My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 558

Chapter 558

Even though the manor sat in a large area, it lacked a family’s warmth.

It resembled a castle or even an invisible jail from afar.

When the gate slowly opened slowly, Lucas felt like the darkness devoured them.

He was reluctant to visit this place, yet he had no choice but to be here.

He held back his emotions and followed the butler to the lobby.

Meanwhile, nearly a hundred sturdy men had gathered in the dimly lit lobby.

A graceful man in a maroon shirt was sitting in the middle of the couch. He had the demeanor of a university professor or an academician.

His imposing aura and cold and sinister eyes made him look like a devil from hell.

The black-suited men in the lobby remained silent. The atmosphere was so depressing that they were gasping for breath.

The graceful man sitting on the couch was none other than Franklin Nolan, Lucas’ father. Franklin was a prominent figure because he owned Nolan Research Institute, a private research institution in France.

Because Livia ran the research institute with him, they lived in France for many years and rarely went home.

They didn’t even attend the funeral of Charles Nolan.

Lucas perceived them as the most unfeeling and coldest parents on earth.

“Mr. Nolan, Lucas has returned.”

“Come in,” Franklin replied blandly.

He put a hand on the armrest of the couch and caressed the black cat with the other.

The black cat meowed uncomfortably, probably because Franklin stroked it too hard.

Crack! The next moment, he broke the black cat’s neck.

Although the men witnessed Franklin killed the cat and threw it to the floor, none of them dared to pick up the dead body to bury it.
