My One in a Million Wife

My one in a million wife [Ashlyn and Lucas] chapter 309

However, his explanation had made things worse because Ashlyn saw those to be another one of

Lucas’ excuses.

“When are you going to stop behaving like a child?” Ashlyn glared at Lucas once more because she

had had enough of the man’s childish behavior.

Suddenly, a nurse sprinted over, announcing, “Dr. Berry, your grandmother is awake!”

“I’ll drop by her ward immediately.” Ashlyn nodded, rushing over to Susan’s ward as soon as she could.

Without a second thought, Lucas went after her immediately.

Susan, who was lying on the bed, looked pale and haggard. Since she had just regained

consciousness, she was extremely worn out.

Her hands had been pricked by the needle because part of her treatment plan was IV therapy. In short,

the nutrients she required would be delivered into her system through infusion.

She surveyed the surroundings and realized she wasn’t in the attic; neither was she in the Berry

Residence because she was in an entirely unfamiliar place.

While she lost herself in the process of thought, she heard footsteps as someone approached her

ward. Before long, a familiar voice could be heard as Ashlyn asked, “Grandma, how do you feel?”

“Ashlyn…” Susan turned around and had her gaze fixated on the woman in front of her. She stretched

her arm, attempting to hold Ashlyn’s hand.

Ashlyn quickly held her grandmother’s hand firmly, asking, “Grandma, why didn’t you get in touch with

me? I’m sure you’re aware of your condition?”

Susan heaved a long sigh of despair, explaining, “I don’t want to cause you any trouble. Ashlyn, it’s not

a big deal, I’m sure I’ll recover in a few days…”

“Grandma, what are you talking about? I’m your granddaughter!” Ashlyn was heartbroken, she stared

at her grandmother in the eyes as she helped her to sit upright.

“That is the reason why I don’t want to cause you any trouble because you’re my beloved

granddaughter. I can’t possibly waste your hard-earned money because the medical bill may cost you a

fortune,” Susan looked at Ashlyn in the eyes, explaining the rationale behind her decision.

“How can you keep me in the dark when dad has treated you this badly? If I hadn’t dropped by to visit

you, I wouldn’t have found out that they have forced you to live in the attic!” Ashlyn’s eyes glinted

wrathfully, reprimanding her father’s action.

“There’s nothing wrong with living in the attic. It’s actually quite a comfortable space since I’m the only

one around,” Susan tried to lighten the mood so she pulled her granddaughter’s leg.

“Grandma, once you’re discharged from the hospital, I want you to move into my place! I won’t allow

you to return to dad’s place anymore no matter what! I don’t want you to suffer anymore, Grandma!”

Ashlyn held on to her grandmother’s hand, suggesting, “I’m currently staying with a few of my friends in

a villa. Do you remember the twins? They are my housemates. I’m sure they’ll enjoy your presence as

much as I do.”

Susan shook her head. “That won’t be necessary, Ashlyn. It doesn’t make any sense for an old woman

like me to stay with a bunch of youngsters, right? Since I have a son, it only makes sense for me to

stay with my son.”

“Grandma, can you please listen to me for once? Please?” Ashlyn begged her grandmother.

Suddenly, a man’s husky voice could be heard as the man greeted, “Grandma, this is for you.” The

moment Susan raised her head, she was astonished because a handsome man had made his way into

her ward. …

What a great looking young man!

Susan had encountered all sorts of people throughout her life, but she had never once run into such a

handsome man with a majestic presence before.

She asked confusedly, “You are…”

“I’m Ashlyn’s friend, Grandma. My name is Lucas. I have dropped by to pay you a visit.” Lucas handed

over the bouquet he brought along with him to Susan. Apart from the bouquet, the few boxes of tonics

Spencer brought along with him seemed to be those of premium qualities.

“Since when have you befriended such a handsome young man, Ashlyn?” Susan asked her in a soft

voice.

Ashlyn was rendered speechless by Lucas’ performance.

What’s wrong with him? He’s getting gradually out of control by the day.

“I met him a few years ago,” Ashlyn replied helplessly.

“Thank you so much, Lucas. I’m sure Ashlyn has always caused you all sorts of troubles, right?” Susan

said courteously in return.

He’s such a handsome young man!

“Not all, Grandma. I’m the one who has caused her all sorts of troubles,” Lucas looked at Ashlyn in the

eyes intimately, saying.

“Thankfully, you’re aware that you’re nothing but a nuisance,” Ashlyn replied nonchalantly.

Lucas was rendered speechless by Ashlyn’s reply because she actually made sense.

“Ashlyn, you should mind your manners. After all, he’s our guest. You’re not supposed to talk to a guest

like this,” Susan reprimanded her granddaughter as she chuckled.

Ashlyn remained silent thereafter and behaved obediently as her grandmother instructed.

I can’t believe it! The fearless woman, who doesn’t even flinch in front of a bunch of thugs, is behaving

like a timid little girl in front of her grandmother.

I guess it goes without saying that her grandmother plays a huge role in her life.

Once again, Lucas detected an interesting side of Ashlyn unknown to others.

“Lucas, please take a seat,” Susan invited Lucas to join them enthusiastically.
