Madeline emerged from the room with a phone pressed to her ear. "Wait there, I'll be right down."

"Mr. Lewis, with all due respect, what are you doing here? Betraying Tiffany with her best friend wasn't enough? Now you're practically killing her. You and that Brianna really are two of a kind!" She turned to Alex, not wanting to waste any words on William. "Tiffany needs company. I have something urgent to handle."

"Sure, Madam Burton," Alex replied.
