Lavinia shrieked, “What?”
She hadn’t even had the chance to post on Facebook yet! Without publication, how would anyone know just how amazing her daughter truly was? She hadn’t even had a chance to brag!
Crystal was caught off guard. “Aren’t these things useless? Mira and I just assumed they were junk mail.”
Lavinia was speechless. These were her genius daughter and her daughter’s equally genius best friend?
“So there’s really none left?”
She clung to a shred of hope. Crystal shook her head. Lavinia felt utterly defeated.
Crystal added, “But, we should be getting more soon.”
She didn’t give her own phone number to them, nor did she give Miranda’s. So, they’d often just leave an address for contact purposes. Miranda did the same, basically blocking any unknown numbers.
As a result, all the mails were sent to the house, leading their mailboxes and the delivery spot at their house often overflowing with invitations and the like.
Lavinia’s spirits lifted instantly. “Oh, I see.”
She cleared her throat slightly. “Hey, Crystal, how about you list my number for contacts in the future?”
“Sure.” Crystal glanced at Lavinia, blinking
Two days later.
During the Lancaster Group’s executive meeting, Lavinia answered a call in front of everyone.
“Hello? Oh, Caldwell University? You’re hoping to invite my daughter to enroll? Ah, sorry, she’s too busy with her career to attend college.”
She smiled as she hung up, turning to the executives. “Sorry about that. My daughter’s just so exceptional, even the university, globally among top three, are calling her up, but our girl just isn’t into academics.”
The executives were baffled. Did they ask? Did they really?
What did she mean by not into academics? How could someone who didn’t care about academics be so outstanding that top universities were clamoring for her? What kind of humblebrag was this?
Suddenly, Lavinia’s phone rang again. She took another call.
“Oh, Mystoria Academy of Sciences, yes, I’m Crystal’s aunt. Sorry, she is currently focused on research with my daughter and isn’t interested in other organizations.”
After hanging up, she continued to smile at the group.
“Apologies again, my niece’s papers have been published in four major medical journals, so naturally these science academies and pharmaceutical companies are eager to recruit her.”
The executives were left speechless. ‘They hadn’t asked either, had they?? Was President Lancaster just shamelessly flaunting?
They’d noticed. Since President Lancaster adopted the young lady, the once aloof and commanding boss had become more cheerful.
And now, she was even showing off, just like those new moms on their friend lists, always bragging about their kids. As if no one else had daughters.
But they indeed didn’t have daughters as extraordinary as hers. How did President Lancaster get so lucky to adopt such a remarkable daughter?
Chapter 302
Clearly born into unfortunate circumstances, yet she turned her life around so spectacularly. Some of them had initially dismissed the adopted daughter.
But now, they had a newfound respect for her. And it made sense why both President Lancaster and the Lancaster Group doted on her so much.
