A Love Trap Chapter 116 The Truth Is Revealed

However, Andrew was suffering in his heart.

Every day when they had dinner, he silently looked at Ashley's lovely face. He wanted to talk to her to
ease the tension between them, but he didn't know what to say.

Every morning when they went to work, he left before Ashley and waited in his car until she came out
of the house. Then, he would quietly watch her walk to catch the bus, and he would drive slowly to
follow her.

Every night, he was unable to sleep peacefully if Ashley was not sleeping by his side. Only when she
was asleep did he go into the bedroom and lie down next to her. And the next morning, he left when
she was about to wake up.

Andrew's sudden display of affection startled Ashley. She pushed him away and said, "What do you
want to do?" She cast a quick glance at Ellie uneasily. After making sure that Ellie hadn't noticed her
closeness with Andrew, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Not expecting Ashley to thrust him away, Andrew felt frustrated and angry. However, he remained silent
because he didn't want to provoke her. He just glared at her.

Ashley was embarrassed by Andrew's unwavering gaze, but she didn't know what to say because they
were still in a stand-off. She pressed her lips together and didn't say a word.

She was surprised that Andrew was able to find her so quickly this time. She suspected that he was
spying on her again.

Reading her expression, Andrew guessed what she was thinking. He said earnestly, "I'm not spying on
you, and I didn't do it the last time either. I just wanted to know what you had been doing lately, so I
sent Johnny to investigate that. I didn't mean to spy on you.



By the way, when I saw the pictures of you and Greyson having dinner and going to the supermarket
together the last time, I lashed out at you just because I was jealous of him. I didn't do it deliberately.
I'm sorry, Ash."

Andrew sincerely apologized, looking at her with innocent eyes.

Although he seemed calm on the surface, Andrew was very upset. His hands were clenched and he
could feel his palms sweating.

That morning, Andrew had overheard what Claire had said to Ashley. He thought she was right.

If two people were in a stand-off, one of them must give in first. One of the two must take the initiative
to compromise with the other.

Anyway, he fell in love with Ashley first. After some contemplation about what had happened that night,
he felt that he was indeed wrong.

He had asked Ashley, rather indiscreetly, about the nature of her relationship with Greyson. He knew
that Greyson was a hard nut to crack despite his innocent baby face. Andrew feared that she would be
deceived by the young man's appearance.

But there was one thing he didn't want to admit — he was afraid that Ashley might fall in love with
Greyson.

Upon hearing Andrew's apology, Ashley looked at him incredulously.

Although she hadn't spent much time with Andrew, she knew him to some extent.

He didn't seem like the kind of person who apologized easily to others.

'Has he gone mad today?' she wondered.



Ashley couldn't help but touch Andrew's forehead.

'He doesn't have a fever. In that case, he must be sane, ' she thought.

With a straight face, Andrew grabbed her hand tightly and tried to get close to her. He snorted in an
arrogant tone, "I will break your legs if you leave me again without saying a word!"

If she had heard him say that before, Ashley would have got frightened. But now, she felt that Andrew
was merely a paper tiger.

Reasoning that they were already married and that Andrew was a good guy in every way, Ashley's
anger dissipated. He was a good husband in her eyes.

Although she didn't lose her temper, she warned him, "You can't send someone to spy on me anymore.
If you want to know something, just ask me."

Then she couldn't help but explain, "Ellie's grandpa is sick. I called her but couldn't get through. I
thought she was in trouble and that's why I came to L City. I forgot to tell you about it before I left."

"Well, I know that." Andrew embraced Ashley tightly, not wanting to let her go.

At this moment, Ellie and Johnny looked at each other.

Frowning, Ellie asked, "What did your boss mean by what he said just now?" Ellie had guessed that
they might be in a romantic relationship, but she couldn't believe it.

Johnny had been trying to please Ashley because she was now the wife of his boss. Since Ellie was
Ashley's best friend, he certainly wanted to take good care of her too.

With a broad smile, Johnny replied in a friendly way, "Our boss meant that Miss Mu is his wife now."

"What? When did they get married?" Ellie asked curiously.



"They married not long ago, on the 20th of April," answered Johnny.

Ellie felt that there was something wrong with Ashley several days ago. It seemed that she was hiding
something from her. However, when she asked her about it, Ashley told her not to worry, as if nothing
had happened.

But she had sensed something was wrong; Ashley hid the truth every time.

'How could she marry a man she had only met a few times?' she thought.

Thinking that she had done a ridiculous thing, Ellie felt sorry for Ashley.

'As her best friend, I didn't find out what had happened to her!' she thought to herself. She felt very
guilty.

Ashley felt a bit uncomfortable in Andrew's tight embrace. But she didn't pull herself out of his arms
immediately.

"Let me go." After a while, she pushed him away.

"Ellie is still waiting for me there." Not paying attention to Andrew's discontent, Ashley left him. Feeling
embarrassed, Andrew followed her.

Ashley came to Ellie hurriedly and found her waiting sullenly. At that moment, she felt it was not a good
time to explain the whole thing to her.

"Ellie, it's all a bit complicated. Can I explain it to you later?" Ashley asked in a low voice.

Ellie looked at her, and remained quiet.

Ashley was convinced that she was mad at her.



Ashley felt disappointed. She had planned to explain the whole thing to Ellie at some point. But now,
Andrew had got her into trouble. How could she explain that?

Ashley couldn't help but shoot a stern look at Andrew. She did blame him for revealing their marriage
boldly to her best friend without thinking.

Coincidentally, Andrew was staring right back at her, his eyes full of innocence.

Ashley felt confused and helpless.

"Boss, can we go back now? You have an important meeting tomorrow..."

Seeing that the tension between Andrew and Ashley began to abate, Johnny couldn't help but remind
Andrew of tomorrow's meeting.

Besides, it was so late now, and it was time to go back. There would be so many things to deal with at
work tomorrow.

Andrew just stared at Ashley quietly without saying a word.
