Chapter 783
“Doctor? That's a great profession.” Bianca nodded in approval.
Bianca was not a credulous person who would be easily influenced by others.
She would assess a person's character based on her judgment.
At first, Ashlyn did not leave a positive impression on Bianca, but the latter felt she could bond with Ashlyn after
seeing her in person.
On the contrary, Bianca did not feel the same way about Mary and her daughter.
She could not describe her feelings for Ashlyn, but somehow, she wanted to know more about this young lady.
Penelope could not help but feel jealous upon noticing how Bianca sided with Ashlyn. The elderly woman's reaction
caused an inexplicable panic in her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBianca had always treated Penelope well and took good care of her, but she seemed to always distance herself
from Penelope.
The elderly lady, too, seldom praised her from the bottom of her heart. Yet, the way she praised Ashlyn seemed
genuine. Ashlyn, you b*tch! Why do you have to compete with me even when I'm in Maredania? She's my granny!
Don't you try to get in her good books!
Penelope gritted her teeth, but she still plastered a smile on her face. “Granny, do you know she was publicly
humiliated by her patient's family before?”
“Ignore them. I'm sure there'll always be uncivilized people who would intentionally cause ruckuses in the
hospitals.”
Bianca smiled and looked at the elegant Ashlyn. “Are you single?”
She felt Ashlyn was a good match for Ryan.
Ashlyn froze for a moment. She used to hear her colleagues in the hospital talk about how the elders in their family
would ask them about their relationship status during gatherings.
However, that had never happened to her before because she did not have many relatives in her family.
Besides her grandmother, no one had ever asked her this question so affectionately.
The way Bianca asked the question warmed Ashlyn’s heart even though she could not quite describe the feeling.
Penelope looked at Bianca in disbelief. All this while, she had always thought Bianca was difficult to get along with
because she had never seen the elderly woman being so approachable to someone since the day she joined the
Yates family.
Mary, too, trembled with fury, but she managed to regain her composure. “Mom, I bet you don't know Ashlyn
married someone from the Nolan family. When she was secretly married, she had quite a number of suitors. She
used to be very close with Mr. Zebriele, the president of Zebriele Group—oh, and also Director Maxwell! They even
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmworked on a film together, and he's her date today too.”
“When Ashlyn was still in high school, many male students wrote her love letters. I was always worried about her
because she often came home late,” Susan said with a sigh as if she was concerned about Ashlyn.
Mary and Susan were trying to portray Ashlyn as a promiscuous woman.
Upon hearing the accusation, Ashlyn maintained the perfect smile on her fair face. She sized the two women up
and said, “Do you think the Nolan family would accept me if I'm that kind of woman? Instead of defaming me here
in public, why don't you two spend time improving yourselves to become more cultured people?”
Ashlyn retaliated aptly while looking at Mary and Susan.
Mary clenched her teeth. “Don't get me wrong, Ashlyn. I just want all the guests to know how gorgeous you are.”
“I believe everyone can assess my looks with their own eyes without you telling them,” Ashlyn refuted elegantly.
She then looked in Greg's direction. “This is Mr. Greg Maxwell, the director of Trashy Idol, a film I've invested in. He's
a brilliant director, so feel free to reach out if you wish to collaborate with him.”
Ashlyn appeared unruffled when she introduced Greg to all the guests.
Compared to Penelope, who came from the Count's family, Ashlyn looked more like a sophisticated socialite who
had charmed the crowd with her beauty and demeanor.
