Madeline was extremely helpless. The servants wouldn't offend Hazel even if Madeline egged them on. If she really wanted them to help her do something to Hazel, she'd have to threaten or cajole them, but right now, she was completely incapable of that.
Joshua and the others won the battle. They didn't go too far, either. They quit while they were ahead and sat down on the couch, following Ted.
However, when they saw that Madeline was also sitting on the side, their faces suddenly looked a little unhappy.
"Is the old man mad?" Simon couldn't help but whisper.
"He is not mad, but he can't find another woman who is better and more obedient," Joshua spoke lightly.
Simon suddenly understood.
Ted had promised Joshua, so Ted wouldn't break his promise and do anything to a woman in person, so he chose Madeline and used her like a sword. To be exact, because there was no better or more obedient sword than Madeline, he had to make do with this sword.
