Madeline opened her eyes and looked at Thomas, who was standing by the window after finishing a call. “Has Natasha been here?” asked Madeline.

Lately, she had been weak physically, and her spirits were low. She had been recuperating in the hospital.

Every day when she woke up, she would ask the same question.

With each disappointment and seeing Thomas shake his head again, Madeline’s mood had become quite calm.

She was silent for a moment, then asked, “How is Olivia?”

Thomas walked over and poured her a glass of water. “She’s fine. I heard she was discharged yesterday, looking glamorous.”

His tone was sarcastic.

She was living it up, despite causing so much trouble for the family.

Madeline pursed her lips. “I’ll be discharged today. Call her and Noel home, and we’ll have a good talk.”

Thomas acquiesced to her request.

The stabbing incident involving Madeline had not yet been resolved, so it was good for her to talk with Olivia.

Olivia completely disregarded their anger. “That’s because you’re foolish. My stance remains the same: either give money or go to jail.”

Andrew’s eyes bulged, and his chest heaved.

Ever since she was released from prison and heavily publicized by the media, nothing good had happened at home.

Jail! Why didn’t Natasha ensure she served a longer sentence then?

Looking back, the Clark family, who went to such lengths to get her sentence reduced and cover things up, were truly foolish.
