She becthe eldest daughter of the Wilsons, and now she's engaged to Sean," Madeline said, her eyes lighting up as she changed the subject. "I used to pity her, but now it seems I'm the one who needs it. She's not only secured a high status but found true love too. I heard she's taken over Silver Boulder Private Hospital and has big plans for it." Sharon scoffed. "Norah, that naive girl, thinks she's shighborn lady just because she's back with the Wilsons? She is quite full of herself. It's a shabout Silver Boulder Private Hospital. It'll probably go under soon. Imagine a country girl thinking she can run a hospital."

Sharon's voice was bitter as she said, "She's close to dying. She had a stroke and is bedridden now, needing constant care. You've said enough. Now leave." Hearing this, Madeline felt a perverse thrill and departed from the Carter hfeeling unusually buoyant. Turning to Marlene with a stern expression, Sharon said, "You know our financial situation is tight right now. We can't afford extra help, and since you're home, you'll need to take care of Juliana." Marlene nodded meekly. "Okay." Under her bangs, a glint of malice was barely perceptible, cleverly hidden from view.
