My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas)
Chapter 850

Chapter 850

Kelly's voice was filled with despair as she bellowed in shock, "What does he want? What should I do to make him save me?"

"He said that it's not impossible to save you, but you must listen to my instructions," said the man before bending down and whispering beside Kelly's ears. Immediately, her face was drained of all color. "N-No..."

"I've given you the opportunity. If you aren't going to grab it, don't blame Mr. Haddock for ignoring you."

A cold expression crossed the man's face as he stared at Kelly as if he was looking at a dead person.

Fear surfaced in Kelly's eyes. "Fine. Fine! I'll listen to you."

The man's lips curled to form a cold smirk as he turned around and left. "Wait for the news."

When he closed the door and left the cell, a few police officers were walking toward him. He lowered his cap, looked down, and brushed past them.

A police officer shot a suspicious glance at his back. "Why does he look slightly unfamiliar?"

"Yeah! I think that he seems quite unfamiliar too."

However, they did not dwell on it further.

Unknown to them, a woman in the cell was clutching her neck painfully. Her eyes were wide open and she was straining to even breathe.

"Argh! Argh!" Shrieks of pain escaped her mouth. Upon hearing that, the police officers outside rushed in.

They saw Kelly digging her fingers into the ground in pain, her fingernails all cracked. Blood dripped down her fingers and flowed out incessantly.

"Save me! Save me!"

When she saw the police officers, she stretched out a bloody palm toward them.

Disheveled hair cascaded down her shoulders, while her eyes bulged out of their sockets. Blood flowed out of her eye sockets, making her look like a ghost who had just crawled out from the depths of hell. Shocked, the police officers yelled, "Quick! Quick! Call the ambulance!"

Like a fish out of water, Kelly crawled to the feet of a police officer. A strangled voice escaped her lips as she said, "Dix... Dix... He... He is... Killing me... Dix..."

"What are you saying? What are you saying? Who killed you?" asked the police officer nervously.

However, Kelly's eyes rolled backward and her head fell to the side. At that moment, her breathing stopped completely.

News of Kelly, the famous female celebrity, dying in the detention center immediately spread across the Internet like wildfire that afternoon.

The netizens had gone wild.

One of them typed: She just got imprisoned for stealing something, and she died within such a short period! Why do I think that someone killed her?

Another replied: I think that it's murder too.

A netizen suggested: Did Ashlyn kill her?

Someone replied: Hey, that's a far-fetched theory. Ashlyn isn't so bold that she'd go to the detention center and kill her, right?

Another netizen typed a comment: But she had a conflict with Ashlyn previously.

Someone chimed in: What the f*ck? She's Mrs. Nolan! With all that power and authority, it's a piece of cake for her to kill someone.

There seemed to be a mysterious force trying to push all the criticism in Ashlyn's direction.

Scandalous news kept appearing on the Internet.

Another netizen left a comment: My friend who works at the police station said that on the day that Kelly died, a man pretended to be a police officer and entered the prison cell! Someone replied: Oh my goodness! Looks like Ashlyn sent someone there to kill Kelly. Her death is so strangely horrendous.

One of them asked: Didn't she just steal a ring? Is there a need to kill her?

Another commented: Ashlyn's such a ruthless woman! Her image has been destroyed.

One of them agreed: Utterly ruined!

Those sorts of comments kept flooding the web one after the other as if they were determined to drag Ashlyn down.

Meanwhile, a shooting range at Lake City had been booked completely.

Ashlyn was wearing a dark-colored camouflage uniform, with the belt accentuating her sexy waist.

Her legs seemed even more slender and alluring in those boots.

She looked so stunning that the many male staff there could not tear their eyes away from her.

However, ignoring their stares, she gripped the gun and aimed at the red center of the furthest target.

Bang!

A bullet flew out, hitting the center of the target.

Bull's eye!

Yet, she did not seem as excited as someone who had just hit the bullseye. Instead, she cocked the gun expressionlessly and when she raised her head again, she fired another five shots continuously.
