My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 718

Chapter 718

The only X Penelope knew was Ms. X from LX Corporation.

Hence, it wasn't possible that she had met X before this.

Whatever. My uncle is a viscount. It will be a piece of cake for me to meet X. I'll just have to ask. Anyway, there's no harm in lying since both Jenny and Hera hails from Lake City in H Nation. They won't know if I'm lying through my teeth or not.

Penelope felt rather smug upon that thought. I'm so glad I come from such an influential family and have such a good uncle.

“Have you really met X before? I bet he must be a very handsome man, right? His designs are bold, youthful, and stylish.”

Penelope smiled and pretended to be cool about it. “X is a mysterious person. I can't give away his details just like that. I'll introduce you to him once I get the chance.”

“Really?”

Jenny's eyes lit up as her interest was piqued. She stared at Penelope in disbelief. She had a feeling that Penelope was bluffing.

“Why would I lie to you?” Penelope smiled and patted Jenny on the back.

Ashlyn watched on as Penelope bluffed her way through the conversation like a madman. She arched a brow and kept quiet as she passed them by.

It had been a long time since Penelope met Ashlyn.

The woman was beautiful and poised, and she possessed a commanding presence. Penelope couldn't help but feel jealous when she saw how much confidence Ashlyn carried.

The only X Penelope knew was Ms. X from LX Corporation.

Even as a woman herself, she couldn't deny the fact that she was attracted to Ashlyn's aura.

Penelope gritted her teeth in anger. Urgh, I can't stand her.

Nevertheless, she couldn't help but feel smug when she recalled she was in a higher social class than Ashlyn.

Penelope managed her facial expressions and smiled at Ashlyn. “It's been a long time since we've met, Ashlyn.”

“Does it make any difference if we meet or not?” Ashlyn retorted.

Penelope kept her cool and replied, “Ashlyn, have you heard of Director X? It seems like Ms. X from LX Corporation is no match for Director X from X Corporation at all!”

She scrutinized Ashlyn's face closely, trying to work out if she was indeed Director X.
