A Love Trap

Fabio and Richard turned back and found Andrew and Ashley, their silhouettes were like a dark painting against the wall.

In Andrew's arms as she was, Ashley's body still trembled in fear.

Hurriedly, Ashley's two kids ran to her with anxiety on their faces. "Daddy, what's wrong with Mommy? Is she sick?" Fabio asked with concern.

Richard stood beside him, silent as usual, but his worried eyes were fixed on Ashley.

Andrew felt Ashley's body stiffen for a moment. It made him smile to himself.

Perhaps Ashley did not want her children to know that she was scared out of her wits.

"No, nothing's wrong. Your mommy is just tired. You two just follow closely behind me and don't run around, okay?"

"Okay, got it."

"All right."

Andrew carried Ashley and walked out of the haunted house and the amusement park with Richard and Fabio walking right behind him.

As Richard and Fabio got into the car, Ashley, who was pretending to be asleep in Andrew's arms, suddenly "woke up".

Her face was still ashen. She glared at Andrew and struggled out of his grip.

She had overestimated herself back there. They were already out of the haunted house, but she could still feel all the hair on her body standing on end. Apparently, she was unable to muster enough energy now to find her footing once again.

Before Ashley could step forward, she lost her balance and stumbled.

Even Ashley herself did not expect this to happen.

'Why are my legs so feeble?

I can't believe I've gotten too weak to stand on my own!'

She was still confused about her physical condition when she heard a chuckle from Andrew who was standing next to her. She only cast a dagger-like look at him.

"Help me get into the car."

She opened her arms as she snapped.

Annoyed and in a sour mood as she was, she was very cute in Andrew's eyes.

Andrew said nothing and carried Ashley into the car obediently.
