Chapter 256
Lucas took a deep breath before letting Ashlyn go and touched his neck.
He turned to look at the rearview mirror and noticed a clear bite mark slightly above his left collarbone.
“Are you a dog?” Lucas yawned and frowned.
Even though he looked lazy, his piercing gaze was enough to make anyone beg for their lives.
Anyone except for the woman in front of him.
“I learned from the best,” Ashlyn scoffed and opened the door. “Goodbye, Mr. Nolan.”
Lucas wasn’t happy that his woman had just teased him.
“Sir, our men are watching Hera closely for the past few days,” Spencer reported, which diverted Lucas’ attention.
“Don’t lose her. Be ready to make the move,” Lucas ordered in an icy tone which made Spencer wonder if the ice
would build up inside the car.

She even looks so sexy from the back...
A new gossip spread throughout the Nolan Group that day once again.
“All hail Mrs. Nolan!”
“She bit his neck? For real?”
“Wow!”
“Looks like they really went at it yesterday. We might get ourselves a young Nolan soon!”
As the employees kept gossiping about the bite mark near Lucas’ neck, the man himself didn’t even try to hide it.
Instead, he was happy about it.
Don’t you have any pride? Spencer thought.

Hera and Jenny met up in a café.
“Jenny! Didn’t I tell you that you don’t have to bring me gifts?” Hera complained as her eyes shone when she saw
the two new bags.
It had been quite a long time since Hera had bought any new bags for herself. She did not expect her high school
classmate would buy her bags instead.
“Why not? We’re friends, aren’t we?” Jenny smiled. “But, you shouldn’t have offended Ashlyn, you know? She has
Jared, the president of Centennial Healthcare, backing her. You better be careful.”
“That Ashlyn is a total bitch!” Hera cursed. “Wait, do you know her?”
“W-who doesn’t? She’s always on top of the online search ranking now. I can really sympathize with you, you know.
I don’t even know what happened to our captain either. How can he not help you when Ashlyn was literally bullying
you?”
“Lucas is being tricked by that whore! You have no idea how good she is at acting!”
Jenny froze when she heard Hera address Lucas by his first name.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYou b*tch! Do you think you have the rights to address him so casually?
Jenny forcibly suppressed her disgust and put up a smile.
“I have no idea you’re so close with Captain Nolan. Too bad that it’s all ruined by Ashlyn.”
“Lucas and I have been friends since we were kids,” Hera explained.
“Ashlyn flew on Captain Nolan’s flight once. It seems like they are pretty close...” Jenny did not expose that Ashlyn
was actually Lucas’ wife.
If Lucas were to learn that she had exposed Ashlyn’s identity, he would never forgive her.
That was why Jenny could only do things in secret.
Jenny’s family, the Holts, wielded much more power than Hera’s.
Since the Holts had businesses in other countries as well, Jenny caught wind of Lucas’ mother’s plan to return soon.
Her lips arched up as she stared at Hera. “I’ve heard that Captain Nolan’s mother is returning home soon. Hera, if
you’re as close to him as you said, you must’ve met his mother before, right? Why don’t you go and meet her?
Maybe, just maybe, she might like you?”
