A Love Trap

Ashley was speechless. Was it as she had thought?

Johnny looked over at Ashley.

Judging by how his boss was looking right now, he thought that the decision-maker must definitely be his wife. If the boss's wife agreed to go back, the boss would go back. If the lady refused, the boss would stay here and wouldn't budge an inch.

Johnny couldn't say anything. What kind of a boss was he working for?

Johnny couldn't help but fix his eyes on Ashley and say rather firmly, "Miss Mu, please come back to J City with us. You were worried about Miss Su. Now you've seen that she is fine here, and there is nothing wrong."

Ashley looked at Ellie's tired face and then at Johnny. She had a headache.

She had just arrived in L City and hadn't yet met Ellie's grandpa and grandma. How could she leave like this?

Ashley turned to Andrew and said, "You go back first, OK? I have something to talk with Ellie and will come back tomorrow."

Andrew pursed his lips and replied, "Come back to J City with me."

Ashley pulled Andrew aside and said in a low voice, "Please go back first. You need to go to work tomorrow. I promise I will be back as soon as I can. OK?"

Ashley felt like she was comforting a child.

Andrew didn't answer, merely staring stubbornly at her.

"Andrew Lu, what the hell do you want me to do?" Ashley pleaded helplessly.

"Go back to J City with me."

Ashley had said everything to make him happy, but all in vain. It angered her to no end.

"Andrew Lu, don't get fresh with me! I have something to do here," she said, not bothering to conceal her irritation.
