My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 482

Chapter 482

At that moment, he merely looked like one of those useless husbands stuck between his mother and the wife.

“I didn’t do anything... I really didn’t do anything!” cried Mrs. Fraser weakly.

There was no way she was going to spill the truth in front of Lochlan. She couldn’t bear for him to hate her.

The little b***h was just too important to her son. If she admitted to everything now, that would mean that all her suffering would have been in vain.

The current Mrs. Fraser no longer bore any resemblance to the dignified and graceful woman from earlier. Instead, she looked completely disheveled while slumped on the floor.

“Ms. Berry, I know you are Charlotte’s teacher. However, from the moment my son brought her home, we’ve been feeding her and clothing her. When she was sick, we brought her to the doctor. When she was in pain, we comforted her. I don’t understand why you think I have anything to do with her disappearance just because I went to the mansion!” wailed Mrs. Fraser as tears ran down her face.

Though she was speaking to Ashlyn, her eyes never left Lochlan. “I might not like her, but at the end of the day, the Fraser family has raised her for so many years. How could I possibly do anything to harm her?”

Mrs. Fraser then broke down even more, as if she had suffered a great wrong.

Lochlan couldn’t bear to see his mother like this, so he crouched down next to her and hugged her tightly.

“Mom, please don’t cry. We’ll find Lottie soon. I’m sure she’ll be okay.”

“I... I’m like every other mother. I don’t have any other wish other than to see my son get married and for my daughter-in-law to give me a cute and healthy grandchild. All I wanted was for Charlotte to move back in with me when my son gets a girlfriend. But she refused, so I scolded her a little. Was that really wrong of me? I swear I only had our family’s best interest at heart!”

Mrs. Fraser was bawling so hard she could barely catch her breath at this point.

The sight brought tears to Mr. Fraser’s eyes too. “Ms. Berry, you’ve made quite the scene today. I can promise you that us Frasers won’t take this lying down!”

Mrs. Fraser pushed Lochlan aside and ran up to Ashlyn. “Ms. Berry, if you still won’t believe me, then I’ll just have to jump into the glass case.”

With that, she gathered all her strength and leaped into the case before anyone even had a chance to stop her.
