However, it did not matter anymore. Lily planned to sit for another ten minutes, and if the man did not show up, she would not blame him for it. Instead, she would just let it slide.
"You're right, Mrs. Moore, but I still think that you shouldn't be too persistent on this," Jared said flatly as he patted her shoulder.
"Mr. Langston, you'll never understand how I feel. Although Tasia is my niece, I love her like my daughter. If it weren't because Mr. Fike doesn't practice anymore, I wouldn't have put my hopes in this young man."
The woman let out a long, melancholic sigh.
"Don't worry too much. I'm sure Ms. Rollins will be fine!" After the man said this, the sound of footsteps gradually faded away. It seemed that they had left.
Lily glanced at the time and was about to leave when she heard a curious voice next to her. "Are you eavesdropping?!"
The voice sounded interrogative and unfriendly. Lily was startled. When she snapped her head toward the direction of the voice, she saw a woman standing next to her.
The woman looked elegant and sophisticated!
She wore a dress from Chanel's latest collection, with gold jewelry on her neck and wrists. The woman was looking at Lily with dissatisfaction.
However, the face did not match the anxious and worried voice of the woman before this.
"I was here first,” Lily said, pointing to the food beside her.
Moreover, the conversation that was exchanged wasn't anything serious.
They were just discussing the secret apprentice.
The woman's gaze flickered up and down before asking arrogantly, “Which family are you from?"
Most of the people who came today were from a family of doctors. Those from other fields who were invited were usually only the famous ones.
"I'm from the Christian family,” Lily replied.
The research institute invited her, and she did not belong to any particular family. She gave herself the surname.
"The Christian family?!" The woman frowned as she ransacked her brain." I've never heard of them!"
There were only a few famous families in the medical field, other than Dominic, who had not left his house, she was familiar with most of them. She had never heard of anyone from the Christian family. Thus, she immediately regarded Lily as a newcomer.
"It is a rare opportunity to come to this meeting. You should take the chance to look around. Keep your eyes wide and your mouth tight, understand?"
Although Lily found it a little funny, she nodded cooperatively and said, "I understand!"
Seeing how she was obedient, the woman did not make things difficult for Lily. Instead, she turned away and noticed someone walking into the banquet hall.novelbin
