Hilaria caught up to the director, pleading earnestly, "You've always looked out for Camila. If you ask her, I'm sure she'll listen."

The director, wise as he was, understood that it was best for Camila to handle this issue herself.

Even though Camila might forgive Hilaria, it was important for her to confront Hilaria personally.

"You need to deal with your own issues. You're not a child anymore.

Why can't you handle this on your own?" With those words, the director departed.

Left to her own thoughts, Hilaria realized that no one else's opinion mattered in this situation.

Sitting on a stone bench, she was engulfed in distress.

She recognized the importance of her job over personal matters, yet she couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

It was her doing, after all.

Camila was much younger, and Hilaria knew that apologizing would mean losing her seniority and facing awkwardness at work.

When Camila later met with the director, she revealed her intentions towards Hyman.

"I want him as my assistant."

The director was taken aback. "Well... Is this how you choose to punish him? Why keep someone who tried to harm you so close?" It didn't make sense to him.

Camila replied firmly, “This is a test for him."

"And then what?" the director inquired.

“If he truly has a good heart, like you believe, I'll overlook his past mistake this time. As long as he's diligent and contributes to our work, that will be his redemption."

The director inhaled deeply, his furrowed brows relaxing.

Initially, he had been concerned about the severity of Camila's punishment for Hyman.

But now, he felt reassured.

Despite her youth, Camila demonstrated maturity and effectiveness in handling Hyman's issue.
