A Love Trap

Chapter 143 The Banquet

"Don't worry. Everything is ok." Andrew soothed Ashley in a low and gentle voice while holding her.

They arrived at the villa, and Josef parked the car outside. Andrew then carefully carried Ashley out of the vehicle.

Turning around, Josef happened to catch a glimpse of Ashley's lovely and adorable face.

However, before he got the chance to have a proper look, his view had been blocked by Andrew. When Josef looked up, he saw the angry cold glare from Andrew.

Josef froze with fear, "B...boss, I will leave now..."

Andrew then withdrew his eyes with satisfaction and carried Ashley into the villa.

When Claire noticed Andrew entering, she immediately came to greet them warmly. "Mr. Lu..."

She stopped mid-sentence when she saw the cold glance and frown on Andrew's face. He didn't want Ashley to be woken up, and he continued to carry her upstairs.

Once he reached the bedroom, he gently laid Ashley onto the bed. Andrew was about to go to the bathroom to have a shower when he noticed Ashley had clenched her fists. Then she reached out her hands, grabbed hold of his clothes tightly and

huddled beside him with a frown on her sweet face.

Andrew felt a pang of remorse when he saw her cowering in fear even in her sleep.

He didn't expect that she would be so afraid of seeing that film. Had he known that it would affect her so much, he would have chosen another movie for her to watch. He blamed himself for being so inconsiderate.

Perhaps it was out of fear that Ashley was particularly clingy tonight. But Andrew could not leave her alone.

Andrew could have removed her hands and gone about his own business. However, he felt responsible for her fear and didn't have the heart to leave her alone in that state.

The next morning when the sun shone brightly into the bedroom, Ashley slowly opened her eyes. The first thing that came into her view was a broad, tanned chest.

At first, she didn't realize that her head was resting on Andrew's chest, and she blinked in confusion.

Her long eyelashes were just like two small fans sweeping across Andrew's skin, which tickled him terribly.
