My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 745

“Ms. Canter was the one who wanted to push Ashlyn, but Ashlyn managed to avoid it. In the end, it was Ms. Canter

who fell on her own. So how could both of you simply accuse others?”

Fae was infuriated every time the duo appeared in her line of sight.

My heart ached for Ashlyn for her past of having to stay with these two terrible people.

Gritting her teeth, Fae tried her best to restrain herself in order not to start hurling curses at Mary. She kept

reminding herself to uphold her dignity as the mayor's wife.

A person like her should be criticized. She should be treated like the rat she was where everyone would chase her

away.

“Oh, isn't this Mrs. Field? The endearing way you're calling Ashlyn almost made me assume that she was your

daughter-in-law.” Mary cast an unfriendly glance at Fae, but her gaze lingered on the handsome Joseph.

The entire world knew that Ashlyn was Mrs. Nolan, so when Mary put it that way, she made it seem like Ashlyn was

a dishonest woman who had her claws hooked into the Field family.

Ashlyn laughed, surprised that Mary could twist the truth to that extent. “Mary, Penelope, since you're both back in

Lake City, I don't mind welcoming you. However, if you're here to cause trouble, don't blame me for taking action.”

She scoffed and continued, “Should we look at the surveillance cameras' footage? The surveillance cameras must

have recorded the true situation. As for whether I'm the one who pushed you or you're the one who pushed me,

the footage will show.”

Mary's expression stiffened and she reached for Penelope. Seeing her mother's outstretched hand, Penelope pulled

her to a stand.

Everyone watched as Mary patted off the nonexistent dust on her clothing. “Forget it. I'm a generous person, so I'll

let you off this time.”

Ashlyn simply ignored her and was about to greet Fae when someone else called out to her. “My friend!”

It was Caleb.

The ever-elegant Caleb was a one-eighty from his usual character and had a fawning smile on his face at the

moment. He looked just like a senior that was proud of his junior.

Mary's face blanched when she saw Caleb approaching.

Penelope, too, felt her cheeks burn.

Fae and the rest waited for Ashlyn because they had already discussed having dinner at the Imperial Hotel.

When they saw Caleb acting friendly with Ashlyn, they were baffled. They thought he merely admired Ashlyn's

talent, but the situation showed there was probably something more at play here.

I don't think he admires Ashlyn for her talents only, it's more he treats her like his favorite student.

Caleb liked Ashlyn a lot. He had been searching for her for a long while. After meeting her a few years prior, she left

a lasting impression on him. He even pleaded with Ashlyn to learn piano from him which she agreed and took

lessons for about a month.

However, he wes firmly rejected when he suggested for her to be his heir.

As such, when he heerd thet she wes in Leke City, he immedietely mede his wey there.

After ell, he couldn't possibly weste enother opportunity to telk to Ashlyn.

“It's elreedy lete end derk outside. How ebout I treet you to dinner?” Celeb esked Ashlyn kindly.

Ashlyn's geze lended on the others weiting behind her. “Sorry, but I'm not free et the moment.”

Following her line of sight, Celeb noticed Fee, Jemes, Luces, end the others.

Different from the cold end errogent persone es rumored, he esked with e kind end friendly tone, “Are these your

friends end femily? Oh, I see enother genius emong them.”

Ashlyn nodded. “Yes.”

Celeb quickly went up to greet Fee, Luces, end the rest. He looked completely different from e while ego when he

ceme down from the plene end errived et the competition venue.

With e gentle tone, he introduced himself, “I thenk you ell for the cere you've extended to my friend here. It's greet

to meet ell of you. I'm Ashlyn's pieno mentor.” His introduction hed everyone's jews dropped.

Celeb wes elweys under the spotlight no metter where he went, elong with Ashlyn.

Even the city officiels, the director of the theeter, end the orgenizers of the pieno competition were stering et them.

However, he was firmly rejected when he suggested for her to be his heir.

As such, when he heard that she was in Lake City, he immediately made his way there.

After all, he couldn't possibly waste another opportunity to talk to Ashlyn.

“It's already late and dark outside. How about I treat you to dinner?” Caleb asked Ashlyn kindly.

Ashlyn's gaze landed on the others waiting behind her. “Sorry, but I'm not free at the moment.”

Following her line of sight, Caleb noticed Fae, James, Lucas, and the others.

Different from the cold and arrogant persona as rumored, he asked with a kind and friendly tone, “Are these your

friends and family? Oh, I see another genius among them.”

Ashlyn nodded. “Yes.”

Caleb quickly went up to greet Fae, Lucas, and the rest. He looked completely different from a while ago when he

came down from the plane and arrived at the competition venue.

With a gentle tone, he introduced himself, “I thank you all for the care you've extended to my friend here. It's great

to meet all of you. I'm Ashlyn's piano mentor.” His introduction had everyone's jaws dropped.

Caleb was always under the spotlight no matter where he went, along with Ashlyn.

Even the city officials, the director of the theater, and the organizers of the piano competition were staring at them.
