My one in a million wife [Ashlyn and Lucas] chapter 308
It took her some time to return to her usual self, declining in a croaky voice, “That won’t be necessary…”
She had denied the man’s offer because she had the capability to take her grandmother in as well.
After all, she was an influential and wealthy woman who possessed properties, cars, businesses, yielding influences over her underlings. In short, she didn’t have to rely on others.
Although she was touched by the man’s words, she had no intention of giving in to his suggestion because she didn’t want to owe him any favors.
“Why are you here?” Ashlyn turned around and asked, avoiding the man’s gaze in an attempt to divert the man’s attention.
Lucas looked at Ashlyn quietly, recalling the purpose of his visit.
Initially, he had dropped by because he wanted to keep her to himself in the emergency room once again.
He had planned to get the director to get Ashlyn over to tend to him once he reached the hospital but came across the feud Ashlyn was involved in as soon as he reached the emergency room.
Nonetheless, Lucas was certain fate must have had brought him to her because he showed up when she needed him the most.
Therefore, he was in a very good mood. It was obvious as it was written all over his face.
“My friend has been hospitalized. His name is Joseph. I believe you have run into him back in the day,” Lucas made use of his friends and lied to Ashlyn.
“What’s wrong with him?” Ashlyn asked as she raised her eyebrow.
“I think he has caught a cold or something. Actually, I’m not sure what’s wrong with him either, but he insists on checking in to the hospital.” Lucas could be considered a veteran con artist because he didn’t even flinch while telling a lie.
He would never admit he had dropped by the hospital because he wanted to spend some time with her again.
“If that’s the case, I’ll drop by and check on him. Where is his ward?” Ashlyn got up from her seat while she asked him.
Lucas just reached for his phone as he replied calmly, “I have no idea. Let me ask Spencer.”
Meanwhile, in a random ward on the fifth floor of the hospital.
Joseph, who was rendered speechless by Lucas’ absurd request, asked, “What is this so-called emergency? Why the hell does he need a so-called patient out of the blue?”
“That’s not the point, sir! I’m sure Mr. Nolan has proven his sincerity, right? Look! He has reserved the whole floor for you!” Spencer explained, tucking Joseph in.
“I don’t need him to prove his sincerity in such a way…” Joseph was rendered speechless by Spencer’s reply as well.
