Chapter 175 My Billionaire Missing Lover
- Maddie knew that her mother was bringing her sister to the Smith family’s banquet. She rushed back overnight. Mr. Green and Cathy were already asleep, but she woke them up again. Children were all debts! Cathy sighed and put on her clothes to open the door. Maddie came in and sat on the sofa. When she opened her mouth, she asked, “Mom, how could you bring my sister to the Smith family?” Cathy rubbed her eyes and said with a sleepy expression, “She begged me for a few days and looked extremely pitiful. I really couldn’t bear to see her like this.” “Do you think she can do whatever she wants just because she’s pitiful? She’s done so many wrong things. Just indulge her!” Maddie’s face turned cold. Her expression was horrible. “The Smith family is inviting guests this time. It’s obvious that they want to announce to the world that they will no longer live in seclusion. At that time, who knows how many big shots will come?” At this point, Maddie looked serious, and her voice became low. “I received news that the Smith family has sent invitations to the top families in Capital City. There’s even news that Mr. Book is very likely to arrive this time.” “What did you say? Mr. Book will be there!” Mr. Green had been lying quietly on the bed. When he heard about Mr. Book, his expression changed instantly, and his eyes were filled with shock.
- Although Mr. Book’s name and image appeared on the news broadcast every day, it felt like he was running around the world. He always met all kinds of people and shook hands with them warmly. He seemed to be very close to everyone. However, this was just an illusion. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens for ordinary people to see Mr. Book. Not to mention Mr. Book, even the students of the university could not see the principal once in four years. “Is the news accurate?” Mr. Green asked. Maddie shook her head. “Dad, how would I know Mr. Book’s whereabouts? I just heard the news. I believe Isaac was the one who healed Ryan. Someone guessed that Mr. Book would be there this time.” “I see.” Mr. Green nodded and closed his eyes to think. If Mr. Book arrived, then the significance of this banquet would be extraordinary. They had to be extremely careful. “Amelia can’t go!” Mr. Green suddenly opened his eyes, which were shining brightly. Hearing this, Cathy was speechless for a moment. Anxiety appeared on her face. “What about Amelia? It’s fine if I didn’t let her go at the beginning, but now I’m going back on my word. She won’t be able to take it!” Amelia’s mental state had never been very good. Now, she looked like a normal person. However, Cathy learned from the servant who served Amelia that Amelia had not been resting well recently and had insomnia all night. “Forget it. Let her go.
- At most, I’ll keep an eye on her,” Maddie suddenly said. Although she spoke ruthlessly, she was actually the most soft-hearted. “Alas.” Cathy walked over and hugged Maddie. Her heart ached. “It’s been hard on you.” The Smith family’s banquet was a good opportunity to make connections, but Maddie had to keep an eye on Amelia the entire time, so she would miss this opportunity. Maddie seemed to have sensed something. She suddenly looked up at her mother and probed. “Then don’t let Amelia go.” Cathy’s body stiffened. Maddie immediately smiled brightly. “I’m just joking. Don’t worry. I’ll keep an eye on my sister.” Anyway, this was not the first time something like this had happened. She was already used to it. When she went downstairs, she met Ronald. He sat on the sofa calmly with his arms crossed, as if he were deliberately waiting for her. Maddie raised her eyebrows and said, “It’s so late. Why aren’t you sleeping?” Ronald looked up at Maddie and frowned. He said it unhappily. “Why did you come back?” “Why can’t I come back? This is my home.” Maddie leaned against the sofa and massaged her temples with a tired expression. “Humph.” Ronald sneered.
