Thomas was not concerned about Madeline’s mood.

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.

Joel cautioned, “Madeline, today marks a rare occasion for the entire family to venture out together. Let’s not court any Annecessary disruptions.”
