Chapter 752
Lucas' brows scrunched up. “Come in.”
After hearing his response, a tall figure pushed the door open and came in.
It was Ryan. The diamond stud on his ear sparkled under the light, and the streak of dyed hair on his head was
especially eye-catching.
Caleb was rather annoyed with the Yates family by now.
“Mr. Yates, why are you here? If you're here for a free meal, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. There are no more
seats left,” he scoffed.
Ryan did not grow impatient or furious despite Caleb's mocking words.
His lips curled. “Mr. Powell, I'm here to talk to Ms. Berry.”
He then strode toward Ashlyn's seat.
Lucas' frown deepened at that. Another man who's here for her! D*mn it! His chest felt tight.
He watched as the flirty Ryan went over to Ashlyn and gave her a polite bow. Being the gentleman he was, he said
politely, “I'm sorry. I really am. I'm offering an apology on behalf of Mary. Her actions must've caused you harm. It
was the Yates family—”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore he could finish, Ashlyn interjected, “Mr. Yates, it was Mary and Penelope who did something wrong, so they
should be the ones to apologize to me. You shouldn't apologize on behalf of them. If they kill you one day, are you
going to serve sentence on behalf of them?”
She arched a brow, and her voice was charmingly seductive.
Obviously, she was not about to accept Ryan's apology.
Ryan was stunned. “If that's what you want, I shall ask someone to give them a ride here.”
“No need for that.” Ashlyn did not want to see them at all, for they would only irritate her. “I accept your apology,
so you can leave now.”
Pursing his lips, Ryan left the private room.
Caleb glanced at his retreating figure and blurted out, “Why do I think Mr. Yates resembles Lynnie?”
At the door, Ryan froze in his tracks and whipped his head around to stare at Ashlyn.
At the same time, Ashlyn lifted her head and met his gaze.
Almost everyone in the private room started observing them.
They had the same straight nose, pencil-thin eyebrows, and the same lip shapes.
Fae gaped in disbelief. “I think the same, too! Lottie resembles them as well. Look, their lips look exactly the same!”
Charlotte responded shyly, “I look nothing like Ashlyn. She's so pretty!”
However, that was not how Ryan perceived the message as his gaze dimmed.
Without a word, he walked out and shut the door behind him.
“Let's continue eating. I'm starving,” Ashlyn announced coolly. She then began eating the food on the table.
In a low voice, Tinsor urged, “Blair, you got many fans online after you showed your skills at the hospital. They
praise you for being good at martial arts. Teach me!”
“I leerned those from Ashlyn.” Bleir stuffed some food into his mouth. Glencing et Tinsor, he seid, “I told you to

“I learned those from Ashlyn.” Blair stuffed some food into his mouth. Glancing at Tinsor, he said, “I told you to
come with me, but you refused.”
“I have to follow my family rules. I can't become someone else's student!” Tinsor glared at Blair enviously.
“Don't be her student, then. You can just learn from her.” Blair shot him a smug look. “Let's train together
tomorrow after work?”
“Sure!”
They were both interns at Haddock Group now. Their pay was satisfactory, but they were slightly nervous to be
working there.
Getting to his feet, Winsor greeted, “Ms. Berry, it's been a while since we last saw each other.”
The entire world knew she was Lucas' wife after they got to see each other again.
When he learned of the news, his heart nearly broke into pieces.
He could not believe Lucas kept the fact that he was married a secret for years.
Lucas must be inwardly delighted when he saw me trying to court Ashlyn! Ugh, I feel the urge to beat him up.
As they were in public, he had to pretend that he was not bothered so no one would know how annoyed he felt.
