My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 68

Chapter 67

After hearing Ashlyn’s explanation, Lucas, who had just resumed his calm composure, felt slightly annoyed again.

At least I’m a tool, not just a useless man.

He was actually glad that she did not use another man as a tool.

“I’m sorry,” apologized Ashlyn sincerely. She suddenly felt that it was a bit despicable to exploit him just like that.

Jackson was part of the police, while she was a criminal.

How could she let Jackson see her?

She spread her arms out. “I don’t like to owe others favors, so I’ll agree to take your flight home tomorrow. How about that?”

This was to return Lucas’ favor to her.

Although Ashlyn said it in a very cold and straightforward manner, Lucas felt an inexplicable sense of emotions.

Lifting his lips up into a smile, his eyes could not help but light up at the thought of it. “Stay at my hotel tonight.”

“I already have a place.” Ashlyn frowned, thinking that he was pushing his luck.

“Then, I’ll treat your kiss earlier as your lingering love for me. You took the initiative to kiss me because you want to remarry,” whispered Lucas in a seductive voice as he raised his eyebrows and bent down closer to Ashlyn.

Ashlyn was speechless.

She had shot herself in the foot.

It was quite inappropriate to return to Luigi’s place as she had already bid them farewell.

Forget it, I’ll just stay at his hotel.

Lucas and the flight crew were staying at a five-star hotel near the airport.

South Star Airlines was famous for having good employee benefits. As Lucas did not want to downgrade himself, all crew members, regardless of which flight they were responsible for, stayed in five-star hotels.

Coincidentally, when Ashlyn wanted to book another room, the woman at the concierge told her with a sweet smile that there were no available rooms left.

But there are no events in Italy now. How can the hotel be fully booked?

Ashlyn felt slightly suspicious.

Lucas was helping Ashlyn pull her luggage. He pressed the lift button and chirped, “The service at this hotel is quite good. Hence, the rooms normally need to be reserved beforehand. If you’d tried to book a room on the spot, it would’ve been difficult to do so.”
