Chapter 90
The man’s familiar scent surrounded her completely.
Ashlyn’s eyes were cold and she didn’t have any reaction.
Lucas was acting just like a kid whose toy was taken from him at that moment. That toy was dispensable to him previously. But now that it was taken by someone else, he wanted it back.
How childish and ridiculous.
Does he not know what he’s doing?
We’re divorced. There’s no love between us.
What is he doing here, reprimanding me and looking like he’s here to catch me having an affair?
Ashlyn found it ridiculous. Her eyes were cold when she snapped back to her senses. She was about to push the childish, crazy Lucas away.
But she then realized a tingle of warmth around her sensitive neck.
Ashlyn pushed the man away, but he didn’t budge.
Spencer whispered, “Mr. Nolan is asleep.”
Ashlyn was rendered speechless.
She tilted her head to take a look and realized that Lucas was bear-hugging her. He’s already fast asleep when I was still silently ranting about him earlier.
Lucas’ breathing was slow and steady.
Two men were out like a light in the villa. One was lying unconscious on the floor, while the other was sound asleep with his face buried in Ashlyn’s neck.
“Lucas?”
Ashlyn sounded helpless as she shouted, “Wake up!”
But there wasn’t any reaction from the man.
She glanced at the clock on the wall. It’s already almost midnight.
“Get your boss out of here!” Ashlyn said as she looked at Spencer.
Spencer went to do as she said when he saw Ashlyn’s intimidating eyes. He tried to pull Lucas away from the woman, but no matter what he did, Lucas remained in a deep sleep.
His arms seemed to be made of steel as they were wrapped around Ashlyn’s waist tightly and couldn’t be budged.
How is he still so strong when he’s asleep?
Ashlyn sighed.
Not only did Lucas wrap his arms around her tightly, but her own arms were also locked between their bodies. Ashlyn was like a stick at the moment, trapped in the man’s bear hug.
She tried to break free but to no avail.
I can’t possibly stand here like this the whole night. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“Ever since Mr. Nolan got off from his flight, he hasn’t got any sleep for the next two days. That’s why he’s in such a deep sleep,” Spencer explained softly.
“Two days?” Ashlyn gave him a skeptical look. Didn’t Lucas use to have a great work-life tempo? His insomnia can’t be that bad, right?
“Ms. Berry, how about I help the both of you to your bedroom?”
“Just help us to the guestroom.” Ashlyn felt her head aching. Besides the living room, there was a kitchen and two guestrooms on the first floor.
Jared wasn’t the only one living in the villa. Maids and workers were living on the third and fourth floor.
Ashlyn felt extremely uncomfortable with Lucas slumped on her.
Spencer had it hard too. After he helped Lucas and Ashlyn onto the bed, he had to drag Jared to the other guest room all by himself.
Spencer was tired and sleepy by the time he was done. He was out cold the moment he lay on the sofa.
Fortunately, Ms. Berry’s villa is well-furnished. There’s even a blanket on the sofa.
Most of them slept soundly, but one of them was so uncomfortable as she couldn’t even move.
On the bed in the guestroom, Ashlyn was trapped in Lucas’ arms.
Her body was stiff and she couldn’t sleep well. When she woke up in the morning, she felt as if her body was run over by a truck.
What was even more agonizing was that the Spirogyra in her body would lose control and become restless whenever Ashlyn smelled the scent of Lucas.
Especially with Lucas so close to her, an electric current ran down her body whenever the man’s breath blew on her ears.
The Spirogyra was getting more and more restless and Ashlyn’s mouth went dry.
Her body was on fire and it was tormenting her, but she couldn’t break free from Lucas’ arms. So she started to twist her body unwittingly.
“I can’t promise that I won’t do something to you if you don’t stop moving.”
A low, attractive voice suddenly sounded.
