A week later, Xaviera and Caleb were discharged from the hospital and returned to the Lowen Clubhouse.
Sam and Lucy had cleaned up the Clubhouse inside and out, and had made many delicious dishes to celebrate their safe return.
When the people of Libanan heard that Mrs. Mamet was back, they all tried to please Caleb under the pretext of visiting, but Sam turned them all away. However, there was one person Sam couldn't decide about.
"Madame, Madame Hughes called and said she wants to visit you."
"Ruby Russell?"
"Yes, she called personally and sent someone with an invitation. After all, she is Madam Hughes, so I didn't refuse outright, but I said it depends on your recovery."
Actually, Sam didn't want her to go, because even a fool could see that Madam Hughes had no good intentions.
Unexpectedly, Xaviera smiled and said, "Since Madam Hughes has invited me so sincerely, of course, I have to see her!"
Sam was a little surprised but still made the call according to her wishes.
