Madeline was blindsided by the verbal lashing, her temper flaring. "What's your problem? I was just showing some concern, and you bit my head off? Fine, I'll just stop caring. And next time you're sick in bed with one of your headaches, don't expect me to play nurse!"
Fuming, Madeline spun on her heel to leave, but Imogen caught her arm. "Oh, honey, don't get mad at me. Alas, you just don't know the whole story. Do you even realize why Regina brought up Domingo? She's trying to get a rise out of me!"
"Domingo? What about him? Do you know this guy or something?" Madeline's frustration was evident, her impatience etched on her face. "Didn't you hear what Regina said, Mom? That man's bad news. Have you forgotten how we got into the Tanner family? Our past is dead and buried. Do you really want to go stirring up old ghosts? Think about it: do you want to jeopardize being Mrs. Tanner? If not for yourself, then think about me!"
Madeline paced anxiously. The last thing she wanted was for Imogen to reconnect with the shady characters from their old life. If Francis caught wind of it, they'd be out on their ears.
"What do you know anyway? Do you actually believe Regina's nonsense? That girl wouldn't know the truth if it bit her. She doesn't know the first thing about Domingo!"
Imogen's defense of another man set off alarm bells in Madeline's mind.
"Tell me the truth, who is this guy to you? Why are you protecting him?"
"I—I... Oh, it's grown-up stuff, sweetie. Just remember this – Domingo's not a bad guy, at least not to us. He's been good to us. Don't listen to that snake Regina."
