Chapter 48
Ashlyn did not open her eyes.
"Don't you think your hubby is the hero?" Lucas probed.
But Ashlyn remained unperturbed and only rolled her eyes in her mind.
Is he crazy? He was so stern and cold back there; now he's so childish and impudent. What is he trying to do? Ashlyn clearly saw the way those women looked at him just now.
They should really see how childish this man is right now.
Lucas was thinking about that kiss before the fight broke out.
Silence resumed in the cabin and the lights became dim again.
He felt restless and thirsty.
Bending over, he wanted to plant a kiss on Ashlyn's lips.
Ashlyn did not move. Lucas smiled slyly, moved closer, and was ready to kiss her.
But before he could reach her lips, Ashlyn nimbly tilted her head and he missed.
The kiss landed on her neck.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Her scent intoxicated Lucas and he kissed her hard.
He did not get to kiss her lips, but he got to kiss her neck. That was enough for him. Ashlyn was not expecting this.
His warm and gentle breath spread across her body. It felt familiar and exciting.
But she quickly pulled away from Lucas and said, "We are already divorced."
Lucas peered at her in the dark.
He shrugged and feigned nonchalance, saying, "I only kissed your neck, not your lips."
He advertently licked his lips and asked, "Don't you miss me?"
Ashlyn laughed and said, "Lucas, please stop being a joke. You are the one who wanted a divorce."
What do you take me for, Lucas? You want me here when you need me, and you want me gone when you're tired of me.
You wanted a divorce, and now you want to mess with me again?
Don't tell me you like playing hard to get.
Lucas was speechless. He realized Ashlyn knew just how to make him speechless.
"Please leave me alone, right now," Ashlyn demanded.
"I just want to stay with you," Lucas said, recalling what she did earlier on when she asked him to throw the two passengers off. She looked so naughty and cute. But she was giving him the cold shoulder now and he did not like it.
Lucas badly wanted to find out what business she had in Italy.
But he knew she would not tell him.
"Whatever," Ashlyn said. She did not want to talk to him anymore. Then, she curled up like a ball as if she were protecting herself against a lunatic.
Lucas looked at her long and fair neck. A kiss on the neck is not that bad after all.
But of course, the best would be her lips.
He was really tired after such a long haul.
So, he eventually fell asleep beside her.
Meanwhile, Jenny had been looking at them for quite a while already.
She could not believe what she saw.
Her jaw dropped looking at Ashlyn seducing Lucas.
What a cheap woman. How dare she seduces Lucas?
Lucas is a stern and severe man, and all this flirtatious woman does is sway him.
How dare both of them do all these nasty things over at the back!
Jenny was furious. She woke Nancy up and asked, "Tell me, this woman is the reason why you went into the cockpit so many times right?"
Nancy finally got to have some much-needed sleep. She was not happy at all to be woken up by Jenny over such a trivial matter. "Jenny Holt, what do you want? What woman are you talking about?"
"That woman on the third row from the back. I saw them doing all sorts of stupid things at the back!" She was so pissed tears started rolling down her eyes.
The loud noises woke the other flight attendants up.
Everyone looked at her groggily. "What's happening, purser?"
