My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 688

“This woman caused your sister to go deaf, yet you're protecting her? What in the world are you doing?” With a wave of Franklin's hand, dozens of men in black rushed forward and surrounded Blair and Ashlyn.

Livia walked in front of Ashlyn and raised the latter's chin with her forefinger.

With a cocky smile, she uttered, “Ms. Berry, you made my daughter go deaf, and you caused the death of my eldest daughter. Since this is the case... An eye for an eye, what say you? Lucas may not have the heart to even pluck a single strand of hair off your head, but not us.”

“The whole world knows that I didn't kill Claire; it was Carmen.” Confronted by Livia, Ashlyn did not budge a single inch. Instead, she merely eyed Livia coldly.

The middle-aged woman smiled as she gently caressed Ashlyn's hair. In a hushed voice, she stated “So what? In my eyes, you're the one who killed her, and you're the one who made my little girl go deaf!”

Sizing Ashlyn up as if she were an object, Livia questioned, “Ashlyn Berry, how do you plan on paying the cost of your sin?”

Blair could not watch on any longer. As he grimaced, he remarked in a low voice, “Madam, someone else spiked Naomi's drink!”

“But the drink was meant for Ashlyn! Blair, you need to get your facts right. That drug was intended for Ashlyn, to begin with! Instead, your sister drank it, so isn't it Ashlyn's fault? Also, I'm your mother. Is this how you speak to your own mother? Blair Nolan, where are your manners?” remarked Livia in an icy tone.

She had completely made use of her status as the madam of the Nolan family.
