A Love Trap

No matter who knew that his woman was that kind of person, he wouldn't react that way.

But Lena didn't know that Andrew wasn't just an average man.

Especially when the woman concerned was Ashley.

Lena kept her head down and racked her brains, trying to think of some more effective ways to badmouth Ashley and smear her image.

Meanwhile, a pair of icy eyes were boring into her. Those eyes were like the eyes of a viper, which crept people out when they saw them.

Then Lena heard a horrible voice that would scare her for the rest of her life whenever she recalled it.

It was cold and menacing as if it came from the icy depths of the North Pole.

"If I hear you say one more word against Ashley, you will no longer exist in this world!"

After saying that, he didn't give her a second glance. He just stood up and left.

Lena stayed glued to the same spot. She was left reeling from what he said and stared at his back, petrified. It took her a few moments to compose herself.

It was only once Andrew had left the room that Lena allowed herself to relax. She released the air that she held in her lungs and squatted down abruptly, panting to catch her breath.

'That man is horrible!

His eyes could kill a person by cutting them up piece by piece.'

But on the flip side, when she thought about how gently and sweetly Andrew treated Ashley, jealousy ate away at her.

'Why? How did she earn his love?

I just spoke to him nicely for a few minutes, and he acted that way.

I won't admit defeat and give up!'
