A Love Trap

Chapter 37 An Unexpected Visitor

That evening, Ellie was making dinner as Ashley helped her in the kitchen. All of a sudden, they heard someone ring the bell.

"Ashley, you take this one."

"Got it," Ashley said as she washed her hands.

'I didn't expect we have company, ' she thought, confounded.

Confused as she was, she came out of the kitchen and opened the door.

The moment she caught sight of her visitor, her face darkened with displeasure.

Before she could close the door, Lena put her hands on the knob, her eyes staring at Ashley with blazing hatred.

The two girls glowered at each other, neither of them uttering a single word.

"Who is it, Ashley?" Ellie called from the kitchen when she didn't hear any voices speaking.

When Ashley turned around, Lena hastily sneaked into the house. "Hello, Ellie," Lena greeted.

Ashley closed the door, and walked to Lena's side. "What are you doing here?" Ashley asked coldly.

She was displeased to see Lena because of what had happened last night.

On top of that, they couldn't stand each other ever since they were only little girls.

"Nothing important," Lena replied leisurely as she stroked her long hair.

"I came here to inform you that I disapprove your resignations. So you'll have to continue to work in the Luo Group tomorrow. Although you didn't go to work today, I won't cut your salary. You can thank me later," Lena said calmly.

But deep inside, she was seething with anger.

The sight of Ashley reminded Lena of what had happened between her and Mr. Chen.
