“Madisyn, you’re incredible! I couldn’t be prouder of you!” Her mood lightened instantly, and she looked at Madisyn with a newfound admiration.

She had always recognized her daughter’s unique way of handling things, but only now did she fully appreciate just how capable Madisyn truly was.

She turned to Kristine, her smile carrying a hint of satisfaction.

“Well, Kristine, what do you think now?”

Kristine bit her lip, feeling a sting of embarrassment.

After a pause, she finally spoke, her voice tinged with regret.

“I’m sorry, Madisyn.

I didn’t realize you had everything so well thought out.

You’re really sharp, even I wouldn’t have come up with something Like that.

Madisyn’s response was calm and dismissive.

“You’ve got a lot to learn.

” Without Lingering on Kristine’s words, she turned to Elaine.

“Mom, shall we go home?”

“Of course,” Elaine replied warmly, Linking arms with Madisyn as they walked out together, leaving Kristine to reflect on the lesson she had just received.

Kristine bit her lip again and quietly trailed behind them.

The silence on the way back was heavy, and it didn’t escape Kristine’s notice that Elaine barely said a word to her.

It was clear that this time, Elaine was genuinely angry with her.

Who could have foreseen such a turn of events?

Her irritation simmered just below the surface.

Inwardly, she couldn’t help but blame Josie for her spectacular mishandling of the whole affair.

Upon their return, Madisyn went back to her room.

She indulged in a lengthy, steaming shower, and when she emerged rejuvenated, the situation on the internet had completely changed.

But much to her surprise, Denali’s scandal had seized the pinnacle of trending topics.

How did this happen?

While Denali’s actions were undoubtedly reprehensible, they hardly seemed the sort to ignite such widespread furor.

When Madisyn was lost in her reflections, the sharp trill of her phone cut through the silence, startling her.

“Are you back?” A deep, sexy voice resonated from the other end.

“Yes,” Madisyn replied, her curiosity ignited.

“You wouldn’t happen to be behind that explosive trending topic, would you?”

“Guilty as charged.

” Andrew’s deep, rich laughter rang out.

His voice always managed to stir something deep within Madisyn, sending a pleasant shiver through her.

“You’re relentless, catapulting it to the top spot.

Denali’s going to be hiding her face after this.

Indeed, Denali’s tumble from the public’s grace was more than mere local chitchat in Gemond-it had been known by the whole country.

“She brought it upon herself,” Andrew said with a cool detachment.
