My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 324

Chapter 324

Their Bentley moved and turned around the corner, but little did they know that a group of black-clad men was sneaking up and approaching Bayview Villa under the cover of the night.

It was in the dead of the night. Deathly silent. Every living creature in the area seemed to have fallen asleep.

The group of well-trained men in black slipped unnoticed into the villa.

They crept in one by one, making sure each of their members made it in. Then, they prepared themselves to split up to head to their respective objectives.

Click!

Suddenly, all the lights in the villa came on. The whole villa immediately lit up like a Christmas tree.

The men in black stopped in their tracks, totally caught off-guard. Their eyes zoomed in on a woman dressed in black in the middle of the living room.

The slender woman wore a long, black trench coat. An air of mystery and cold indifference surrounded her.

Her jet-black hair reached her waist. Her eyes were shielded by her bangs. Yet, one could still feel the bone-chilling gaze emanating from the depths of her eyes.

The sudden dazzle of lights made her squint.

Having sat in the dark for too long, her eyes were not accustomed to the abrupt flood of the lightings.

Her cold gaze scanned every direction, marking the position of every intruder that had made it in.

She curled her lips, and with half-closed eyelids, uttered snidely, “Seems like you all have high expectations of me to send so many assassins to kill me tonight. I feel honored.”

The leader of the intruders squeezed his fingers. Who was this woman?

From her looks, instead of them ambushing her, she seemed to be the one waiting for them from the start!

Ashlyn raised her eyes callously, focusing on the assailants ahead of her unblinkingly; a cold determination escaped her looks.

Her sharp, unflinching stare shot straight at the leader of the intruders. He felt her murderous gaze piercing him and took a step back in horror. He immediately steeled himself, even though his heart was beating wildly. Such a terrifying presence!

Just then, he remembered that he had accepted a huge sum of money for this job from the Haddock Group. Hence, he was determined and he took out his handgun to aim at Ashlyn.

Grasping the gun brought him a sense of security. He calmed his mind to focus on the job. “I’m sorry. Someone wants you dead. Don’t blame me as I’m merely doing my job.”

Ashlyn remained seated, her red lips twitching slightly as she sneered, “So they sent a bunch of useless trash? You are not even worthy.”

Sensing the insult, the man angrily threatened, “What did you just say? You’d better believe that I can kill you with just one shot!”

After all, he was the leader of one of the famous clandestine gangs in Lake City, respected by his lackeys and others.

Yet, this woman dared to make fun of him!

Blazing with anger, he stepped forward and grabbed her coat collar. He stared fiercely at her.

So what if she has a sharp gaze? She is just a woman after all!

His fierce stare transcended into a murderous look full of malice. Right now he was single-mindedly determined to kill this woman!

“Let me advise you… let go of me!” her monotonous voice warned. Ashlyn slowly raised her head as her black pupils stared at the man icily.

“You b****! You’re just a woman. Don’t you think you can…” Her continuous cold stare pissed him off more than anything, but before he could finish…

Bam!

A loud noise interrupted his words.

The other intruders watched the unfolding scene in utter shock.

In just a short moment, they saw their leader threatening Ashlyn menacingly. The next thing they witnessed was how she pinned their leader to the ground instantly with only one hand.

They did not manage to catch what happened. What was going on?

How fast did she move?

How strong is she?

Everyone present was too stunned to react.

Ashlyn looked at the man on the floor. Her hand was choking his neck sending him into a coma.

She was expressionless.

“Trash!”

The word escaped her lips, as her fingers tightened their grip onto the man’s neck.

Her fingers moved as if they had minds of their own. Being well-acquainted with the human anatomy, she swiftly located the weak points on his neck. With a sudden wring of her wrist, the grim sound of bones snapping could be heard.

In the chilly, still night, the cracking sounded crisp and clear.

The coldness… The silence… The atmosphere was even more deathly quiet than before!

All the assailants present stared in disbelief.

The slender figure of a woman let off her grasp from the dead man and slowly got up from the ground.
