A Love Trap

Ashley leaned over to Andrew and whispered in his ear, "Please try to put up with it, okay? I'll make it up to you when we get back home."

Andrew's eyes lit up at her words. He glanced at the seat and then sat down without batting an eye.

Ashley shook her head helplessly and sighed.

'I'd better be more careful the next time that I accept an invitation from someone. I need to make sure that Andrew feels comfortable with it, as well.'

Lena watched as Andrew and Ashley whispered intimately in each other's ear. She clenched her teeth with hatred and jealousy.

But she swore to herself that it would all change. She would soon be the one standing in Ashley's place. She would be the heroine of this story.

Ashley would lose her reputation, and Lena would replace her.

With that thought in mind, she felt much better. Lena said gently, "The love between you two is very touching."

Ashley smiled and said nothing.

"Ashley, please order whatever you like, and you don't have to be modest."

Ashley picked up the menu and glanced at the prices. It was a high-end Chinese restaurant, and the food on the menu was quite expensive.

The waiter stood patiently on the side, waiting to take their orders.

As Ashley read the menu, she had a glimpse of Lena. She noticed that Lena couldn't take her eyes off Andrew the whole time. Ashley gave a little snort and thought, 'Well, since the Mu family didn't lack money, then I'll order the most expensive dishes.'

So she flipped through the menu and picked the dishes with a three-digit price tag. "Well, I'll have the Thai flavor fish with lotus fragrance, ribbon fish with soy sauce and garlic, crispy skin pepper gadus, chicken with tremella in cucumber..."

Ashley wasn't paying much attention to the food. She was just ordering the dishes that had the highest prices.

'Since she was the one that asked us out, I'll make her pay dearly for it. I'm not going to make things too easy for her.'

ordering, she closed the big and elaborate menu. Smiling sweetly, she said, "All right. That's all." Then she handed the menu back to the waiter.
