Not far away, Madeline suddenly turned around and shouted, "Caleb, deal with it as you see fit, but just avoid any extreme measures. Madeline didn't want Benjamin to meet his end that way.

Gazing at the ailing Madeline, his heart aching, Caleb didn't say anything for a moment. Then, he softly inquired, "Do you want to take a day off on Monday?"

"No need. It's just a cold. It's only Saturday, so who knows, I might recover by tomorrow, Madeline replied softly. She pressed her hand against her forehead, leaned back against the couch, and didn't seem overly concerned.
