Chapter 245

Chapter 245 “Of course we know each other. We’ve known each other for a while.” As usual, Benjamin wanted to make Molly look good.

Although he had no idea who Abigail was, there was no need to hesitate to protect the one he loved. Molly had a vague smirk on her face while she was looking at Abigail, who had said wanting to introduce Molly to Benjamin. Abigail was utterly embarrassed.

Her facial expression changed several times. However, in the end, she gave it a laugh. She sounded regretful and thankful as she said, “Dr. May, you should’ve told me earlier, so I wouldn’t have puffed myself up saying boastful things like I want to introduce Mr. Forts to you.” She put on a faint smile, looking decent, and there was a hint of feminine shyness in her tone. Molly averted her gaze without moving. “This woman is not as simple as I thought. She has some tricks up her sleeves. She is pretty skilled at freeing herself of awkward situations. Nobody will criticize her when she put it that way.’ However, Molly was unaware that Abigail was simply trying to keep her cool on the surface. But deep down, she was furious as hell.

Abigail could not believe her eyes because she had run a background check on Molly. “Nobody in Fomanesia has heard of Molly May before. None of the famous physicians and doctors, nor the ones with a little fame, shares the same bloody surname! She’s just an insignificant person that doesn’t even own a wiki entry. But she actually knows Benjamin Forts!

While Abigail was still in her dismay, Benjamin had already taken Molly to his grandfather, Theodore Fort.

Theodore was a friendly and hospitable elder. Although his hair and beard were gray, he still looked energetic, his cheek rosy.

When Benjamin brought Molly over, he was the first to greet her.

“You’re the Dr. May this rascal has often mentioned. What a pleasure to meet you!” said Theodore while patting Benjamin’s shoulder and letting out a cheerful laugh.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Forts Sr.,” Molly replied with a polite smile on her face Theodore looked at his grandson and then Molly. The more he looked at them, the more satisfied he was.

When Benjamin had mentioned Molly, Theodore already had a good impression of this young and skillful physician even before they had met. Now, he was certain that he was right about her.

‘Not bad. She’s neither subservient nor arrogant. She’s not conceited just because she got talent and she can grasp the timing.

She’s a steady young lady. Theodore valued young people like Molly, who was calm and dependable.

“Dr. May, you’re being humble. Your skills have surpassed my grandson greatly despite your age. I’m not saying this out of courtesy.” Although Molly disliked the Forts family because it belonged to high society, she could not help but like Theodore’s character.

Abigail got even more stupefied at the sight of them. ‘Why does someone as prestigious as Theodore Forts regard someone like Molly so highly?’

Theodore was very friendly when talking to Molly. Molly, on the other hand, did not appear to be excited or surprised throughout their conversation. Instead, her response to his words was humble and calm. Abigail could not believe her eyes. Many guests attended the Forts family’s banquet. Most of them were someone familiar with Theodore. Hence, after saying a few more words to Molly, he left her with Benjamin and went to look for his friends.

“Let’s go somewhere else.” The place they were standing was too crowded and noisy, so Molly did not reject Benjamin’s suggestion. Both of them walked away, heading to the yard outside the building
