My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 137

Chapter 137

Treating a common cold is fine, but treating old Mr. Haddock is way above my abilities!

Ashlyn cocked her eyebrows. At least Penelope has some self-awareness.

Horace instantly understood that there was a misunderstanding going on, so he explained, “No, no. I was referring to my younger daughter, Ashlyn. She’s really amazing! A lot of important people want her to give them a consultation!”

Penelope was so shocked she dropped her cutlery when she heard that. She shrieked, “Dad, is Ashlyn even a doctor? Did you get something mixed up?”

“Shut up!” Horace glared at her. The family had been hiding the fact that Ashlyn was working in First Hospital from Penelope because they didn’t want to upset their elder daughter.

In particular, Mary knew how competitive her daughter was, so she definitely didn’t want to cause distress to her. That was the reason Horace and she wanted to send Penelope to the First Hospital at all costs.

They thought if Ashlyn could get in the hospital, then Penelope would do the same.

“Horace Berry!” Dixon’s icy expression at that moment was terrifying.

Fury filled every corner of his contorted face as he glared at Horace. “You really have a death wish, huh?”

This Ashlyn lady stole the limelight during the gala, toyed with Winsor and Jared, and even seduced Lucas! What a vixen!

So what if she’s attractive?

She’s nothing but a pretty face!

How dare she refer to herself as a famous doctor?

The Berry family really is a sh*thole filled with pieces of trash!

He pointed at Penelope and said, “At least this one works in the hospital.”

He then pointed at Ashlyn and exclaimed, “What about her? If she really is a doctor, I’ll strip naked right now!”

“Mr. Haddock, you must be mistaken. Please hear me out!” Horace was absolutely petrified.

However, he stood up abruptly as his tall and imposing figure loomed over the rest of them. “Horace, Berry Furnishings is going bankrupt for sure.”

He then left immediately, despite Horace’s desperate pleas.

The whole ordeal entertained Ashlyn as she stood up too. “I’m leaving.”
