Chapter 781

“Ashlyn Berry?” A spark appeared in Bianca's eyes when she heard Ashlyn's name. She raised her head and gazed

at the woman in front of her.

Shock flashed across her eyes.

She never expected Ashlyn to look that beautiful and elegant.

It didn't matter if it was the young woman's figure or demeanor, both were undoubtedly excellent.

The shock in the old woman's eyes was obvious to see.

Ashlyn stepped forward and smiled gracefully. “Happy birthday, Old Mrs. Yates. I hope you'll live a long and happy

life.”

When she smiled, it was as though the entire hall lit up.

She was like a star, forever being the center of everyone's attention wherever she went.

Penelope couldn't believe her eyes. Why is she here? Not only that, she was personally introduced by Uncle Ryan!

Mary's face was filled with jealousy and hate. Why is that b*tch here? How dare she come here to make a mess!

She doesn't belong here!

She and her daughter's expression looked terrifyingly wretched, as though they were going to eat people.

Bianca had heard too many bad things about Ashlyn before.

Thus, she thought Ashlyn was just a vulgar woman from the countryside, a country bumpkin who knew nothing of

good etiquette.

And yet, Ashlyn appeared so dignified that she completely outclassed Penelope.

For some reason that she didn't understand, Bianca felt the urge to cry.

Ashlyn was her ideal granddaughter in that Ashlyn was graceful, beautiful, and the perfect model of a true socialite.

Fate was cruel that way.

“Why are you here too, Ashlyn?” An old woman's voice rang out at the entrance.

As the crowd shifted their attention to the voice's owner, they spotted an old woman in a dark red outfit entering

the hall with a housekeeper.

That old woman was none other than Susan.

The moment Ashlyn saw her, a familial feeling surfaced in her heart. Just as she was about to greet the old woman,

Susan swiftly approached her as well.

“Grandma—”

Before she could say more, Susan cut her off unhappily. “How can you do this? Don't you know this is the Count's

Mansion and your aunt's home? Are you here to cause trouble again?”

“I'm not here to cause trouble.” Ashlyn was confounded by the old woman's words. Why is she saying that? I'm just

here to look for Old Mr. Yates!

Susan turned to Bianca apologetically. “I'm so sorry, Old Mrs. Yates. My granddaughter is very crude and doesn't

know anything about manners or rules. She was upset that I didn't bring her to attend your birthday banquet with

me and probably came here to cause trouble. Usually, she's very... There's no way to put it nicely. She's just very

disobedient.”

In just a few sentences, she planted the idea that Ashlyn was a vulgar, ill-mannered woman in people's minds.

Susan was there for a reason. Mary had promised her that if everything went smoothly, she would save Horace.

When Susan thought about her goals, she continued to make Ashlyn look worse.

She reprimanded Ashlyn in front of everyone seriously, “Did you follow me in secret? What are you trying to do?” It

was then she saw Greg, who was standing next to Ashlyn, and exclaimed, “You! This man sat next to me on my

plane here! He harassed me and insulted me! Look at what kind of friends she has.”

When Greg saw Susan, he initially thought they were quite lucky to be able to meet again.

Before he could even greet her, however, she took a huge dump on him.

He was equally flabbergasted and angry. Is she really saying that I, the director responsible for the highest-grossing

movie this year, the person who was just nominated for the best director award in the award show, harassed her, a

seventy-odd-year-old woman? Yeah, sure, maybe if my head had been kicked by a mule!

The guests in the hall were all notable in their own ways. Their initial amazement at Ashlyn swiftly transformed into

shock and contempt.

Not only that, they began looking at Greg with disdain, too.
