My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 824

Chapter 824

Right then, Howard's azure blue eyes resembled the dawn sky outside the window.

He gazed at Ashlyn with a melancholic expression on his face. “Can forgive me...”

Ashlyn hurriedly stood up. At once, she was greeted by the sight of crimson blood gushing out of his back at the position of the heart.

The blood stained his clothes red. His face grew increasingly paler, and his breathing increasingly weaker.

Silvermoon sneered, “Death is a fitting end for you, Howard, you traitor. But... what a pity, Ashlyn! I only fire one shot a day. It's your gain today.”

After saying that, he spun on his heel and left.

Ashlyn stared at Howard, who was dying in her arms. She didn't have any time to bother about Silvermoon, who was leaving.

She felt for her phone to call Luigi and the others over, but she didn't find her phone in her pocket.

D*mn it! Where's my phone?

Gritting her teeth, she had no choice but to carry Howard on her back and laboriously plodded out.

“Hang in there, Howard! I'm going to get you out of here right now! I don't like to owe anyone anything. I don't even want to owe someone a favor, let alone a life, so hang in there!”

“You... are still willing to save me?” Howard murmured weakly, blood spilling out of his mouth once more.

His tall body was draped over Ashlyn's skinny back. His mind felt exceedingly sluggish, and he was both sleepy and tired.

It was as though he had returned to the day when he first met her.

She stood at the entrance of the orphanage; her cool voice threaded with a hint of warmth that gave off a sense of amicability. “I've taken over this orphanage. All the kids here will be going to my training camp henceforth. I want to establish a hotel and make it the biggest establishment in Lake City! I want every child to have food and a job, becoming useful individuals to society.”

The orphanage was on the brink of closure due to a lack of funds. Consequently, the children were also at risk of homelessness.

It was her... Everything was because of her. Imperial Hotel existed because of her, and all of us stayed here. Later... Later, she took over several more orphanages that couldn't continue operating. She painstakingly nurtured all the children, and they all obtained new lives... because of her. Meanwhile, I was a pawn placed in the orphanage by ZZ Organization. I'm tired, so very exhausted...

All these years, he watched as everyone around him grew up, all responding to Ashlyn's hopes for them.

They all served patrons and contributed to society. Furthermore, many of them became outstanding figures in various industries.

Perhaps they weren't as strong and talented as Ashlyn, but they weren't too bad either.
