Dixon didn’t bother standing up to greet the Berrys upon seeing them.
He sat with his long legs crossed and shot a wicked glance at Ashlyn.
“I see that Dr. Berry is here too.”
Ashlyn nodded. “Hi, Mr. Haddock.”
With a flattering smile, Horace quickly went up to Dixon. “Mr. Haddock, I’ve brought Ashlyn here. About
what you’d promised me…”
“Don’t worry. I know what to do…” he said impatiently.
Ashlyn could not help but scowl at the sight of her father’s loathsome face. Then she turned to Dixon
and said, “Mr. Haddock, what’s your reason to see me?”
“Dr. Berry, my grandpa’s condition is getting worse. Can you forget what had happened in the past and
please see him?” Dixon pleaded with a sly smile on his face.
“Mr. Haddock, come again. What did you just say?” Ashlyn asked as she knitted her eyebrows.
“I don’t know about your identity before. Please don’t take it personally,” continued Dixon indifferently.
“I’d transferred two million to Berry Furnishings yesterday. Tomorrow at the Haddock Group’s bidding, I
will let Berry Furnishings win the bid.”
Ashlyn took up a goblet and swirled the red wine before continuing, “So, what does it have to do with
me?”
Dixon had long known that Ashlyn was tough and hard to deal with.
But I didn’t expect her to be so hard to please…
He had investigated into her. This woman is quite something.
He knew she was the best surgeon in First Hospital.
But he did not expect her to be Horace’s daughter and such an outstanding doctor.
Besides, her aura and temperament were totally different from the Berrys. It was as if she did not
belong to that family at all.
“Dr. Berry, what if I buy First Hospital and give it to you?”
“Mr. Haddock, that hospital is a state-owned hospital. How do you plan to buy it?” Ashlyn had always
thought Lucas was crazy, but now she thought Dixon was crazier.
“Well, that you no need to worry. I have my ways. Dr. Berry, tell me, frankly. What do you want me to do
to help my Grandpa?”
Dixon wanted to present a dutiful son image in front of others. Therefore, he needed help from Ashlyn.
Many people were moved by the news that he was looking for doctors to treat his seriously ill Grandpa,
and he planned to keep his image that way.
“Ashlyn, don’t be so insensible.” Gnashing his teeth, Horace glared at Ashlyn. “You’re just a normal
doctor. Don’t be full of yourself. Mr. Haddock has specially arranged this dinner because he thinks
highly of you. Don’t put on airs. Just promise you will do your best.”
Horace’s company needed the money from Dixon very badly. Two million was merely enough to save
his company for now.
What is she doing? Is she happy to see my company go down?
Although Horace’s company was small, he had quite a few bad debts waiting to be cleared.
Upon seeing her father so desperate for just a few millions of investments, Ashlyn couldn’t help but
purse her lips. “Dad, didn’t you say you’re going to give your company to Penelope? What does it have
to do with me?”
Horace frowned as he glanced at Penelope and then back at Ashlyn again, feeling a little guilty.
“Ashlyn, please don’t say that. You and Penelope are both my daughters. I’m still in my prime. I haven’t
decided who will inherit my company yet.”
Mary interrupted, “Ashlyn, how could you say something like this? Are you cursing your father? Your
father is still so young.”
Upon looking at Mary, who started nagging her, Ashlyn suddenly stood up. “I’m going to the
washroom.”
As soon as she walked out of the room, Dixon followed her out as well.
When they saw both of them went out together, Horace’s face lit up. He winked at Mary, and she
quickly took out something from her bag.
“What’s that?” Penelope looked surprised.
“Don’t ask. Just watch out for us,” said Mary as she poured the medicine into Ashlyn’s cup.
Outside the washroom.
After washing her hands, Ashlyn headed out.
As soon as she came out, she saw a slender and feminine man leaning against the wall outside the
washroom.
He had a long and thin cigarette in his fingers. He flicked it twice to shake off the ashes from it.
