Ashlyn, who was about to get him to join her for a late supper, exchanged glances with him.
The handsome man’s glistering pair of eyes flickered. He was enshrouded by the gentle shimmer as he
sat in the well-illuminated space.
Consequently, the outstanding features on Lucas’ face were highlighted, distinguishing the man’s
stunning visual.
Ashlyn’s heart skipped a beat upon detecting the man’s gentle gaze because she was on the verge of
falling for him all over again.
Lucas stared at the woman in the eyes for a few seconds before turning around, putting the laptop he
had with him aside, asking, “Honey, is it time to eat?”
“Mm…”
Ashlyn took a deep breath and calmed herself down with all her might. She placed her hands on her
burning cheeks before returning to the kitchen to get the cutlery.
Finally, they took their seats in the dining hall.
All of a sudden, Ashlyn’s heart pounded furiously because things had gotten odd between them.
Obviously, Ashlyn felt uncomfortable due to the man’s behavior.
The scent of the delicacies prepared permeated throughout the dining hall, inducing the lovely pairs to
dig in.
Ever since Lucas took his seat, he had his eyes glued to Ashlyn. He went all out and showed her the
affection he had for her through physical manifestation.
“Honey, thank you for preparing such a scrumptious meal.” Once again, the man broke the silence,
asking with a husky voice before Ashlyn could express her feeling.
She took a peek, whining, “Let’s cut the crap and dig in, shall we?”
Lucas smirked, digging in as instructed, occasionally glancing at Ashlyn who was opposite him in an
intimate manner.
The usually penetrating gaze of Lucas was nowhere to be found because he had always been a loving
man whenever Ashlyn was around him. “Honey, do you like to get involved in charitable events?”
Although they were divorced a long time ago, Ashlyn had gotten used to him addressing her in such an
intimate manner.
Previously, she would correct him and instruct him to address her in a different manner, but she
couldn’t be bothered by it anymore as she had gotten used to it.
“Not really, but I don’t mind involving myself in one either,” Ashlyn replied nonchalantly.
Lucas lowered his gaze, thinking about the time Ashlyn donated the fortune he had bestowed upon to
build a school in his name.
He was shocked and surprised because never would he have thought Ashlyn would forsake such a
huge fortune.
After all, there weren’t many people in the world who would be able to remain sane, especially when a
fortune worthy of a few hundred million showed up from nowhere.
Lucas was impressed by the woman’s willpower. because Ashlyn was one of the rare few who wouldn’t
be blinded by greed. In fact, she didn’t hesitate to donate it all for a greater cause.
Once they finished their meal, Lucas felt great since he had his tummy filled.
On the other hand, Ashlyn insisted on spending the night in the guest room.
Lucas was reluctant but gave in to Ashlyn’s request because he was aware that she had a long day.
He stopped insisting and returned to his room, but he couldn’t bring himself to fall asleep the moment
he recalled the existence of the woman next door.
On the next day morning, Ashlyn saw him reading the newspaper in the living room once she walked
down the stairs.
He raised his head and looked in her direction the moment he heard footsteps from the stairs.
“Good morning,” Lucas greeted with a husky voice.
He had a set of casual lounge wear on, sitting idly on the couch, exuding a noble presence early in the
morning.
No matter how attractive Lucas was, Ashlyn paid no heed to him and made her way into the kitchen
right away.
She started cooking in the kitchen because she had to prepare breakfast for her grandmother who had
been hospitalized.
Ashlyn didn’t want her grandmother to eat the meals prepared by the hospital because they won’t be as
nutritious and delicious as the ones she cooked for her.
The golden rays of the sun illuminated the confined space, whereas the greasy sense of smoke could
be detected coming from the kitchen.
Lucas heard the sound of the kitchen chimney being put into work early in the morning. Apart from that,
the crackling sound of the spatula crashing against the saucepan could be heard.
Eventually, he strode over to the kitchen, leaning against the wall, staring at Ashlyn’s busy figure.
She turned around, instructing because she detected the man staring at her, “Come help me do the
dishes.”
Since the man decided to poke his nose into her business, she decided to put him to work and asked
him to wash the dishes.
Without further ado, Lucas rolled up his sleeves and joined her in the kitchen, washing the used plates
and utensils.
He was in close proximity to the woman. Hence, she could detect the arousing scent coming from the
man.
In the end, her heart skipped a beat because she was afraid she would lose control of herself once
more.
Due to the man’s overwhelming presence, she scrunched her nose up in irritation because she couldn’t
ignore his presence.
Before long, Lucas passed the ingredients he had prepared over to Ashlyn.
