When Ashlyn looked at the firefighter uniform, she couldn’t help but think of Lucas in his.
If she were to compare them both, Lucas would’ve won easily because of his stupidly handsome face.
What’s happening to me? Why am I comparing him to Lucas? Am I going nuts?
“Uncle, I’m hungry...” Charlotte’s usual quiet expression was now gone. “Can we treat Ms. Berry to something?”
Lochlan’s heart immediately softened at the girl’s soft tone. “Sure thing. Where are we going?”
Charlotte smiled and turned to Ashlyn. “Ms. Berry, what do you prefer? I want to thank you for helping me improve for the past two days.”
Ashlyn realized that Charlotte had a different personality around Lochlan. She was more lively and cheerful, unlike her usual quiet self in the concert hall.
Charlotte was very timid. She would always hide whenever someone tried to talk to her.
“Anywhere is fine with me.” Ashlyn returned the smile. There was no way she could reject Charlotte’s offer.
“How about we go to your favorite Spring Creek, Charlotte?” Lochlan suggested and steered his car toward the restaurant.
Just like that, Lucas watched as Ashlyn followed Lochlan and Charlotte into Spring Creek. His heart ached at the sight as if someone were strangling his throat.
Spencer couldn’t help but laugh inside his head. There’s no way you’re going to take out Spring Creek’s electricity, right?
