My One In A Million Wife [Ashlyn And Lucas] Chapter 26

My one in a million wife [Ashlyn and Lucas] chapter 26

Wait, I didn’t know Centennial Healthcare and Nolan Group do business together. Why is the boss inviting Jared for lunch? Is this in preparation for some future collaboration? But the boss doesn’t look happy to see Jared at all!

Only one man understood the situation- Spencer.

Mr. Nolan is too awkward when it comes to these matters. What’s the point of doing it in such a roundabout manner? Just invite Ashlyn over directly!

As Lucas’ official interpreter and S-tier support unit, Spencer got up and intended to invite Ashlyn over himself.

Lucas’ cold gaze swept over him and queried, “Where do you think you’re going?”

Spencer’s face flushed red and glanced at Lucas. I’m going to get Ashlyn over, that’s what! However, what came out was, “I’d like to use the washroom.”

And thus, the support unit left the room.

Jared then asked for Ashlyn’s opinion before bringing her to Lucas’ table. He replied, “Thanks for the invitation, Mr. Nolan. We’ll join you for lunch, then.”

Jared was sharp and knew that he could not afford to refuse the invitation in front of so many executives.

Ashlyn headed to a seat at the opposite end of the table, far away from Lucas.

However, a certain stone-faced individual spoke, “It’s too cold there. Take a seat beside me.”

Oh my gosh, what did I just hear? The boss invited Jared’s partner to sit with him? What on earth is going on? Isn’t the boss married?

Wilson and the other executives turned their eyes to Ashlyn.

She’s a top-class beauty! None of the people I’ve seen before are as pretty as she is, and I’m working in an entertainment company! None of the girls in Nolan Entertainment can match up to her! Especially that aloof look in her eyes. Where have I seen that look before? That’s right, it’s the same cold glare as the boss’! ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“I appreciate the sentiment, Mr. Nolan.” Ashlyn turned around to look at Lucas.

As she turned around, her hair brushed past her face, accentuating her defined features.

The tassels on her earrings danced in the wind.

There was a lively expression in her eyes, as though she was a fairy living in the forest.

Lucas demanded, “Aren’t you going to come over?”

He could not disguise the impatience and helplessness in his tone. Sure, we’re divorced, but we don’t have to be married to sit next to each other, right? Must you really coddle up to Jared the moment we get divorced?

Earlier, when Lucas mentioned that she was Jared’s girlfriend, Jared had not denied it.

Lucas held a grudge and was frustrated when she took a seat with Jared.

Even if they were divorced, he would not allow any other men to set their sights on Ashlyn, at least not for now.

The crowd got excited, as though something big was going to happen.

They were all screaming internally. Oh my goodness! I can’t believe that there’s a woman in this world who can resist the boss’ charm! The boss had to ask twice!

Ashlyn responded, “This seat is fine.”

“The honey chicken drumlets are over here.” Lucas casually gestured at the tempting plate of chicken drumlets right in front of him.

Ashlyn was a good cook and a gourmet.

Hence, she would not be able to resist good food.

After four years of marriage, Lucas naturally knew what her favorite food was.

Everyone was speechless.

The boss even knows what this lady’s favorite food is! What on earth is their relationship? Didn’t the boss just say she is Jared’s girlfriend?

Some of them had already started imagining a love triangle plot on par with some third-rated romance novels.

Spencer, who had returned from his forced pilgrimage to the restroom, came back in time to hear Lucas say that.

Tsk, tsk. Mr. Nolan, why haven’t you invited her back to your side yet? You’re not getting anywhere at this rate!

Just as Spencer was grumbling about Lucas’ inefficiency, Ashlyn got up and took a seat beside Lucas.

That seat was supposed to be Spencer’s. Spencer continued walking to Ashlyn’s original seat as though he had sat there since the very beginning.

The executives’ thoughts started to wander. Is Jared really ok about this? His girlfriend just took a seat beside the boss! Doesn’t he feel his pride being hurt at all?

Jared simply smirked. I’m not important enough to influence my boss’ decisions!

However, he felt uncomfortable watching Ashlyn leave all the same. Why am I feeling this way? In the past, they were legally wedded, so there’s nothing I can say about that. Now that they’re divorced, why is Lucas clinging to my boss like this? When will it be my turn to get some attention? Argh!

Lucas then shot a taunting look toward Jared.
