My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 778

Chapter 778

“It's truly incredible.”

“That's right! I'm very impressed.”

Many guests couldn't help but praise Penelope.

However, some of the guests there had attended Ashlyn's lecture before, so they couldn't help but ask, “That expert... I remember she doesn't look like Ms. Berry.”

Someone immediately refuted, “You probably just remembered her face wrong. Many people don't actually resemble how they appear in pictures.”

Penelope gradually raised her head and spoke humbly to the crowd. “I still have a lot to learn. No need to praise me like that. I'll get embarrassed.”

Her sickly sweet tone and voice killed the liveliness of the atmosphere.

It wasn't until after a while that people started speaking again.

Bianca pressed her fingers to her forehead with a pained expression and asked Matilda, “Is Ryan back yet?”

“Mr. Yates is on the way back, Old Mrs. Yates. It will probably take him another half an hour to arrive,” Matilda swiftly answered.

“We'll start the banquet after he has returned.”

At that moment, Caleb and Nicholas approached Bianca debonairly.

When they first arrived, many people wanted to chat with them.

It wasn't until then that they managed to be free from the crowd.

The brothers spoke almost in unison. “We hope that Old Mrs. Yates will live long and prosper!”

Caleb then gave her an invaluable jade necklace with detailed patterns carved on it. “I picked this jade pendant myself before asking a master craftsman to carve the patterns. She's a very talented person who doesn't easily agree to a request like this. Do you like it, Old Mrs. Yates?”

Almost everyone in the crowd knew a handcrafted jade pendant like that was hard to find because a master craftsman was difficult to come by.

After all, almost all jade pendants nowadays were carved by machines.
