My one in a million wife [Ashlyn and Lucas] chapter 212
Especially this arch full of balloons! What’s with Sienna and Lisa’s tastes?
Isn’t it weird to be dressed in traditional clothes in such a modern setting?
The tea party was crawling with guests by now. Ashlyn went in and noticed how many men there were.
She suddenly remembered Sienna mentioning that there would be lots of young and charming men in
attendance.
Gazing at these chaps holding wine glasses while engaging in conversations with upper-class women,
she couldn’t help but frown.
This is a rather strange atmosphere.
Rather than a Haddock Charity event, this seems more like a function for these lonely rich women to find
their next toy boys.
Ashlyn was dumbfounded.
Sienna sat on a white European-style wooden chair, chatting away with several ladies.

“Ms. Berry is especially tight-lipped. Maybe she doesn’t trust our charity foundation enough,” Sienna
replied with a smile.
“Speak of the devil,” a woman remarked cynically.
Everyone looked up to see a slender and graceful figure walking over.
Ashlyn wore a loose-fitting floor-length dress with pink flowers embroidered on it.
Her slender waistline had been accentuated using a pink brocade belt embellished with jade.

A section of her long hair had been styled into a loose bun and fastened with a jade hairpin.
The hairpin was paired with a traditional jewel-laced ornament, which dangled as she walked.
The rest of her hair rested over her shoulders, making her skin look especially smooth and bright.
Everything about her face was perfect— her eyes, nose and lips. A scarlet bracelet danced around on
her wrist.
From afar, the woman looked just like a lady-in-waiting from the olden days. She was absolutely
captivating.
All the noblewomen here were dressed in traditional attire, and each lady was beautiful in her own right.
Yet, none of them looked as enchanting as Ashlyn did.
Her arrival instantly captured everyone’s attention.
Many young men began to stride toward her.
“Hey there, Miss. Would you be interested in a chat? I’m in a bit of a rough patch now, which is why I’ve
come to the charity event. I’ve been teaching in the countryside all this while. The students in my school
have no choice but to use old desks and textbooks, and the school itself is in terrible condition. It gets
really dangerous for the building whenever it rains. Sigh… Would you be so kind as to give us a donation
of five hundred grand?” a young man dressed in a traditional costume pleaded.
Ashlyn glanced at this man. The look on his face seemed to imply that he was deeply concerned about
the children.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut for some reason, Ashlyn could vaguely notice a hint of shrewdness in his eyes. He didn’t seem very
much like an honorable rural school teacher…
Suddenly, another man spoke up. “As if you’re worse off than I am. I’m the secretary of a rural mountain
village. All the youngsters have moved out and only the elderly remain. These poor old folks don’t get
proper food or clothes. Some are even sick or can’t walk well. The entire village relies on me, but I can’t
hold the fort any longer. Then, I heard about this charity event organized by Haddock Group. I’m begging
you, kind lady… Please save us! Even a hundred thousand will be more than enough!”
The two men’s eyes had turned red by now.
A few women glanced at the men after hearing their narratives. The lads looked rather charming and full
of vigor. They didn’t seem like bad people at all.
“Your stories touched me,” said one of the rich women. “I’ve decided to donate five hundred thousand to
each of you. Let’s set up a charity program.”
Upon hearing the woman’s declaration, Sienna instantly grinned. “You’re beautiful on the outside and
inside, Mrs. LeClair. I thank you on the children’s behalf.”
Lisa immediately brought over the charity agreements and proposals.
