Chapter 795

Ashlyn was stunned, but she quickly recollected herself and replied, “Mr. Powell.”

Caleb could not hide his annoyance. “Lynnie, I'm your mentor. Yet, you've never addressed me properly, not even

once.”

Obviously, he was fighting for attention.

She glanced at him and snapped, “Stop messing around, Oldie.”

“Oldie? I'm at my prime age. Do you know how many young girls chase after me and dream about marrying me?”

he retorted.

“Kiddo, please remember to look for me whenever you need my help, okay?” Then, Nicholas looked at his watch

and realized that he had spent a great amount of time there. “I shall take my leave now as I've got something else

to take care of.” As the tycoon of the crude oil industry, every second was precious to him.

Although he could tell that Greg treasured the photo a lot, he selfishly wanted to keep it for himself. “I'll have this

photo. Mr. Maxwell, you're a director, aren't you?”

“Yes, my new movie Trashy Idol is now showing in H Nation. You can watch it at the cinema if you're interested, Mr.

Powell.” Greg's eyes were still fixated on the photo.

“Since you've given this photo to me as a gift, it goes unsaid that I should return the favor.” Nicholas smiled and

said, “My assistant will contact you to discuss this further. See you next time.”

After leaving that remark, he left with Caleb.

At that time, Greg did not take his words seriously. A world-renowned businessman wants to give a nobody like me a

present? How is that possible? Moreover, even though I refused to let him have the photo, he still took it away. How

domineering!

In the future, something happened that turned his life upside down, something that all the directors in H Nation

could only dream of. Never in a million years would Greg have thought such a thing would occur.

Meanwhile, there was not a single ray of light in the damp dark room, nor were there windows or ventilation.

Besides a metal gate that seemed to be permanently shut, there was also a pungent stench lingering in the air.

Mary was holding a shivering Penelope, who said, “Mom, I'm so scared.”

Though it was pitch black, the former remained tough. “What is there to be afraid of? It's just a dark room. Why are

you being a scaredy cat?”

Penelope was in tears. “Mom... I'm starving...” she said in between her sobs.

She barely ate anything at the banquet, and the dark and cold room made it worse. Her stomach was growling so

loudly.

I wonder what time it is now. What is going to happen to me if I'm locked inside here for days? Oh, and my face? I

just had a mesotherapy injection and masseter injection to make my skin youthful and my face skinnier. Am I going

to stay in this awful place for a few days and let it ruin my perfect skin? Oh no, I don't want that...

Tears rolled down her cheeks profusely. “Mom, when will Granny be willing to let us out?”

“She's not your granny! She's a wicked witch!” Mary retorted fiercely, “We are related by blood, yet she'd rather

treat Ashlyn, that b*tch, better than us!”

Penelope wiped her tears away and sat upright. “Granny is only deceived by Ashlyn momentarily. As long as she can

recall how good we've been to her, I'm sure she will let us out of here.”

“Hah...” Mary sneered, but Penelope could not see her mother's vicious expression in the dark. “No matter what,

we're the blood kin of a count. With that precious relationship as our trump card, she can't deny us our freedom.”

“Mom... Why does it feel like you loathe Granny?” The latter was taken by surprise.

“No way!” Mary quickly dismissed the claim.

Moments later, she stated, “If you feel tired, come lie down on my lap and take a rest. You're my only family in this

world, and we only have each other to lean on. Why do we lead such a hard life?”

“Mom...” Penelope could not help it and bawled her eyes out. Her mother's words made her feel even more

miserable.

It was already late at night, and Ashlyn was invited to Bianca's residence.
