Chapter 446
Ashlyn managed to make it out of the accident unscathed, but she was confused. Since the entire space was
carpeted, nothing should have made her trip. Thankfully, she was an observant woman and managed to respond in
the nick of time. Otherwise, she would be gravely injured if she were to fall from such a height.
Lilian blamed herself with a guilty look. “Ms. Berry, I’m so sorry! I didn’t take good care of you. If anything happens
to you, I’ll definitely die of guilt.”
She had a pitiable front blaming herself for what happened as though she was the one at fault. Ashlyn was the one
met with the accident, but it was Lilian’s eyes that were brimmed with tears, as though the latter was the injured
one.
In return, Ashlyn frowned and remarked sarcastically, “Excuse me? I’m not hurt at all. Why don’t you save your
tears for the time being?”
“Ms. Berry, that’s such a cool move! Are you a martial arts practitioner?” Lilian wiped her tears and asked curiously.
“Yes. If anyone tries to assault me, I’ll give them a taste of their own medicine,” Ashlyn stared at Lilian in the eyes
as she replied callously.
Once she finished her sentence, she walked into the kitchen right away.
Lilian pursed her lips before going after Ashlyn.
She had prepared a relatively simple meal for them, but Ashlyn savored the food without any complaint.
Once Lucas joined Ashlyn in the kitchen, Lilian served him his meal immediately. “Mr. Nolan, please try some of the

“I only want to eat the things she cooks,” Lucas replied indifferently with a poker face.
Having just bathed, his short hair was disheveled and he looked especially seductive in his black bathrobe.
It was the first time Lilian encountered such a wild side of Lucas, given she had always seen him in formal wear.
Although Lucas seemed extremely different from the way he usually presented himself, the fact remained he was
an attractive man.
Lilian flushed involuntarily as she stared at him.
“M-Mr. Nolan, I-I have spent a lot of effort to prepare these...”
“What about it? Leave us alone,” Lucas replied nonchalantly.
Lilian’s eyes widened in disbelief. She doubted her ears, wondering if she had mistaken the man’s words.
“I have completed my meal.” Ashlyn wiped her lips clean. She felt uncomfortable as soon as she detected the
lustful gaze Lilian cast on Lucas.
Without a second thought, she leaned over and adjusted the man’s bathrobe to cover his exposed chest as she
suggested, “I’m tired. Let’s call it a day.”
Lucas lowered his gaze and smirked, his eyes glued to the hand in front of his chest. “Sure. Let’s call it a day.”
As soon as he finished his sentence, he got up from his seat holding Ashlyn’s hand, and the two left the kitchen
side-by-side.
Lilian, all alone in the kitchen now, cast a wrathful gaze at them as she was engulfed by jealousy.
“What’s wrong? Are you jealous?” Lucas asked Ashlyn with a grin.
“Jealous? Are you sure you’re not overthinking things?” Ashlyn chuckled.
Lucas pinched Ashlyn’s reddened earlobe. “Look at your blushing ears. If you’re not jealous, what’s wrong with your
ears? Why did you adjust my bathrobe?”
“Ha! I couldn’t bear to see Lilian’s lustful look; it was disgusting!” Ashlyn pretended to be calm as she asserted, “To
begin with, why do you even have such revealing clothes on? If you’re trying to seduce her, you should give me a
heads-up. I’ll definitely leave you alone the next time you expose your chest in front of her.”
Ashlyn noticed she hod occidentolly sidetrocked with her speech.
Whot the heck om I tolking obout? Oh, God!
“Are you sure you’re not jeolous? Why does it sound quite ocerbic to me?” Lucos osked rhetoricolly, teosing Ashlyn
with o bright smile becouse he couldn’t hold bock his joy.

However, Lucos brought on obrupt holt to the intimote session. He stopped kissing once his lips come into contoct
with Ashlyn’s velvety lips.
Ashlyn noticed she had accidentally sidetracked with her speech.
What the heck am I talking about? Oh, God!
“Are you sure you’re not jealous? Why does it sound quite acerbic to me?” Lucas asked rhetorically, teasing Ashlyn
with a bright smile because he couldn’t hold back his joy.
The moment Ashlyn raised her head and she saw the man’s stunning smile, her heart raced.
Even though Lucas seemed extremely intimidating when he wasn’t smiling, he could easily take a person’s breath
away the moment he expressed his joy.
God must have blessed him abundantly because he could easily charm a woman with his handsome face. His
stunning visual could easily put other men in the world to shame.
Ashlyn could barely pull herself together because she was right next to the gorgeous man.
Similarly, Lucas’s heart skipped a beat the moment he turned around and noticed the woman’s trembling eyelids.
He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead affectionately, leaving the warmth of his kiss on her flawless
skin.
Ashlyn gasped in return and allowed Lucas to run his lips across her face, all the way down to her lips.
However, Lucas brought an abrupt halt to the intimate session. He stopped kissing once his lips came into contact
with Ashlyn’s velvety lips.
