Lilian couldn’t fathom the reason Lucas fell head-over-heels in love with Ashlyn, when he would cast
her aside indifferently without a second thought.
“Both of you should join me in hell!” Lilian made up her mind and for the last time, she catapulted her
way over to them with all her might.
Seeing Lilian decided to go all out, Ashlyn stopped holding back. She raised her leg and sent her flying
with a merciless kick. Consequently, Lilian fell to the ground and puked a mouthful of blood before
passing out.
Lucas stepped forward in an attempt to figure out if she had passed on or passed out because they
couldn’t be sure about it, but Ashlyn got in his way and stopped him. “Allow me,” she suggested.
She squatted down and placed her hand in front of the woman’s nose before announcing, “She’s
dead.”
Lilian, who had passed on, had a pale and haggard face that seemed even eerier under broad daylight.
“What an insolent fool!” Lucas made a call and instructed indifferently, “Get rid of Lilian’s corpse
immediately.”
Once he hung up the call, he reached over in an attempt to hold Ashlyn’s hand, but she evaded him.
Lucas asked gloomily, “What’s wrong?”
It was evident he was irritated by Ashlyn’s response because he couldn’t fathom the reason she moved
away from him.
“I don’t want you anywhere near me for the time being because there are bloodstains all over me.”
Ashlyn replied nonchalantly. She then attempted to divert the man’s attention. “How do you know we’re
here?”
“Ever since I figured out she was the one who pushed you down the stairs, I have been searching for
you everywhere.” Lucas stretched his arms in another attempt to embrace Ashlyn, but she moved away
from him once more.
Actually, Ashlyn was afraid that Lucas might have been contaminated by the poison when he held her
just as he found her. Even though she was faintly contaminated, the poison had proven to be highly
effective. She couldn’t be certain of the side effects that she would experience, so she wanted to stay
away from Lucas for the time being and avoid all forms of physical contact with him.
“Why didn’t you tell me anything about it?” Lucas broke the silence out of the blue, interrupting Ashlyn’s
thought process.
“Why should I tell you about it? I don’t have any evidence to prove her guilty, either.”
After all, only Ashlyn and Lilian were at the scene just now; there were no witnesses. Thus, Ashlyn
couldn’t be certain Lucas would buy into her words even if she were to bring it up in front of him.
“I have faith in you. Even without any evidence, I trust you unconditionally.” Lucas looked into Ashlyn’s
eyes with determination.
Ashlyn was bewildered due to the man’s stupendous remark. “If that’s the case, thank you so much,
Mr. Nolan.”
“Ashlyn, even though you refuse to admit it verbally, I can feel it. You have been behaving differently
whenever you’re around me lately. Are you sure I’m not the one you have in your mind?” Lucas asked
in a serious tone.
Ashlyn was dumbstruck with terror all of a sudden. It took her a few seconds before she returned to her
senses. “I’m kinda hungry! What’s for lunch today?”
“Stop trying to divert my attention because that’s not going to work. By the way, your attempt sucks.”
Ashlyn looked elsewhere and avoided Lucas’s gaze. However, she could detect the man’s penetrating
gaze as he had his eyes glued to her.
She heaved a sigh and asked, “Lucas, do you really think things will work out between us?”
“If it’s impossible, we wouldn’t have been engaged to one another for four years. Since we were able to
get into a relationship back in the day, I’m sure we’ll have a great future together once we sort it out,”
Lucas assured Ashlyn with utmost determination.
Meanwhile, Ashlyn lowered her gaze and took a peek at her left palm. She noticed a small part of her
palm and her wrist were bruised.
She quickly pulled down her sleeves to conceal the bruises on her hand and brushed the man off.
“That sounds like a topic for another day. Let’s forget about it for now.”
She first succumbed to spirogyra, which had been troubling her all along. And now she was
contaminated with the poison produced by NN Terrorist Group. She knew she had to figure out the
exact effects of the poison.
For the time being, she couldn’t be bothered by trivial matters such as their relationship.
She walked past the man nonchalantly and returned to the manor. Although it was a sunny day, she
had a relatively gloomy expression.
…
As soon as Ashlyn reached the kitchen, she put on gloves and started making pasta in tomato sauce
from scratch.
Even though it was a relatively simple dish, the chef required finesse in order to turn it into a delicacy.
Ashlyn would have to pay attention to every single aspect involved in the preparation of the dish.
Otherwise, it would turn out to be just another ordinary plate of pasta.
Before long, she had the main course ready along with a few side dishes.
Lucas, who had taken his seat at the dining table, was tempted by her creations.
Although it seemed to be a relatively simple meal, the dishes prepared were all Lucas’s favorites.
