My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 88

Chapter 87

When Jared arrived home, Ashlyn was reviewing some documents in the living room.

“What are you reading?” The man loosened his necktie and sat down on the rug in front of the sofa. He crossed his legs slightly as there was no room for him to rest his legs, making him look casual and relaxed.

“I have to perform two surgeries tomorrow and the day after, so I’m making some notes.” Ashlyn made her notes while reading the documents. She looked so gentle in her beige loungewear. All hints of her being a cold person were nowhere to be found.

Her fair cheeks and side profile looked perfect. She looked even more alluring as she wrote her notes with the black pen in hand.

“You’re so hardworking.” There was a slight stench of alcohol on Jared, but it wasn’t strong enough to disgust others.

He struggled a little as he pulled out his phone. After shaking his head to clear his head up, he forced his eyes open and said, “Boss, do you know you’re trending on Twitter again?”

Ashlyn was busy with her work so she didn’t have time to check what was going on Twitter.

She wasn’t the type to frequently check her Twitter account too. So with her eyes still fixed on her book, she replied casually, “What is it?”

“See for yourself.” Jared showed her the contents on his phone.

Ashlyn took a glance at the trending page and cocked an eyebrow. Mrs. Nolan had already divorced Mr. Nolan. “What’s all this frenzy about?”

“Do you want me to remove it from the trending topic?” Jared asked as he lazily swiped through his Twitter. He had gone for a round of drinks with a few rich heirs of Lake City at a famous club. One of the heirs, Mr. Watts, brought a bottle of aged wine from his family’s ancestral collection. However, nobody expected the wine to be so strong.

He was feeling really dizzy but he forced himself to sit in front of Ashlyn.

Ashlyn felt like she didn’t need to know about this insignificant stuff, so she replied indifferently, “Don’t bother.”

As soon as she finished talking, her phone rang.

It was Lucas.

Ashlyn furrowed her brows. It’s already so late, why did he call me instead of going to bed?

Something doesn’t seem right.
