Chapter 136

“Oh? You must’ve only started work recently, right? Which department are you from?” Ashlyn sized up Penelope. Her grades didn’t meet the academic requirement of medical school.

Horace had to pay five hundred thousand to buy her a spot in medical school because of that.

Besides that, he must’ve spent a lot a fortune to secure a position for her in the city’s First Hospital.

“I’m a surgeon.” Penelope smiled smugly because she got into First Hospital, despite its strict admission requirements.

“Oh, I see.” Ashlyn nodded in acknowledgement because she was a surgeon too.

Penelope must’ve stood in for me the past few days where I wasn’t in the hospital.

The world really is small.

Penelope was a little disappointed because she sensed no trace of envy or jealousy from Ashlyn. She thought Ashlyn would be resentful of her once she mentioned where she worked at.

However, this is not unexpected for a two-faced woman like her. She must be feeling very jealous right now, even though she doesn’t show it, Penelope thought gleefully.

At that moment, Horace and Mary came out from the kitchen with some food in their hands. Horace smiled ostentatiously and said, “Mr. Haddock, please take a seat.”
