Lucas could not help but repeat to himself, If she wasn't Madeline's best friend, I would definitely have
smacked her senseless! However, despite complaining in his head, he did what he was supposed to
and willingly sent her back to her accommodation.
In reality, Leigh was actually drunk and could not even walk in a straight line. As soon as she entered
her room, she did not even bother to freshen up as she fell to the couch in a slump and went to sleep.
Since they were merely acquaintances, Lucas tried as much as he could to keep his distance. He
grabbed a throw and covered her with it before leaving the room. He made sure to lock her door from
the outside before trying the door several times just to make sure that no one would be able to open it
without the keys. Subsequently, he went back to his room.
The next morning, Leigh was woken up by a barrage of knocks on her door. She sat up and recollected
herself for a moment as she realized that she had fallen asleep on the couch in her room. She slowly
recalled the incident from the previous night and realized that she could still recall most of the things
that happened the previous night, especially the things she'd learned about the Griffins. She lowered
her head once again to glance at the throw covering her and a smile appeared on her face.
"Leigh! Leigh!" Outside the door, Madeline's voice rang out.
"I'm coming." Leigh got up to open the door.
Madeline studied Leigh intently as soon as the door was opened. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Leigh asked, "What could happen to me?"
"Why didn't you respond to my repeated knocks, then? I called you on your phone, but it was switched
off." Madeline chided Leigh, "You made me worry so badly. I thought that something bad had happened
to you."
"I'm fine. I had a bit too much to drink last night, so I was in a deep sleep." Leigh poured two glasses of
water and handed one over to Madeline while she held the other. "Hey, I bumped into your brother-in-
law yesterday and he shared something juicy with me. It was so interesting."
"What brother-in-law?" Madeline was quite shy.
"Well, I bumped into your youngest brother-in-law. His name's Lucas." Leigh grinned. "Your husband's
brother is of good quality and he's not only good-looking but kind too."
At that moment, Madeline was speechless as she thought, How can you describe someone as good
quality? Well, that's not the main point. The main point is…
She inched closer to Leigh. "Are you interested in Lucas? He's unmarried and single, so I can introduce
you two to each other."
Leigh nearly spat out the mouthful of water she had just drank. "What are you on about? Are you going
to matchmake us just because I find him nice? There are so many great guys in this world, are you
going to be able to introduce me to all of them?"
"I can't do much about the others, but Lucas is different." Madeline added, "He's Sebastian's younger
brother, so if you end up marrying him, then we could be sister-in-laws."
Leigh considered it for a moment and finally, she freed the hand she was holding the glass with and
poked Madeline. "That makes sense!"
"It does make sense, right?" Madeline was excited. "We have a deal then? I'll talk to Lucas on your
behalf and you guys can go on a… blind date?"
A blind date was the quickest way to build up a close relationship between two opposite genders. After
the blind date, if they both found each other suitable and they intended to take the relationship further,
then both parties could confirm their status as being in a relationship. It was much faster than
developing feelings for each other and then slowly probing each other before confirming the
relationship.
"If you approach him about this topic, then it would seem as if I was the one who was attracted to him
first. That would be awkward for me!" Leigh took a sip of water and complained, "You should approach
him with this topic slowly."
At that moment, Madeline was at a loss for words. She reckoned that though Leigh was not a celebrity,
she cared too much about her image!
"Fine, that's simple enough." Madeline agreed, "I'll find a chance to broach the topic with Lucas."
Leigh thought of Lucas' good-looking features and the happy conversation they shared last night before
she nodded. "Sure. I don't mind whether things work out or not. It's good enough to gain another
friend."
"Nice!" Madeline smiled and patted Leigh on the shoulders. "I like your straightforward attitude."
Leigh smiled and pinched Madeline's cheeks. "I also like your bossy-ness. Reminds me of my mom."
Madeline retorted, "Leigh! Shefford! I'm going to wring your neck!"
Leigh turned around and scrambled into the bathroom. "I'm freshening up. I haven't even brushed my
teeth yet!"
Speechless, Madeline walked over to Leigh's room. "Leigh, I nearly forgot about the important matter I
came here for. Your uncle and aunt are here."
Leigh, who was behind the door, suddenly recalled the words that Lucas had used on her last night.
Why you so annoying?
She parroted his words, "Why you so annoying?"
Leigh responded, "A-Alright. Brandon and Jennifer are here. They mentioned that they've already
released a press statement and they've severed ties with Bryson and his family. The Penhams have
also reported to the authorities and Penny's been taken into custody. They would like to seek your help
in treating their daughter and Eddie."
On the other side of the door, the sound of trickling water was no longer audible as Leigh yelled out
from behind the door, "I got it. They've kept their end of the promise, so I'll keep my words too.
Madeline, you should go about with your own matters. I'll pop over to see you after my shower."
"Okoy, I got it. I'll moke you some ootmeol ond you con hove thot ofter your shower. Come ond see me
ofter you've eoten," Modeline instructed.
"Thonks, my deor bossyponts, Moddie. I love you! Hugs ond kisses!" Leigh's voice wos sweeter thon
honey.
Meonwhile, Modeline thought to herself, Dr. Shefford's got o split personolity. Sometimes she's sweet,
but sometimes she's cold ond unfeeling. Todoy she's in o sickly sweet mode.
She mode some ootmeol for Leigh ond simmered it on o low flome on the stove before cutting some
fruits. Just os Modeline wos obout to leove, Leigh wolked out of the bothroom.
Leigh noticed the ootmeol ond fruits ond smiled sweetly ot Modeline. "Thonks, boby Moddie! I reckon
you should breok up with Sebostion ond I won't go ofter Lucos too. Let's just get together ond we con
keep eoch other compony!"
Modeline replied, "Could you undergo SRS ond become Aldo ond Buddy's dod? If you con, then I don't
mind getting together with you."
Leigh smiled ond soid, "The door is thot woy. You should leove. See you loter!"
Modeline smocked Leigh on the heod lightly. "Finish your breokfost!"
"Yes, mo'om!" Leigh stood upright ond soluted Modeline, who then shot o resigned look ot her before
turning oround to leove.
Modeline went bock to her office ond noticed thot Brondon ond Jennifer were still woiting there. She
opologized, "I'm sorry for moking you two woit. Leigh's hoving breokfost, so you'd hove to woit for her
to finish."
"It's olright. We don't mind woiting." Jennifer hurriedly replied, "We come over unonnounced ond it's our
foult for disrupting her routine."
Modeline served them some fresh teo. "Leigh wos in o bod mood ond she went for some drinks lost
night, so she woke up loter thon usuol. She didn't meon to be rude."
"Yes, we understond." Brondon spoke in o low voice, "Our fomily owes her on opology, ond if we get
the chonce in the future, we'll definitely do our best to compensote her."
Modeline merely smiled without responding to his words.
Ten minutes loter, Leigh finolly turned up blissfully lote.
Jennifer got up to greet Leigh ond Brondon stood up os well.
"Toke o seot, pleose." Leigh wos polite to the duo os she took o seot ocross from them.
After some exchonge of pleosontries, Jennifer quickly brought up the moin topic. "We've releosed on
officiol stotement severing ties with Bryson ond his fomily. Penny hos olso been token into police
custody, so Dr. Shefford, could you stort providing treotment for my doughter ond fother?"
"Okay, I got it. I'll make you some oatmeal and you can have that after your shower. Come and see me
after you've eaten," Madeline instructed.
"Thanks, my dear bossypants, Maddie. I love you! Hugs and kisses!" Leigh's voice was sweeter than
honey.
Meanwhile, Madeline thought to herself, Dr. Shefford's got a split personality. Sometimes she's sweet,
but sometimes she's cold and unfeeling. Today she's in a sickly sweet mode.
She made some oatmeal for Leigh and simmered it on a low flame on the stove before cutting some
fruits. Just as Madeline was about to leave, Leigh walked out of the bathroom.
Leigh noticed the oatmeal and fruits and smiled sweetly at Madeline. "Thanks, baby Maddie! I reckon
you should break up with Sebastian and I won't go after Lucas too. Let's just get together and we can
keep each other company!"
Madeline replied, "Could you undergo SRS and become Aldo and Buddy's dad? If you can, then I don't
mind getting together with you."
Leigh smiled and said, "The door is that way. You should leave. See you later!"
Madeline smacked Leigh on the head lightly. "Finish your breakfast!"
"Yes, ma'am!" Leigh stood upright and saluted Madeline, who then shot a resigned look at her before
turning around to leave.
Madeline went back to her office and noticed that Brandon and Jennifer were still waiting there. She
apologized, "I'm sorry for making you two wait. Leigh's having breakfast, so you'd have to wait for her
to finish."
"It's alright. We don't mind waiting." Jennifer hurriedly replied, "We came over unannounced and it's our
fault for disrupting her routine."
Madeline served them some fresh tea. "Leigh was in a bad mood and she went for some drinks last
night, so she woke up later than usual. She didn't mean to be rude."
"Yes, we understand." Brandon spoke in a low voice, "Our family owes her an apology, and if we get
the chance in the future, we'll definitely do our best to compensate her."
Madeline merely smiled without responding to his words.
Ten minutes later, Leigh finally turned up blissfully late.
Jennifer got up to greet Leigh and Brandon stood up as well.
"Take a seat, please." Leigh was polite to the duo as she took a seat across from them.
After some exchange of pleasantries, Jennifer quickly brought up the main topic. "We've released an
official statement severing ties with Bryson and his family. Penny has also been taken into police
custody, so Dr. Shefford, could you start providing treatment for my daughter and father?"
