A Love Trap

Ashley's face turned red. She pushed Andrew's hand away and asked crossly, "How can I know what you want to do?"

She couldn't admit to him that she had evil thoughts swirling about in her head.

Andrew's words and actions had misled her.

"Really?" Andrew laughed in a low voice. He didn't say anything, but Ashley's face turned redder.

"Of course. Or what?" Ashley didn't admit defeat and countered him instead.

"I have recovered. I will go to work tomorrow," she stated firmly.

"Didn't you just say that you have wounds on your body?'' Andrew looked at the fully-recovered wound on her thigh, which had no scars left.

Ashley covered her legs with the quilt and replied, "I did, but now they are healed."

She had to inform him before going out because of what had happened in the past.

The day after she was injured, Ashley thought that since he was at work, Andrew wouldn't know if she went out.

However, just before she walked out, he had called to check on her. He warned her not to go out because of her wound.

But Ashley didn't listen to him. She mulled over her decision and eventually went out.

However, Andrew caught her on the way and took her back home.

She thought he had sent someone to spy on her again, but he proved it to her that he didn't do that. She had to go back home. Before this incident, she could walk around in the villa, but from then on, she was only allowed to stay in the bedroom.
