My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 544

Chapter 544

Before he could finish, Ashlyn’s eyes landed on that handsome face of his before she interrupted him, “Naomi is in my movie and she’s the leading actress, so don’t you send her abroad.”

Ashlyn’s straightforward words made Lucas’ heart sink immediately as reality hit him like a truck.

I would have sent Naomi away sooner if I knew she would steal Ashlyn’s attention away from me.

I can’t believe my wife came here personally just for her!

What did she do to get such treatment from Ashlyn?

More determined to send Naomi abroad, Lucas took a breath. “I don’t think she should stay here.”

“Well, I think it’s fine. It’s cruel to send a girl like her out there alone like she’s an orphan,” responded Ashlyn with a stoic expression to the cold-hearted man.

On top of that, Greg has an eye for talent, so I believe Naomi’s the right person since he chose her.

Lucas looked at the woman with long black hair, fiery red lips, and cold temperament. Her radiance, amplified by the lights in his office, was almost too much for his eyes to bear.

What about me?

“You should have pity on me too. A divorced man like me is just like an orphan as well!”

Standing up, Lucas’ tall stature almost cast a shadow over Ashlyn. His handsome face darkened so much that it could send shivers up anyone’s spine.

When Spencer reached the doorway, the scene in the office frightened him so much that he dared not approach and turned to lean on the wall.

What was it that Mr. Nolan said?

That he’s like an orphan? He even asked Ms. Berry to have pity on him.

Damn it! Will I be in trouble for witnessing the other side of Mr. Nolan?

Spencer started to panic.

Next, he heard Ashlyn’s voice as she responded, “What are you playing at, Lucas?”

Spencer then carefully peeked into the room from the corner of his eye.

What he saw was the tall and slender woman slowly approaching Lucas before she gently lifted his chin with her finger.

I can’t believe how bold Ms. Berry is!

Lucas narrowed his eyes and shuddered when he felt Ashlyn’s finger gently rubbing his stubble. Right then, he could feel a warm sensation travelling down south.

After taking a deep breath, he pushed Ashlyn away before scoffing at her, “Don’t think I’ll agree to it just because you teased me.”

Does she have a thing for teasing me now?

She has done this several times now but still refused to marry me.

What’s even more upsetting is the fact that she came over just to talk about Naomi.

Is she just using me?

Because she has certainly done that a couple of times now.

Not to mention that she even used me as an antidote this time.

Lucas quickly turned to look worriedly at Ashlyn when he suddenly thought of her health.

Is her body completely healed?

But she’s already hard at work for the movie.

Damn it!

Doesn’t Jared, that piece of trash, know that she’s still weak? I should have known that he’s not reliable at all!

Heartbroken at the thought of her condition, Lucas reached out and embraced Ashlyn. “I’ll do whatever you want. Just promise me that you won’t work too hard.”

Wow, things sure took a quick turn! Didn’t he just say it was useless to tease him?

Spencer was puzzled at how Lucas’ attitude changed so quickly.

With her face buried in Lucas’ muscular chest, Ashlyn blushed and the corner of her lips was slightly lifted.

Lucas sighed inwardly as he was once again reminded of how much he cared for Ashlyn.

I just want to be your lawful husband. Is that too much to ask?

On the set, Blair felt a stab to his heart when Naomi told him excitedly that Lucas would not be sending her away.
