"Maddie, what's wrong! Are you feeling unwell?" Benjamin gazed at Madeline with concern and extended his hand to feel her forehead.

"You're incredibly considerate. You always prepare two gifts whenever you give me something, never overlooking Winslet."

Benjamin promptly countered, "Don't jump to conclusions. I intend simply for the two of you to have a harmonious relationship. This is just how I approach things "Is that so?"
