A Love Trap Chapter 44 They Looked Like A Good Match

"What? The woman in the photo isn't you?" he said abruptly.

Ashley nodded while she gave him a blank look.

Leo just came back from abroad and Peggy was his aunt.

Peggy had promised him earlier that she would introduce him to a beautiful woman. But the one he
saw standing before him was far from beautiful. She was even dressed in embarrassingly ugly clothes.
Obviously, she had very poor taste in clothing.

Even though Peggy was Leo's aunt, they weren't related by blood. Peggy was an orphan who had
been adopted and brought up by Leo's family members.

She didn't have a high status while she lived in the Su family but despite that, the Su family never
treated her badly.

However, when Peggy met Spencer and became his wife, she became a noble and wealthy woman.
She enjoyed the high status and was envied by many people.

The Su family had always been kind to Peggy and never treated her badly. So when the time came,
one of their family members was in need of help, and Peggy stepped in. She didn't forget the Su family
and helped Leo have the chance to study abroad and receive his doctor's degree.

When Ashley waltzed into the coffee shop dressed the way she was, everyone gawked at her.
However, now that Leo had raised his voice he had become the focus of the people's attention as well
as Ashley.

In fact, since Ashley was dressed so badly and Leo was so ugly, they looked like a good match for
each other.



Leo began to sulk and pulled a long face.

Peggy assured him that he would be going on a blind date with a very attractive and beautiful woman
today and he was really looking forward to it. However, to his surprise, the woman standing before him
wasn't pretty nor charming at all.

She reminded him of an unsophisticated and uneducated country bumpkin. The clothes that she was
wearing indeed made her look so ugly. And the large pair of black framed glasses that nearly covered
her whole face, made her look ridiculous. He wondered if she might be half blind as well as ugly.

Leo was so angry, that he was about to stand up and leave.

However, before he got the chance to, Ashley said, "Hey, are you Mr. Su? Hi. I'm Ashley Mu."

Ashley then deliberately paused for a moment, pretending to be bashful, and then added in a softer
voice, "My name is Ashley Mu. I'm your blind date.

Mrs. Mu told me that you have just come back from studying abroad and that you received your
doctor's degree. Now you're working as the vice president of a hospital. You are really amazing!"
Ashley fluttered her long eyelashes and looked at Leo with admiration when she spoke.

Leo was about to leave. But he stopped when he heard what Ashley had said.

He was such an egotistical man that he just couldn't resist staying on to feed his ego some more. In
general, every vainglorious man would be smug after he heard someone make such complimentary
remarks.

And Leo was such a vain man. So once Ashley had finished speaking, he started to be a little friendlier
to her even if he was disgusted by her appearance.



Ashley knew what kind of man she was dealing with and when she noticed that he was being nicer to
her and less annoyed with her, she couldn't help but feel amused and sneer inside at him.

She couldn't let Leo go so soon. Otherwise, if Peggy found out, she would know that Ashley did
something to sabotage the blind date.

"Err... I indeed just came back from abroad after graduation, having the doctor's degree," Leo said in an
arrogant voice, raising his chin a bit.

"Mr. Su, please have a seat. We can stay here and have a chat. After all, we have plenty of time,"
Ashley remarked.

Leo stared at Ashley with disgust. His narrowed eyes were almost closed. In addition, his expression of
complete disdain made his face even uglier.

Leo finally sat back down, and he thought at least she was good at giving compliments even if she
didn't look beautiful, and he was satisfied with that.

Ashley knew that if she came dressed like she normally would he would most likely want to start a
relationship with her. That was the reason why Ashley dressed the way she did. She didn't want to get
married yet and wanted to put him off with her appearance.

It was fortunate, for Leo, that Ashley had no idea what he was thinking. Otherwise, if she did, she
would probably have spat the coffee out into his face.

She would never allow such an ugly man to treat her with disdain.

Actually, instead of being that kind of refined gentleman, Leo was just a playboy who liked chasing
women. After he sat there for a short while, he began to glance around.



Ashley deliberately kept flattering Leo to prolong their time together. That way Peggy couldn't criticize
and blame her for anything. She came to the blind date on time and she had been chatting with Leo for
a long time.

"Mr. Su, what are the requirements for the woman that you would want to be in a relationship with or to
marry?" Ashley asked, pretending to look at Leo affectionately with her big eyes underneath the large
glasses.

Leo's eyes were glued to a pretty woman who sat nearby, so he wasn't paying too much attention to
Ashley.

"Well, my demand isn't very high. I hope the one who will become my better half is beautiful, with fair
skin and a charming figure. I would be satisfied if she looks as attractive as that woman..."

Ashley followed the direction of Leo's gaze and noticed the woman that was sitting at a table close by.

The woman was dressed in a sexy red sheath dress which showed off her curvaceous figure. She wore
heavy makeup, with a curly perm.

Her beauty and charm was undeniable. Otherwise, Leo would never let his lustful glances linger on her
for so long.

"Oh, I see. By the way, Mr. Su, what do you think of me?" Ashley asked coyly.

Just then the woman who was sitting near Leo stood up and left, and Leo's gaze followed her all the
way out the door. Once she was gone, Leo unwillingly averted his eyes from her. He felt a little
disappointed that she didn't stay longer.

Leo then turned his head to Ashley and responded to her question.



"You?" Leo looked at Ashley with disgust.

He would not be willing to sit here with her if she didn't say those nice words to praise him and gratify
his vanity.

Now he began to wonder if Ashley had fallen in love with him.

After all in his eyes, he thought himself as an elegant young man with a charming and handsome
appearance. So it was understandable for many women to have a crush on him.

He thought that he was so good-looking that a lot of women were infatuated with him, which made him
even prouder and smugger.

Leo kept thinking about that with confidence.

After casting a glance at Leo's expression, Ashley quickly guessed what was on Leo's mind.

She believed that he might surely think that she took a fancy to him.

As expected, Leo immediately spoke, "Although you might like me as I'm handsome, you're not my
type really. I won't start a relationship with you, so don't think about that anymore," Leo said arrogantly.

Ashley was speechless with surprise upon hearing him. She hadn't even shown him any sign of being
attracted to him or said that she liked him.

How could he be so narcissistic that he even thought that she had a crush on him? His excessive
vanity really disgusted Ashley.

...

Ashley didn't know that when she was chatting with Leo, someone had been watching their every move
and expression that they made.



A man on the second floor stared straight at them and his glances at Leo, who sat opposite Ashley,
were sullen and cold. If the man's gaze could kill, Leo might surely be killed by it many times over.

Leo somehow felt a bit uneasy and trembled, seeming to realize something all of a sudden.

After looking at his watch, he was surprised to find that he had been talking with Ashley for almost an
hour.

As far as Leo was concerned, sitting together with such a woman like Ashley was just an insult to him.
With this in mind, Leo adjusted his clothes, about to leave.
