Madeline thought Riley was heading their way, but to her surprise, she did not even give them a second look and just breezed by.She overheard Riley greeting a young guy, and they walked off, arm in arm.Trevon's expression soured in a flash. Madeline just raised an eyebrow, not in the mood to get involved.After clocking out, Madeline gave Xoan a ring.It took an eternity for someone to pick up on the other end.Madeline was feeling a bit irked. "So, what's the scoop on the Sanders family drama?"Xoan's voice came through, scratchy and strained. "Got some juicy bits. Sending them your way now."When Madeline heard a sharp yelp of pain from him, she frowned. "Are you feeling okay?"Xoan was quick to brush it off. "Nope, I'm good. I'm good."However, a chorus of heavy breaths came through.A voice from someone else chimed in. "He's alright, just had a close call with a beatdown."Xoan's voice followed, sounding totally ticked off.Madeline was taken aback and made a beeline

The Sanders Group was on a roll, its financing a breeze and its stock soaring after going public. At the year-end shareholders' meeting, grins were plastered on every face. Who would not be thrilled with a windfall?However, Hoyt was over the moon. With the company's stellar performance, he was already dreaming of orders doubling the next day. The thought alone was enough to make him chuckle.The ever-stoic Cilix cast a sidelong glance at Hoyt before addressing the room. "The Sanders Group's triumph wouldn't be possible without your backing. Next year, let's aim even higher together!"As he finished, Hoyt led a thunderous round of applause. Even Cilix, a man sparing with his smiles, let a rare one slip through.As the last echoes of applause died down, one person's clapping continued, slow and deliberate. Cilix turned to find Madeline standing at the conference room door, her hands coming together in a steady rhythm, her face unreadable.Cilix's brow creased with annoyance. "What

Once Madeline was gone, Cilix's expression turned stormy.He looked down at the papers in his hand and, in a fit of frustration, hurled them across the room.Yancy entered quietly at the sound, calmly picking up the scattered documents. "Mr. Sanders, some shareholders called. They're expecting a callback. Here's the list."Cilix ignored the list, massaging his temples as he closed his eyes and leaned back. Yancy stepped behind him and started to work on his tense shoulders.After a moment, Cilix asked quietly, "What's your take on this mess?"Yancy hesitated, then replied, "The shareholders are curious about what's going on between you and Miss Madeline. They seem ready to follow her lead. If she pulls out, they're likely to do the same."Cilix clenched his fists in frustration, then slowly let go. "Fair-weather friends, all of them."Yancy smiled. "The whole divorce saga between Miss Madeline and Mr. Gibson has been hush-hush, you know. Keeping up appearances for the Gibson Gro

As the year was winding down, Yarden Ferguson and his wife Joanna Wheeler wrapped up their globe-trotting adventure and headed back to Redenbaugh City.No sooner had they landed than Yarden called Stephen into his home office."Stephen, I've heard some talk about Grandma shifting some money from Hector's trust. What's the story?" Yarden asked.Stephen sighed, a bit at a loss. "Uh... Dad, maybe you should just ask Grandma about it."Yarden just stared at him, waiting.Stephen gave a wry smile. "It's not the end of the world. Grandma just lost her cool with him. Hector's been kind of a mess lately, burning through cash with his business ventures."Yarden pressed, "Cut the act. What's going on with this Madeline girl?"Stephen was even more cornered then.He had hoped to keep Madeline's identity under wraps, but it was tricky to explain.Before he could come up with a response, Yarden guessed, "She's your aunt's daughter, isn't she?"The money that was once Hector's had been red

Madeline strolled into the lobby, her eyes like frost as they landed on the man who spoke.It was Hoyt.Hoyt smirked upon seeing Madeline. "Well, if it isn't my favorite niece! Been ages, kiddo. I've been missing something fierce."The words had barely left his mouth when Hoyt felt a piercing stare drilling into him.He scowled and traced the line of sight.Standing next to Madeline was a man in a pricey suit who oozed class. He was smirking at Hoyt.A shiver ran down Hoyt's back from that look.However, the sensation vanished as quickly as it came, as if it was never there.It must have been his imagination.Hoyt shrugged it off and gave Madeline another eyebrow raise.Madeline's voice was a frosty blade. "Your 'favorite niece' is in the psych ward. If you're missing her that much, why don't you go and keep her company?""Madeline, you're really pushing it," Hoyt snapped, slapping his hand down and pointing accusingly at her.Madeline was not in the mood for his nonsense.
