Harriet was the first to respond. She sneered at Madelyn, "What's that supposed to mean? And who do you think you are, telling us to leave?”
"Because I'm Mrs. Miller!" Madelyn fired back.
Harriet was visibly surprised, her smirk fading.
Sophie stepped forward decisively, feigning concern as she politely asked, "Madelyn, what are you doing? Hattie and I have always treated you like sisters for Elena's sake."
At the mention of Elena, Madelyn narrowed her eyes menacingly." Looks like you're asking to be kicked out!"

"L-Let me go! Now!" Harriet exclaimed.
Madelyn smirked and released her grip. Harriet, struggling, promptly lost her footing and tumbled to the ground. Sophie hurried to Harriet's side to help her.

Madelyn didn't want to waste her breath on them. Not wanting to keep Andrew waiting at the birthday celebration, she headed straight for the two of them.

Madelyn fell silent.
Stella's previous hostility toward Madelyn had dissipated. She grinned mischievously. "Who knew Maddie had such a fierce side?" Madelyn gave Stella a piercing glare, her embarrassment leaving her momentarily speechless.
Carrie nudged Stella's shoulder. "See? I told you. She's quite the charmer when she's herself again. You didn't believe me, did you?" Madelyn couldn't bear listening to them any longer. They kept bringing up Easton at every opportunity and wouldn't drop it.
When Andrew realized Madelyn had been absent from the birthday celebration for quite some time, he sent someone to locate her. Madelyn glanced at Stella and Carrie. "How about we have a meal together tomorrow?"
"Sure, just give us a ring!"
Madelyn nodded and went with the person Andrew had sent to find her.
Carrie and Stella watched Madelyn leave. Stella clicked her tongue in disbelief. "I never saw that coming. She's really different now." "Yeah, exactly. She was so into Easton before, but now, they seem like sworn enemies."
Stella giggled. Carrie's assessment of Madelyn was spot on.
