One by one, everyone left, leaving only Bryson by her side.
“Bryson, | didn’t push Madeline,” she choked out, trying to hold back her sobs.
“I know,” Bryson replied softly. “Let's head home.”
He knew his sister well enough to dismiss Sharon’s accusations outright. Seeing Joanna so distressed, he felt
deep sympathy for her. His sister should not have to endure such defamation.
Joanna's heart raced with fear. The thought haunted her—if Madeline had lost her baby, she would be branded a
murderer. She gripped Bryson'’s hand tightly, trying to control her anxiety. She was innocent; this was not her
fault.
Yet, the image of Madeline falling down the stairs remained vivid in her mind. She recalled possibly touching
Madeline's back in a moment of panic. Her body shook with the memory. This fear had kept her from confronting
Sharon.

Phillip immediately apologized, “Mr. Singh, I'm sorry.”
“Phillip, why are you apologizing? It’s not your fault.”
Jaxson ignored Phillip’s words and turned to Sean, nudging him with his shoulder.
“Sean, I've been hearing rumors since | returned to Glophia. You're actually dating someone. Why didn’t you
mention it?”
Phillips heart skipped a beat, sensing his growing anxiety. Sean was still upset with Norah—this was an awkward
topic for Jaxson to bring up.
“We're having a disagreement,” Sean replied, his response short and sharp.
Jaxson looked surprised. “She dared to argue with you? You're the mighty Sean Scott.”
