"I owe you an apology," Carol said after a sigh.
"Apologies for what?"
"I went to Ethan and made quite a scene. I thought your presence here was because of an affair between you two."
Madisyn swallowed hard, a wave of dread washing over her. Her face paled.
"But he explained that he hired you because you needed a job, and he just wanted to help considering what his brother did to you."
Madisyn let out a sigh of relief. "Yeah, I needed a job, and he came to my rescue. I'm still trying to settle in, though."
"I'm sure you'll make it. It's going to be tough at first. This is a very competitive environment. It can be stressful and demanding, but I'm confident you'll get far."
Madisyn offered Carol a small smile of appreciation. Her words felt sincere, warming Madisyn's heart. "Thank you."
