My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas)
Chapter 618

Chapter 618

Blair asked nervously about Naomi's condition.

"Other than some external wounds, there's a certain kind of toxin in her body. However, we can't identify what it is at the moment with our current facilities."

The doctor turned to look at Naomi with a serious expression. "Ms. Nolan, do you recall having any adverse reactions in your body usually?"

Naomi looked at the doctor in surprise. There's some kind of toxin in my body? Could it be the drink that was drugged?

Her chest tightened with fear and anxiety as she tried to recall how she felt lately.

"I don't think I noticed anything different..."

"It's possible that the incubation period of the poison is long. So, you should replace ways to get it out of your system as soon as possible because we know nothing about it. I'll speak with the other professionals in the hospital about this. Once we figure something out, I'll inform you, Ms. Nolan," the doctor said with a serious expression.

Naomi nodded and replied, "Okay."

Blair couldn't sit still anymore. He was anxious like a cat on hot bricks. "D*mn you, Helena! How dare she do this to you? I'll make her pay for this!"

Naomi gripped Blair's arm and said in a depressed voice, "Calm down, Blair. I don't know what I did to offend her that made her do this to me. I'm sure she won't admit to it even if you go and ask her." Blair pursed his lips in anger. "What else can I do? If there's really nothing we can do, I'll get Ashlyn's help!"

Naomi felt worse because she was the one poisoned. Besides, the doctor said that there was a possibility that the incubation period of the poison was slightly longer, so it might get serious the moment the poison started spreading over her body.

It was like a ticking time bomb that could go off anytime and blast her into pieces.

I'm still young! I don't want to die yet! I can't die yet, especially when Lucas and Ashlyn still haven't reconciled! I want a nephew!

The more she thought about it, the more depressed she became. In the end, she decided to sit in the car and couldn't help but close her eyes.

Meanwhile, in the lobby on the first floor of Nightsky Private Club, Ashlyn noticed Jared at a glance despite the bright lights.

The sunny and handsome man was dressed in a fancy, floral shirt, and he had a pair of black jeans on. His outfit did not match his facial features. "Why did you want to meet here?" Ashlyn asked as she took the seat next to him.

He gave a faint smile. "Sometimes, we have to relax. Here, Boss. Cheers."

Ashlyn raised her brows. Jared took his wine glass and clinked it against hers.

Both of them finished their wine in an instant.

Ashlyn only remembered the date after a short moment. She couldn't help but glance at him with pity.

Jared was someone who had gone through a lot. Every year on this day, he would feel melancholic.

"Mr. Nolan, the private room is at the end of the corridor," said a man with a big belly as he politely led the way.

Lucas had one hand in his pocket, and a few of his men in black suits walked behind him.

As he walked, he looked casually at the crowd in the lobby. With a single glance, he saw the striking beauty who was clinking her glass with Jared.

Her facial features were exquisitely beautiful and dazzling, and she looked a little bewitching under the shifting lights. She had a black shirt on with a little black singlet inside that exposed her fair and slender waist.

D*mn it! Does she even know how alluring she is? So many men have their eyes on her!

Lucas took a deep breath.

Although they were far from one another and were separated by the crowd, he was immediately able to see her clearly despite the bright, flashing lights.

Her pretty face, as well as her soft and delicate lips, were engraved in his mind.

In that instant, all he could see was Ashlyn.

He realized that no matter how much time had passed, and what happened between them, he had always been able to replace her in a crowd easily.

He continued to stare at Ashlyn as she drank with Jared.
