A Love Trap

Hearing Andrew's voice, a seed of hope sprung up in her heart.

Andrew had never seen Ashley look so desperate. For the first time, he sensed extreme terror in her eyes.

Not wanting to see her in this miserable state, he comforted her, "Don't worry, love. Fill me in with what happened. I am here."

At this moment, Andrew's bodyguards surrounded Cayn, not giving him a chance to leave.

The parking lot had now turned into a battlefield where neither Cayn nor Andrew would admit defeat.

Andrew's soothing voice relaxed her a bit. After organizing her thoughts, she mumbled, "Andy, I saw something." Seeing she needed a push, Andrew probed, "Tell me, what did you see?" He wrapped his arm around her shoulder, encouraging her to speak up. Finally, she explained, "While I was wiping the red wine from Dany's hair, I saw a mole on her left ear. Our daughter, Tangyuan, had exactly the same mark. In fact, Fabio has got one near his right ear. What does it say? Don't you think it means this little girl is our child?"

Ashley looked straight into Andrew's eyes. She wanted him to believe her. Pulling his sleeve tightly, she implored for his trust.

Her gaze now shifted to the little girl in Cayn's arms.

Dany just blinked her eyes, not understanding what was going on.

She was smarter than other kids of her age, but what was happening was too complicated for her to comprehend.

However, there was one line that caught Dany's attention. Ashley had referred to her as her daughter.

'Really?

Could she be my mother?

Am I going to have a Mommy?' she wondered, unable to hide her delight. If there was one thing she desired, it was to have a loving mother.

"Okay, I understand,"

Andrew said, comforting Ashley in a soft voice. Then he fixed his eyes on Cayn.

"Mr. Mo, would you care to explain?"

Cayn just sneered, dodging Andrew's question. He seemed to be mocking Ashley for having such an absurd assumption.

"What is there to explain? Dany is my child. I brought her up. Perhaps she has a birthmark similar to the one your daughter had. But what does that prove? Nothing!

There are tens of millions of people in the world with the same birthmark. Don't use it as an excuse to take my baby away,"
