A Love Trap

Andrew looked straight into Ashley's eyes.

But what he didn't know was that Ashley was amused by the way he uttered Jeremy's name.

"What are you thinking about? I just saw this news accidentally. And since I know that you and Jeremy are best friends, I thought of asking you about it.

Are you jealous of him?" There was a trace of sarcasm in Ashley's tone.

"From now on, don't mention any other man's name except mine," Andrew ordered.

Ashley wondered if he was being too demanding.

"Okay," Ashley answered with a nod as if it was not a big deal at all.

"So, can you answer my question now?" she added.

"I don't know!" Andrew snapped.

Looking at the expression on Andrew's face, Ashley couldn't help but smile in amusement. "He is your best friend. How come you don't know?"

"Is there a rule that you must know everything that's going on with your best friend?"

Andrew asked, looking sullen.

"Fine." Ashley didn't say anything more. They both stayed in the office quietly.

Recently, Chant had been visiting Clifford more frequently.

And since Clifford was always pissed off by his presence, they ended up arguing every time they'd meet.

Meanwhile, Dany still went to the kindergarten as usual. However, this time, a stricter bodyguard watched her closely.

Ashley wanted to get close to Dany. But every time she tried, the bodyguard would immediately stop her.

Actually, Ashley wasn't afraid of the bodyguard. She was just scared that if she offended Cayn, he would hide Dany from her forever.

So to divert her attention, Ashley helped Andrew in managing his company.

At times they would have a video conference together or deal with something outside the office.

Today, Ashley sat beside Andrew. They were both busy, so they didn't disturb each other.

Ashley read through the last document in her hand and signed it. After giving it to Alice, she stretched herself and yawned.

Finally, all work for the day was done. She smiled with relief.
