"A celebrity doctor. You're truly one of a kind, Ms. Vance."
The relentless wave of flattery made it feel like Seraphina's personal fan convention.
But Raelynn knew the truth: they weren't sucking up to Seraphina.
They were bowing to Sebastian, her powerful protector.
"I heard you were deeply involved in the drug development project between NexusMind and Kingsford University," someone noted.
Seraphina shot a fleeting glance at Raelynn. "Yes, I handled a massive portion of it. Around eighty percent, I'd say."
"Then why did you step down at the last minute? The credit for a project of this magnitude is incredibly prestigious."
Seraphina paused, pressing her lips together before answering, "I had personal plans. I have other R&D projects right now and simply couldn't be in two places at once. To me, empty titles and credits aren't what matters. All I care about is ensuring patients get the best possible medication."
Instantly, the surrounding crowd stared at her with deep reverence.
Showering her with endless praise.
Sebastian remained silent through the exchange, but his expression was noticeably relaxed.
When Raelynn glanced his way, he happened to turn in her direction, a faint trace of a satisfied smile lingering on his lips.
She understood it immediately: no man was immune to the ego boost of having a beautiful, widely worshipped partner.
Sometimes, Raelynn had to admit she was impressed. It was no wonder Seraphina thrived on television—her ability to spin her own PR was masterful.
First, she claimed all the glory. Then, she pretended to be above the fame.
She was practically a modern-day saint.
"It's always the people who have nothing that fight the hardest. Hoarding a front-row seat like a stubborn mule doesn't change a thing. They're lightyears behind Ms. Vance's level of class."
Raelynn felt the judgmental glares shifting to her.
The thinly veiled insult was unmistakable.
