Chapter 1044
Chapter 1044 Just A Nobody
The entire social circle of Jadeborough was likely to mock the Oates family.
They're sick! They're seriously ill! The whole family has gone mad and foolish!
Finnick was on the verge of a breakdown as a raging fury surged within him. Trevor was absolutely deranged, and he shouldn't have given Trevor a chance in the first place.
How could such a young woman be compared to someone like Chloe, a nationally renowned professor? What kind of expert is she? A renowned doctor? I've never heard of such a young female renowned doctor!
At that moment, Penelope and Mary, who had been mingling in a crowd of people who were visiting patients, caught sight of Ashlyn. These two women had been going through a rough time lately in the Yates family. Ryan was investigating their backgrounds every day.
The entire Yates family felt the pressure, especially Bianca, who seemed to have taken Ryan's words to heart. She had given them the cold shoulder completely and displayed extreme indifference toward them. Ever since they had embarrassed themselves at the auction, they had been keeping a low profile, hiding away in their small corner of the Yates residence. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, they didn't dare to venture out. Ryan's suspicions about their identities had been growing by the day, as well as his interest in that “red jade” thing. It was just unbelievable. This time, as Nelson was ill and the Yates family was busy, they couldn't spare anyone to come over, so they assigned the two women to visit him internationally. However, just when they had arrived, this woman Ashlyn showed up. “Ashlyn?”
Penelope really didn't want to deal with Ashlyn, but in a situation like this, especially when everyone was questioning Ashlyn's skills, she couldn't resist stepping forward and rubbing salt into Ashlyn's wounds. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to sleep at night. So, in her heeled boots, she began striding toward Ashlyn. She was wearing a white woolen coat with a perfect cut. Paired with a sky blue dress inside, the outfit gave her a tender and pure look, as pure as white lilies.
She always liked to dress herself up as pure as she could, which perfectly matched her phony personality. After all, she also liked to pretend to be pure. Similar to those envoys who came from Maredania, the Oates family was very polite to these two ladies from the Yates family as well. Now, seeing Penelope actually calling Ashlyn by her name, everyone was somewhat surprised. After a while, Finnick said in a deep voice, “Ms. Berry, do you know this renowned doctor?” He deliberately emphasized the words “renowned doctor” with a strong tone of mockery.
Penelope chuckled. Even though she was wearing heeled boots, her height still couldn't compare to Ashlyn's dad sneakers. This made her desire to look down on Ashlyn lose some of its appeal. However, she still felt superior. “Although I didn't want to come, I had no choice... Ashlyn, my grandmother insisted that I come to visit Old Mr. Oates on her behalf.” After speaking, she looked at Finnick again.
“Mr. Oates, you may not know this. She used to be like a sister to me, but not anymore.” Her carefully made-up face with its originally flat features now had a touch of three-dimensionality due to the heavy makeup. “After all... I am now a socialite of the Yates family!” Wow! How boastful! Mary laughed along with Penelope when she heard her words. “Forgive us. When Ashlyn was with the the Berrys in the past, she was... Well, there's no need to say any further. Who would have thought that she has now become a renowned doctor? Hahaha... It's really...” As she spoke, she covered her mouth.
Ashlyn used to be quite famous in Lake City, but so what?
This is Jadeborough, which is much larger than Lake City. How could an ignorant brat like her even come to Jadeborough to treat patients here? She should take a good look at herself in the mirror. Did she think everywhere is similar to that small Lake City? Moreover, Chloe is a respected expert and renowned professor in Jadeborough. Who is Ashlyn? Just a nobody!
Mary's half-spoken, half-unsaid attitude immediately led people to easily associate Ashlyn with garbage.
