"Are you reluctant to leave the family?"

"It's not so easy for me to just leave right now, since I have been living in this family for four years. For all these years, Mrs. Chambers has always been treating me as her own daughter, and if she ever sees those pictures, she will definitely feel hurt and be disappointed, which I could never bear to see."

Madeleine, without saying anything, took Ophelia's hand in her clasp. She knew that what Ophelia valued most was the love between families, and that she was exactly the so-called "good-mannered child" in those elders mouths. Also, giving that Mrs. Chambers had long been treating her as her own kid, it would be clear enough for anyone to see the impacts of those pictures exerted on Ophelia.

The anger for Gracie was arouse deep within Madeleine. As a girl from an upper class family, it was ridiculous for Gracie, who had sent people following behind Ophelia and Tassach and taking specious photos of the two, which caused great damage to the bond between Ophelia and Zachariah.

There was an old saying that to destroy a temple was much better than to separate a couple, while it seemed that it didn't win Gracie's recognition. This time, Madeleine swore she must do something to fight back for her friend.

For Ophelia, she tended to try peaceful means to her enemies before resorting to force, while for Madeleine, she chose to act in contravention. Giving that Gracie was such an ignorant and insidious woman, Madeleine was going to teach her a lesson that she shouldn't have ever bullied Ophelia on her family's coat-tails.

"Take it easy, my dear. Mrs. Chambers will understand you, since she is such a loving and moderate lady." Madeleine comforted.

"I hope so."

"Take some rest, and I will wake you up by the noon."
