My one in a million wife [Ashlyn and Lucas] chapter 193
Before she left, Ashlyn Berry nodded and squinted her eyes at Hayden Haddock and his men. She spoke to the manager, “I believe you guys know what to do with them.”
“Of course.” The manager responded at once.
9pm at night.
In front of the Haddock household’s gates.
Out of the blue, a minibus drove into the driveway.
Two burly men, all clad in black, dumped a gunny sack in front of the gates and left the place in a hurry.
The guards at the gates were shocked by what they saw when they pried open the sack.
Inside the sack was Hayden Haddock, all covered in blood.
At that point in time, Hayden’s friends were also dropped off in front of their houses in their gunny sacks.
All of their families exploded in anger when they saw their kin all marred with their own blood.
Who would dare hurt their precious children?
Who had the guts to offend these many important families in Lake City?
At the hospital.
Blair Nolan was asleep in his bed.
Naomi was sitting on a couch in one corner. She had changed into a fresh set of clothes and was now getting some shut-eye.
The time seemed to pass unbearably slow in the room.
Lucas Nolan glared at two of his useless siblings.
“Tell me what happened at the club.”
“My boyfriend tricked me into a private room at the club and before I know it, Hayden was forcing alcohol down my throat. He even wanted to r-rape me.”
Naomi was choking on her tears. Her pitiful eyes were bloodshot. “I didn’t know my boyfriend was one of Hayden’s people. Lucas, I was wrong! I will be more careful next time!”
“You imbecile!” Lucas was furious at his sister for being so reckless.
The Haddock family was around for a long time, and thus it wasn’t surprising that they had a lot of resources at their disposal. Moreover, the Haddocks were greedy people. They wanted to monopolize the real estate industry in Lake City, which would allow them to control the economy in that region.
Dixon Haddock was a rising star that the Haddock family had bred to expand their family’s business.
Of course, the Nolan Group had had a hard time because of him.
