Chapter 150
Bianca quickly typed something on her phone and flashed it at Zachary,
“Oh, so it’s you. I remember you,” Zachary said..
His face, ever stern and unyielding, revealed no trace of a smile. Yet, in contrast to his usual indifference, this was already a rare reaction. He was a man who respected ability and cherished those with genuine talent.
Bianca had caught his eye.
The crowd watched in awe as Bianca boldly blocked Zachary’s way.
Not long ago, Bianca had been publicly humiliated by Shirley–any other woman would have fled in shame, but not Bianca,
The crowd wondered, Could it be that she wants to turn the tables?”
At this moment, Hannah found herself somewhat impressed by Bianca’s ability to endure and adapt.
In a sense, the Yeats family had, perhaps, raised this daughter rather successfully
Zachary added, “Young lady. I’ve read your paper. It’s not perfect, but compared to many young academics, your work stands out. So, did you graduate from a renowned university overseas?”
Only a select few, both in terms of papers and individuals, could leave a lasting impression on Zachary
It seemed that Bianca was indeed capable.
Bianca smiled and nodded. “Yes”
Zachary added, “It’s truly admirable that you’ve chosen to use your expertise to serve the nation, instead of remaining overseas, earning a lucrative salary and neglecting your homeland”
Bianca responded. “Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Yates. As the younger generation, it is our duty to shoulder the immense responsibility of aiding in our country’s development.”

Shirley felt uncomfortable the moment she saw Bianca’s face. She felt like Bianca was doing it on
Zachary had come to attend the wedding, yet before he had even sat down, Bianca had managed to stop him. It seemed she truly had some skills,
When Bianca’s eyes met Shirley’s, her mouth curled into a small smile, almost like a silent challenge. But it also made Shirley feel like maybe it was just in her head. Still, the uneasy feeling inside her was getting stronger.
At that moment, Shirley might have understood just how Elaine felt living with the Yeats family.
If Bianca had lacked any real capabilities, she surely would not have managed to handle the situation so well.
Shirley was thriving in the corporate world and was quite skilled at playing the cello, but when it came to academic research, she was completely clueless.
“Mr. Yates, this is…” Blanca intended to introduce Finley as her boyfriend, but remembering their somewhat shady status, she quickly changed her words. “This is the eldest son of the Scott family, Finley Scott.”
Finley seized the chance to speak, eager to make a connection. “Great–Uncle. I’m Finley, from the Scott family”
Finley was sure that Bianca’s actions would undoubtedly result in success.
Zachary nodded and said calmly. “Your mother called me.
Although Zachary had no direct familial ties with the Scott family, he was referred to as “Great–Uncle” by Finley due to his shared family lineage
with Trista,
Thanks to Bianca’s intervention, Finley managed to speak with Zachary for a few moments, regaining some of the dignity he had initially lost.
Shirley now comprehended the full extent of Bianca’s capabilities, realizing she was not merely relying on her seemingly innocent and fragile appearance to maneuver everyone around her,
At that moment, Shirley’s expression darkened significantly.

She felt that Bianca must have done it on purpose.

thought.
Elaine’s smile grew ever so slightly, her eyes now carrying a deeper, more mysterious glint as she allowed Bianca to have one last moment of
arrogance.
“Mr. Yates, please take a seat.
With her SCI paper securing her position, Bianca confidently helped Zachary and the others settle on the sofa, with Shirley joining them. As Bianca occasionally conversed with Zachary, Shirley sat quietly off to the side. Inside, Shirley was seething with contempt for Bianca.
At this moment, Zachary asked, “By
y the way, where’s your daughter–in–law, Shirley?”
“Oh, she’s changing. Shirley replied.
She quickly made up an excuse. Shirley was worried that Elaine would be frightened by Zachary’s stern expression. Moreover, Bianca was here, so Shirley did not want Elaine’s mood to be affected.
At this point, Bianca had the upper hand, her smile growing wider as she turned to Zachary. “I heard your wife is a cellist, Mr. Yates?” she asked.
Zachary gave a nod, surprised that Bianca had an interest in the cello. “Yes, my wife taught Shirley the cello. Do you play the cello as well?”
Shirley added from the side, “You still remember that, Mr. Yates Back then, Mrs. Yates was quite the strict teacher
Bianca smiled once more. “I heard the position of president for the Cello Association is currently vacant. I’d like to recommend myself.
“While I might not be the most talented, I do believe I’m capable enough for this role. I’d love to hear any advice you might have, Mr. Yates”
Bianca had found out that Zachary had a great appreciation for talent, and with her own abilities, she felt bold enough to be direct with him.
Bianca’s cello playing was widely regarded as one of the finest in Boynton, even considered by some to be of a level worthy of national acclaim.
However, despite the recognition, Bianca did not have an official role, which made her feel unsatisfied.
Becoming the president of the Cello Association would provide her with the recognition she desired, along with the kind of prestige that came with
such a title.
That was the reason why Bianca raised the issue with Za

Everyone knew that Zachary was a man who valued ability practically guaranteed.
Zachary asked, “Who taught you t
to play the cello?
Bianca answered. “Dane Gutierrez.”
Zachary said, “Oh, Danet I haven’t seen him in a while. However, the president of the Cello Association…”
Just as Bianca was feeling proud of herself, a soft female voice came from the side. “Mr. Yates”
Zachary turned in the duction of the voice and saw Elaine.
“Oh, if it iwot blame? Zachary said.
His originally stern face immediately softened
Upon hearing Zac

She had no idea Zachary was acquainted with Elaine.
Shirley, too, was taken aback, but mostly pleasantly surprised. “Mr. Yates, do you know Elaine!”
“Of course.” Zachary replied, looking at Elaine’s attire and quickly realizing something. “Could it be that Elaine is your daughter–in–law, Shirley!”
Shirley said, “Yes, Elaine’s my daughter–in–law
Zachary laughed joyfully: “Well, I sure didn’t see that coming. Marrying Elaine really is a blessing for the Morgan family”
Not realizing the relationship between Elaine and Bianca, Zachary’s expression softened even more as he turned to Bianca and said, “You were asking about the president of the Cello Association, right? Well, as luck would have it, here she is.
“Elaine is the president of the Cello Association.”
