My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 828

Chapter 828

Lucas' eyes brimmed with indulgence.

Someone who would step out at such a critical juncture and lend her a hand with just a single call must be very close to her. She's much too secretive.

“It was a man?” His gaze darkened a shade.

“Yeah, it was a man.”

Exasperation swamped Ashlyn. Why did it end up being a question of gender now?

She hastily changed the subject. “I've got to return to the country in another two days, so I won't be able to continue keeping you company here.”

“And so?” Lucas' eyes glinted dangerously.

In the past few days, they had been spending their time leisurely as though having been given a new lease on life.

It had been exceedingly relaxing.

“Nothing. I'm only to be away for a few days. Don't always be so childish, okay?” Ashlyn cradled her forehead as a headache assailed her.

Lucas went silent. Is she disdaining me?

“Let's go and eat... Are you hungry?”

“I know of a pretty good restaurant.”

Half an hour later, the car came to a steady stop in front of a high-end restaurant.

As soon as Ashlyn alighted from the car, Lucas took her hand and led her into the restaurant.

Ashlyn was struck dumb.

He's really getting increasingly domineering.

Mere moments after they had taken their seats, a woman's elegant voice sounded out of the blue. “What a coincidence, Mr. Nolan.”

Ashlyn cast her gaze in the direction of that voice, only to be greeted by the sight of a woman dressed in high-end customized clothes, her countenance striking and figure slender, standing in front of Lucas.

With his face devoid of expression, Lucas swept a gaze over the woman. “Sorry, but I don't know you.”

A flash of surprise flitted across Kimberly's azure blue eyes.
