Shi Hua was initially dazed by the sudden assault, but her senses quickly sharpened into rage, ready to strike back.
“It’s all your fault! All of this is because of you! You must have instigated Ethan to strike me off and even get me blacklisted
internationally forever!” Shi Hua struggled against Madison, her voice rising into a shout.
Madison wasn’t really listening to her ramblings; her emotions had completely overrun her reason.
The pent-up feelings from being oppressed upon entering the aviation field, the absurd marriage with Lucas, the hardships upon rejoining the workforce, and now Shi Hua’s audacity, all these had inflated Madison’s balloon of tolerance to its breaking point.
She had ceased to consider the consequences. The only thought driving her was to utterly dismantle those who had ceaseless ried to bully her.
“Slap!”
The sound of the slap made the three onlookers wince as if they had
been hit themselves.
Shi Hua’s uniform was torn and tattered in the scuffle.
The fight moved into the bathroom, where Madison, with lightning- fast reflexes, turned on the tap and shoved Shi Hua’s head under the gushing water.
Shi Hua fought desperately, coughing out, “… Meng…”
But Madison, engulfed in wrath, was devoid of any sanity to cease her
actions.
Water soaked through their clothes, and Madison’s eyes held a tranquil madness, “Always thinking of bullying me?”
“Because you’ve been in the industry longer, do you think you’re forever superior to me?”
“We have nothing to do with each other, but from the moment we first met, you’ve been targeting me, setting traps. From creating public opinion against me, bribing the media to paint me as the other woman, to your underhanded schemes and attempts to cyberbully me. Now that your plots have failed, you decide to confront me directly?”
“Where do you get your audacity from?”
Madison’s gaze turned a fearsome scarlet, utterly terrifying as she fiercely gripped Shi Hua’s neck, pinning her against the sink with murderous intent in her eyes.
“Shi Hua, it’s not that I don’t know how to bully people with power Do you honestly think you could compete with me, given your background?”
Shi Hua managed to break free and stumbled backward onto the floor, utterly disheveled. She looked up at Madison, who now stood a stark contrast to the meek lamb she had always been.
She began to laugh slowly, “I knew it! You’re not as gentle as you seem on the surface. All that gentleness is just a facade! Look everyone, her true face is revealed!”
“Madison, do you really think Ethan loves you?”
Shi Hua pulled herself up, holding onto the sink, her cheek swollen but ther smile carrying a trace of triumph, “What could he possibly love about you? A person’s choice is always based on reason. Either it’s emotional comfort you can offer or physical attraction. Or maybe…”

It echoed the question Madison had once obsessively asked Ethan: what did he like about her?
What was there to like?
Nothing at all.
Why had Ethan chosen her, of all people?
Truth be told, those well-bred ladies, daughters of prominent families, were all more suited to be a wife than she ever could be.
Was she being used?
But another part of Madison’s rational mind told her: Don’t let a villain’s words doubt someone’s kindness towards you. What if it’s not true? Wouldn’t that hurt an innocent person’s heart?
Yet, another thread of long-buried reason in Madison’s heart whispered-
But he indeed does not have a solid reason to explain why he must be with Madison, does he? Could it really be love at first sight?
For the wealthy, how likely is love at first sight?
Or perhaps Madison’s outstanding talent and capabilities?
If so, then it’s utilitarian.
Realistically, what are the odds that a wealthy and powerful individual would choose a divorced woman to be a trophy wife?
These thoughts nearly made Madison falter.
Her mind was a messy clatter, giving her a headache.
Suddenly, Madison realized that in today’s society, the label ‘divorced’ could overshadow a person’s brilliance.
No matter how accomplished you are, this label would invariably diminish your value in the eyes of others.
This was the harsh reality of the world they lived in.
No one could change the heavy weight of this societal prejudice.
But why should it be so?
Divorce was not her choice; she was the victim.
Yet Lucas lived a life of glory, free to marry a fresh-faced girl while
she had to bear the brunt of his disgusting actions.
The world was too unjust for women, be it in regular life, the
workplace, or the broader societal direction.
“Madison, are you okay?” Charlie, having moistened a towel, knelt before her, gently wiping her face.
Madison slowly came back to her senses, shaking her head faintly, I’m sorry I scared you all. And for interrupting your rest.”
