My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 747

Chapter 747

Caleb's silver tongue elicited a round of laughter from everyone.

It was a first for them to receive compliments from the high and mighty Mr. Powell.

Bursting with happiness, Caleb called, “Come on, let's go have dinner.”

With that, the large group started filing out of the venue in a friendly atmosphere.

In contrast, Penelope and Mary felt as though they had been dipped in ice-cold water.

Many celebrities had wanted to treat Caleb to a meal, and many wealthy families had wanted to cotton up to him.

Yet, Caleb had ignored those invitations and insisted on having dinner with Ashlyn's bunch.

The Field couple was also sought after. Others desperately wanted to know just one of them as it would make their career.

Olivia's mother, Mabel, cast Mary a taunting glance when she passed by her. “Ms. Canter, didn't you announce to everyone that Mr. Powell was here for Ryan?”

Unable to refute, Mary felt that Mabel had stripped her of her pride with that reminder.

Initially, everyone did assume Caleb came to the venue for Ryan and would elect him as the next president.

After all, Ryan was the world-renowned Piano Prince. He had good looks and an excellent background.

He was an eligible bachelor with a bright prospect from every angle.

Hence, everyone simply presumed Caleb was there for Ryan.

However, Mary had forgotten the most important point. Ryan had never mentioned if he was close with Caleb.

She was the one who had assumed they were close and thought of it as a fact.

She never expected that Caleb would come for Ashlyn's sake.

Mary was beyond furious. It could've been anyone else. Why must it be Ashlyn, that little b*tch!”

She was sitting offstage, so she had a front-row seat to their conversation.

I can't believe Mr. Powell is actually Ashlyn's mentor!

Mary could hear her ears ringing and her head buzzing as though bees were circling her.

Mr. Powell turns out to be Ashlyn's mentor and he even gave her piano lessons? Since when did Ashlyn know such a famous person?

Despite the exquisite makeup on Penelope's face, her face was as pale as a sheet.

Her nails almost broke the skin on her palm because of how hard she was clenching her fists. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.

What? Why is Mr. Powell so eager to have dinner with Ashlyn's bunch? What the heck is happening?

Mabel mocked, “I'll give you some advice, Ms. Canter. Don't start bragging before you're sure of what is happening. Otherwise, you'll be on the receiving end of humiliation, and others will only see you as a laughingstock.”
