Chapter 218:

Evie finally found a way to handle her big brother. For the next two days, Madisyn stayed home, spending quality time with her mother. On the third day, it was time for her to go.

Her family accompanied her to the airport, where Elaine held onto Madisyn’s hand, reluctant to let go. “Madisyn, take care of yourself out there. Give it your all, but if things get too tough, don’t hesitate to come home. Your father has enough money to support you comfortably for a lifetime.”

Glenn nodded in agreement. “That’s right, Madisyn. Don’t overextend yourself.”

Madisyn smiled, touched by their concern. “I promise, Mom and Dad, I’ll take care of myself and won’t overwork.”

Dane, standing nearby, added with a serious tone, “Ansport is a big city with its complexities. Keep your wits about you.”

“I will, Dane,” Madisyn replied confidently.

“The Johns Group has a solid branch there. If you run into any issues, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’ll be there soon myself.”

Madisyn gave a grateful nod, just as her phone began to ring.

She glanced at the screen—it was Waylon calling. She answered it.

On the screen appeared Waylon’s handsome face, though his usual charm was shadowed by guilt. “Madisyn, I’m so sorry I can’t be there to see you off. I feel like such a lousy brother.”

Dane, nearby, couldn’t resist a quip. “Well, at least you’re aware of it.”

Waylon, unfazed, quickly added, “Madisyn, to make it up to you, I’ll give you every penny I earn this time.” Dane’s expression tightened, a hint of irritation flashing across his face. Waylon always had a way of trying to steal the spotlight.

Madisyn couldn’t help but smile. Waylon was just too lovable, and she completely understood where he was coming from. “Waylon, it’s fine. You chasing your dreams is what really makes you shine.”

“Madisyn…” Waylon was caught off guard by her words. Since he’d entered the entertainment industry, no one had ever said anything like that to him. It was so good to have a little sister.

“Madisyn, I love you,” Waylon said, his voice thick with emotion, genuinely moved by Madisyn’s kindness. He was determined to earn plenty of money for his sister to enjoy.

Madisyn waved with a teasing smile. “Waylon, don’t get all teary-eyed, or you’ll ruin your handsome look. I’ve got to board now. Bye.”

“Alright, bye,” Waylon responded, his voice laced with affection.

After ending the call, Madisyn waved goodbye to her family and headed into the airport.

Elaine watched her until she disappeared from sight, then her face lit up with excitement. She turned to Glenn with a knowing smile. “Do you think Madisyn will be surprised when she replaces out about the big surprise?”

“She’ll be thrilled!” Glenn said, matching her enthusiasm. Dane, watching his parents, couldn’t help but shake his head with an amused smile.

Once on the plane, Madisyn settled into her first-class seat, ready to close her eyes and relax. But just as she was about to drift off, she heard a voice. “Hey.”

Madisyn opened her eyes to replace a petite woman standing before her, exuding an air of arrogance. “Could you please switch seats with me? I need to sit here to take care of Tatiana.”

Tatiana?

The name rang a bell. Madisyn glanced over and realized that the person resting beside her, wearing an eye mask, was indeed Tatiana.

When Madisyn didn’t immediately respond, the woman took her silence as compliance and began to nudge her.

“Move to the economy class. I’ll cover the difference.”

The push was abrupt and rude, leaving Madisyn taken aback by the woman’s lack of manners.

Madisyn was never one to tolerate rudeness. She swatted the woman’s hand away and said firmly, “Not happening.”

The woman’s eyes widened in disbelief, and Tatiana, overhearing the exchange, spoke up from behind her eye mask. “I’ll pay double for the seat.”

The woman crossed her arms, fully expecting Madisyn to relent. Double the price was a generous offer.

But Madisyn simply scoffed, her tone cool. “How about I pay double for you to replace another seat so I can rest in peace? Deal?”

The woman was taken aback by Madisyn’s audacity, and even Tatiana was caught off guard. She removed her eye mask to see who dared to be so bold, only to replace herself face-to-face with Madisyn, the same person who had embarrassed her before.

Tatiana hadn’t anticipated running into her again. “It’s you?” Tatiana said, irritation creeping into her voice. “What a small world. Fine, I’ll pay you ten times the price. How about that?”

Ten times the offer—surely no one could refuse that.

But Madisyn didn’t blink. “A thousand times?”

Tatiana’s face darkened, and her assistant, unable to hold back, snapped, “Don’t be so ungrateful. Offering ten times is more than generous.”

Madisyn sneered. “If you can’t afford it, don’t pretend you can. I’m not interested in your spare change.” Without missing a beat, she said to the flight attendant, “Please escort this non-first-class passenger out.”

The flight attendant quickly complied, escorting the assistant away.

Tatiana watched, her expression souring. She then looked back at Madisyn. “Who exactly are you?”

Madisyn ignored the question, closing her eyes to continue resting.

Tatiana stared at her for a moment longer before reluctantly looking away and closing her own eyes.

When Madisyn woke up, the plane had landed in Ansport. The afternoon was warm as Madisyn pulled her luggage behind her, stepping out of the airport and looking for a taxi.

“Oh wow, who is that? He’s so handsome.”

“Seriously, he looks like a celebrity!”

Excited murmurs buzzed around Madisyn, but she paid them no mind. To her, no one was more handsome than her boyfriend.

“Is that his girlfriend?”

“They really make a stunning couple.”

As the whispers continued, Madisyn suddenly felt a hand gently ruffle her hair. She looked up, only to be met with those deep, captivating eyes she knew so well.
