My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 309

Chapter 309

However, his explanation had made things worse because Ashlyn saw those to be another one of Lucas’ excuses.

“When are you going to stop behaving like a child?” Ashlyn glared at Lucas once more because she had had enough of the man’s childish behavior.

Suddenly, a nurse sprinted over, announcing, “Dr. Berry, your grandmother is awake!”

“I’ll drop by her ward immediately.” Ashlyn nodded, rushing over to Susan’s ward as soon as she could.

Without a second thought, Lucas went after her immediately.

Susan, who was lying on the bed, looked pale and haggard. Since she had just regained consciousness, she was extremely worn out.

Her hands had been pricked by the needle because part of her treatment plan was IV therapy. In short, the nutrients she required would be delivered into her system through infusion.

She surveyed the surroundings and realized she wasn’t in the attic; neither was she in the Berry Residence because she was in an entirely unfamiliar place.

While she lost herself in the process of thought, she heard footsteps as someone approached her ward. Before long, a familiar voice could be heard as Ashlyn asked, “Grandma, how do you feel?”

“Ashlyn...” Susan turned around and had her gaze fixated on the woman in front of her. She stretched her arm, attempting to hold Ashlyn’s hand.

Ashlyn quickly held her grandmother’s hand firmly, asking, “Grandma, why didn’t you get in touch with me? I’m sure you’re aware of your condition?”

Susan heaved a long sigh of despair, explaining, “I don’t want to cause you any trouble. Ashlyn, it’s not a big deal, I’m sure I’ll recover in a few days...”

“Grandma, what are you talking about? I’m your granddaughter!” Ashlyn was heartbroken, she stared at her grandmother in the eyes as she helped her to sit upright.

“That is the reason why I don’t want to cause you any trouble because you’re my beloved granddaughter. I can’t possibly waste your hard-earned money because the medical bill may cost you a fortune,” Susan looked at Ashlyn in the eyes, explaining the rationale behind her decision.

“How can you keep me in the dark when dad has treated you this badly? If I hadn’t dropped by to visit you, I wouldn’t have found out that they have forced you to live in the attic!” Ashlyn’s eyes glinted wrathfully, reprimanding her father’s action.

“There’s nothing wrong with living in the attic. It’s actually quite a comfortable space since I’m the only one around,” Susan tried to lighten the mood so she pulled her granddaughter’s leg.

“Grandma, once you’re discharged from the hospital, I want you to move into my place! I won’t allow you to return to dad’s place anymore no matter what! I don’t want you to suffer anymore, Grandma!” Ashlyn held on to her grandmother’s hand, suggesting, “I’m currently staying with a few of my friends in a villa. Do you remember the twins? They are my housemates. I’m sure they’ll enjoy your presence as much as I do.”

Susan shook her head. “That won’t be necessary, Ashlyn. It doesn’t make any sense for an old woman like me to stay with a bunch of youngsters, right? Since I have a son, it only makes sense for me to stay with my son.”

“Grandma, can you please listen to me for once? Please?” Ashlyn begged her grandmother.

Suddenly, a man’s husky voice could be heard as the man greeted, “Grandma, this is for you.” The moment Susan raised her head, she was astonished because a handsome man had made his way into her ward. ...
