A Love Trap Chapter 70 Acting Charming

Ashley and Ellie were both exhausted. After they had spent the whole morning walking around and
looking at all of the animals in the zoo, they collapsed in a heap at the table and after they had some
lunch and a nice long rest they felt much better. Greyson then stood up and led the girls to another
destination.

As the girls plodded along beside him, they found that the street they were in had become busier and
was bustling with people everywhere. They wondered why Greyson had brought them here.

Suddenly he smiled and stopped in front of a vacant shop and the girls looked at each other confused.

"Why have you brought us here?" Ashley asked as she looked at the shop. The shop front was much
better than any of the ones that they had looked at, and the location couldn't have been better.

Ellie had roughly mentioned that they wanted to rent a place to start a bakery shop to Greyson
yesterday, but she didn't share any more details. So she stood gaping in surprise at the shop front.

"Ashley, have you forgotten what I am capable of?" Greyson said giving her a wink when he noticed the
surprised look on Ashley's face.

Ellie felt so relieved that Greyson didn't mention the conversation they had to Ashley.

Ashley knew exactly what Greyson was capable of. It was easy for him to find out whatever he wanted
to know.

Ashley crossed her arms and looked at Greyson and said, "Of course I know what you are capable of.
But I just don't understand why you have brought us here."

Greyson's cheeks blushed and he answered shyly, "I'm just trying to repay you for what you did for me.



If it hadn't been for your kindness, I would have been starved to death and wouldn't have been able to
find my relatives in such a short time."

When Ashley heard what he said, she rubbed her forehead awkwardly and replied, "It wasn't a big
deal. There's no need for you to repay me for that."

Greyson was silent and stared at her expectantly.

It seemed as if he wasn't going to stop staring at her until Ashley had accepted his offer.

Ellie glanced at Greyson and then at Ashley. She knew what Greyson did was out of good intentions.
But she also knew her friend was having trouble accepting the offer because she was afraid of getting
him into trouble.

She couldn't bear to look at Greyson's pleading adorable eyes any longer, so she quickly approached
Ashley. "Ashley, what Greyson is doing is out of the goodwill of his heart and since we are already
here, why don't we have a look inside?"

After hearing what she had said, Ashley turned around and glared at her and said in a hushed voice,
"Greyson doesn't know the relationship that I have with my family, so I don't blame him for what he has
done. But you are well aware of the situation, so why would you still try to persuade me?"

Ellie didn't dare say anything else after that.

Ashley looked up at Greyson again and saw the disappointed look on his face and decided that it
wouldn't hurt to go inside and have a look.

Once they went inside, a man came to greet them. The man was in his forties and looked a little
anxious. He scuttled over to them the moment he saw Greyson and gave him a submissive look.

"Good afternoon, Mr..."



The man began to greet Greyson, but he stopped immediately when he saw Greyson glaring at him.

Greyson had called this man last night and asked him to find a nice vacant shop for a bakery business.
The middle-aged man had searched all night long to find a suitable place and was waiting at the shop
for them to arrive since early this morning.

"Ashley, Ellie, this is the place that I found for you. What do you think of it?"

Greyson couldn't wait to brag about how he found the shop for them, taking all the credit for himself.

After making eyecontact with Greyson, the middle-aged man gave him a slight nod and turned his
attention to the two girls.

Although he had no idea of the background of the two girls, he assumed that they must be highborn
since they were friends of Greyson and he was treating them so well.

"Hello, Miss Mu and Miss Su. I am the owner of the shop, please feel free to have a look around and if
there is anything that you dislike, I can make any necessary changes for you," the man said to both the
girls.

Ashley and Ellie looked at each other and furrowed their brows confused. They both wondered, 'Why is
this shop owner being so courteous to us?

Forget it. Maybe we're just overthinking it.'

Without giving it much more thought, they began to look around the shop. There was no doubt that
Greyson did have great taste. The layout, the arrangement, the lighting and even the location of the
shop were much better than the shops they found before.

This shop couldn't possibly be compared to all the other shops that Ashley and Ellie had looked at.
Because this shop was in a prime location, right in the heart of J City. It couldn't be more perfect, the



shop interior was the right size with the lovely classy decor and the location had heavy foot traffic.

'How on earth could Greyson find such a place?' they wondered. However, even though everything was
perfect, it didn't look like a place that the girls could afford.

"So, Ashley and Ellie. What do you think?"

Greyson asked, with curiosity.

Ashley looked at Greyson and nodded her head approvingly. "It's great! All right, now that we've had a
good look, let's go."

Ashley had no intention of renting the shop from the very beginning. All that she promised was to have
a look inside and nothing more.

The man turned pale when he heard that Ashley was about to leave. Greyson had entrusted him to find
the best possible place for the girls and this was the one that he came up with after hours of
painstakingly trying. But now that one of the girls had seemed dissatisfied with the shop, that also
reflected on his inability to find the best shop available.

The man firmly believed that these two girls must be highborn since they were Greyson's friends. So he
had to try harder to please them.

"Miss Mu and Miss Su, please wait, could you please tell me what it is that you are unsatisfied with. I
promise you that I will make the necessary corrections as soon as possible." The man said, trying to
convince them not to leave.

Ashley waved her hand as if to brush him off. "No, there's nothing wrong with the shop at all. It's just
that we didn't plan on renting it right away."



She became even more confused when she saw the reaction of this man. 'Why is he so determined to
lease this shop to us?' she wondered.

When he realized that he couldn't convince them to stay, the man had no choice but to turn to Greyson
for help.

However, Greyson avoided his eye contact and gazed at Ashley instead.

"Ashley, why don't you lease this shop? If it's not good enough for you, I could find you another one."
Greyson asked, pathetically.

"No, this shop is great." Ashley replied, helplessly. She couldn't mention the real reason why she didn't
want to rent the shop. How could she tell him that she had a terrible relationship with her family and
they were feuding at the moment? If she accepted his help, it would only cause him trouble from her
family.

"All right, let's go now." Ashley said to Ellie and Greyson. Then Ashley turned to the man and said, "I
am sorry for wasting your time."

Ellie watched Ashley leave the shop and gave Greyson a helpless shrug of her shoulders. She then
followed her out.

After they left, the middle-aged man turned to Greyson with a worried look and whispered, "Sir..."

Greyson frowned and impatiently interrupted, "Just hold the shop, for now, I'll persuade them to rent it."

He was about to leave but suddenly thought of something and turned back to the man saying, "Draw
up a contract and make the monthly rental fee about five thousand."

Greyson then left without giving the man a chance to say anything, instead, he stood in the doorway
with a confused expression on his face.



He watched as Greyson and the girls walked off into the distance and wondered why Greyson had
asked him to do that.
