My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas)
Chapter 653

Chapter 653

Jackson looked at Lucas as his lips curled into a smile, but it was obviously a dry smile.

"Mr. Nolan, we had a deal, and rest assured that I will fulfill my promise. However..."

He looked straight at Ashlyn. "Does your female companion have something to hide? Why is she wearing a hyper-realistic mask?"

Lucas held Ashlyn's waist with his arm intimately before leisurely glancing at Jackson. "She's my woman, and I don't want anybody to see her face because..."

"Because?" Jackson had no idea what Lucas was hinting at and pressed on relentlessly.

"I will get jealous." Lucas' unruly voice sounded beside Ashlyn's ear.

What a scoundrel!

Jackson also did not expect Lucas to show his affection in public.

He could not believe his ears.

"You're such a joker, Mr. Nolan."

Ashlyn felt like she had been scalded by the heat exuding from the man's chest. Following that, Lucas bit her ear.

"Excuse us, Commander Bush. It's getting late. We should be heading back to get some rest," the man said as he walked away. He had his arm around her the whole time.

Ashlyn shrieked in silence when she saw how the man was acting. You pervert! I only put on this mask and pretended to put on a public display of affection with you to prevent any unavoidable trouble! Jackson was not someone to be trifled with, and she did not want to meet him yet.

The moment they left the room, Lucas pulled her onto his back. "Honey, I'll carry you."

"Are you kidding me!" Ashlyn raised her hand, intending to hit him. However, Lucas grabbed her fist and said, "It's not a good idea to stick around. We should leave tonight."

"Where are we going?" Ashlyn was startled.

She was still in a daze when Lucas had already carried her onto his back. He started rushing toward the emergency exit.

He was as fast as lightning and moved around easily.

Even though Ashlyn always thought of herself as an agile person, she was amazed when she saw how fast Lucas was with her on his back.

Under such a strong sprint, Ashlyn did not feel the slightest jolt even though she was on Lucas' back.

His balance was wonderful.

She was especially shocked when she realized that Lucas was moving up the stairs!

His target was the rooftop.

Could somebody be waiting for us there?

Before Ashlyn had enough time to think about it, Lucas had already put her down on the floor.

She was stunned, but Lucas soon threw her toward the rooftop's entrance.

The ladder toward the rooftop had broken into two.

Ashlyn gritted her teeth and tried her best to stretch out her hand. She skillfully grabbed the remaining half of the ladder at the rooftop entrance.

She was about to stretch out her hand to Lucas when she heard him say, "Climb up!"

Ashlyn looked at the man as he sprinted. Lucas was powerful and extremely fast.

He was the one who threw her up just now.

However, Lucas had no external assistance helping him at this moment.

Suddenly, several men in black appeared out of nowhere, and they instantly held up their guns, aiming at Lucas.

Lucas threw a kick, and the man failed to fire at him. The man could not help but cover his head with his hands.

Following a loud banging sound, Lucas sent the man flying with a single kick.

Then, the man felt a sharp pain in his neck following a flash of light.

He stretched out his hand to feel his neck. Blood instantly spilled out of his neck wound, and the man's eyes widened as he collapsed to the ground.

Lucas, who ended a man's life within seconds, did not linger around. He leaped into mid-air and kicked in different directions. Soon, he successfully got rid of two people who came to attack him. The warm blood had stained the ground.

There was a faint look of bloodlust in the man's eyes under his stray hair.

The enemies were horrified by what they saw under the emergency exit's light.

Lucas soon turned around.
