My One In A Million Wife (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 231

My one in a million wife [Ashlyn and Lucas] chapter 231

A certain guy’s expression changed so fast that even the naked eye could detect it.

Ashlyn never noticed anything wrong with Lucas, though.

She continued cleaning up, then walked into the kitchen to do the dishes.

It was already late at night when she was finally done.

She sighed and grabbed her bag before informing, “I’m going home.”

Lucas stared like a leopard honing in on his prey. His sharp gaze locked in on her lazily as he suggested, “It’s late, so you should stay.”

“Lucas, we’re divorced,” reminded Ashlyn exasperatedly.

“The house is too big, and I’m scared of staying here alone because it’s dark. I’m not used to the darkness,” said the man, who decided to act weak the whole way through.

Lucas rarely lied, and he wasn’t used to lowering his stance or acting weak.

As such, he didn’t notice that his ears were slowly but surely turning red as he spoke.

Under the light, he looked ridiculously seductive, and his handsome face only made him more desirable.

Ashlyn was speechless.

She finally learned that some people were simply shameless and didn’t have any limits as to how low they would go.

Lucas Nolan, the president of Nolan group, and the captain of his crew.

That was the man who could get the powerful figures of Lake City to shiver simply by stomping his foot… Isn’t it a little ridiculous for him to say something so immature?

Ashlyn felt goosebumps all over herself.

Lucas had his eyes slightly down. Perhaps it was because he was lying and felt guilty, but he didn’t look Ashlyn in her eyes.

After a while, Lucas realized that Ashlyn never replied. He tilted his eyes up to sneak a peek and realized… that the door was open with the icy wind blowing in!

The lady had left.

How did she leave without making any noises or alerting me? F*ck!

Lucas stood up angrily.

That woman abandoned me and fled! I even lowered my stance and threw my arrogance away to ask her to stay. Did she even notice any of that?

Lucas was utterly irritated because that was the first time he ever spoke so softly and sweetly to a woman, but she had ignored him.

F*ck!

Annoyance kept bubbling out of Lucas’ heart and attacked him.

He acted like a lunatic as he grabbed the keys to his private helicopter and dashed out of the place.

The night was ridiculously dark.

A private helicopter zipped through the night.

As Lucas flew the plane, he called his employees who worked at the airline.

“Yes, Mr. Nolan, the path is clear, and we have purchased the exclusive right to fly from Whitland Villa to Bayview Villa. Yes, sir, you are the only one who can use that route, and you can use it whenever you want. You no longer need to send in a request or an application,” said the employee at South Star Airlines immediately.

What kind of idiot would buy the exclusive right to fly within such a short distance? I’m guessing only rich CEOs would understand. Wait, doesn’t Jared Quickton of the Centennial Healthcare live in Bayview Villa? Mr. Nolan and Mr. Quickton aren’t gay lovers, are they? Holy sh*t!

Lucas’ subordinate couldn’t help but tremble.

There’s nothing wrong with being gay, and they’re both handsome and rich, but isn’t that a little…? I mean, doesn’t Mr. Nolan have a wife who has never made a public appearance before? Maybe he only married the woman to hide his true sexuality? Mr. Quickton’s rumored girlfriend is probably just a ruse too. Man, it must be tough being a powerful CEO who has an uptight reputation to keep. Poor gays.

When Ashlyn got back to the Bayview Villa, she thought about how she had a lot of things to do on the next day. She decided to go to bed early.

She walked into her room and showered.

After that, she grabbed a towel and rubbed her wet, dark hair.

She was about to start blow-drying it when the door to her bedroom was suddenly opened.

Lucas’ domineering aura flushed out as he stood by the door.

He had one hand on the doorknob, and his beautiful eyes glared evilly at the woman under the bright light.

She only had a towel wrapped around her beautiful figure while water droplets naughtily dropped down from her hair.
