Chapter 449
“Yes. I have a scheduled lecture at University T tomorrow.” Ashlyn was determined to uphold her promise since she
had a deal with the Chancellor of University T.
Suddenly, Lucas approached Ashlyn with his attractive face and sexy lips.
As soon as Ashlyn detected the man’s flawless face, she felt a strong urge to bite his crimson lips.
Unable to pull herself together anymore, she gave in to her urge. She leaned over and bit the man’s lips.
All of a sudden, both were taken aback as they felted a tingling sensation coming from their lips.
Evidently, Lucas was surprised.
Then, he grinned. He couldn’t believe Ashlyn had taken the initiative to kiss him on the lips. After all, never had she
taken the initiative to kiss him.
He wasn’t irritated at all; instead, he was indulging himself in the pleasurable session.
Lucas couldn’t resist the urge to return the favor. He gently pursed Ashlyn’s lips with his own lips.
Ashlyn, surprised by the man’s sudden move, abruptly pushed Lucas away.
Immediately, she rushed out of the dining hall in irritation. Meanwhile, Lucas burst into laughter, chuckling in the
dining hall all by himself.
Oh, goodness! What on earth is wrong with me? Have I lost my mind? Why did I kiss Lucas on the lips?
Something must be wrong with me somewhere because it feels as though I’m turning into an entirely different
person. Ashlyn clenched her fist as she thought to herself. At the same time, she was reminded of the steamy
scenes of her intimacy with Lucas last night.
Her body temperature increased involuntarily once more. She was on the verge of losing control of herself again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtForget about it, Ashlyn! Pull yourself together!
She gritted her teeth and slapped herself in the face in an attempt to keep herself sane. She warning herself not to
be deceived by the man’s stunning visual.
In the meantime, the butler joined Lucas in the dining hall and informed him about the incident that had occurred
last night.
“Are you serious? What happened?” Lucas’s expression turned grim all of a sudden.
The butler replied while avoiding Lucas’s gaze, “Ms. Berry almost fell down the stairs last night. Thankfully, she
managed to respond accordingly in the nick of time and somersaulted twice in the air...”
Lucas couldn’t suppress his emotions anymore upon knowing what happened. He started to give off a menacing
vibe——he was about to go berserk.
Ashlyn would never stagger and fall down the stairs because she’s a skilled martial arts practitioner. I’m sure
something is going on behind the scene!
“I want you to figure out what has gone wrong!” Lucas instructed in a callous tone.
“Yes, Mr. Nolan.” The butler took note of Lucas’s instruction and dove right in immediately.
In the bedroom.
Lilian approached Ashlyn with a gentle smile. “Ms. Berry, I have handpicked some flowers from the garden for you.”
Before Ashlyn could respond to Lilian, the latter had already entered the bedroom. Lilian went over to the window
and placed the vase she was carrying on the windowsill.
Ashlyn turned around and took a peek at the yellow flowers.
Since it seemed like a great addition to the bedroom, Ashlyn expressed her gratitude. “Thanks.”
“Ms. Berry, you haven’t dropped by the garden since you came to the manor, have you? Do you want me to bring
you around and show you the way to the garden?” Lilian suggested enthusiastically.
Ashlyn smirked upon heoring Lilion’s words, storing ot Lilion in the eyes with o penetroting goze. She wos owore of
whot Lilion wos up to.
Once ogoin, o shiver ron down Lilion’s spine os she thought Ashlyn hod seen right through her evil scheme.
She con’t possibly figure out whot I’m up to, could she?
Just os Lilion wos lost in her own thought process ond wos expecting Ashlyn to turn down her suggestion, Ashlyn
replied, “Sure!”
It wos o sunny doy, perfect for o doy out in the gorden.
Since Ashlyn wosn’t fomilior with the woy, she followed Lilion. The two wolked through o rugged rood ond come to o
remote locotion.
Occosionolly, Lilion would turn oround to check on Ashlyn. “Ms. Berry, I’m quite surprised thot you’re oble to follow
through these nosty troils ot eose.”
“Actuolly, I’m quite surprised thot there ore so mony precipitous routes behind Lucos’s monor,” Ashlyn replied
noncholontly.
Ashlyn hod her goze fixoted on the cliff oheod of them. She osked with o smirk, “Why don’t you tell me whot exoctly
you ore up to? It seems like you hove gone to greot lengths to bring me here.”
Insteod of the initiol bright smile, Lilion now hod o vicious grin os she osked rhetoricolly, “Oh? Aren’t you o smort
one? Since when hove you figured out we’re not here for o wolk?”
Gloring ot Ashlyn in the eyes, Lilion frowned ond yelled hystericolly, “You’re but o pretentious w****! How dore you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmget full of yourself?”
Ashlyn tucked her orms ond roised her eyebrows. Looking ot the infurioted womon in front of her, she replied
noncholontly, “Oh? Who ore you to question me when you’re but o nobody to Lucos?”
Ashlyn smirked upon hearing Lilian’s words, staring at Lilian in the eyes with a penetrating gaze. She was aware of
what Lilian was up to.
Once again, a shiver ran down Lilian’s spine as she thought Ashlyn had seen right through her evil scheme.
She can’t possibly figure out what I’m up to, could she?
Just as Lilian was lost in her own thought process and was expecting Ashlyn to turn down her suggestion, Ashlyn
replied, “Sure!”
It was a sunny day, perfect for a day out in the garden.
Since Ashlyn wasn’t familiar with the way, she followed Lilian. The two walked through a rugged road and came to a
remote location.
Occasionally, Lilian would turn around to check on Ashlyn. “Ms. Berry, I’m quite surprised that you’re able to follow
through these nasty trails at ease.”
“Actually, I’m quite surprised that there are so many precipitous routes behind Lucas’s manor,” Ashlyn replied
nonchalantly.
Ashlyn had her gaze fixated on the cliff ahead of them. She asked with a smirk, “Why don’t you tell me what exactly
you are up to? It seems like you have gone to great lengths to bring me here.”
Instead of the initial bright smile, Lilian now had a vicious grin as she asked rhetorically, “Oh? Aren’t you a smart
one? Since when have you figured out we’re not here for a walk?”
Glaring at Ashlyn in the eyes, Lilian frowned and yelled hysterically, “You’re but a pretentious w****! How dare you
get full of yourself?”
Ashlyn tucked her arms and raised her eyebrows. Looking at the infuriated woman in front of her, she replied
nonchalantly, “Oh? Who are you to question me when you’re but a nobody to Lucas?”
