A Love Trap Chapter 147 Ashley Didn't Want To Go To The Party

Andrew suddenly interrupted Jade, "Well, we have to go now because we have something important to
do."

Saying that Andrew went out before Jade got a chance to say something more. He turned back so
abruptly as if he was in a hurry to go. Seeing this, Jade was left speechless as she didn't know what to
say or how to react.

"Have you finished with what you are talking about?" Seeing Andrew come out, Ashley moved towards
them and asked.

"Yeah!" Affirming to Ashley's question, Andrew nodded his head and intended to head out with her
while holding her hand.

Not wanting them to leave all of a sudden, Jade wanted to say something to delay them even for a
minute. However, when she saw the expression on Andrew's face, she was halted with what she was
about to do and shut the idea off her mind. 'Where's Rosaline? If she doesn't show up soon, Andrew
will get out of here, ' Jade thought.

When she was just fretting on Rosaline's arrival, she heard a sweet voice from outside.

"Andrew!" Rosaline called with her sweet and surprised voice with an equally bright face. She looked
so stunning in her casual shirt and skirt attire while wearing a light make-up.

Seeing her, Jade stopped frowning at once. 'Thank goodness. Rosaline shows up just in time, ' she
thought to herself.

With a smile on her charming and delicate face, Rosaline appeared right across Andrew's path.

Subsequently, Andrew looked at Rosaline and nodded his head to greet her with a cold face.



"Andrew, are you leaving?" Looking at the pissed-off expression on his face, and the way he acted as if
he was impatient, Rosaline frowned and asked, being slightly frustrated and sad.

Rosaline was wearing a knee-length white pleated skirt with white lace. From her ruffled three-quarter
sleeves, you could see a small part of her fine snow-white arms. She was wearing her white high heels.
She was simply charming and irresistible.

Her black hair was shoulder-length, with a bit curl at the ends. And her eyes were big that
complimented the features of her smart face, and her skin was white, which made her look beautiful
and lovely.

Intending to persuade him to stay a little longer, Rosaline stretched out her hand to hold Andrew's arm.
To her surprise, however, Andrew pulled away. He was determined to leave and no one could stop him,
not even Rosaline.

At that moment, both Ashley and Rosaline looked at each other and both were surprised by Andrew's
actions.

As Rosaline saw that Ashley and Andrew were quite close to each other, Rosaline was stunned.

'Who is that woman? How dare she stand so close to Andrew? I can even sense that they are close to
each other!' Rosaline thought to herself, jealous of Ashley being close to Andrew.

As far as Rosaline was concerned, Andrew didn't have a girlfriend. All this time, she had never seen
any women by his side. After all, she had all the time in the world to get to know Andrew better. She
was grateful to Jade for it was because of her that she was able to meet Andrew. Gradually, she took it
for granted that she was different and special to him in certain ways.

This time Andrew grabbed hold of Ashley's hand as they were about to leave. Thus, when she saw
Ashley and Andrew stand there hand in hand, Rosaline felt very angry and jealous at the same time. At



that moment, the only thing she wanted to do was separate them at once. She wished that it was her
hand that Andrew was holding. She was so pissed that if she wasn't able to control herself she could
even grab all the hairs away from that woman's head.

With resentment shimmering in her eyes, Rosaline thought, 'Who does she think she is? Who gave her
the right to hold Andrew's hand?

What a shameless bitch!'

Obviously, Rosaline didn't take Ashley as her opponent and thought that she was just nobody. She
thought that she would be easy to handle and was nothing compared to her. In her head, she just
thought that Andrew was a rich and charming man. Naturally, most of the girls around him would be
attracted to him. She just thought that to console herself so as not to be totally vexed by the situation.

Although Rosaline was frustrated, for she failed to hold Andrew's arm, she managed to look at him with
a happy face, when in fact she was about to cry.

"Andrew, who is she?" Moving forward towards them, Rosaline stomped her foot and asked with her
eyes on Andrew's face.

"None of your business. Why? Anything wrong?" Sarcastically, Andrew frowned and impatiently
questioned with his brows slightly raised a bit against Rosaline.

"Andrew, it's been a long time since we saw each other the last time. Do you miss me?" With a sad
expression on her face, Rosaline asked again. She hoped that he would change his mind and would
incline to her this time.

"Rosaline, Andrew has plenty of things to deal with in his company. Of course, he doesn't get much
free time as you have," Interrupting her, Jade also went out as she heard her pathetic voice. It seemed
that she blamed Rosaline for being so insensitive. But for Rosaline, however, that was not the reason



why she asked such a question. She actually wanted Ashley to hear her words, and implied to her that
Andrew belonged to her alone.

"Mom!" Rosaline stomped her foot with a blushing face.

"You haven't seen Andrew for such a long time. I'm sure you must have a lot to talk to him," Jade
responded.

"Of course," Hastily, Rosaline answered as she took a look at Andrew.

The way they talked to each other was so impervious that they didn't think about whether Andrew
wanted to talk to Rosaline or not.

When Rosaline was about to get closer to Andrew, he suddenly opened his mouth, "We have to go now
because I've got something to do."

After that, he held Ashley's hand and left, without paying any more attention to Rosaline and her
mother.

"Well, Andrew..." Being cut short from what she was about to say, Rosaline could do nothing but to
watch Andrew leave with Ashley. She stood there, sad, surprised, angry and disheartened.

"Wait, wait! Slow down!" Being dragged away by Andrew, Ashley cried out. At that time, she wore a
dress and a stiletto, causing her to walk slowly. Not heading to her pleas, however, Andrew walked very
quickly. As a result, Ashley lost her balance and stumbled backward.

Insensitive to what he had caused, Andrew didn't say anything but slowed down to wait for Ashley.

After Ashley and Andrew left the store, Rosaline changed her innocent face into a grumpy one.



"Mom, who the hell is that woman? Why did she get so close to Andrew?" Looking at their backs,
Rosaline asked her mother.

"I don't know. But Andrew told me that she is his wife," Frankly and shortly, Jade responded while
looking at her daughter's face which was suddenly flushed out of color.

"What? That's impossible," With her mouth in aghast, Rosaline shouted in disbelief.

Then she continued, "It's impossible. There's no way Andrew's married. Moreover, if he's married, why
don't we have any information about it? Why are we not invited to his wedding?" After being surprised
and shocked for a short while, Rosaline completely denied it.

"I'm not sure. But Andrew seemed to be telling the truth. I can't find any reason why he would lie on
such matters. Besides, it looked like he hasn't told his family about it too," Jade added.

Hearing that, Rosaline lowered her eyes and seemed to be deep in thought.

After getting out of the store with Andrew, Ashley suddenly found that he was depressed. Although she
didn't know why thus she braced herself up and asked him why he was acting so indifferent.

Thus with the softest and most soothing voice she had, Ashley asked, "What's the matter with you? Are
you okay?"

Facing her this time, Andrew caressed Ashley's hair and replied, "Nothing. I suddenly remembered that
I still have some important work to take care of. I have the invitation with me, and you just go ahead
with Johnny." With that, he escorted Ashley towards the car where Johnny was waiting. After they got
into the car, Andrew gave Ashley the invitation.

"Will you be joining us after you take care of what it is that you need to deal with?" With a puzzled look
on her face, Ashley asked as she looked at the invitation.



"Don't worry. I'll be there soon," Andrew answered shortly.

All of a sudden, Ashley saw a familiar name on the invitation, which made her completely stunned.

Clyde Luo, CEO of the Luo Group, would celebrate his 50th birthday on May 12. The invitation was
from him.

All this time, Ashley knew that Clyde had a son and his name was Raymond. Coincidentally, Ashley
dated him for three years. When she was his girlfriend, he once asked her to meet his parents. But she
refused, for she thought that was not the right time. Moreover, she felt that Raymond's parents didn't
like her at all and what they had during that time was nothing but just a teenage love affair. So, before
they ended their relationship, Ashley wasn't able to meet his parents.

Today, however, she was totally taken aback and she didn't expect that the birthday invitation was from
Raymond's father.

At that moment, Ashley felt that the invitation was like a hot potato, that holding it in her hands made
her sense a burning sensation that pierced through her skin. She wanted to throw it away and just
dismiss the idea of attending the party, but she couldn't.

Maybe she should have seen that coming. These things were inevitable and had high probabilities of
happening. Both Raymond and Andrew were considered high members of society. Therefore, it was
normal for Andrew to receive invitations from Raymond's father considering that they were from the
same circle.

If the invitation was from another high member of the society, Ashley would go without hesitation.
However, today's invitation was from her former boyfriend Raymond's father. How would she react to
this? She didn't know.
