Chapter 459

I’m the victim, and yet I have to apologize! How embarrassing!

“Hmph! Listen up! If you dare to insult my sis-in-law one more time, I’ll beat you up for sure!” Blair growled at Hayden.

“Have some self-control, Hayden! I don’t care about the idols or models you’re after, but you don’t deserve my goddess a single bit!” Tinsor spat.

“Who insulted her?”

Suddenly, the door to the office opened. A man clad in a black suit strode in on his long legs.

He had a well-chiseled face and charming features that could intimidate anyone who dared to go near him.

He glanced around the room before settling his eyes on Ashlyn.

“Lucas!” Blair exclaimed, his eyes widening in surprise. He rushed over to Lucas immediately. “Lucas, Hayden insulted Ashlyn and I beat him up for it!”

“Why is your brother here?” Tinsor huffed. When is my brother ever going to come?

Ashlyn raised an eyebrow. So these two kids beat Hayden up just because he insulted me?

Were they trying to avenge me?

Well…

She glanced at the two youthful and energetic boys before her.

I would never have guessed that two kids would step up to protect me one day…

She grinned.

Her smile was warm and bright like the early morning sun.

Everyone looked towards her at that moment; they were all mesmerized by the beauty of her smile.

“Not bad,” Lucas praised, pulling out a credit card from his pocket and throwing it to Blair. “Here’s five million as a reward.”

“Thank you, Lucas!” Blair was elated.

He was convinced that Lucas was going to beat him up the moment he arrived at the police station.

The last thing he expected from Lucas was a reward.

What a pleasant surprise!

Ashlyn walked over to the two boys. “Fighting isn’t the right way to deal with problems, but I’ll let you two go this time. As the young masters of your respective families, you have to learn to be responsible.

Don’t get yourselves into trouble too often, alright?”

The two boys froze, feeling a little embarrassed.

Because they had beat up Hayden for Ashlyn’s sake, getting lectured by her kind of spoiled the mood.

Even so, they felt as though someone had drizzled honey onto their hearts, and they savored the feeling of being able to talk to her.

Tinsor, in particular, had never been discouraged from answering a threat with violence due to his family background.

He struggled to come up with a reply to Ashlyn.

The more he looked at her, the more he fell for her.

How great would it be if I could stay with her and listen to her beautiful voice all day long…

Urgh, when is my brother ever going to come?

Seeing how silent they were, Ashlyn simply grinned and continued, “Thank you for standing up for me.

Dinner’s on me tonight.”

“Dinner?” Blair said, perking up.

“Really?” Tinsor asked with his eyes twinkling in surprise.

“Just this once,” she quipped with a smile. “We should celebrate! You’ve matured so much!”

Lucas’s face darkened at the sound of that.

She’s never asked me out for dinner before…

Dixon was not very happy about this. “You see, Dr. Berry, my brother has admitted his mistakes. Can’t you take him along?”

“Why? He insulted Ashlyn!” Blair retorted angrily.
