Chapter 564


    Anger was written all over Ashlyn’s face; she was upset and furious.


    Her temper red after she saw that beautiful woman in the house.


    It felt as if she had caught a mistress in bed.


    She was humiliated, as if stripped naked in front of the public.


    She had just started feeling things for Lucas a while ago and considered having a romantic rtionship


    with him.


    What is wrong with me? I must have a screw loose in my head.


    How can I have feelings for a douchebag like him?


    It must be because of the Spirogyra. That’s why I’m interested in him.


    How can I be so blind?


    Staring at Lucas’ smile, she felt the urge to connect her fist with his handsome face, repeatedly and


    forcefully.


    Lucas sighed, “Honey, you’re so smart and strong. I didn’t know you can be so cute too. What a


    pleasant surprise.”


    “Shut up, Lucas. If youugh at me again, I’ll make sure you won’t know who’s looking back at you in


    the mirror,” Ashlyn fumed.


    “Honey, that’s my sister. What are you thinking about?” Lucas’ smile softened. “I’ve been at my


    parent’s. Some unhappy things happened, but I’ll tell you about thatter. I’m back with my sister this


    time.”


    “Your sister?” Ashlyn widened her eyes. “Isn’t your sister…”


    She recalled Lucas mentioning a sister living with his parents overseas.


    “ire and Grace are twins. Grace passed away.” Lucas reached out to pull her closer.


    “I never thought that I’d see the day you’d be as jealous as this. I’m joyous. Honey, you’re really


    concerned about me. I’m thrilled about it. I’m d that you’re here.”


    He embraced her tightly, rubbing his chin on her shoulders as a tender look took over his face.


    He appreciated the fact that he could hug her again after what happened in Paris.


    He cherished it.


    Ashlyn was beyond baffled.

    She put her hands on the man’s chest but ended up touching his muscr abs instead.


    She could feel the heat emanating from him, seeping into her palms.


    Ashlyn’s face flushed. “Let go of me. I want to apologize to your sister.”


    “There’s no need to.” Lucas raised her chin. “We have something more important to attend to.”


    With that said, his thin lips sealed her soft ones.


    In the moonlight, Ashlyn’s white clothes seemed to shine. Her blush darkened.


    It made her face even prettier than before.


    When Lucas looked at her face, his heart skipped a beat.


    He wanted to possess her—to have her beauty all to himself.


    At a nearby spot, ire saw them kissing when she ran out after them.


    Her eyes widened in surprise.


    What are they doing?


    How can they be so intimate with each other?


    ire’s face drained of its colors as her breathing quickened.


    Finally, just as Ashlyn was about to pass out from theck of air, Lucas let go of her.


    Right then, a loud thump sounded out.


    It frightened the couple.


    Ashlyn turned in the direction of the noise to see a thin figure copsed on the ground.


    “ire?” Lucas let go of Ashlyn and ran toward ire.


    After a second of freezing, Ashlyn followed him.


    When they reached her, they saw ire lying on the ground with an ashen face and closed eyes. She


    had lost consciousness.


    “Let me take a look.” Ashlyn reached out to press down hard on ire’s philtrum before she took her


    pulse.


    When she noticed her weak pulse, she frowned. “Does she have any illnesses or disorders?”


    “She has congenital heart disease. She’s not one of the healthiest people.” Lucas carried ire up into


    his arms. “I think she’s having an attack.”
