Meanwhile, in the opulent office of Samuel Madison, the patriarch of the Madison family, a tense atmosphere hung in the air. The old man sat behind his massive mahogany desk, his brow furrowed in a deep scowl as he glared at the man standing before him. "What do you mean, the attempt to abduct that little girl failed?"
