Chapter 1039
Chapter 1039 Brianna Visited Nelson
Don't even mention this lifetime. Trevor wouldn't dare to command Ashlyn even in his next life! Ashlyn glanced at Trevor casually and said nonchalantly, “Let's go.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Did she just... agree to it? Trevor immediately felt relieved.
However, Ruben couldn't help but glance at the back seat through the lowered car window. In the back row sat a man and a woman; the man was handsome, and the woman was beautiful. The girl who had just started speaking had an extremely cold and clear voice, and she was strikingly beautiful. Her fair skin was eye-catching, with a slender neck and delicate features that were even more beautiful than the portraits of beauties in picture albums. Upon seeing her, Ruben couldn't help but froze, as such a beautiful and delicate girl was truly a rare sight.
She is young and good-looking. So... is she the doctor? Or is that man the doctor? Ruben's curiosity led him to look at Lucas once more. Lucas exuded an extraordinary aura, and his excessively handsome face seemed to sense Ruben's gaze. Lucas' narrow eyes lifted slightly, giving Ruben a brief, emotionless glance before lowering them again. It was merely one glance, yet it made Ruben feel like he had been pricked by a thorn!
Wow... Such a sharp gaze. Such a strong aura. Where did Mr. Trevor find such an outstanding pair of man and woman?
Ruben had seen his fair share of young socialites and scions from prestigious families and wealthy households in Jadeborough. However, there has never been a man and woman as magnificent and naturally regal as this pair. Before Ruben could react, Trevor's car had already started. Seeing the car start to move, he quickly got into his car and instructed the driver to follow.
For some unknown reason, Ruben had a faint, uneasy feeling deep in his heart. Seeing the appearance of this man and woman, it seemed the entire Oates family was about to explode. The car moved forward smoothly. Ashlyn nestled in Lucas' arms and let out a yawn; she was extremely tired.
“I'll take a short nap. Just wake me up when we arrive.” After she finished speaking, she stretched out both arms and wrapped them around Lucas' waist, rubbing her porcelain-white face against his chest. It was quite rare for Ashlyn to be like a little kitten that was attached to the embrace of its owner.
Lucas looked at Ashlyn with doting affection. His large palm gently stroked her back, just like how one would pat and soothe a baby. Ashlyn was quite tired and exhausted. The refreshingly masculine scent that filled her nose made her feel exceptionally at ease.
Before Ashlyn knew it, she had fallen asleep. At this moment in the hospital, the ward where Nelson was staying was extremely crowded. Many important figures, who could only be seen on television, were coming and going in this place. Finnick felt his face feeling almost stiff from greeting the guests. “Thank you so much. I appreciate you making the trip.”
“My dad's health is really not good anymore. Alas...”
“Thank you for your hard work...” Just then, a slender figure stepped out of the elevator, followed by a man. The man carried a fruit basket in his hand, keeping pace with her every step. Finnick was stunned and looked toward the woman. “Ms. Jackovich?”
How did the famous Secretary of State's youngest daughter, Brianna Jackovich, from the royal family of Maredania, end up here?
Brianna wore an elegant Audrey Hepburn-styled black dress, with a white cashmere coat on top. She had on a pair of matching boots that were spotlessly clean, drawing admiring glances. The striking contrast of black and white created a refreshing and powerful simplicity. She was exceptionally
beautiful, with a mysterious mixed-race look in her features, especially those captivating eyes, which were incredibly stunning and enchanting.
The square diamond earrings on her ears gleamed with a brilliant and noble radiance under the corridor lights. Finnick murmured to himself, “The daughter of Maredania's Secretary of State truly lives up to her reputation as a top socialite.” He then walked up to Brianna.
“Ms. Jackovich, it's been a while. I'm glad to see you're doing well.”
“Old Mr. Oates is one of the founding fathers of the H Nation. It's only right that we come to visit him when he's seriously ill.”
Brianna glanced at the driver behind her, who immediately presented the fruit basket in his hands to Finnick.
