Thomas was not concerned about Madeline's mood.

For Madeline, that surely must have been like a heart-wrenching ordeal.

Fortunately, Madeline did not care.

They drove two cars out of the house.

Winslet occupied the driver's seat, with Madeline seated beside her in the front.

In the rear, Jacob, Joel, and Lucas formed a lineup regarding Madeline with frosty countenances.
