Chapter 576
“Let me take a look at your face.” Ashlyn stood up, leaned forward, and carefully tucked Charlotte’s fringe away
from her face.
The girl’s face was full of scars with uneven texture and dark spots. Oh no. It was raining heavily on that day, and
the needles weren’t removed on time. Now the needles became rusty, and the rust seemed to have seeped into
her skin.
“The scars can be healed, but it’s difficult to get the spots off your skin.” Ashlyn felt her heart ached and let out a
sigh. “Lottie, your facial treatment will be a long and strenuous process. Will you be able to persist till the end?”
The moment Charlotte heard that there was still hope, her eyes gleamed brightly with hope. “Yes, I can! I can do
it!”
“That’s great.” Ashlyn patted the back of her hand.
Fae seemed contented as well. “Ashlyn, you’re the best.”
“I’ll hire the best plastic surgeon overseas for her treatment.”
“Does Lottie need to go overseas?” Fae asked in astonishment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yes. I know of a world-class plastic surgeon overseas. He should be able to treat Lottie. But she’ll have to stay
abroad for a while.”
Fae stared at Charlotte reluctantly. “I’ll go with Lottie then.”
Ashlyn never expected that Fae and Charlotte had become so close and attached to one another.
She could tell that Fae genuinely loved Charlotte.
“It’s okay, mum. I’ve troubled you so much already. I believe I can handle this on my own.” Charlotte gave her a
sincere smile.
I should learn to be independent and live on my own. I can’t rely on people all the time.
Overwhelmed by compassion for this young but strong girl, Fae was worried to see Charlotte staying alone in a
strange country.
Just then, an idea cross Fae’s mind. Since my son has nothing better to do at home, I should ask him to accompany
Lottie to live overseas.
“Alright. I’ll arrange it as soon as possible.” Ashlyn promised them while nodding her head.
At night, instead of going back to the Whitland Villa, Ashlyn went to the Bayview Villa straight away.
Just when she entered her house, Lucas called her.
“Why aren’t you back here?”
“I don’t want to interrupt your personal time with your sister.” Ashlyn’s lips twitched as she huddled sluggishly on a
couch.
“Honey...” Lucas squinted his cavernous eyes as he looked at the townhouses in the residential area.
Then he heard Spencer’s voice. “Mr. Nolan, we’re here.”
Instead of getting off the car, Lucas asked Ashlyn, “What would you like to eat tonight?”
“I don’t know, but my chef has prepared a meal for me. I’m hanging up now.” Ashlyn ended the call without
hesitation.
After that, Lucas stared at his phone with his brow raised.
“Head to Bayview Villa.”
After hanging up the phone, the chef served Ashlyn a steaming bow of egg noodles.
“Ms. Berry, is this bowl of noodle enough for you?”
“Yes.”
Ashlyn picked up the chopsticks and dug in. She was famished.
Suddenly, her phone rang before she finished eating.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was her colleague calling from the hospital.
“Dr. Berry, Mr. Chapman is awake.”
“Really? Please keep a close eye on him, and don’t allow any unauthorized person to get into his room,” Ashlyn
mumbled.
“Noted, Dr. Berry.”
Ever since then, Ashlyn had always felt suspicious about the accident.
Though the driver denied murder and insisted that he was drunk, she did not believe him.
Ashlyn quickly finished the noodles and left the villa.
The Land Rover whizzed along the road to the First Hospital.
When she passed by Lucas’ car, he furrowed his brows.
“Follow her.”
“Yes, Mr. Nolan.”
Spencer promptly turned the car around and trailed behind Ashlyn’s white Land Rover.
After parking the car in the basement carpark of the hospital, Ashlyn entered an elevator.
Just when the elevator door was about to close, a huge hand reached out suddenly, and the elevator door re-
opened automatically. Then a tall and manly figure came in.
Ashlyn lifted her eyes and gaped at Lucas. “What are you doing here?”
