After confidently throwing out those words, He assumed that Xylia had come for him.
The previous episode was merely a minor distraction. The main focus remained on evaluating the new pharmaceutical product. However, with Xylia’s arrival, the crowd instinctively distanced themselves, conveniently allowing her to find a quiet place to sit.
Under the watchful eyes of the audience, Jayden took out the new drug and began his
presentation.
“This formulation targets various dermatological conditions and has strong anti–inflammatory and healing properties. The formula contains a rich blend of calcium powder, kaolin clay, amber extract, and zinc oxide. Additionally, we’ve incorporated a special component–Celestial Leaf. Here, we have medical records from 50 volunteers documenting the treatment process. If you have any questions or see any potential issues, feel free to raise them.”
“Impressive.” The doctors in attendance nodded in approval. “Mr. Castro has once again presented an excellent pharmaceutical product after several years. The future looks promising
Only Xylia frowned slightly at the mention of Celestial Leaf and loudly questioned, “Mr. Castro, while Celestial Leaf does have strong anti–inflammatory properties, I previously treated a unique case where a patient had a mild allergic reaction. A holistic medicine practitioner prescribed this herb, which led to full–body necrosis. The patient was barely saved and had to undergo a full–body skin graft. I can retrieve the patient’s medical records for you–it might help refine the formula.”
The room was filled with chatter, but Xylia’s clear and loud voice ensured everyone heard her.
“Is that true? I’ve never heard of such a case before.”
“Does she even know what she’s talking about? She’s so young–would she even be capable of performing a full–body skin graft?”
Xylia patiently explained, “At the time, the situation was urgent. The patient’s family consented to the procedure. Brighton Central Hospital has the necessary technology, so we didn’t need to request help from another institution.”
“Who was the attending physician? It couldn’t have been you, could it?” The same male doctor who had insulted Xylia earlier sneered.
“I was the attending physician then,” Xylia replied expressionlessly. “I am currently the chief dermatologist at our hospital”
“Are you serious? Someone that young can be a doctor Why haven’t we heard of you before?”
The crowd exchanged doubtful glances, clearly skeptical.
Some of the middle–aged female doctors spoke up in her defense. “You can’t judge a person’s medical skills based on age alone.”
However, a middle–aged male doctor scoffed, “Everyone here today has decades of experience. She clearly got in through connections!”
Xylia remained patient. “I was still an intern back then officially became a full–time doctor last year. It

danger, and no other doctors could make it in time. I had to take the risk, and that’s why the hospital director entrusted me with greater responsibilities.”
“Hah! Keep bragging! Lies upon lies. A full–body skin graft Doctors with ten years of experience wouldn’t be completely confident in such a procedure. And she, newly promoted doctor, pulled it off?“.
Jayden’s expression darkened as he stared at her coldly
“Nylia, get out!” he snapped.
Welia’s voice remamed icy. “Why should 1“.
Jayden’s face was grim. “If it weren’t for my family pulling strings for you, how could a disgraced young lady like you have gotten into the Brighton Central Hospital?”
The audience erupted in gasps, their gazes toward Xylia filled with disdain.
“So she got in through connections. That explains it. I remember hearing about some rich girl forcing her way into a hospital as a doctor–she ended up killing a pregnant woman.”
“Kick her out! I knew something felt off about her being here.”
Nelia had just retrieved the patient’s electronic medical records and sent them to Shadow–I and Shadow–2 to make copies. Hearing the crowd’s escalating ridicule, she coldly defended herself.
“I entered the hospital on my own merit. I never relied on anyone.”
Jayden impatiently called for security. Throw her out! And never let her step foot in this institute again. Don’t worry: I’ll inform the hospital director that she came here just to pursue me. I’m sorry for the disturbance.
“Mr. Castro is young and successful. Of course, he has admirers”
“Haha, I heard his wife is also his assistant–she got into the research institute on her own merit. So admirable.”
“Yes, I met her before at an international seminar. She knows so many technical terms. Truly impressive.”
Jayden smirked. “Indeed, only a well–rounded talent like my assistant deserves to be with me. Someone like Xylia, who got in through connections, isn’t even worth a glance.”
“Hahaha, it’s normal for celebrities to have their fair share of scandals.
Just as the security guards moved to seize Xylia, Shadow–1 and Shadow–2 pinned them down effortlessly.
“How did you get in?” Jayden was stunned. He had been beaten up by these two before and still had Ingering trauma.
“Ma’am, here are the copies you requested, Shadow–1 reported.
Xylia blinked in surprise at their sudden appearance bu quickly realized that Sebastian, as the wealthiest man in the country, naturally had connections everywhere. Conveniently, this solved her inmediate. problem.
“You don’t believe me? Fine. Here are the patient’s complete medical records. Those with medical

Even those who weren’t interested were compelled to pick up a page for a glance.
Once they started reading, they were hooked. The room fell into complete silence.

Jayden had been busy calling for more security, but by the time he returned, the doctors had already read through most of the files. Their gazes toward Xylia had changed.
vha get out!” Jayden shouted, veins bulging in frustration as he reached out to grab her himself.
Predictably, Shadow–1 seized his arm before he could touch her.
pl A scorching slap landed on Jayden’s face.
Xyla you dare hit me?” He stared at her in disbelief, his eyes burning with fury. “What are you all waiting for? Grab her.”
No need. We’ll leaye on our own.” Xylia’s voice was firm “Even if you begged me later, I wouldn’t set foot.

“Me, beg you? In your dreams!” Jayden scoffed.

shook her head. “If you’re the best among the younger generation at the Drakoria Research Institute. the future looks bleak.”
She turned to leave but added. “And for the record, I earned my place at the Brighton Central Hospital through my own abilities. Your family had nothing to do with it.”
With that, she walked away with Shadow–1 and Shadow 2
Some onlookers hesitated before murmuring, “Maybe we should ask her to return.”
“No need,” Jayden dismissed the idea. “She was just spouting nonsense. Don’t let her distract us.”
“Are you sure? But these records have Brighton Central Hospital’s official seal, and…
The commotion was loud enough to draw the attention of the research institute’s director, Graham Radcliffe, who had originally planned to delegate responsibilities. He hurried toward the conference
“What’s going on here?”
Sering Graham’s arrival, Jayden felt a drop of cold sweat on his forehead. He dreaded the possibility of today’s event turning into a disaster. He quickly tried reassuring the director, “Just an intruder causing trouble. I already had her removed, so the seminar was not disrupted.”
“Good” Graham nodded, then glanced down at the scattered papers near the doorway. Bending over, he picked one up and took a look.
