Madeline left the hospital while ignoring everyone, including Nurse Dalton, who asked if everything was alright.
She wasn't in the mood or in the mental capacity to be nice in front of anyone because, at this point, she might actually break down in tears again.
It had been a while since she fought with her mother. The last fight they had was when Madeline announced her relationship with Jonathan Hale to her family.
Her mother rejected the idea, and they had a huge fight that made them resent each other until the affair broke out, and Madeline finally apologized to her mother.
'But Jon and Lance are different. Lance genuinely wants to build a relationship with me, to start anew as a lover,' Madeline insisted in her heart, dispelling her doubts about Lance.
But at the same time, she also knew that her mother's blessing was everything. She needed her blessing, or else marrying Lance would have been impossible.
