My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 786

Chapter 786

Perhaps it had been too long since the man in the box had seen any light, for he subconsciously lifted his hand to shield his eyes. Only after some time had passed, and he had probably adapted to it, did he lower his hand.

He then stood up from the box and scrutinized his surroundings curiously.

When his gaze fell on Mary, he was promptly elated. “Why are you here as well, Mrs. Berry? I'm so glad to see you!”

Mary's face blanched, and she could not help taking several steps back.

“Who are you? I don't know you!” she shrieked.

“I'm Mario from the host club, Mrs. Berry! Back then, you were exceedingly satisfied with my service. Have you forgotten? You even said you'd bring me abroad after Mr. Berry had gone to prison!” Mario jumped out of the box and rushed over to Mary.

The host club?

The instant the crowd heard those three words, their jaws dropped in shock.

The look in their eyes as they regarded Mary brimmed with ridicule and scorn alongside disdain.

Even Ashlyn was obviously taken aback. She reflexively glanced at Lucas, only to meet the man's bewitching eyes.

This man... How did he come up with such an idea? Many families in the upper classes enjoy indulging in the pleasures of the flesh, so it's nothing new. But to put it in the open and make it public... it's a first.

With her face drained of all color, Mary hid behind Penelope. “Stay away from me! I really don't know you, so don't slander me! I'm pure and innocent, never having done such a shameful thing as patronizing a host club!”

Penelope was likewise stunned.

Mom went to a host club and hooked up with a gigolo, betraying Dad?

For a moment, Bianca's vision went black.

I've tried my best to uphold the marriage agreement between her and Nicholas, but never had I expected her to be so foolish that she hooked up with a gigolo! How is the Yates family to hold its head up in Maredania henceforth?

“Mrs. Berry, I was kidnapped and brought here for no reason. You're the only person I know. Why are you hiding from me? Sure enough, sugar mommies are heartless!”

Mario was so irate that he stomped his feet.

Meanwhile, Mary felt utterly mortified. She felt weak all over, and she almost could not remain on her feet.

It was as though an invisible hand was squeezing her heart to a pulp. What should I do? Am I to become everyone's laughingstock today?
