A Love Trap

All of a sudden, someone held Ashley from behind. Almost instantly, she was enveloped by a familiar scent.

With a smile on her lips, Ashley turned around. Sure enough, it was Andrew. "Where are we?"

'Can he stop taking me to different places when I'm sleeping?' Ashley quietly thought to herself. If he were to do this a few more times, Ashley was almost sure that she was going to have a heart attack even if she didn't have any heart disease.

"Next time, please don't scare me like this."

"You're scared?"

"What do you think?" Ashley raised her eyebrows and complained, "Place yourself in my shoes. If it had been you who were to wake up and found yourself in a completely different place, wouldn't you be frightened?"

Andrew wanted to respond that this kind of thing would not happen to him.

But when he saw the disappointed look on Ashley's face, Andrew immediately decided that he'd better admit his mistake.

Andrew gently placed his head on Ashley's shoulder and said in a very apologetic tone, "I was wrong, Ash. Please forgive me."

At that time, he didn't think too much about his decision. He just saw Ashley sleeping so soundly on the bed and didn't have the heart to wake her up. So he didn't have any other choice but to do what he did.

"Well, I didn't mean to blame you." Ashley held Andrew's hand.

She just wanted to tell him that she wouldn't like it if he were to do it again.

Andrew held Ashley's little finger and tenderly smiled.

"Are you hungry? I'll take you out for breakfast."

"Yeah, let's go." Ashley nodded at him.

At that moment, Andrew and Ashley were already back in J City, but they hadn't gone back to the Golden Palace.

They were staying in another one of Andrew's properties in the city.

Of course, a man of his stature had a lot of other houses.

Nonetheless, Andrew and Ashley had made the Golden Palace their place of residence all this time.

After breakfast, the two walked out of the restaurant together.

It was in the middle of December, so it was a little cold outside. People were dressed in thick layers of clothing to stay warm.

When Ashley came out of the restaurant, she immediately felt cold.

Noticing this, Andrew took off his coat and placed it on top of Ashley's shoulders. "Let's go."

"Take back your coat and put it on. I'm not that cold," Ashley said, trying to give the coat back to Andrew.

Without his outer jacket, Andrew was only wearing a suit as usual. He would freeze if he didn't take back his jacket.

"Don't take it off!" Andrew's voice was firm and somewhat intimidating.

Meanwhile, Ashley's hands were held by his. She immediately noticed that his hands were a little cold.
