There was a trace of coldness in the silent air.
Noticing the awkward situation, Ashlyn said resignedly, “Look at that stone-cold face of yours. You're scaring them.”
Who does he think he is? The Grim Reaper?
Lucas kept quiet while his bodyguards stood neatly in two lines by the door. He just wanted to enjoy the peaceful moment.
Lucas greedily inhaled the familiar fragrance coming from Ashlyn.
It has been so long. Too long since I'm this close to her.
However, he did not dare to get any closer or approach her.
He knew that even though the murderer was found, Franklin would still be watching him in the dark.
Franklin was not as simple as he seemed. He was more than just a research center director, and one should not underestimate Franklin's power. Lucas dared not make any rash moves before knowing he could get rid of Franklin's threat.
Ashlyn did not eat the crawfish that he peeled. Instead, she poured them onto Naomi's plate and said, “I'm full. You have these.”
All hail Ashlyn! My goddess is indeed amazing! Do people that reject Mr. Nolan still exists? If it isn't Ashlyn, who else would have the guts to do so? Tinsor could not help but look up to Ashlyn.
Besides Tinsor, who was impressed, Blair widened his eyes in disbelief as well.
In Blair's eyes, Lucas was an imposing person, and only Ashlyn could do whatever she wanted without any regard.
Lucas' expression darkened after hearing what Ashlyn said.
However, it was merely for a moment. He then poured a glass of water for her. “Here, drink this.”
A hint of mockery flashed across Ashlyn's eyes.
We've broken up. What kind of show are you putting up here? Why are you pretending to be attentive to me?
The corner of Ashlyn's lip curled slightly, and she stood up. Ashlyn did not bother to look at Lucas as she spoke to Tinsor and Blair. “Are you guys leaving with me or not?”
The two of them instantly flashed a smile. “Yes, we're following you.”
What a joke! We'll never pass a chance to take a ride with God of Cars, S. We probably used up all our luck just for today.
