My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 691

Chapter 691

Naomi’s mind went blank.

How is this possible. Lucas is not my brother?

She could not believe that the brother she had always relied on—who supported and protected her all the time like a mountain on her back—was not related to her by blood.

Does that mean Ashlyn will cut off our relationship from now on? Because I will not be her true sister- in-law anymore.

Tears streamed down her cheeks like shooting stars.

She cried her heart out. However, her tears could not seem to bear the enormous sadness filling her heart at the moment.

“Three hundred million! No one can take it in your stead! Tonight, you must listen to me and spend the night with Mr. Zimmerman!” Livia patted her face before standing up with a proud face.

As she finished her words, a cold voice sounded behind her. “I will take the three hundred million for her!”

The room door opened, revealing a tall, sturdy man. He kicked the black-suited man guarding the door away and stepped into the room.

The man was wearing all black and had a grim look on his cold face. “Dad, Mom, is this why you come here—to put pressure on Naomi? What benefit will you get from doing that? Mr. Zimmerman is sixty years old this year. He’s old enough to be Naomi’s grandfather. How could you ask Naomi to spend a night with him? You’re putting her in utter danger!”

“Lucas, who do you think you are? Let me tell you. If not for the Nolan family, you’re only a nobody! You’re just an abandoned pawn! You’re rubbish thrown away from the family by that man!” Livia’s face darkened. The contempt toward Lucas in her eyes was suffocating.

“All these years, the Nolan family has educated you and handed over Nolan Group to you. Does that make you think you’re the God-chosen one?” she continued.

Naomi could not hear what Livia was talking about. She could only see Livia’s mouth opening and closing continuously.

Lucas’ stood in front of Naomi with his back facing her; his tall figure was blocking her sight.

She did not know what Lucas had said. There was nothing but silence left in her world, so quiet that she was on the verge of a breakdown.

She lost control of her mind and wanted to die.

“No… no… Lucas, don’t… Don’t fight them for me, please. It’s not worth it, Lucas,” begged Naomi, her hand clutching Lucas’ arm.

From the cruel expression on Livia’s face, Naomi could guess that Lucas had done something against their parents.

“Look at her! Doesn’t your heart feel pain when she calls you? I’m so touched by your brother-sister relationship!” Livia mocked.

In the meantime, Franklin’s cold gaze went back and forth between Lucas and Naomi.

“I will give you three hundred million. No one can take my sister away from me,” said Lucas, emphasizing every word.

I have to protect Naomi. Otherwise, what’s the meaning of her having me as an older brother?

“Lucas, even if you can give three hundred million this time, what about next time?” Franklin sneered with a deep voice.

It was as though the air was frozen by his words.

In the ward, Lucas locked his dark gaze on Franklin, who was in front of him. His face was dead cold. Meanwhile, the frostiness on Franklin’s emotionless face did not show any emotion human beings would normally carry.

Lucas had known from the beginning that Franklin did not possess any feelings. He was more cold- blooded than a venomous snake and more vicious than brutes.

It was simply impossible to see anything that showed a hint of humanity in him.

No, he does not deserve to be called a human. How can someone be so heartless to trade his own daughter? He’s too cruel to be a human!

“Dad, I advise you not to think of sending Naomi to other men.” Lucas’ aura was intimidating. Franklin, who stood in front of him, was almost taken aback by his domineering presence.

Then Franklin scoffed. “Lucas, my two daughters have lost their lives because of you! Now you’re trying to protect Naomi and teach me a lesson? Do you think you have the right to do that? If not for you, Claire wouldn’t have died. You and Ashlyn are responsible for Claire’s death!”

“Oh, my poor Grace. She fell off the cliff… Lucas, what on earth do we owe you? What does the Nolan family owe you? Why did you force Grace to death?” growled Livia.
