Babette eventually abandoned medecine to concentrate on her highly-successful and very profitable fashion house, now managed by her friend Marie-Chantal du Bourbonnais de la Periere. During that time, she secretly crafted the secret identity of the male-looking supervillain known as Alpha and used it to take over Phantom.
