My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 311

I knew it! Ashlyn was the top scorer of the national exams who wasn’t on the list!

Lucas had been making a wild guess all along. Finally, he got to verify the truth with someone aware of the incident.

His mind was blown away the moment Susan unveiled the truth in front of him.

He cast a penetrating gaze at Ashlyn, sizing her up repetitively in disbelief because he couldn’t believe Ashlyn had grown up by her grandmother’s side in the village.

Nevertheless, everything made sense when he thought about it, especially regarding Ashlyn’s relationship with her grandmother. All of a sudden, Lucas felt a great sense of respect towards Susan the moment he figured out she was the one who had brought Ashlyn up since she was young.

“Grandma, thank you so much for everything you have done over the years.” Lucas leaned over and told her softly, “Ashlyn is an exceptional girl.”

Lucas was overjoyed because Ashlyn was the fifteen-year-old prodigy, the top scorer of the national exams he had been searching for all along.

Although Ashlyn was the center of their conversation, she remained silent throughout the session because they didn’t give her the chance to express her point of view.
