Chapter 685

“What should we do about the news on the internet now?”

“You know Ashlyn, right? You and your mom should meet her to apologize. After you’ve settled this issue, we can then discuss the other issues,” Raphael ordered.

“Dear, I’ll go and ask Dixon for help. I’m sure he can help us!” Kate cried as she suddenly remembered that Dixon could possibly help her. “He’s my nephew. As long as he agrees to help, I can settle this issue. Ashlyn is a nobody compared to him! She is just a woman who can play the piano. I’m sure her position as the director at Centennial Healthcare is just an honorary position. Jared is the president of that company. Everyone knows that he’s the one who’s in charge there. Ashlyn doesn’t contribute anything and only waits for her share of the profits. She can’t be a capable person. Let me go and look for Dixon, Dear. I’m sure he will help me. We’re relatives!”

Kate tugged on Raphael’s arm and sobbed loudly. “I’m not young anymore. How could you ask me to go and apologize to a young tramp like her? It’s too embarrassing for me.”

They had been married for a few decades.

Although Raphael was angry, he felt his heart ache when he saw Kate this upset. He calmed down a bit and uttered in a softer tone, “I don’t think Dixon can remedy this situation. However, there’s no harm in you asking him for help.”

Wiping her tears, Kate grabbed her bag. With red, watery eyes, she stated, “I’ll go and meet him now.”

“I’ll go with you, Mom,” Lochlan remarked worriedly.

He quickly grabbed the car keys and chased after Kate.

At Bayview Villa, Ashlyn leisurely sat in front of an easel, painting a landscape.

Although she had not painted for a while, her skill was still very outstanding.

Under the starry night sky was a vast green pasture. In the middle of that grassy field stood a little girl in red.

She looked very lonely, although only her back could be seen.

Ashlyn painted for a long time.

She only stopped when she was tired.

After tidying up her paintbrushes and other equipment, Ashlyn left the room.

By the door, she spotted Harrison and Anderson. “Boss!” they chorused.

“How did it go?”

Ashlyn stared at their identical faces coldly. They were so similar, even in their height.

“Please check this out, Boss.” Harrison passed a phone to her. On the screen were the trending headlines of the day.

A few of the headlines were about the Fraser family.

Ashlyn smirked coolly. With a piercing gaze, she uttered, “Let’s see if Mrs. Fraser can still be this arrogant when the Fraser family stocks have plummeted.”

Wiping her tears, Kate grabbed her bag. With red, watery eyes, she stated, “I’ll go and meet him now.”

“You’ve avenged Ms. Charlotte, Boss,” Anderson chirped with a joyful smile. “Mrs. Fraser is disgusting.

She’s just like cow dung.”

“That’s an insult to cow dung,” Harrison stated. “She is so scandalous. I wouldn’t guarantee if I could go through all her past scandals within three days.”

Harrison scrolled through the comments regarding Kate on Twitter. Most of them were berating her.

Because of what had happened at the piano competition, Charlotte had gained some fans.

Although she did not have many fans, the ones she had were all very vocal about her situation on Twitter.

Just then, Ashlyn’s phone rang.

She looked at her phone and raised an eyebrow before answering it.

“Mr. Haddock, what do you want?”

At that moment, Dixon was in the president’s office in Haddock Group. His expression was as cold as ice as he sat on his leather chair.

However, there was a hint of mirth in his tone. It contrasted eerily against his expression.

“Ms. Berry, could you let this go for my sake? My aunt was in the wrong this time. She regrets her actions. How about you forgive her?”

“I don’t know who your aunt is, Mr. Haddock.” Ashlyn smiled deeply. “What did she do to offend me?”
