A Love Trap

Cheryl rushed out when Ashley said yes.

"Are you okay? That wound on your hand doesn't look good," Nina walked up to Ashley and asked her, frowning a little. Ashley could see that Nina was worried about her, even though she was mostly expressionless.

Ashley smiled and said, "I'm okay. Watch this for me. I'll be back in a minute."

During the renovation of the shop, Greyson had suggested that a small room be added so that people could take rest. Ashley considered Greyson to be a genius for having come up with such a good idea.

It was a good thing that Greyson didn't hear Ashley calling him a genius, or he would become awkward. His intention behind suggesting the building of the room was selfish. He had thought that he could use that room to play whenever he came.

But Ashley seemed to have misunderstood.

Cheryl soon returned with a bottle of Ibuprofen. "Here, Ashley. This will help with your wound," she said.

"Thanks a lot, Cheryl," Ashley said, taking the medication from her.

"Well, you need some rest. So I'm off," Cheryl said.

Ashley smiled and nodded.

After Cheryl left, Ashley squeezed a little ointment on to her fingers and applied it to the wound.

She rubbed on it lightly, which caused a pricking on it that made her cry out. "Ouch!" Ashley thought wistfully, 'How could Raymond be so ruthless to me? It fucking hurts.'

At the same time, she somehow felt pity for him, for being cheated and controlled by that bitch Lena.
