Chapter 793
“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 thetter 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
youngdy.
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.
Bianca had always treated Penelope well and took good care of her, but she seemed to always
distance herself from Penelope.
The elderlydy, 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 topete 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 stered 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 rtionship status during gatherings.
However, that had never happened to her before because she did not have many rtives 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 herposure. “Mom, I bet you don’t know
Ashlyn married someone from the Nn 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 worked 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 homete,” 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 usation, Ashlyn maintained the perfect smile on her fair face. She sized the two
women up and said, “Do you think the Nn family would ept 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 be 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 coborate 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.
