All other delicacies in the world tasted bland after he had tried Ashlynâs cooking. In fact, his stomach would be upset after he ate dishes that others cooked.
âYouâre crazy,â said Ashlyn as she glared over. What kind of stomach does this man have? How did he finish all that so quickly?
âWeâre heading to the supermarket,â instructed Lucas to Spencer.
The car reached the supermarketâs parking lot soon after, and all three of them went in.
Spencer was responsible for pushing the cart while Lucas followed closely behind Ashlyn.
Ashlyn, on the other hand, focused on picking the groceries.
The unearthly handsome man and the stunningly gorgeous lady stood together in the supermarket.
Many walked past them, but everyone kept turning around to stare at Ashlyn and Lucas.
The man was tall, and the aura he exuded repelled everyone, so no one dared to stare at his face.
The lady, however, was cute with clear eyes and gorgeous brows. She was so beautiful that it was shocking.
Many security guards couldnât help staring at Ashlyn from afar.
Lucas forced his temper down and stopped himself from acting up, but the vein on his forehead was jumping profusely.
His face darkened because he suddenly realized that the woman he loved attracted everyoneâs attention, regardless of where she was or what time of the day it was.
She caught so many peopleâs attention even though she was only there to buy some groceries.
An intense sense of danger welled up in his heart. It was the kind of threat that Lucas had never felt before.
He suddenly held the womanâs wrist and instructed, âRemember to keep your distance from everyone else.â
âHuh? What?â
Ashlyn didnât understand why that man had suddenly gone insane once more. What now?
Ashlyn was busy choosing the steaks, and the box of beef fell from her hand and back to the freezer.
Annoyed, she tilted her head up and saw, from Lucasâ eyes, that he was being serious.
Her confused expression was extremely cute and completely different from her usual distant expression.
That cuteness could drive anyone crazy, but she was not aware of it.
Lucasâ throat went dry, and he put his hand on the back of her head before he dragged her face to his chest. âYouâre not allowed to show anyone else that expression,â instructed Lucas.
Just be mean and distant with everyone else. That cute side of yours is reserved for me.
Ashlyn struggled out of his chest and looked up. She protested angrily, âWhy are you acting so crazy all of a sudden? You donât actually think that everyone will fall for me instantly and tackle over, do you? I-is there something wrong with your brain or something?â
Lucas frowned and insisted, âI wonât allow you to shop for groceries anymore.â
Ashlyn was speechless.
This possessive man is beyond hope. Seriously? Heâs jealous of strangers? Is that really what this is? I didnât read this situation wrong, did I?
Ashlyn thought that she had already clarified everything and even reminded him how they were divorced.
He was the one who asked for the divorce, so she thought that his mind was getting clearer.
So why does it look like he is actually getting even more confused? Is he addicted to being jealous?
Youâre not my husband anymore, so what right do you have to be jealous? You got Principal Potter and Supervisor Granger over. That is the only reason Iâm shopping for groceries with you right now, and cooking for you later. I wonât do any of that otherwise, not even in your dreams!
Ashlyn was downright furious at that moment.
Why didnât she notice just how possessive that man was?
He was so possessive that it was crazy, and she never even asked for his help in the first place!
Ashlyn felt a headache coming.
The two of them were too beautiful, and their hug only made everyoneâs eyes bulge.
Dang, you donât need to show off your romance even if you are that good-looking.
Even the middle-aged lady working on the weighing machine was stunned.
Lucasâ deadly glare swept across the room.
The middle-aged lady felt a chill run down her spine, and she quickly turned back to her job.
Oh, my gosh!
The lady wouldâve fled the supermarket if she wasnât working there.
That man is too powerful. Iâve lived for so long and have seen so much, but even I canât get myself to look him in the eye.
The middle-aged ladyâs legs were still trembling even after Ashlyn and Lucas had left.
Spencer carried the fresh produce they just bought and followed behind.
Lucas and Ashlyn walked side-by-side down the path in the tranquil garden to reach the villa.
The stars donned the sky, and Lucas felt serene and happy.
