The Remorseful Brothers Novel
Chapter 291

Madeline soon drove back and casually tossed a bottle of water onto the passenger seat.

When Eugene got in the car, a sip of water might help him feel better.

Madeline sighed while driving, saying, “Well, it’s tough to be in this line of work if you can’t drink, Why is he dedicated to a job he doesn’t even like

Madeline’s thoughts wandered, and she started to feel sorry for Eugene

She e pulled the car to the curb and saw a group of women talking to Eugene. She called out to Eugene several times, but he just kept without reacting.

at his head down

Madeline was getting a bit annoyed. The weather was cloudy, and the cold wind was uncomfortable.

Wearing such thin clothes, Eugene looked pitiable

Madeline shouted at the women. “Hey, what are you all doing?”

Someone replied. “We’re asking Mr. Sharp if he needs any help:

Madeline said. “He’s already feeling terrible. He can’t even respond to anything you say to him. Stop crowding around him Madeline’s tone wasn’t exactly friendly. She didn’t understand why those women gathered around Eugene like that.

Someone said. “Why are you being so rude? We’re just trying to help. Can’t you t tell

Another person retoned, “Indeed just because you’re accompanying Mr. Sharp tonight, don’t assume you can act without restraint. Do you believe you have some sort of ownership over him? Who exactly do you think you are?”

A woman echoed. “Right, Mr. Sharp can go wherever he wants. It’s none of your business.”

Madeline let out a sarcastic laugh and said. “Are you here to help him or just to ogle at him? I can’t even be bothered to call you out on it

Madeline was spot on. Such a handsome guy standing helplessly on the roadside was indeed irresistible to troublemakers.

Besides, it was Eugene–a very popular guy, yet no one ever managed to win him over

If someone took advantage of his rare drunken state to bring him home, they wouldn’t miss out. In fact, they might end up having a one–night

stand:

Such things were common in their circle.

Many couples supposedly got together after getting drunk.

Madeline said, “Leave us alone, I’m taking him home. You should all mind your own business.”

Even though

women weren’t happy about it, they didn’t dare cause a scene here. After all, it was Eugene’s party, and everyone here was associated with him. Plus, plenty of people coming and going knew Eugene,

Those women just approached Eugene to try the

their luck

Someone advised Madeline, “Next time, pay attention to Mr. Sharp. You’re fortunate to be with him, so make sure to take good care of him. Don’t abandon him, and please don’t interpret our good intentions as interference!”

Madeline realized some people never admit defear, even at the end.

The crowd dispersed, leaving behind a peaceful calm.

Eugene lifted his slightly reddened eyes and said, “Maddie, you’re back.”

Eugene raised his right hand, gently touching her cheek with his thumb, and said, “Madeline, are you mad at me? Was I being not good? I’ve been here waiting for you to come and get me.

Eugene had been waiting for Madeline to return to him, just as he did when they were at

at the orphanage.

He believed he was special to her.

He was meant to be her.

However, Madeline never came to take Eugene away.

Hueyes were filled with complex emotions, something like longing, but also cherishing and gratitude.

Madeline was a bit taken aback. She held his hand and smiled, saying. “Have you drunk too much and gotten emotional! Look at you, usually so clever, and now you’re being all silly. Alas!!

Madeline resigned herself to Eugene’s changed behavior, replaceing it amusing and interesting. She said, “Come on, let’s go home. I’ll make some hangover soup for you so that you won’t keep talking nonsense. How could I ever leave you alone?”

Madeline helped Eugene and opened the car’s backseat floor. Just as she reached for the handle, she felt Eugene’s arms wrap around her waist, holding her close.

Eugene murmured, “Madeline, please don’t leave again, okay!”

“Okay” Madeline said firmly, “I won’t leave. Don’t worry,

Aher finally getting Eugene into the car, Madeline gave him some water, feeling utterly helpless,

She felt that dealing with a drunk person was really exhausting.

Madeline said, “Just sit tight. Ell drive. No more whining, okay?”

Eugene Look Madeline’s hand, placing it over his heart with a smile, and said, “I won’t whine anymore. I’m feeling good, not bad…”

Madeline drove all the way back home.

There were only three rooms in her apartment, with Bobby in one and Gavin in another. There was no way a drunken Eugene could bunk with them, so Madeline had to put him in her room.

It was already the early hours of the morning.

Madeline’s room had its own bathroom. She changed into her pajamas first, as the room was warm and cozy.

She prepared some warm water and stood by the bed, looking at Eugene who had already sunk into the soft mattress. She shook her head and went over to lay him flat on his back

After thinking it over, Madeline decided to take off Eugene’s shim and wipe his body with a towel.

Eugene’s physique was impressive. Madeline squatted on the bed, wiping the sweat off him.

Madeline commented, “You’ve really w

Eugene’s shoulders were broad, the kind of build where he looked muscular without clothes and slim with them on. His body was smooth and his muscles were well–defined, especially his waist which was narrow, but his abs were an impressive eight–pack, full of a mature man’s charm

Madeline withdrew her gaze and took a deep breath

She murmured, “Don’t look

She kept wiping his shoulders, her gaze fixed on the vivid red tattoo of camellias that bloomed as beautifully as ever. The intensity of the colors appeared even more striking due to his heat and drunkenness.

Madeline said to herself, “Getting this tattoo must have hurt a lot. As she spoke, she reached out to touch it with her finger, thinking about how he had gotten it because of her.

Eugene was quite young then Did he ever resent it because of the pain!

It must have been really painful.

Madeline frowned in sympathy and sighed.

She picked up the towel and was about to get out of beil but her wrist was grabbed.

Eugene had opened his res at some point, his face no longer showing any signs of drunkenness, and he was gazing Eugene had been watching bes since the started staring blankly at his body, making him feel uncomfortable and open his eyes.

Eugene thought about it and acted accordingly, pulling Madeline into his arms. Hearing her surprised gasp. he smiled.

Eugene held Madeline’s petite form in his embrace, resting his chin on her head. One of his arms held her waist while the other hand gently

touched the back of her head.

He whispered, “Don’t go, stay here with me.”
