Chapter 966 A Threat

Shiela had always thought that Richard was a gentle and warm man, but somehow, there were also times when she

realized he would never open up to her.

It was as if there was an irreconcilable chasm between them.

She once suspected that Cassandra had been trying to snatch Richard from her, but what just happened threw a

totally different light on the situation.

For all Shiela knew, she might have suspected the wrong person all along, for she had just caught Richard gazing at

Ashlyn with tenderness and love in his eyes. In fact, he would have patted Ashlyn's head indulgently if Ashlyn had

not moved aside agilely. “Richard, don't mess up my hair.”

“Come on. What's the big deal? The hair stylist is here,” he replied with his eyes curved in a smile.

Richard was not a man who smiled easily, but whenever he was with Ashlyn, he could just be himself instead of

maintaining the image of the company's president. It was like a brother was having a chat with his sister.

“I know, but it's a hassle to do my hair again,” Ashlyn remarked, raising her brows.

Their interaction took Sadie, Shiela, and the staff aback.

Richard seemed much closer to Ashlyn than anyone from the Jensen family. In fact, he was not even as attentive to

his fiancée.

The person in charge of the show was incredibly remorseful because it seemed like he had been trying to curry

favor with the wrong person.

As for Shiela, she was so irritated that she clenched her fists tightly, driving her nails into her flesh.

The smile on her face was so distorted that one could mistake her for crying. Out of jealousy, she tried to regain

Richard's attention by saying, “Richie! I think the baby just kicked me.”

Hearing her, Richard turned back and pulled her into his arms. “I told you not to come, but you didn't listen. I'd be

upset if anything happened to the baby.”

“But I'm the president's wife. I have to attend the company's event. What would people say if I'm absent today?”

Shiela explained, gazing at Richard lovingly as if she was trying to show Sadie, Cassandra, and Ashlyn that she was

the rightful person to have Richard.

What's so good about Ashlyn? She's married and soiled. Why is Richie so close to her? I'm the one who has his child.

I'll show all these women I am his only woman when I marry him.

Shiela had gone to the anniversary event that day because she wanted to put all the women who had eyes on

Richard in their places by showing them that she was his fiancée—the one worthy of him.

Reading the room clearly, Ashlyn looked at the pretentious Shiela and then at the fuming Sadie, who was worked up

by Richard's decision.

It was apparent that Sadie dared not question Richard, so she asked Robert for help instead. “Dad, do something.

Ask Richard to give me that role. I want to wear the night sky dress.”

“That's enough. He must have his reason for doing that,” Robert dissuaded. He did not have the gut to challenge

Richard's decision.

“You'll have another chance, Sadie. Besides, doing the closing show is already good enough,” the father consoled

her.

“But the night sky dress looks so pretty,” Sadie insisted.

She was upset and irked, for she did not see why she should let Ashlyn have it all when her sister was the one who

would be marrying Richard, the president of the company.

“There are many pretty dresses you can try in the future. It doesn't have to be this one,” Robert coaxed, trying to

swallow his disgruntlement.

His son-in-law's unquestionable support for Ashlyn had shown him the importance of the woman.

I bet that woman is really something since Richard is also helping her, but that makes sense. She's the woman

Lucas Nolan married, anyway. She must be no mean fry. I just hope Sadie knows when to stop before stepping on

Richard's toes.

Robert had mistakenly thought that Ashlyn had fallen out of favor with Lucas, but it turned out that Richard was still

her solid backing.
