That was her name?

Madisyn decided Howard should first help the woman get an ID card.

After Howard departed, Madisyn typed away at her computer, and the display shifted.

Ten minutes later, the information on the woman appeared on her screen.

It was utterly empty!

Suddenly, her phone rang.

“Sweetheart, it’s noon.

Have you eaten?” Andrew’s deep, soothing voice came.

Madisyn often missed meals, prompting Andrew to check on her regularly.

“I’ll eat later.

Howard brought a woman over today,” Madisyn said softly.

Andrew replied, “I heard.

He almost ran into her.

What’s up? Something seems off?”

“Do you think so too?” Madisyn asked.

“I do replace it odd, but I haven’t been able to dig up anything,”

Andrew responded calmly.

Given that this involved Madisyn’s brother, and Howard was known for his integrity, Andrew felt it was his duty to help out.

He then inquired, “Have you looked into it as well?”

“Yes, but I came up empty too,” Madisyn said with a frown.

“I have this nagging feeling that something isn’t right, but… if there’s no evidence, then it must be okay, right?”

“Now that the woman is with your company, you’ll be the first to know if anything unusual happens,” Andrew said with some comfort.

“Yeah, you’re right.

I hope I’m just overthinking it,” Madisyn said.

“Make sure to eat something,” Andrew reminded her softly.

“I’ll do that now,” Madisyn replied, smiling.

After she finished lunch, Howard returned with the woman, now named Milly Duncan.

Milly easily completed her onboarding process and joined the company.

Madisyn observed as Howard leaned over to Milly, saying, “Call me if you need anything, okay?”

Milly nodded, looking utterly obedient.

Madisyn bit her lip and glanced back at her computer, her thoughts lingering on Howard’s naivety.

She silently hoped Milly didn’t harbor any hidden agendas.

If Milly turned out to be ungrateful like Tatiana, Madisyn wouldn’t let her off easily.
