My one in a million wife [Ashlyn and Lucas] chapter 305
She had her gaze on the shuddering nurse, asking, “Tell me what’s going on.”
“I…” The nurse was about to summarize the incident, but Mary got ahead of her and broke the silence,
yelling, “Ashlyn, do you have any idea what she has done behind our back? She’s gossiping with the
other nurses behind us! Are you sure this kind of nurse is allowed to work at the hospital? We asked
her Grandma’s whereabouts, and yet she paid no heed to our query! I want to lodge a complaint
against her with your supervisor! I want her to get fired immediately!”
Mary knew she wouldn’t be able to take things out on Ashlyn, but she could at least vent her anger on
the nurse.
Ashlyn frowned, staring at Mary, and replied callously, “I’m sorry, but you have no authority over the
employees of the hospital! Guards, stop standing around idly! Chase them out of the hospital at once!”
“What did you say?” Mary’s eyes widened in disbelief, asking because she couldn’t believe her ears.
“Huh? I’m your stepmother. I was the one who had brought you up over the years. Is this how you’re
repaying me? How dare you side with an outsider against me? Ashlyn, I want to lodge a complaint
against you as well! You don’t deserve to be a doctor either!”

over and over again the only thing you’re capable of? Can you please entertain me with something
new?”
Finally, Horace got in Ashlyn’s way because the guards were about to chase Mary out of the hospital
as instructed, “Ashlyn, can you take the fact that we’re a family into consideration and show some
respect to your stepmother?”
Ashlyn scoffed, sneering, “Have you taken the fact that Grandma is also part of the family into
consideration? Have you taken the fact that I’m part of the family into consideration? Have you no
shame at all? How could you leverage on our relationship only when you need it?”
After she finished her sarcastic remarks, she repeated herself and instructed the guards, “Chase every
one of them out of the hospital at once! Get them out of my sight immediately!”
“I’m a nurse affiliated with the hospital! You’re not allowed to chase me out of the hospital!” The fact her
sister wielded influence over the guards of the hospital took Penelope by surprise. In fact, the one who
had shown up was none other than the captain of the security guards.
He took note of Ashlyn’s instructions obediently and proceeded to chase the trio from the Berry family
out of the hospital.
Penelope got worked up against the captain of the guards. Then, she yelled pointing at him, “Are you
having an affair with Ashlyn? Why are you taking instructions from her?”
Thump!
Ashlyn slapped Penelope in the face. Consequently, a loud sound echoed at the entrance of the
emergency room.
“You should watch your mouth and be mindful of your choice of words!” Ashlyn warned Penelope after
retrieving her numbed hand.

Penelope’s jaw dropped open in doubt. She detected the tingling sensation coming from her cheek. A
clear slap mark could be seen on her bulging cheek.
Once Penelope returned to her senses, tears streamed down her cheeks as she shouted, “Dad! Mom! I
can’t believe she has the guts to slap me in front of others! It hurts! You have to avenge me, dad!”
She attempted to pounce on Ashlyn once again while cussing, but her half-sister returned the favor,
kicking her in the abdomen area, sending her flying to the ground. “Chase them out at once!” Ashlyn
instructed once more.
“Ashlyn, she’s your half-sister! How could you do this to her?” Horace was about to avenge his beloved

However, someone got in his way and stopped him; a gigantic palm held on to Horace’s wrist firmly in
the nick of time.
Ashlyn glared at her father in the eyes, asserting, “I must say I’m very impressed! As a son, you have
abused your mother! Are you trying to leverage your identity as a father and abuse your daughter
again?”
Horace’s face turned pale due to the racking sensation coming from his wrist. He turned around and
looked in the direction of his wrist immediately.
He detected the presence of a tall man who had a grim expression on his face as he cast a stern gaze
at him, devouring his soul through his penetrating gaze.
Horace was aware of the man’s actual identity because he was, after all, part of the upper echelons,
even though he could barely qualify as one. “M-Mr. Nolan?”
He couldn’t believe how strong Lucas was because his wrist was almost broken due to the man’s
powerful grip.
Horace couldn’t recall since when had he offended Lucas either.
“How dare you try to hit her? Do you have a death wish?” Lucas broke the silence, warning Horace. His
words morphed into a sharp blade and penetrated the man’s mind mercilessly.
