A Love Trap Chapter 80 Trouble Was Coming

The two pastry chefs, who had previously worked for Harkim, were hired by Greyson with high pay. The
cakes they baked were much better, and lighter, than those made by ordinary chefs.

After all, Harkim only catered to high-born people from the upper class of society. Anyone working here
had to possess extraordinary skills, otherwise they would never be allowed to work here.

Unsurprisingly, looking at Ashley's fine figure, that customer had no doubt that she was telling the truth.
Moreover, no one could resist such a delicious cake.

…

Although running a bakery was a first for Ashley and Ellie and they didn't know much about the trade,
they were smart enough to pick up on the job. They managed the bakery pretty well and even improved
business.

Ashley enjoyed her new life so much. Although ordinary, she felt so fulfilled at the end of the day.

However, God knew that she would never lead an ordinary life.

While Ashley was in seventh heaven, Andrew was suffering on his business trip far away from home.

Even Johnny could see that he was in a terrible mood on this trip, as he had ordered his staff to finish a
task, which would have ordinarily taken seven days, within three days.

A seven-day task to be completed in three days!

Three days!

Not four days or five days but three days. How could that even happen?!



This was not the first time that Andrew had worked crazy hours, but Johnny could not figure out what
had happened to him on this trip. It was clearly not necessary for him to work so hard right now.

"Sir, these are the materials for tomorrow's contract meeting." Johnny knocked on the door and
stepped into Andrew's hotel room with a pile of folders in his hands. Johnny's dark circles were proof
that he must have stayed up late last night.

However, Andrew was more exhausted than his staff. His weariness was evident in his haggard
appearance.

"Just put them on the desk," he commanded. Staring straight at the computer screen in front of him,
Andrew spoke in a low but harsh tone.

Johnny did as he was told and stopped to take a look at his boss who was still busy working. Before he
could stop himself, he said, "Sir, you have already been working day and night, please get some rest.
We have plenty of time for that anyway."

Andrew ignored Johnny's suggestion, and instead focused at the computer screen. Thinking he was
not going to respond, Johnny turned to leave, but Andrew looked at him and said, "Book a flight ticket
back to J City for tomorrow as soon as possible. I am heading back when everything is done here."

Johnny was stunned by Andrew's request. 'It's not good for you to work this hard.' Johnny thought to
himself, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. He simply nodded his head and exited the room.

After Johnny left, Andrew switched back to the previous screen.

All the complicated official documents and files vanished, and hundreds of pictures popped up, almost
filling up the entire computer screen. All the pictures were of just one smiling lady with two attractive
dimples.



Some of the pictures were taken when the lady was snoozing, with her hands holding her little head,
while others were taken when she was fully absorbed in the task of making cakes, and a few more
were taken when she was secretly eating those cakes like a little hamster.

The lady shown in the pictures was no other than Ashley, the woman with whom Andrew had fallen so
deeply in love.

Looking at her, Andrew's harsh demeanor melted and he softened a bit. But the big smile on her face
made him just a little upset.

It looked like she didn't miss him at all.

He, however, couldn't wait to fly back to her and hold her tight. A few days without her seemed like an
eternity to him.

The prospect of getting back to her pushed him to wind up his one-week business trip in just three
days.

The thought of being with her tomorrow filled him with renewed energy, and he got back to work
immediately.

Meanwhile, back home Ashley had no idea that trouble was brewing.

The bakery was running very well, so Ashley and Ellie would sometimes hang out at the shop to help
out. They couldn't believe that they had already earned back all their investment in just a few days.

However, the owners of the bakery next door were jealous of their successful venture.

Apparently, if it hadn't been for Greyson, the middle-aged man would have opened a coffee shop in this
place, which wouldn't be a threat to the bakery next door.



But now because of Greyson's request, the man had to rent out this shop to Ashley, who started a
bakery instead, which created serious competition for the bakery next door.

Before Ashley and Ellie came along, the bakery next door was the only one in this area, and therefore,
also very popular.

The owners of that bakery were a young couple. Looking at them, it was plain to see that they had
earned good money here. Otherwise, they wouldn't wear such expensive clothes.

But ever since Ashley and Ellie arrived on the scene and opened their new bakery, customers had a
second option. They would naturally compare the two bakeries before purchasing the goodies.

Once they compared the offerings from both establishments, the decision was simple.

It was obvious that the pastries at "Memory Bakery" were so delicate and delicious that people would
choose them over the other bakery. More importantly, there was no risk of putting on weight even if
they indulged in the sweet treats a lot. This was why people chose their bakery over the one next door.

Moreover, the pastry chefs that Greyson had hired for them were incomparable to the common chefs
working at their competitor's shop.

The young couple envied Ashley and Ellie and taunted them every time they saw the girls. But it didn't
bother them too much, as they knew this was inevitable in business.

However, the more tolerant they were, the worse the couple's behaviour became towards them as they
regarded them as nothing but pushovers. Things got even worse.

One day, while Ashley and Ellie were heading to work, they found a large crowd gathered in front of
their bakery. There was a lot of hubbub among the crowd, and the chefs and the waitresses were
standing outside too.



Looking at each other in confusion, Ashley and Ellie immediately rushed towards the crowd.

Seeing them coming, someone in the crowd started to yell, "Look, there come the owners of the
bakery. Finally they are here."

Ashley and Ellie frowned as they sensed some hostility.

Ashley ran to the crowd quickly and said, "Please move aside."

People stepped backwards as they saw Ashley coming.

"Cheryl, what happened?"

When Ashley finally cleaved her way through the crowd, she saw someone lying on the floor with two
people squatting down beside the person and weeping.

A baffled Ashley found Cheryl standing in the crowd and asked her what was the matter.
