My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 823

Chapter 823

Ashlyn regarded Howard coldly. “I never expected you to be a member of ZZ Organization. Why did you infiltrate Imperial Hotel? I'd been waiting for you all to make a move, but never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine that you'd sabotage Imperial Hotel. Did the employees here not treat you well, Howard? How could you callously make a move against them?”

Every single word out of her mouth carried intense recrimination.

Howard felt so guilty that he didn't quite dare look her in the eye.

He lowered his eyes, pain etched across his striking features.

“Lyn... that wasn't what happened... I can explain.”

“I'm not here to listen to you two confronting each other.” Silvermoon's cool voice abruptly rang out. He aimed the gun in his hand right between Ashlyn's eyes. “You're really an eyesore to be alive. How about... I send you to meet your maker?”

A hint of devilish allure adorned his gaze. With his long legs, he made for a tall and imposing figure.

Despite standing amidst the rubble, he still resembled an elegant nobleman without a trace of dirt sullying him.

It had others gripped by the urge to remove the mask covering his face for a look at his countenance beneath.

“The members of ZZ Organization are nothing more than a bunch of scaredy-cats, having no guts to face others with your real self. The same goes for both you and Howard.”

Ashlyn's heart twisted painfully.

She once poured out genuine affection toward Howard, taking care of him like he was a five-year-old kid.

Verily, she never thought that the man would betray Imperial Hotel.

When she heard from Jim that not only was Howard running a fever, but he also found bloody cotton swabs and gauze in the trash can in the latter's room, she was basically certain that the man who had her deliver her favorite jewelry was Howard.

Besides, he was the only person who would ask about such a private matter as her favorite jewelry.

In the past four years of her marriage, Lucas gifted her many gifts, including jewelry.

In fact, they were numerous beyond number.

However, Lucas merely regarded it as accomplishing a mission back then.

He didn't put any emotions into it. For that reason, he and other men, such as Jared and the rest, would never ask her a question pertaining to her jewelry.

Other than the jewelry Howard gifted her that she expressed her liking for, her subordinates like Jared and Luigi usually gifted her cars, guns, daggers, and the like.

They never gave her any jewelry.
