Ashley took a deep breath and looked away, blinking her eyes continuously to get rid of the tears.

Then, she looked at Lucas. “Thank you,” she said.

Lucas’ eyes fixed on her in an unwavering stare and took in her reaction.

After a while, he parted his lips and requested, “Honey, since you want to thank me, let’s have a meal together today.”

Ashlyn glanced at the man who was getting under her skin. She should have reprimanded him for being a busybody.

She couldn’t bring herself to do so and even accepted his kind gesture.

Ashlyn couldn’t believe she had just thanked him.

Her actions were getting stranger and stranger by the day to the point that she didn’t even know what she wanted!
