My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 446

Chapter 446

Ashlyn managed to make it out of the accident unscathed, but she was confused. Since the entire space was carpeted, nothing should have made her trip. Thankfully, she was an observant woman and managed to respond in the nick of time. Otherwise, she would be gravely injured if she were to fall from such a height.

Lilian blamed herself with a guilty look. “Ms. Berry, I’m so sorry! I didn’t take good care of you. If anything happens to you, I’ll definitely die of guilt.”

She had a pitiable front blaming herself for what happened as though she was the one at fault. Ashlyn was the one met with the accident, but it was Lilian’s eyes that were brimmed with tears, as though the latter was the injured one.

In return, Ashlyn frowned and remarked sarcastically, “Excuse me? I’m not hurt at all. Why don’t you save your tears for the time being?”

“Ms. Berry, that’s such a cool move! Are you a martial arts practitioner?” Lilian wiped her tears and asked curiously.

“Yes. If anyone tries to assault me, I’ll give them a taste of their own medicine,” Ashlyn stared at Lilian in the eyes as she replied callously.

Once she finished her sentence, she walked into the kitchen right away.

Lilian pursed her lips before going after Ashlyn.

She had prepared a relatively simple meal for them, but Ashlyn savored the food without any complaint.

Once Lucas joined Ashlyn in the kitchen, Lilian served him his meal immediately. “Mr. Nolan, please try some of the dishes I have prepared for you.”

“I only want to eat the things she cooks,” Lucas replied indifferently with a poker face.

Having just bathed, his short hair was disheveled and he looked especially seductive in his black bathrobe.

It was the first time Lilian encountered such a wild side of Lucas, given she had always seen him in formal wear.

Although Lucas seemed extremely different from the way he usually presented himself, the fact remained he was an attractive man.

Lilian flushed involuntarily as she stared at him.

“M-Mr. Nolan, I-I have spent a lot of effort to prepare these...”

“What about it? Leave us alone,” Lucas replied nonchalantly.

Lilian’s eyes widened in disbelief. She doubted her ears, wondering if she had mistaken the man’s words.

“I have completed my meal.” Ashlyn wiped her lips clean. She felt uncomfortable as soon as she detected the lustful gaze Lilian cast on Lucas.

Without a second thought, she leaned over and adjusted the man’s bathrobe to cover his exposed chest as she suggested, “I’m tired. Let’s call it a day.”

Lucas lowered his gaze and smirked, his eyes glued to the hand in front of his chest. “Sure. Let’s call it a day.”

As soon as he finished his sentence, he got up from his seat holding Ashlyn’s hand, and the two left the kitchen side-by-side.

Lilian, all alone in the kitchen now, cast a wrathful gaze at them as she was engulfed by jealousy.

“What’s wrong? Are you jealous?” Lucas asked Ashlyn with a grin.

“Jealous? Are you sure you’re not overthinking things?” Ashlyn chuckled.
