“Even if you lack Hayden’s skills, you absolutely cannot afford to fall short when it comes to spirit! Understand? Or else. I’ll just have to teach you a lesson myself!” Madelyn declared with vigor, her fist punching the air as she sported a mock–threatening expression.

Startled, Josiah instinctively shrank back, his voice tinged with a helpless plea, “Come on, can’t you go easy just this once? You’re supposed to be recovering from that injury, yet here you are, stirring things up. Are you trying to aggravate your condition even further?”

Madelyn, undeterred and puffing with determination, raised her fist once more, defiantly retorting, “What does it matter if my hand isn’t fully healed yet? Even with this injured hand, I’m more than capable of taking you down if I have to.”

Once again, Josiah flinched, his fear evident.

On the sidelines, Tristan and Jillian couldn’t help but chuckle at the unfolding drama, finding the entire exchange rather comical.

At that moment, a distinguished–looking young man, guiding another in a wheelchair who had a sun- kissed, bronze complexion, made their approach.

“Hello. Mason and Xander! Josiah’s always speaking so highly of you. He praises you to the skies, talking about your success and good looks. Meeting you today, I see he wasn’t exaggerating, Jillian remarked with

a smile.

Madelyn greeted the brothers with a cordial smile, her manner polite yet infused with a natural innocence and charm, which immediately endeared her to Mason and Xander, greatly enhancing their first impression of her.

“I understand Ms. Thornton has been keeping an eye on Josiah recently? That must have been quite the challenge, as handling him is like dealing with a monkey. We’ll be counting on your patience moving forward,” Mason commented, his tone even and serene

“Well, every troublemaker has their own jinx. No one in our family could manage him before, but it looks like he’s finally met his match,” Xander added, laughing from the side.
