Madeline clearly heard Scarlett\u2019s greeting but completely ignored her, continuing to hold Sabrina\u2019s hand as she chatted warmly. \u201cDaniel mentioned you play the piano beautifully. You should come visit more often and play for me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina first glanced subtly at Scarlett, then her gaze briefly touched Vincent\u2019s before she responded to Madeline with a gentle smile, \u201cAs long as you enjoy it, Madeline, just say the word and I\u2019ll be here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Madeline\u2019s smile widened, her eyes crinkling at the corners. \u201cWhat a thoughtful child you are. Not like some people-wearing that white coat but lacking basic manners. They put on airs as if they\u2019re something special, not realizing how fragile their position really is. One word from the right person could shatter their entire world.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett stood quietly in the center of the living room, her expression calm. She recognized the deliberate provocation in Madeline\u2019s words and understood this treatment stemmed from Vincent\u2019s attitude toward her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Vincent didn\u2019t value her, why would his family and friends show her any respect? Even with Vincent present, Madeline felt free to humiliate her so openly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent remained silent, which didn\u2019t surprise Scarlett. A faint, almost imperceptible smile touched her lips as she addressed Madeline, \u201cMrs. Lennox, Grandpa was concerned about your health and asked me to check on you. Since you appear to be in excellent spirits, I\u2019ll take my leave. There\u2019s no need to trouble yourself about dinner-someone is waiting for me at home.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After delivering this polite yet distant response, Scarlett turned to exit. But after two steps, she paused, a sweet yet sharp smile gracing her features as she added, \u201cMrs. Lennox, at your age, it\u2019s particularly important to take good care of your health. I sincerely hope you remain in perfect health and never require hospital services.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her words carried layered meaning-a subtle reminder that Madeline owed her current vitality to medical professionals like herself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Without waiting for a response, Scarlett turned and walked away decisively.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Madeline\u2019s face paled instantly, her breathing becoming slightly labored from suppressed\u00a0<\/p>\n
anger.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Seeing this, Vincent quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to her, gently patting her back in a soothing motion.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina moved closer to support Madeline, speaking in soft, comforting tones, \u201cMadeline, please don\u2019t upset yourself over such unimportant matters. Your wellbeing is what truly\u00a0<\/p>\n
matters.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Outside, Daniel happened to return just as Scarlett was leaving, their paths nearly crossing in the doorway.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you doing here?\u201d Daniel asked, his tone laced with suspicion and disapproval.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett didn\u2019t even glance his way, brushing past him as if he were invisible as she continued out the door.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel stood frozen for a moment, his frown deepening. Lately, Scarlett had become completely unrecognizable to him. The woman who once went out of her way to please the Lennoxes now treated them with utter indifference.\u00a0<\/p>\n
No wonder Vincent showed her no affection\u2014with such a disagreeable temperament, how could she possibly compare to someone as refined as Sabrina? The thought made him snort derisively before he entered the living room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Upon entering, he witnessed Sabrina carefully helping Madeline adjust her hat, the scene striking him as particularly touching.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He hurried over and took over the task from Sabrina. \u201cSabrina, you\u2019ve already done so much these past few days. Let me handle this,\u201d he said, his voice filled with genuine appreciation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel had heard all about Sabrina\u2019s recent efforts-how she\u2019d contacted classmates, reached out to professors, and exhausted all her connections trying to find someone who could reason with Nolan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Though ultimately unsuccessful, she\u2019d even personally approached Scarlett to plead their case. That Madeline was now recovering so well was largely thanks to Sabrina\u2019s dedication.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina offered a modest smile. \u201cDaniel, we\u2019re friends. This is simply what friends do for each other.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
In that moment, Daniel became even more convinced that Sabrina was the ideal match for Vincent. The Stewart family\u2019s wealth meant Vincent didn\u2019t need a marriage for financial advantage-what he needed was an intelligent, poised woman who understood social nuances. Someone exactly like Sabrina.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Though Daniel didn\u2019t voice these thoughts aloud, his resolution solidified-he would do everything in his power to see Sabrina become Vincent\u2019s wife.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Madeline clearly shared this sentiment. She kept holding Vincent\u2019s hand and urging, \u201cSabrina is truly a wonderful girl, perfectly suited to stand by your side. If you have feelings for her, you should cherish her properly.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent glanced at Madeline, a faint, unreadable smile playing on his lips, but offered no verbal\u00a0<\/p>\n
response.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since Madeline had recently undergone surgery, it wasn\u2019t advisable for her to remain in the living room for extended periods. Daniel soon helped her back to her bedroom to rest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When he returned, he suggested to Vincent and Sabrina, \u201cWhy don\u2019t you both stay for dinner?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent declined politely, \u201cNot tonight. We\u2019ll take a rain check.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Daniel checked the time-it was indeed getting late-so he didn\u2019t press further. \u201cAlright, I\u2019ll host you both properly next time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As Vincent passed by the table, his eyes fell upon the gifts arranged there. He paused abruptly and turned to Daniel. \u201cThese are from my wife. They\u2019re from Grandpa, and from both her and me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Vincent used the formal address \u201cmy wife\u201d, Daniel instinctively glanced toward Sabrina. Their eyes met briefly in silent understanding, though neither chose to comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent\u2019s unexpected mention of Scarlett left Daniel genuinely puzzled about what Vincent could possibly be thinking.\u00a0<\/p>\n
