Chapter 622

Ashlyn’s heart dropped into what felt like a bottomless pit, and her heart turned icy and hard.

Whoever’s doing this is really despicable, dirty, and absolutely disgusting!

“Naomi, you can’t stay here anymore,” Ashlyn said before she called Harrison and Anderson. When they picked up, she said, “Get me a condominium that is close to the movie studio. I’m okay with two or three bedrooms as long as it’s available for sale and immediate move-in. Hurry.”

“Boss, why are you looking for a place?” Harrison asked in a lazy voice.

“Quit asking. Just do what I tell you to do. Look for Jared if you don’t have enough money,” she replied before she hung up.

Naomi was terrified. Her color drained from her face when she looked at the scary items in front of her.

She couldn’t imagine what would become of her if she hadn’t noticed the embroidery needle in her towel.

“Ashlyn, Lucas found out that it was Helena who drugged me the other day. Do you think she’s behind this too?”

Her heart felt cold from the fear.

Just how much does she hate me, and how vicious is she to do such a thing?

Ashlyn looked at Naomi’s face and saw that the swelling had reduced to a faint scar. “We don’t have any proof for now, so it’s only a guess. Try to calm down.”

“Ashlyn, I really think it’s her because she drugged me and even fought with me in the restroom. I think she’s incapable of this if she’s bad enough to put something in my drink,” Naomi insisted out of frustration.

“Are you hurt?” Ashlyn asked as she examined Naomi and saw the beads of blood on her arm. Then, she continued, “I don’t think it’s poisonous. But if it is, then…”

Fortunately, Naomi had a first aid kit in her room. Ashlyn opened it and grabbed some gauze from it.

After that, she cleaned Naomi’s wounds. Fortunately, it was a small wound that wasn’t very visible.

Besides, it had stopped bleeding.

“It’s just a little wound with two to three nicks, so you’ll be okay.”

Naomi looked at her gratefully before she lowered her gaze. “Thanks, Ashlyn. I’m sorry for my ignorance and for what I’ve done in the past. I’m truly sorry.”

Ashlyn smiled. “You’ve changed a lot compared to before. I’ll let you know once your new place is ready. You don’t have to stay here anymore.”

It was a refreshing experience for Naomi to have a wealthy sister-in-law who could just buy her a place whenever she wanted to.

Although Naomi was the daughter of the Nolan family, she mostly got her allowance from Lucas.

However, ever since she left home and decided to depend on herself, she didn’t have much money on her because she didn’t take anything from her family.

She was hoping for the movie to be a hit so that she could be paid handsomely.

As she was a rookie, she wouldn’t earn too much from the movie.

Besides, the person in charge had already paid the first half of her payment to her, and the rest of it would be paid after she finished filming.

Therefore, she didn’t have much money.

Recently, she had really fallen in love with performing after she acted on the set and experienced the different lives of different characters. It was something that only the one experiencing it could understand.

For Naomi, such experiences weren’t only interesting and fresh, they were more like having a deeper perception of life.

After this movie ended, she wanted to continue acting and try out different characters.

The Nolan family may be rich, but if I have my own career and live out my worth, I’m sure it’ll feel even better! I want to be like Ashlyn. I wish to live out my life with my own worth.

She recalled the time she spent with her rich friends. Back then, all she did was only have tea, go on shopping sprees, talk about beauty products, and gossip about male celebrities.

What’s the point of that? It’s shallow and a waste of time!

The more she thought about it, the more Naomi thought that Ashlyn was her beacon in life that brought her back to living out her life meaningfully.

Without thinking, she reached out and hugged Ashlyn. “Ashlyn, I love you!”

Ashlyn was shocked at what Naomi did. She felt uncomfortable with how Naomi was hugging her, and it was reflected on her face.

“Why are you being so chummy all of a sudden?”

She pushed Naomi away and said, “Let’s go out! I’ll get you something delicious.”
