My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 424

Chapter 424

There was a sweet, but strange aroma wafting up through the air.

But the men had taken the antidote in advance, so the aroma had no effect on them at all.

Reedman looked at Ashlyn impishly with a wicked smile. “Ms. X, O’Brien, and I are the judges of this Fashion Week. Let’s talk about your brand’s runway show today, shall we?”

Ashlyn held the unconscious Shannon with both hands and held her breath to prevent the aroma from escaping into her own breath.

But she couldn’t take it anymore after a few minutes.

She knew about the ugliness of human nature and that the reality was dark.

But little did she expect these two big names in fashion to be so vile and disgusting.

One was an Oscar winner with fans all over the globe and the other was an icon in the hearts of many designers in the fashion industry, a role model to look up to.

Not only did they have a sickening deal with Megan, but they also even wanted to take advantage of her then.

“Oh, you’re actually holding your breath?” O’Brien laughed heartily, seeing that Ashlyn’s lips were set in a hard line. “This room has been infused with ecstasy aroma. How long can you hold your breath? A second, half an hour or an hour?”

Seized with a sudden impulse, Reedman came up to Ashlyn and pushed Shannon away from her arms, causing the former to fall limply on the ground.

“Oh baby, you’ll die if you don’t breathe.”

Ashlyn shot daggers at these two despicable and shameless men through squinted eyes.

I can’t breathe in the aroma. If I do, Shannon and I will be screwed. If I leave Shannon behind, these two pieces of rubbish won’t be able to trap me at all.

But if I leave Shannon behind and walk away, she will be screwed.

Right then, the men surrounded Ashlyn from both sides, ready to make advances to her when she split her legs abruptly in midair, sending them flying and knocking them down.

“Shit! Did she just kick me?!”

“You b*tch! You got a death wish, huh?!”

European men were born tall and burly, and since they were from the film and fashion industry, it was only natural that they paid more attention to fitness and had excellent physical strength. Furthermore, Reedman’s hobby on usual days was boxing. It was only because he was caught off guard that Ashlyn could attack him just now.

Regaining his composure, he got up from the ground and lunged toward Ashlyn, who was walking toward the window.

Ashlyn dodged him alertly and leaped toward the windowsill, reaching for the window.

However, the two men were not to be trifled with either.

O’Brien held her down on her shoulders as Reedman threw a punch at her stomach.

Ashlyn gritted her teeth at the impact, the oxygen in her lungs running out. Even though she had had special breath-holding training and could hold her breath longer than an average person, she was starting to feel woozy then after holding on for nearly ten minutes.

She needed fresh air or else she would suffocate from the lack of oxygen.

The punch hurt so much that she couldn’t help but gasp in pain, streaks of red forming in her eyes.

Just then, the sweet aroma infused with ecstasy rushed down her throat and into her chest.

Her head pounded, and with almost all her strength, she shook off the two men, slamming open the window from the inside.

Ashlyn quickly took a big breath as fresh air gushed into the room.

The aftereffect of the aromatic ecstasy was extremely strong. Ashlyn was surprised that her feet gave way, even when she had only inhaled a little.

At once, she clenched her teeth and bit her lip, and only then did she regain her balance.

Neither Reedman nor O’Brien had expected Ashlyn to be a hard-headed person.

Not only was she skilled in martial arts, but she was also surprisingly intelligent.

With fresh air pouring in, a large portion of the aromatic ecstasy in the room dissipated.

The sweet, but strange aroma dissipated as well. But Ashlyn’s body was getting weaker and weaker.

Seeing that Ashlyn was supporting herself on the wall, Reedman couldn’t help but laugh out loud in triumph as he reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist. “Don’t you know that I’m a mega movie star? Don’t you think I’m handsome? Besides, how can you win an award without giving a little something?”
