My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 1184

Chapter 1184 Defying The Odds

“I'm not dead.” Herald's voice was hoarse, tinged with an inexplicable sense of exhaustion.

He lifted his head, his gaze meeting the chillingly cold, deep eyes of Lucas.

He couldn't help but curve his lips into a smile. “Mr. Nolan, I'll admit defeat. Even though the island is gone, I don't want to die. I'm even grateful that I'm still alive.”

“It's clear that compared to life, that island means nothing,” Lucas said indifferently, then gestured for Spencer to proceed with the transfer procedures for the small island.

Despite his reluctance, Sloan knew that the island had to be ceded.

And all the technology of new energy still remained in the hands of Section Six.

They still remained the passive party.

A determined expression surfaced on his face. “Don't worry, Mr. Nolan. I will make sure all the procedures are completed today. Mr. White, please come with me.”

With a humble bow of his head, Spencer said, “I appreciate your help, Mr. Lacey.”

Sloan paused for a breath, his face wearing a forced smile. “Mr. White, you're too kind.”

“Well, in that case, we won't disturb you any longer. Today's... performance has indeed brought me great pleasure,” said Lucas as he rose from his chair.

The man was extremely tall, his stern face subtly radiating a lethal aura.

Herald could only respond with a smile. “The troubles with new energy... I wonder when you could help us solve them, Mr. Nolan?”

Lucas merely gave him a cold glance. “No rush. We're not leaving so soon.”

He took a step forward, extending his large hand to gently grasp Ashlyn's smaller one. The stern lines on his face softened slightly. “Honey, let's go.”

His gentle and doting voice made it seem as if he wasn't the man who was filled with a deadly aura just now.

Ashlyn gave him a languid glance. “Sure!”

Seeing the interaction between the two, almost everyone took a sharp intake of breath.

Herald, especially, was completely frozen in place.

Lucas Nolan is married... Many people are aware of this. This man has never deliberately concealed the fact that he is married. So... is this woman the legendary Mrs. Nolan? He's clearly telling everyone that this woman is his. Anyone who dares to have ulterior motives toward her must be tired of living!
