Chapter 758

The tall, middle-aged man's eyes were glowing with kindness and serenity when he looked at the beautiful lady.

“Well then, I'm going back to Maredania, Lynnie. Call me if you need anything.”

“Oh, just leave already. Stop being such a sap,” complained Ashlyn as she shoved a gift to him. The gift was placed

inside an ordinary box, so it felt as though there was nothing special about it. “Here, take this. You'll like them.”

Caleb could not help but shoot a sweet smile, and anyone could tell he was genuinely happy.

I guess she never changes. She's still someone who can't say anything nice, but her action always shows how much

she cares.

Hugging the gift, he uttered, “Okay, until next time, then.”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

It was not until his figure could no longer be seen in the airport's VIP walkway that she turned around, ready to

leave.

Just then, she heard Penelope's voice. “Ashlyn!”

Ashlyn arched her brows and halted her steps. Up ahead, she saw Penelope and Mary standing there.

My gosh, how could I bump into them when I'm merely here to see someone off?

Ashlyn was truly fed up with her fate and bad luck.

“What?”

“Because of you, my mom and I are embarrassed, but don't you gloat. I will tell my granny about this once I reach

Maredania, and she will definitely get justice for both of us. She is a countess and is someone you will never get to

meet. Women like you are from a lower class, and you will never be equal to me. I am the true socialite.”

Ashlyn looked at Penelope as though the latter was a lunatic. “Are you done?” she asked.

Penelope was stunned. “Yes...”

“Then shut up. Listen up, woman. I am not interested in your social circles and am even less intrigued about that

granny of yours. I won't bother meeting her, not even when I'm ridiculously bored. Even if she extends an invitation

to me, I still won't go.”

After saying all that, Ashlyn turned around and left with her head held high.

It did not matter that all that could be seen was her back. She still inspired fear and exuded a regal aura.

At the time, neither realized that was actually the case.

There would come a day when Penelope's grandmother extended countless invitations, but Ashlyn would still refuse

to meet up.

“Ignore her. Let's go. She was probably just putting on an act. There's a good chance she's secretly envious of us,”

said Mary as she tugged at Penelope. “Good job earlier. Your words were very powerful.”

“Mom...” murmured Penelope. She rarely received any compliments from her mother, so she could not help but

feel a little excited.

“Okay, let's go now.”

With that, the mother-daughter duo fished out their air tickets and got ready to board the plane.

Everything was ready, so they boarded the plane soon after.

Ryan was kind to them as he bought them first-class tickets.

When the two of them got onto the plane, they saw Caleb sitting a short distance away in the seat right next to the

window. Both ladies grinned, and their eyes glowed simultaneously.

Mary, in particular, was excited.

She had heard rumors of how Caleb was the most desirable bachelor in his age group. He had never gotten

married. If I can marry him, I will be the wife of the president of the Piano Association.

Those thoughts prompted her to pretend to be shy and deliberately dropped her handkerchief at the side of his

foot. She made it look as though it was just an accident.

Surprised, Caleb picked up the handkerchief and returned it to Mary elegantly. “Your handkerchief, ma'am.”

“Thank you, Mr. Powell,” replied Mary. She acted as if she was surprised. “I never thought I'd run into you on the

airplane. Are you heading back to Maredania as well?”

Somewhat recognizing her voice, Caleb lifted his head and saw Mary there. Wait, isn't that the old woman who

bullied Lynnie? Ugh, she's so disgusting. How unlucky do I have to be to run into her here?

Despite his thoughts, he nodded at her politely.

He did not say anything, but Mary was too excited to notice his stoicism and lack of enthusiasm.

Hence, she continued, “My mother gave me this handkerchief. The renowned tailor, Leslie Winters, designed and

handcrafted it. See that plum blossom there? It's—”

“Is it as good as the handkerchiefs I have with me?” Caleb cut off before he retrieved the box he had with him.

Mary's initial intention was to share how noble her family was, so she was confused when she saw the box that

looked rather ordinary.
