A Love Trap Chapter 71 Please Accept It

If Greyson wanted this shop, he could have just told the owner. The middle-aged man wondered why
he went through so much trouble?

Suddenly Ashley and Ellie popped up in his head. Was Greyson doing all this for those two women?

"If so, I had better remember this so that I don't displease them in the future," he made a mental note.

Thinking about what Greyson said to him before leaving, the mid-aged man snapped out of his
musings and ordered his people to draw up a contract.

...

"Ashley, why are you looking so worried?" Ellie glanced at Ashley sitting there looking miserable and
felt helpless.

She never expected Ashley to get so mad about this. Greyson had only done this out of goodwill.

"It's nothing. I just don't want him to be involved in this," Ashley stated.

Lena didn't like her and was always trying to sabotage her plans. She did not want other people to
become collateral damage in this sibling war.

"But Greyson doesn't know that, so don't be mad at him, alright? Your grumpy face stinks!" Ellie
complained.

Ashley shot her a warning look.

"Ashley, did I do anything wrong?" asked Greyson looking sad.

Ellie looked at Greyson's face and then at Ashley's annoyed face. Greyson looked like he was close to
tears. She dragged him to her side, "No, you did nothing wrong. It's just that we don't want to trouble



you with this. Don't overthink it."

Ellie was fond of him and hated to see him look so desolate.

If Francis was here and saw everything that Greyson had done, he would be so pissed. He would be
calling him a little devil.

Francis recognised Greyson for the wolf in sheep skin that he was.

Though he had an outrageously adorable baby face, his actions were the exact opposite of that. The
little devil of J City.

Yes, that was right. Everyone in J City knew him by his nickname --the Little Devil Greyson!

In fact, all the love Greyson received from people was only because of his deceiving face. He was
totally different in front of Francis and their common friends!

On hearing Ellie's comforting words, he turned to Ellie with a gloomy look on his face, "Really? But
Ashley still looks really mad at me."

Technically Ashley was younger than Greyson, but he looked younger. So they treated him like their
younger brother.

"No, of course not, don't think about it too much." Ellie rubbed his head. She had wanted to do so for a
long time but hadn't found an opportunity, until now.

The minute Ellie's hands touched Greyson's head, his expression changed but he quickly corrected
himself and pretended as if it didn't bother him.

The one thing Greyson loathed was being touched on his head! But nobody knew this about him.

"Ashley." Greyson spoke her name pitifully.



She sighed, "I don't mean to blame you and I'm not mad. It's just that, I think you'd better stay out of
this. I don't want you to get into any trouble because of me."

"Ashley, is this about Lena Mu? Is it because of her that you can't rent a shop?" he asked.

"How do you know about that?" Ashley looked at him in surprise.

"I found out about it myself. With the help of my computer, of course." Greyson answered with a hint of
pride in his voice.

Ashley was speechless. She forgot that this innocent-looking boy was a hacker, and a good one at that.

She had wanted to hold back some things from him but it was so easy for him to find out these things
thanks to his skills.

"But don't worry, Ashley, she will not get what she wants."

"Why is that?" Ellie asked out of curiosity.

"Because this shop is under Harkim's name and its boss is very protective toward his belongings. No
one dares to mess with him.

And my uncle works for Harkim, so girls, please don't worry about this." Greyson said graciously.

"Ashley, please just accept this. Think of it as me returning your favour," he added, afraid that Ashley
would still decline his offer. Greyson looked at Ashley with hope shining in his innocent eyes.

"No!" Ashley refused without so much as a moment's consideration.

She had helped him back then because she was drawn by his beautiful eyes. And honestly, what she
had done for him was not a big deal. So how could she accept such a generous reward?



Ellie stood there looking at Ashley and sighed. It was amazing how a random act of kindness could
bind two people together forever.

"Ashley, Ellie, do you take me as your friend?" Greyson asked suddenly.

"Of course we do!" They answered immediately, almost in chorus.

If they didn't take Greyson as a friend, a brother, why would they be so close to him?

Greyson expected exactly this response and seized the chance to persuade them harder.

"Then it all works out! Friends are supposed to help each other," he proclaimed.

Greyson was serious and Ashley almost believed it.

"And, Ashley, this is not a gift. It's a reward for the bread and water you offered me last time," he
added.

Now there would be no reason for Ashley to say no.

"No, I did that as a simple gesture. We can't accept such a generous offer." Besides, Harkim was
involved in this and Greyson would surely get into trouble if they accepted his offer.

And Ashley feared those people the most.

"You obviously don't consider me your friend. Why else would you not accept this?" Greyson looked at
Ashley sadly as though he was hurt, and Ashley had bullied him.

Ashley felt helpless. On one hand, she knew that Greyson was doing this out of goodwill, but she just
couldn't accept his generosity.

No matter how hard he tried to convince her, she would not accept this shop from Greyson.



But he did everything he could, including begging, which finally made Ashley change her mind.

Then he stopped grovelling and dragged Ashley and Ellie back to the shop.
