With this many directors in my office, has something happened?
With her eyebrows raised, Ashlyn focused on Principal Potter.
“Well, it’s about the lecture I’ve mentioned to you last time. Now that the National Day Gala Night is
over, I was wondering if you would have the time to give a lecture at our university. After all, you’ve
saved countless lives with your expertise.” Principal Potter was finding it hard to look directly at Ashlyn
because of how beautiful she was.
She’s that genius from many years ago!
She made it!
There was so much going on inside of Principal Potter that, for a while, he did not know what else to
say.
Dr. Berry specializes in surgery, but she’s well-versed in Chinese medicine too. She can definitely give
a great lecture.
Principal Potter looked at Ashlyn with inexplicable enthusiasm but also with mixed emotions.
Puzzled by his gaze, Ashlyn asked, “I have no problem with giving a lecture, but why are you looking at
me like that?”
“Oh, I didn’t mean to.” Principal Potter did not expect Ashlyn to agree to his proposal without hesitation.
He froze for a while before continuing, “Thank you, Dr. Berry. Can you do Monday and Friday
afternoon?”
“Sure, I’ll be there on time.” Ashlyn nodded in agreement.
“My assistant will contact you to sort out the details for the lecture,” responded Principal Potter
immediately.
“Sure, it’d be my pleasure to help out the students.” Ashlyn smiled.
After standing up happily, Principal Potter glanced at his watch. “Why don’t I treat you to dinner at the
Imperial Hotel tonight, Dr. Berry?”
“I think you should save it,” Lucas sneered before he caught Ashlyn’s glare. Suddenly, his tone
changed, “Because dinner’s on me. You can have whatever you want.”
He sure changed his tone fast enough.
What a manic psycho!
At the entrance to Imperial Hotel, Ashlyn answered a call after signaling Lucas to bring Principal Potter
and the others inside first.
“Who’s calling?” asked Lucas curiously.
“None of your business. Now get inside!” exclaimed Ashlyn with a scowl.
Lucas shrugged, rubbing the top of her head affectionately before bringing the old men to the hall.
After talking to Jared for a while on the phone, Ashlyn hung up.
When she looked up, she noticed a black Mercedes-Benz parked at the entrance of Imperial Hotel.
Just as Ashlyn was about to go inside after putting her phone away, she heard a familiar voice, “Ashlyn,
it’s really you!”
Penelope?
Ashlyn turned to see Penelope stepping out of the Mercedes-Benz. The woman was wearing a light
yellow dress, a pair of three-inch high heels, and heavy makeup as she walked with swaying hips over
to Ashlyn.
“Can you really afford the Imperial Hotel? This place has the most expensive restaurant in Lake City! A
meal will probably cost you half a month’s salary,” mocked Penelope.
“And how is that any of your business?” Ashlyn looked at her with a stoic expression. I’m guessing
Penelope’s wrist has recovered since she’s her arrogant self again.
“I’m just worried about how much you have in your wallet. Has Lucas just dumped you? Is that the
reason why you’re standing out here alone? What a shame!” Penelope covered her mouth with her
hand and chuckled.
This woman and her assumptions sure are pissing me off.
Turning to go inside, Ashlyn could not bother to put up with her.
Before Ashlyn could walk away, Penelope stopped her and grabbed the man who just walked over. “Let
me introduce my boyfriend.”
Ashlyn glanced at the man, who looked thirty-six or thirty-seven years old in front of her. He was
wearing a casual outfit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
He has to be way older than Penelope, right?
“Darling, this is Ashlyn. The one I’ve mentioned to you.” Penelope held onto the man’s arm as she
continued, “Ashlyn, this is my boyfriend, Matt. He’s the vice president of University T, and he’s only
thirty-eight. Very young and promising, I know.”
