A Love Trap Chapter 72 Signed The Contract

Ashley and Ellie followed Greyson. They noticed the sudden change in his facial expression and
couldn't help but have a feeling of being cheated.

However, since they had promised Greyson, then it didn't seem a good idea to go back on their word.

Greyson walked into the store again with Ashley and Ellie in tow. The same middle-aged man came to
greet them. Greyson gave him a questioning look as if to ask, 'Is the contract ready?' The man nodded
discreetly to Greyson.

Ashley and Ellie didn't feel the need to say anything because they had already seen this storefront
before and they were both satisfied with everything the way it was. The man handed the contract over
to the girls and they read through it carefully.

While Ashley and Ellie read through the details of the contract, the man wiped the sweat from his brow.
He was glad that he drew up the contract promptly after Greyson's instructions and now he sat back
feeling relieved.

However, the more Ashley and Ellie read through the contract, the more surprised they were.

They had rented stores in the past and also read some tenancy contracts, so they were familiar with
the usual requirements. But this contract was different from the usual ones that they had read before.

And given the location of this storefront, it was definitely worth anywhere between ten thousand and
twenty thousand dollars in rent of which the girls were prepared to pay.

However, the rent amount that was written in this contract was only five thousand per month. Ashley
and Ellie couldn't believe that he was asking for such a small amount.

What was more, the contract was supposed to be very strict and more in favor of the owner. However,
all of the terms in the contract were written up to be all in their benefit.



Ashley looked up at the owner and couldn't help but ask, "I'm sorry. I wonder if you may have made a
mistake when you drew up this contract?" When she read through all of the terms and conditions of the
contract it was obvious that the owner would suffer losses. And if that was the case, then what would
be the purpose of him leasing the store out in the first place?

The middle-aged man's eyes twinkled and he gave Ashley a friendly smile. He said, "You are funny,
Miss Mu. I am sure that there are no mistakes in this contract. It was specifically written up for you."

He drew the contract up under Greyson's instructions. However, the man personally thought that the
contract was a bit sloppy. He wanted to modify it again, but he ran out of time. And now there was no
way to modify it further.

If Greyson and the girls had arrived just a little bit later, the contract would have been slightly different,
and Ashley would have been even more surprised.

A thought had suddenly occurred to Ashley and she gave Greyson a suspicious look. She asked, "Is
this your idea?"

Greyson's uncle had strong ties with Harkim. The only person that Ashley could think of to be
responsible for this sort of contract was Greyson.

When Greyson noticed that Ashley was staring at him questionably, he gave her an innocent look and
nodded.

"Ashley, you have promised me that you would rent this shop. You can't go back on your promise now,"
Greyson said in haste. He was afraid that Ashley would change her mind and not sign the contract.

So before she had a chance to say something that he didn't want to hear, he quickly reminded her not
to go back on her word.



Ellie felt humored by the conversation between Ashley and Greyson. She then looked at her friend and
said, "Ash, it's okay. Just sign it."

"But, this contract..." What Ashley wanted to say was that? the owner was being way too generous.

How could she accept such a small rental amount? Let alone all of the terms that followed in the
contract. It was just too much. It was almost like a big gift to them.

Ashley was finding it really hard to accept and sign her name on it.

"Yes, Miss Mu. You can sign it," said the man, gently trying to persuade her to sign the contract, since
he knew that she was the one who would make the decision.

Ashley furrowed her brows and slowly looked at them from one face to another. They each had the
same expression written on their faces, and that was for her to sign the contract. She felt so guilty to
sign it.

And it felt strange that the owner of the shop complied with all of the conditions that were all in her
favor.

However, the man didn't know what Ashley was thinking. And he was under Greyson's instructions
about this contract and wouldn't complain at all. After all, his first thought was to give them the shop
free.

Ashley could feel all of their eager gazes on her. She couldn't bear it any longer and gave in to their will
by signing the contract.

Then both?Ashley and Ellie signed their names.

The deal was done. As they were leaving the storefront, Greyson handed the man a drawing with a
design and told the man to decorate the store as soon as possible with that design.



The man took the drawing and nodded.

...

This store would be Ashley and Ellie's from now on.

Their dream shop was on the way and the girls were very happy about it. They had rented a great store
in a fantastic location, but they also needed to hire some staffs. They still needed bakers and waiters.

Ashley and Ellie couldn't wait to start their business.

"Greyson, thank you so much for helping us out. We owe you a favor, big time! Come and have dinner
with us," Ashley said, smiling at him.

When he saw how happy Ashley was with him, Greyson's eyes sparkled with joy and he said with
excitement, "I'd love to. How about that hot pot restaurant that we went to last time? I think the food is
really good there."

Ever since Greyson had the Hot Pot meal, he couldn't get it out of his head. And when Ashley invited
him to dinner, he couldn't help but mention that place again.

Greyson loved the spicy taste and the great atmosphere at that restaurant.

When Ashley and Ellie saw the excitement in his eyes, they couldn't help but chuckle.

They had Greyson hooked on Hot Pot.

Then Ashley suddenly had an idea.

"We only go to the Hot Pot restaurant once in a while. If you want to eat Hot Pot, then let's go to the
supermarket. Let's buy the ingredients and make it ourselves at home, I bet it will taste even better,"



said Ashley.

The girls liked to eat Hot Pot as well. They had made it a few times at home. So, all they had to do was
go to the supermarket and buy the necessary ingredients for it.

And to Greyson, he seemed to know one more place, that was "supermarket".

"Cool. Let's go to the supermarket," he said after hearing that Ashley was going to cook Hot Pot for
them.

Ashley checked the time on her phone, which was 4 o'clock in the afternoon. It wasn't too late to shop
for the ingredients and then begin to make the Hot Pot.

Soon they all left and went to the supermarket closest to their home.

Once the trio entered the supermarket, they attracted a lot of attention from the other shoppers.
Watching the combination of a handsome boy and two pretty girls, people found themselves drawn to
admire them, especially Greyson.

When Greyson entered the supermarket, his eyes scanned everything around him like a radar. He was
so full of curiosity.

Ashley glanced at him and noticed that he was interested and curious in everything and asked, "Dear
Greyson, haven't you ever been to a supermarket before?"

Otherwise, why would he be looking at everything with so much interest?
