Chapter 918
Ashlyn could sense a hint of anger in Lucas’ tone.
Lucas was always cold, but his emotions would change drastically if the matters concerned her.
Ashlyn hesitated for a moment before replying, “It’s fine. Shooting this cover was actually a task
arranged by the higher-ups. It’s an opportunity and a coincidence. I’m fine with the public opinion being
against me if I don’t do it. But at the end of the day, I genuinely want to spread that kindness.”
After hanging up the phone, Cassandra asked, “Boss, what should we do now?”
A gust of icy wind blew past, chilling Ashlyn to the bone.
Ashlyn shivered, her face stiff from the cold.
But still she walked toward the nearbyke.
She walked naturally and casually as if she was strolling in her backyard.

Even as the freezing wind whipped around her, she seemed unaffected.
She reached the edge of theke and stepped in, instantly causing ripples to form in the water.
The north wind howled, blowing fallen leaves around her. She was like a fairy in the woods, leisurely
walking despite the bone-chilling cold.
Sharon stood not far away, holding a thermos cup with a mocking expression on her face.
In the end, aren’t you still continuing the shoot obediently? You can only learn the hard way.
Standing in the icy water, Ashlyn alternated between dipping her feet in the water, walking, and lifting
her skirt to jump around.
A hint of determination shed in her bright eyes.
Meanwhile, the photographer continuously clicked the shutter.
Lucas stood on the opposite side of theke, watching the woman who insisted on entering the water in
such cold weather.
Which magazine requires such a shoot? Is it because my beloved isn’t part of the entertainment
industry, yet she managed to snatch such a great opportunity that they are deliberately bullying her?
He strode quickly toward Ashlyn.
Within minutes, he reached her, scooping up the shivering, purple-faced woman in his arms. “The
shoot ends here!”
“Even if you’re Mr. Nn, you can’t do whatever you want here.” Sharon rushed over and saw Lucas
holding Ashlyn tightly in his arms. She was furious when she saw that scene.
Why do all the good men in the world belong to other women?
“We signed a contract. If you don’t do the shoot, it’s a breach of contract. What gives you the right not
to shoot? You’re just an inte celebrity who’s done a few good deeds, and it’s all because Mr. Nn
is protecting you…”
p! Before Sharon could finish speaking, a pnded harshly on her face.
Ashlyn broke free from Lucas’ embrace and walked up to Sharon with her chin slightly raised. She still
looked like a haughty queen.
“Who’s protecting me is none of your business. Take a good look. This is your ugly face.” Ashlyn took
the phone from Cassandra and held up all the footage that Cassandra had recorded earlier in front of
Sharon.
“If you can’t survive in LX Corporation, do you think you can continue to stand in the fashion industry?
You will definitely leave Lille Magazine the way you left LX Corporation back then.”
“You! Ashlyn! You’re going too far! Do you think you can bully a small editor like me just because the
Nn Group is wealthy?” Sharon yelled furiously, not expecting Ashlyn to be so tough.
“Me? Bullying you? Let’s post this on Twitter and let everyone decide who’s the real bully here. What
do you say?”
“Ashlyn, are you out of your mind? Do you want me to post your ugly photos? I don’t believe you look
good in every single one! We’ll see what you can do then!” Sharon covered her burning cheek, furious
like a mad stray dog.
She was infuriated to the point of insanity, almost losing her rationality.
She snatched the camera from the photographer’s hands, her fingers frantically pressing buttons.
She was stunned when she saw the photos.
Every photo captured was incredibly ethereal and beautiful. Ashlyn, who was already stunning, had an
impable face that shone brightly in the cold winter wind, exuding a mesmerizing charm like a winter
elf.
