Madeline whirled around. "What are you implying?"Hoyt let out a relieved breath when she paused. "Promise you won't come after me, and I'll spill everything."Fury blazed in Madeline's eyes as she glared at Hoyt.His confidence wavered under her intense stare. "I'm the only one who knows the whole story. If you don't agree, you'll be left in the dark forever."She isn't actually sick," Hoyt added, sensing Madeline's skepticism.Madeline fought back a tidal wave of anger, took a deep breath, and slowly returned to her seat. "Go ahead," she said, her voice steady but ice-cold.…After leaving the detective agency, Madeline felt lost, unsure of her next move.On a whim, she hailed a cab and headed straight to the club—Cooper's workplace.The Meridian Club was not as swanky as the Crystal River Clubhouse, but it was just as packed, maybe even more so. The crowd was mostly women, a mix of ages and styles.Madeline watched them, dazed, Hoyt's recent revelations echoing in her he

Madeline had been talking in circles for what felt like forever before she finally pieced together that just a few days back, someone had been snooping around for info on Cooper, curious about his recent companions.Turns out, that nosy parker had been plotting to buy Cooper's freedom.However, Cooper was not having any of it.The guy kicked up a storm, but he got his comeuppance—a good thrashing and the boot, right out the door.Madeline's mouth hung open a touch.That was news.Jaxon chimed in, "I'd drop it if I were you. Cooper's pretty much royalty around here now. He's way out of your league."Madeline's expression darkened, her voice icing over. "That's none of your business. Can you just get him for me?"Jaxon's brow creased with concern. "Look, if you've got a crush on Cooper, I could set you up with someone else."She was known for splashing the cash, and not even a baby bump could dent her appeal.Madeline cut to the chase. "Just bring him to me, and I'll spring for

Riley's expression turned stormy in an instant. She was being disrespected right after she had extended a courtesy!"So, this is what you meant by 'don't get the wrong idea'?"Cooper rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. He had just managed to smooth things over with Riley, and he had not even reaped any rewards yet.Then, with Madeline stirring up trouble, he was at a loss as to how to calm the waters again.He briskly shook off Madeline's hand and said icily, "Ms. Sanders, please show some dignity. We're not acquainted, and I'd appreciate it if you didn't make my guest uncomfortable."Madeline's hand fell away, and even though she knew it was not Cooper's fault, a sharp pain still pierced her heart.Riley, sensing victory in her standoff with Madeline, lifted her chin with a smug air. "From now on, every time she shows up, kick her out! She's banned from the Meridian Club for good!"Madeline turned to Cooper, who just nonchalantly kicked at the ground, ignoring her

Trevon's hand was cut deeply, with nearly twenty wounds from the glass shards. The hospital staff worked on them until late into the night, barely finishing the job, and he even got a tetanus shot.Madeline bit her lip, silent, her eyes brimming with unshed tears."The wound needs daily care, and to keep it dry. Stick to a light diet," the doctor advised.Without a word, Madeline took the medicine and walked out in silence.Trevon found her behavior odd, thinking she was upset from her encounter with Cooper, and asked quietly, "Weren't we waiting on the DNA test results? Why'd you go off to find someone today?"Madeline bit her lip, a clear sign she was holding back words.Trevon's brow creased with concern as he reached for her. "What's up?"Her gaze snapped up, eyes swirling with doubt. Could she put her trust in Trevon?Her mother had put that same trust in Cilix, leaving everything behind for him, a gamble that cost her dearly.Cilix, who once seemed to bear any pain, any

The painting was a regular landscape, a bit aged but not an antique or a historical piece.All it needed was some standard care and restoration.Madeline turned to Willa and said, "Your turn."Willa was taken aback. She had not expected to be put on the spot like that.Madeline did not see what the big deal was. Noticing Willa's hesitation, she asked, "Something wrong?"Willa shook her head quickly, took Madeline's seat, and got to work on the painting.However, the mood in the live stream shifted as some viewers started to grumble.[Why's the sidekick doing the work? Can't the main act handle it? What's she even doing here?][What's her role? To look pretty? That face is just here to reel us in, isn't it?][This is the provincial museum's stream, right? Are they really stooping to such cheap tricks to get views?][We came here for a glimpse of genuine artifact restoration, not to stare at a pretty face!][Seriously, has the state museum run out of staff? Why use a pretty fa
