Chapter 628 Psychology Award

After singing her praises, the host waved her hand and shouted toward the audience, “Now, let’s give a warm round of applause to welcome Ms.

Ainsley Easton to the stage to receive the award.”

Ainsley received the Chernoff Psychology Award.

She had published a very outstanding probability theory on psychological profiling through criminal records, so this year she became a candidate for the Chernoff Award.

This was already a great honor, and even she herself didn’t think she would really win the award.

However, all of this did happen, and the dawn of hope hit her, isolating everything around her.

Under everyone’s gazes, Ainsley stood up and took a deep breath. Under the host’s gaze, she lifted her dress and walked forward elegantly.

“Ms. Easton, please stand next to me.” The host took a step to the right.

Ainsley raised her head and smiled at her. Then, she walked over to her calmly.

The host handed her the trophy. “Ms. Easton, please give your acceptance speech.”

Ainsley took the trophy and stared at it for a while. When she looked up again, her eyes were full of confidence, which made her look even more beautiful and charming.

“I don’t think this award is just for me. But rather, it’s for everyone who works in this field and takes it seriously. Thanks to you, the world has been blessed with a lot of beauty. Thank you.”

Ainsley’s eyes sparkled as she spoke sincerely on the podium.

After she finished speaking, the whole venue fell into an enigmatic silence. About five or six seconds later, there was thunderous applause, and it didn’t end for a long time.

At the same time, a few people watching the live broadcast were staring intently at Ainsley.

When Serina saw the woman in all her glory confidently giving her acceptance speech, she immediately felt a sense of pride swelling in her chest. “I knew it, Ms. Easton can be the best in any occasion.”

Amused, Manuel poked her head with his finger. “If you know, why don’t you learn from Ms. Easton? You play all day long, and your grades are not outstanding. It’s really humiliating for me.”

After saying that, Serina’s face instantly turned red. She didn’t know if she was angry or ashamed. She moved her butt to the side and said indignantly, “Manuel, you’re so annoying.”

Manuel shook his head, shifted his gaze back to the screen again, and looked at the woman on screen with love in his eyes.

Serina rolled her eyes and deliberately spoke sarcastic words to the man next to her. “Fortunately, Ms. Easton doesn’t dislike me and even likes my clinginess. Some people can’t get Ms. Easton’s tenderness.”

He looked back at her with a faint smile and got up unhurriedly. He was not angry, and his tone sounded very calm as he said, “In that case, you can go to Ms. Easton next month to ask for pocket money.”

Serina was speechless.

A wise man was someone who could adapt to changing circumstances.

The moment she looked up, she smiled brightly and said, “Manuel, I was wrong. Please forgive me.”

It wasn’t that she was worried that Ainsley wouldn’t give her money, but Serina couldn’t bring herself to ask for it no matter what.

Manuel snorted lightly and walked away.

Serina asked, “Manuel, where are you going?”

Without looking back, Manuel said, “I’m going to pick up your dear Ms.Easton.” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

“I’ll go too!” Serina jumped up excitedly but was stopped before she could take a step.

“You stay at home and don’t go anywhere.”

“The Chernoff Psychology Award is a very valuable award in the psychology field. After Ms. Ainsley Easton from the University of Washington received the award, she gave another honor to the University of Washington…”

In the detention room, the sound of the TV was extraordinarily loud, and Irene listened to the news with a pale face.

The TV screen was so close to her that she could even see the glamorous woman on TV effortlessly. She could never forget that face in her life.

She laughed self-deprecatingly. The contrast was really tragic. She was waiting for an interrogation in the detention room, while Ainsley was talking eloquently at an awards ceremony.

People from all walks of life wished they could have a word with Ainsley. It was obvious that Irene was jealous.

The black Cayenne was speeding down the road. When he arrived at the last minute, he was told that Ainsley and Matteo had gone back a long time ago, so he also went home disappointed.

The reason why he went home instead of chasing after them was because tomorrow was New Year’s Eve.

On New Year’s Eve, as soon as Ainsley woke up and went downstairs, she saw Matteo making breakfast.

She looked in the direction of the kitchen in confusion. “Where’s Nancy?”

Matteo placed the toast on the table and said, “I’ve given Nancy a break. Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner.”

After washing her hands, Ainsley looked at the food on the dining table. The aroma of the food wafted out toward her nose, and she couldn’t help but sniff it. Today, she wanted to let go of all her unhappiness for the time being.

She joked, “I didn’t expect my cousin to cook so well. Whoever marries you is really blessed.”

Matteo knocked on her head and stuffed the egg into her mouth. “You cant even plug up that mouth of yours with food. You’re making it sound like I didn’t cook for you before.”

Ainsley took the egg and looked at Matteo’s back. Indeed, when they lived together before, it was also Matteo who was cooking.

At noon, the two decided to go out for a French meal, and while they were out, they received a call from Robyn.

“Matteo, when are you coming back? It’s almost lunchtime. Your dad has been waiting for a long time,” Robyn said softly.

Matteo was agitated when he heard Robyn’s voice. He said in a deep voice, “Mom, tell Dad that I’m not going home today. I’ll visit him when I have time.”

The next second, he heard Robyn’s angry voice. “What? You’re not coming back? How can this be? Today is New Year’s Eve, the day for family reunion.

You must come back.”

Immediately afterward, it seemed that Harold took the phone over. “Matteo, is Aisy with you?”

Matteo glanced at Ainsley, who was waiting beside him. “Yes.”

“Hurry up and bring your cousin back. I haven’t seen Aisy for a long time. I know what your mother did before. Don’t worry, I’ve already taught her a lesson,” Harold said in a low voice.

Matteo put the call on speaker, so Ainsley could hear everything clearly. She couldn’t help but hesitate a little. Although she couldn’t face Robyn calmly, Harold was really good to her.

After her father passed away, he and Matteo took charge of the funeral.

She would always remember that when she held a press conference after her divorce from Cason, it was Harold and Matteo who appeared together and took her away, telling everyone that she had people who backed her up.

After pondering for a while, Ainsley tugged on Matteo’s sleeve. “Matteo, I haven’t seen Harold for a long time either.”

It was better to avoid trouble. She had experienced the imposing manner of Robyn and didn’t want to be hated by her again.

Inside a detention room, Irene wrapped her clothes tightly around herself. She was not wearing thick clothes. She was used to going out by car and going home to warm herself up. She didn’t expect this day to come.
