Ms. Moore, of course, was none other than Harriet.
“What is she doing here?”
Madelyn was slightly annoyed.

Madelyn sneered inwardly, then responded nonchalantly, “I’m much better. Thank you for your concern. But I wonder what pressing matter requires your personal visit to our home.”
The tone of Madelyn’s words made it blatantly clear that she did not welcome her.

Madelyn instantly found herself a bit irked.
