My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261

The moment Ashlyn placed the phone by her ear, she heard Lochlan’s apologetic voice. “Ms. Berry, sorry, I’m still busy. Can you send Lottie home? I’ll be worried if she goes home by herself.”

“Sure. Don’t worry.”

“Thank you.”

Hanging up the call, Ashlyn returned the phone to Charlotte. “Let’s go. I’ll be your guardian of the day.”

Right then, a Bentley came to a stop in front of the two.

Lucas came down from the car and strode toward Ashlyn. “What a coincidence. Where are you heading to?”

Ashlyn perked her brows and looked at him. “It’s really such a... coincidence.”

Too coincident.

“Why don’t I give you a ride?” Lucas ignored Charlotte’s presence. His eyes were fixed on Ashlyn’s pretty face, not letting any of her micro-expressions slip by him.

“Charlotte, let’s go. Up the car.” With Charlotte’s hand in hers, the two sat on the back seats.

The light in Lucas’ eyes dimmed. He had wanted to make the girl sit in the front.

Now he was going to be all by himself in the front instead.

Damn it!

Forget it. At least she’s willing to get into my car now.

It’s a great improvement.

Charlotte was staring at the handsome man. He clearly had divine facial features, but the air around him sent chills down her spine.

She could not help but move closer to Ashlyn. His gaze is... scary. He looked even scarier after I sat beside Ms. Berry.

It looks like he wants to swallow Ms. Berry whole and chase me out of the car.

But Ms. Berry doesn’t look scared at all.

Abruptly, Charlotte was jealous of Ashlyn; Jealous that the latter was fearless.

She, too, wanted to become someone like Ashlyn.

Lucas was sensitive enough to notice Charlotte’s reliance and trust in Ashlyn. Moreover, she looked like she admired the woman.

Frustration swarmed from his chest to his brain.
