A Love Trap

'I probably need to handle this. This is Miss Mu we're talking about, ' Johnny thought to himself.

"Okay. Then you can proceed as I've instructed," Johnny said.

As Johnny spoke, two people came in to escort Sylvia out. Sylvia must've been so preoccupied that it didn't take much to get her out of the room.

Mr. Mao's face darkened upon seeing all of this.

He was at a loss for words. He used to think that Sylvia was a bright girl but she didn't seem so bright at that moment.

'How could she do that? Mr. Lu exposed her! How can I help her now?' Mr. Mao cried out in his heart.

At that moment, everyone in the conference room was exchanging glances and thinking about the exact same thing.

Everything happened so quickly. Suddenly, it was Andrew himself, the CEO of the Lu Group, dealing with the drama of the staff.

Even Kelly didn't expect this to happen.

However, Ashley was Johnny's cousin and Johnny was Andrew's trustworthy assistant. It seemed perfectly logical that Andrew would help Ashley.

Suddenly, Andrew stood up and said plainly, "The competition shall continue." Then he left with Johnny.

Everyone at the conference room watched them leave.

They still hadn't come to their senses long after Andrew had left.

'So, why did Mr. Lu come here in the first place?' they thought collectively.

Kelly was the one to break the silence. She looked around and immediately noticed that everyone was lost in thought. Then she said, "Well, best to let it go. The competition will continue in a while."

Kelly then looked towards the door where Andrew had just been and frowned to herself. 'What is Mr. Lu trying to prove or do?
