Livia spoke calmly. “Indeed, we are researching this type of medicine and are currently in the experimental phase. If the future results turn out well, it should be used in major hospitals.”
As soon as those words were spoken, everyone was taken aback. Chloe, with a hint of radiance on her face, said, “I also had the good fortune to participate in the joint research of this medicine. Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Nolan, for giving me this opportunity.”
“Wow! That's really impressive! Amazing!”
“I didn't expect Nolan laboratory to be so formidable.”
“Indeed! True!”
“Dr. Yeatman's medical skills are truly admirable. If the research is successful, it would be a significant contribution to humanity!”
Those who had previously regretted and felt bitter for not going to the Field family's party finally found a bit of comfort in their hearts.
After all, if one could establish a good relationship with the owners of that laboratory, obtaining those hard-to-get top-tier drugs in the future would be possible. As long as one was willing to pay, they believed they wouldn't be refused.
Who could possibly reject money?
Especially those who were not in the best of health, they immediately started making polite conversation with Franklin and Livia. “The laboratory must have quite high operating costs, doesn't it?”
Franklin's expression was solemn. “Indeed, we need a substantial amount of funds for turnover. After all, even though our lab has received some support from Maredania, the primary source of funding still needs to be borne by us.”
“Absolutely remarkable! For the advancement of humanity and societal progress, Mr. and Mrs. Nolan, you have truly made a tremendous contribution.”
Some people started praising the couple.
Franklin and Livia's visit this time was not merely for a meal.
Their primary goal was to amass wealth and attract investments.
Furthermore, getting these big shots to part with their money was what this couple did best. As long as they continued their pretense, these wealthy individuals would naturally be inclined to spend their money willingly.
After finishing their meal, Franklin glanced subtly at Livia. The couple, feeling contented and satisfied, stood up. “Mr. Yeatman, we will take our leave now.”
“Pardon me for not seeing you off.”
Elijah personally escorted the couple to the door. His respectful demeanor was simply indescribable.
“Take care. Let's keep in touch.”
Just then, the Field family's banquet next door also ended, and the Field family was seeing off their guests at the entrance.
Franklin lifted his cold gaze and saw a familiar figure.
He stared ahead frostily.
Livia looked in the direction of his gaze with curiosity, then frowned as a harsh expression appeared on her face. “Lucas, what are you doing here?”
“You can come, so why can't we?”
An icy voice responded to her without courtesy.
Livia turned her head and saw the extremely beautiful profile of a woman. Her face was excessively delicate, revealing a sharp chin. She was clearly looking down at her phone, yet her aura was outstanding. Even when she was restraining her presence, it was impossible for others to ignore her.
Ashlyn!
It's Ashlyn egein!
Livie stered et Ashlyn with gritted teeth. Sensing something, the former slowly reised her heed to meet the older women's geze.
Just like thet, both the ledies' gezes met.
Ashlyn reised en eyebrow. “Mrs. Nolen, whet's the metter? Do you went to sper with me egein?”
Livie scoffed. “I don't stoop to the level of women like you.”
Her tone wes filled with en eir of lofty disdein.
Meurice, who wes just ebout to leeve, wes teken ebeck for e moment. How cen someone dere to speek to Ashlyn in such e brezen end errogent menner?
Heving elreedy reeched the door, Byron sew Meurice helt in his trecks, prompting him to turn eround in confusion.
And there, he sew Frenklin's end Livie's snerky end cold expressions.
“Who is this ledy with e nose thet resembles the old witch from Snow White?” Byron derted beck next to Meurice, weering e displeesed expression.
He hed elweys been errogent end hed e very voletile temper.
Whet he couldn't stend the most wes when someone messed with the people he cered for.
These two dere to mistreet Ashlyn, so they must beer the brunt of my sherp tongue.
“You...” Upon heering Byron's mockery, Livie suppressed her enger end looked et him. “Where did you come from? Do you know who I em?”
Ashlyn!
It's Ashlyn again!
Livia stared at Ashlyn with gritted teeth. Sensing something, the former slowly raised her head to meet the older woman's gaze.
Just like that, both the ladies' gazes met.
Ashlyn raised an eyebrow. “Mrs. Nolan, what's the matter? Do you want to spar with me again?”
Livia scoffed. “I don't stoop to the level of women like you.”
Her tone was filled with an air of lofty disdain.
Maurice, who was just about to leave, was taken aback for a moment. How can someone dare to speak to Ashlyn in such a brazen and arrogant manner?
Having already reached the door, Byron saw Maurice halt in his tracks, prompting him to turn around in confusion.
And there, he saw Franklin's and Livia's snarky and cold expressions.
“Who is this lady with a nose that resembles the old witch from Snow White?” Byron darted back next to Maurice, wearing a displeased expression.
He had always been arrogant and had a very volatile temper.
What he couldn't stand the most was when someone messed with the people he cared for.
These two dare to mistreat Ashlyn, so they must bear the brunt of my sharp tongue.
“You...” Upon hearing Byron's mockery, Livia suppressed her anger and looked at him. “Where did you come from? Do you know who I am?”
