Chapter 1045:
Yet, when things seemed beyond repair, it was Ailyn who stepped forward, offered her apologies, and slowly turned the situation around, leading to a successful outcome.
One of the elders spoke up. âAilyn, the journey to Lorpond to find Dr. Mia wasnât easy, but you did well. What matters now is your fatherâs health. Dr. Mia may be young, but her composure speaks volumes. We hope youâll learn from this experience and continue to represent the Vettel family with distinction.â
Ailyn met his gaze and nodded solemnly. âI understand. From now on, my focus will be entirely on my fatherâs recovery.â
The elder nodded approvingly. âThatâs the right mindset.â
They returned to the hotel, where Ailyn reported the current situation to the family and ensured everything was in order.
When everything was settled, Ailyn walked into her bathroom. She stood at the sink, staring into the mirror. The reflection staring back at her was haunting. Her face, normally flawless, bore angry red marks from her self-inflicted slaps. They were stark against her pale skin.
The medicine Nathan had brought still lay untouched on the table. Ailyn hadnât bothered to apply it. She wanted to keep the marks as a reminder of the consequences of her impulsive actions.
âMadisyn,â Ailyn whispered softly.
Madisyn was no less capable than her, yet Madisyn was more understated in her approach. Ailyn, who always prided herself on being superior to her peers, found her self-assessment shaken after encountering Madisyn.

Behind Ailyn, Nathan maintained his silence. Turning to him, she asked, âHow do you think I compare to Madisyn?â Nathan seemed reluctant to answer.
The contrast in Madisynâs demeanor before and after her identity as Dr. Mia was revealed was striking. After it was revealed, it didnât bring any relief; instead, it made oneâs heart race. Instinctively, he felt an intangible sense of dread.
Ailynâs eyes remained fixed on Nathan, anticipating his response.
After a moment, he said, âMiss Vettel, honestly, after Dr. Mia cures your father, if I were you, Iâd avoid any further dealings with her.â
Silence once again enveloped the room. Moments later, Ailyn turned away from the mirror, looked at Nathan, and said, âYou see, thatâs why you can only be my subordinate. Dr. Mia possesses extensive influence that could yield endless benefits if properly leveraged. Now, please assist me with this ointment.â
âCertainly.â
Outside a restaurant, a Rolls-Royce came to a halt, and Madisyn, alongside Andrew, stepped out of the car. Feeling quite hungry after the negotiations, Madisyn was looking forward to a satisfying meal.
Seated at their table, as dish after dish was served, Andrew turned to Madisyn and said, âThis time, when you head to Mafelen, Iâm coming along.â
