My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140

A man was sitting in Dr. Shakes’ seat, and he was flipping through some medical records with his bony fingers.

The tuxedo he wore was darker than the night sky, yet the diamonds adorned on his sleeve cuffs glistened in a luxurious shimmer.

When Lucas heard the footsteps, he cast a brooding and icy gaze at Ashlyn.

The aura he exuded formed a stark contrast with the modest office, and Ashlyn thought Lucas’ presence made the cramped office seem more luxurious than it actually was.

She regained her senses after a long while. “Why are you here?”

Her beautiful eyes scanned across the doctors and nurses who seem absolutely terrified, and she finally understood what was going on.

“Are you the patient that they’re talking about?”

The patient’s condition really is difficult and irksome.

No wonder the nurse seemed so conflicted just now.

Probably everyone will have a headache when they’re facing Lucas, right?

Meanwhile, Dr. Shakes seemed grateful that he survived a disaster. “Dr. Berry, I’ll leave Mr. Nolan to you. I believe in your abilities!”

In the ward, everyone, including Spencer, had already left.

Ashlyn stared at Lucas with a frustrated look and asked, “What do you want?”

How can a grown man like him be so childish!

“You asked me to call for an ambulance,” Lucas responded with an emotionless gaze that was unwittingly filled with greed.

On the other hand, Ashlyn was utterly vexed.

“What I meant was...”

Screw it. There’s no use trying to reason with a psychopath like him.

“You seem fine. I’ll get going.”

She turned around and prepared to leave, but the man suddenly clasped her wrists.

He said in a pitiful tone, “Ever since you left, I haven’t been sleeping or eating.”

Ashlyn was at a loss for words.
