A Love Trap

To get his mind off the scent and consequently make himself feel better, he thought of Ashley.

Ashley had stayed in the home office as she had finally come up with a design for the necklace.

The design she had just drawn looked really good even on paper. The necklace had a heart-shaped pendant with a hollowed-out middle. She left it empty so any couple could put their names or whatever they wanted on it. Diamonds surrounded the heart, which was the perfect touch.

Ashley didn't know how she was able to design such a beautiful necklace. All she knew was that she had Andrew on her mind the entire time she was drawing the necklace.

Ashley stretched her arms. It was half past ten. She didn't know if Andrew was home already.

She packed all her stuff and left the home office.

She made her way to the bedroom and bumped into Andrew who was seemed to have just gotten back.

After he threw his jacket away, he only had his white undershirt on. The sleeves had been rolled up showing off his nice arms.

Ashley had never seen Andrew like this because he was always well dressed no matter what the occasion. Even when going to sleep, he was still dressed nicely. This was how Ashley knew something was wrong.

Ashley was sure that something had happened to him.

Clutching her design book, she hurried over to him and asked, "What happened? Where's your jacket?"

"I lost it," he simply replied.

Ashley's mouth twisted. She wasn't satisfied with his answer.

She wanted to know more.

She wondered how he lost his jacket.

However, she didn't press any further. She just tried to hold his hand like she normally would, but she was surprised that Andrew moved his hand away in response.

Ashley felt even more strange. She asked, "What's wrong?"
