My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214

Isn’t this practically a brainwash session like those pyramid schemes?

Ashlyn saw how serious the upper-class women looked while listening to Sienna’s speech. Some even nodded in agreement.

She blinked.

Maybe those who had just arrived at the tea party might not fall for it.

But things could be different as time passed.

Sienna was obviously an expert in brainwashing others. She had manipulated the feelings of these rich women and socialites numerous times.

Her words were completely baseless.

Just as Ashlyn fiddled with her own nails in boredom, she heard a familiar voice coming from nearby. “Boohoo... I’m so sorry to hear that. My brother didn’t give me much to spare, but I’ll... I’ll give you a hundred grand for now.”

Naomi Nolan?

Ashlyn raised a brow and glanced in the direction of the voice. There, she saw Naomi sobbing away as a young man knelt in front of her.

The man’s eyes were glistening, but he tried his best to not let any tears fall.

That made him look even more convincing.

“Thank you. I’m so glad I met you at my lowest and most vulnerable. You’re my lucky star.”

Ashlyn was speechless.

What did this guy go through now?

Just as Naomi took out her bank card and was about to swipe it, Ashlyn walked over and grabbed her by the hand. “You’re giving away a hundred grand just like that? Do you want your brother to freeze your account again?”

“Ugh! Who are you? Why are you getting in my business?” Naomi raged. She was so engrossed in the man’s sappy narrative that she didn’t even glance at Ashlyn.

Ashlyn chuckled softly. “You don’t know who I am?”

Why does this voice sound so familiar?

Naomi turned her head and caught sight of Ashlyn’s stunning face.

“What... What are you doing here?” she asked in shock.

“I told you to do better in school if you’re that dumb,” Ashlyn replied while pointing to her own head. “Did a dog eat your brains?”

“How could you say that to me?” Naomi muttered.

Had it been before, she would have exploded the moment Ashlyn insulted her like this.

But ever since Ashlyn had saved her, she became the woman’s loyal fangirl and absolutely idolized her.

“I feel so sorry for him,” Naomi explained while grabbing hold of Ashlyn’s arm. “He’s had sepsis ever since he was young, but his grades are still amazing and he always tops his class. It’s just unfortunate that he can’t afford the hospital bills. I’ve always looked up to intellectuals.”
