took out a small box from her pocket, her expression calm and very indifferent, "Detox pills, want some? They spiked my drink, but my brother Nolan gave me these little pills to counteract it. I also added something to their drinks, and it's about to take effect...

Considerately, Madeline closed the door of the room and flipped the sign to 'Do Not Disturb.

"They chose such a nice restaurant with high privacy; it was convenient for them too."

Saying this, Madeline walked briskly, leading Lucas to the parking lot downstairs.

Lucas, who didn't drink at all, sat in the driver's seat.

Madeline held her phone and called the authorities to report the illegal group activities, then informed the media Later, she turned off her phone and yawned, "I'm kind of sleepy. I have a shoot at 2 PM; remember to wake me up..."

She covered herself with a small blanket and fell asleep while leaning back. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, but her breathing was steady, showing no signs of being drunk.

Lucas couldn't help but glance at her a few more times. His sister, who used to really dislike him, could now sleep peacefully by his side, indicating she must trust him greatly.

Lucas made sure to close all the windows and slightly increased the air conditioner's temperature.

During the afternoon shoot, two people were absent. The production team tacitly didn't mention them, and many of the regular staff members weren't there either, replaced by new faces on set. Mr. Thurman wasn't there as well, only the assistant director, who seemed overwhelmed. The assistant director rubbed his forehead and sighed, but luckily, the filming was still going smoothly.

Break time.

Madeline heard someone calling her from behind her seat. She turned to see a young guy. "Hey, where are your roommates Rose and Chloe? Did something really happen to them?" Fred, being young and a bit of a gossip, got bored during filming and started messing around on his phone. That's when he saw the news online.

Madeline feigned confusion, "They didn't come today, and I have no idea. Do you know where they went?"

Fred opened his mouth hesitantly, then remembered he wasn't sure about the details, so he quickly said, "Check on Twitter yourself. It's hard to explain."

"Why is it such a big secret?" Another girl chimed in, "My friend texted me asking if it's true that Chloe and Rose got caught hanging out with some influential people. Seriously, that's wild!" "At first, I didn't believe it either, but they're really not here, and Mr. Thurman is absent too. Something's definitely up."

Madeline nodded and said, "I see, I'll check online."

Madeline opened the app and saw that Chloe and Rose were indeed trending.

Marketing Buzz: [Here's some juicy 4-million-dollar news! The duo from the popular esports show got caught in a hotel room with four executives, and they were taken in. This is authentic; just wait for the official announcement.] There were already over fifty thousand comments under it, and the buzz was insane.

The esports show duo was practically an open secret, but fans didn't want to believe it. Onlookers thought it was crazy, while haters snickered. [We always knew they were this kind.]

The story was blowing up beyond belief; it was truly a spectacle.

Madeline kept a straight face. If she were just an ignorant newbie, she would be the one being laughed at online. Therefore, she had no sympathy for Chloe and Rose.

"Isn't this news absurd?" Fred asked cautiously, considering they were in the same dorm; Madeline must know something.

Madeline laughed a little, "On the surface, they seemed pretty normal, and I never heard them talking to any guys on the phone. It's quite surprising."

As soon as this hit the trending list, the contestants on the show were buzzing with conversation about it. Madeline heard the lively discussions behind her. Even public figures love their gossip.

"I really can't believe Rose would be like this. Chloe somewhat makes sense, but Rose... she always appeared so pure and polite. Who knew she'd lead such a double life?"

"Don't say that, how many actresses in the entertainment industry rise to fame cleanly? Unless they genuinely have a good family background."

"I think they're in trouble this time. Doing something so daring during filming? Too confident. If they had sneaked around when not filming, maybe they wouldn't have been caught so quickly." "Are you crazy? The fact that they dared means they probably do this kind of thing often."

Madeline lowered her gaze, her eyelashes hiding the emotions in her eyes.

Lucas suddenly said, "Madeline, something's wrong! It looks like the video got out, and we were there too. It won't be long before we get involved."

"Don't worry," Madeline said with a casual smile.

She had an audio recording on her phone that could show they weren't on the same side. But she wouldn't release it until the situation peaked, otherwise, it would seem like she's trying to cover it up. "Should I ask the company to take care of it?" Lucas frowned, "I could give up my pay for the next show... I'm sure the company would agree."

Madeline turned off her phone, "Just relax and enjoy the show. You don't need to worry about anything else."
