Chapter 534

“I am surprised to see so many people interested in that movie.” Jared walked over with a plate of fruits in his hand

and sat beside Ashlyn.

Ashlyn took a strawberry and shoved it into her mouth. “Greg’s comeback is bound to attract attention. Of course

everyone would be curious.”

Hesitation flashed across Jared’s eyes as he said, “Boss, I don’t know if I should tell you this.”

“What?”

“Mr. Nolan invested three hundred million in that movie.”

Ashlyn’s hand, which was holding the strawberry, paused mid-air, then she looked up and met Jared’s gaze in

disbelief. “What did you just say?”

Jared had no choice but to steel himself and explained everything to her.

“Is he crazy?” Ashlyn frowned and whipped out her phone to call Lucas.

It was a rare occurrence for her to call Lucas, hence...

In the hospital right across the street, Lucas’ lips curled up into a smile when he saw her name appear on the

screen of his phone. Even his eyes lit up in delight.

“Hello,” he greeted her with his deep and husky voice.

Upon hearing his sexy voice, Ashlyn’s ears burned, and she nearly flung her phone away.

After taking a deep breath, she uttered, “Have you gone crazy? Why did you invest three hundred million?”

“Oh, do you mean the movie?” Hearing that it was about work, Lucas’ enthusiasm dimmed. A hint of displeasure

entered his voice. “Can’t I invest in your movie?”

Mr. Nolan, you sound like a fatuous ruler!

Spencer couldn’t help but chide silently.

“But you invested too much!” Ashlyn couldn’t understand how his mind worked. “Greg said three hundred million

would be enough, and I gave it to him already. So why did you make that investment? Do you have too much

money but nowhere to spend it? Greg doesn’t need that much money.”

“Honey, I need to support your work and dreams through my actions, not just through words.” Lucas’ words

sounded over the phone like a sensuous and melodious cello.

Lying on the hospital bed with a pillow propped behind him, Lucas started imagining how touched Ashlyn would be

at his generous gesture.

“I have money, so you didn’t have to do that.”

Alas, Ashlyn’s reply crushed his weird fantasy instantly.

She’s as stubborn as always. If only she would stop trying to put up a strong front and let me help her instead.

After hanging up, Lucas shook his head wryly.

He had been recovering well for the past few days, so he should be able to get discharged in a couple of days.

Nevertheless, he needed time to recuperate before he could regain his health.

It was late at night.

Ashlyn was already in bed with her eyes shut.

She had taken the antidote to her poison and needed to rest well.

Later that night, a tall figure suddenly inched closer to her bed.

The man lowered his gaze at the woman who was wrapped up in the blanket with only her head visible.

Her exquisite face looked adorable with her thick lashes and her lips that were painted a seductive red.

She had been taking the antidote regularly every day, so she was recovering well and was no longer pale-looking.

However, she had lost a lot of weight.

Ashlyn might be sound asleep, but she could still sense someone watching her.

Frowning, she opened her eyes eventually and saw the handsome man right by her bed.

Lucas’ heart jolted in shock. Shit, she saw me! She’s awake! He was struggling to come up with an explanation

when the woman rubbed her eyes groggily and muttered, “Eh? Why am I dreaming of Lucas again?”

Again?

Did she dream of me before this?

A fuzzy, warm feeling overwhelmed his heart.

He felt as if he had swallowed a whole jar of honey when he heard her words.
