My Extraordinary Wife Chapter 988

Chapter 988Chapter 986 Competition
Once again, the crowd was left speechless.
They could not believe Harvey had just given a resort to Ashlyn without hesitation.
Even Ashlyn seemed startled by his actions. “Uncle Harvey, you can’t just give me cars, properties, and
companies out of the blue…”
At that, Lucas felt pressured. Why are the people my wife knows all so rich?
Upon seeing the expensive gift Harvey gave to Ashlyn, Janet began questioning her choice of gift for
her role model.
Regardless of everything, the Smith family was a notable family who had been working for the
government for three generations.
She fished out a car key and shoved it into Ashlyn’s hands before huffing. “This is the new Lamborghini
that my grandpa just gave to me, but it’s now yours.”
“No, wait, Mr. Field’s the star of the night. Why are you all giving me gifts instead?”
novelbinAshlyn was sure that they had all lost their minds while the rest could only stare at Ashlyn in disbelief.
Right then, a hoarse voice came from behind the people. “Ashlyn…”
Ashlyn whipped her head toward the voice and widened her eyes. “Mr. Newman, you’re here too?”
“I heard that you were coming tonight, so I came!” The elderly man’s eyes were bright as he looked at
Ashlyn lovingly. “It’s been three years since we last saw each other.”“How are you?” she asked in concern.
“Pretty well, thanks to you.” Albert patted her hand. “Come, have a cup of coffee with me.”
Again, the crowd was stunned.
“Mr. Newman is a big shot from Jadeborough! How does he know Ashlyn too?”
“It looks like he’s quite close with her.”
“Uh-huh… Moreover, Mr. Newman is one of the founding members of this country. He’s quite the
respected man in H Nation!”
Once Albert sat down, a server came over with Black Ivory coffee and filled a cup for Ashlyn and
Albert.
“I’m actually here because I have something to ask of you,” Albert said, picking up his cup to take a sip
of his coffee.
The crowd inhaled sharply when they realized what Albert had said.
If Ashlyn was capable of getting someone as powerful as Albert to ask for a favor from her, she had to
be some kind of impressive individual.
Ashlyn raised a brow and nonchalantly said, “Please let me know whatever is it you need.”
“My granddaughter is a troublemaker,” was all Albert said before sighing. He then gestured to the
young man behind him, who took a step forward and passed Ashlyn a file.
Ashlyn opened it. A moment later, she widened her eyes. “This is what she wants?”“Yes, no matter what I say, she insists on taking that path.” The elderly man had a troubled look on his
face. “No one in the family can convince her otherwise. It looks like… we need you to intervene in this.”
Ashlyn passed the file back to Albert before smiling at him. “Mr. Newman, you’re a powerful man, but
you’re helpless against a young girl?”
“Ms. Berry, do you have to take a jab at me?” A sorrowful look crossed his face. “The girl lost her
parents when she was a child, and I ended up spoiling her.”
“She’s an ambitious girl, and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with young people trying out new
things,” Ashlyn said in consolation. “I think her idea of wanting to join the air force is a good one, but
she needs to work harder. If she wants to join it, she’ll… have to go through various tough tests.”
“Janet from the Smith family has been undergoing special training every day for the past year and more
before she finally got into the air force, so how can anyone just join the air force so easily? Moreover,
she’s a soft girl. You’re her role model. She’s always looking up to you and mimicking your actions. I’m
really fretting terribly over this.” Albert let out another sigh. “Moreover, that Smith girl is competing
against her for everything—clothes, cars, food. The two of them keep competing with each other. Now,
look, my granddaughter wants to join the air force just because she heard that the Smith girl has joined
it.”
Ashlyn arched her brow. “She’s outstanding to be able to get a pilot license. In fact, she’s as good as
Janet, so… Mr. Newman, you don’t need to worry about her that much.”
