A Love Trap Chapter 165 My Wife's Ring

Peggy's hands came up to the cheek that Spencer had just slapped. Her eyes were fixed on him in
confusion, and she was too shocked to move.

She tasted blood, which was something that made her realize what was going on. The rage built up
within her, and her eyes were spitting fire. She shouted at him, "Spencer! You slapped me! How could
you do that to me?"

"Father!" Lena called out. She couldn't believe what had just happened either. She looked at Spencer,
trying to understand why he had done it.

Spencer ignored them. He walked up to Andrew and glanced at Ashley, who was in Andrew's arms. He
then lowered his head and said, "Mr. Lu. I am sorry about what has just happened. My wife didn't mean
to hurt Ashley. She was just a little overwhelmed by the situation. We treat Ashley like our own and will
never hit her. My wife might just try to scare her a little so that she would not make such a mistake
again." Spencer turned to Ashley and continued, "Ashley knew it too, right?"

Spencer could never have thought that Ashley was the person Andrew was looking for. But he didn't
really care about how that had happened. The only thing that was going through his head was that his
daughter was the wife of the CEO of the Lu Group. His corporation, the Mu Group, would soon have all
the resources and contracts that any company could dream of.

The Luo family would soon be nothing comparing to his family. Ashley had become a shining golden
treasure in Spencer's eyes.

He could hardly conceal his excitement, and a big smile took a place on his face. He suddenly felt that
adopting Ashley was the best decision he had ever made.

Ashley sneered from within. Spencer's attitude was radically different from how he had been a while
earlier. She knew that it was because of Andrew.



"Father, what are you talking about?" said Lena. She was unable to believe what her father was saying.

To Lena, the man who was holding Ashley was just another good-looking man without any money or
power. She didn't know why her father was acting so strange.

Ashley never had the chance to meet anyone powerful. Lena hadn't considered the possibility that
Andrew might be a rich, powerful man.

Ashley was just an orphan. The Mu family was her only chance to meet rich people. But no one in her
family would give her the chance.

Her bias had already blinded her. She would normally have known that the person who could easily go
to the fancy restaurant was definitely not a nobody. She just didn't want to admit that Ashley had been
married to a wealthy and handsome gentleman. So that meant that no matter how many clues she had,
she just didn't want to look objectively at them and believe them.

Lena's question had come before Ashley could respond. Spencer looked sharply at Lena and pulled
her over so that she was standing in front of Andrew. He introduced her by saying, "Mr. Lu, this is
Ashley's sister and my younger daughter. They grew up together and loved joking around with each
other."

Spencer was talking utter nonsense, and Ashley didn't want to deal with him anymore. The more she
looked at him, the more disgusted she felt. So she looked away.

But Ashley was not the only one who didn't like what Spencer was doing. Clyde and Cora were not
happy that Spencer was making every effort to please Andrew, even pulling Lena to stand in front of
him. Lena was already engaged to their son, and they felt that Spencer should not have done that.

Johnny walked up to Andrew and whispered to him everything that had happened so far. The more
Andrew became aware of the goings on, the scarier he became. The atmosphere changed quickly, and



everyone could feel Andrew's rage now.

"You guys said that Ash took her ring?" Andrew asked, pointing his finger at Lena, and looked around
at the crowd. He said it calmly, his face devoid of any expression.

But Clyde could feel his anger. To be honest, he didn't really know what was going on. But it was very
obvious that Andrew was going to fight for Ashley.

The second Andrew had walked in, Teresa's eyes had stuck to him. She was incapable of looking away
from his gorgeous face. She now wanted no one but Andrew. Raymond couldn't hold a candle to
Andrew.

Teresa completely ignored the fact that Andrew was holding Ashley in his arms. She just wanted him to
look at her.

She thought Andrew was about to give Ashley a hard time. Her face turned pink as she walked out of
the crowd, her eyes fixed on Andrew. She said, "It's true! Ashley took Lena's ring and claimed it was
hers. She is a liar and a thief! Here is her purse. We found the ring in it."

As Teresa spoke, she handed Ashley's purse to Andrew. It was the one that she had grabbed from
Ashley not long ago.

Johnny walked up, took the purse from Teresa and gave it back to Ashley. Johnny knew it was
Ashley's, and anything that belonged to her belonged to Andrew too. So he knew that he needed to
take it back.

Teresa's words made Ashley feel a little nervous even though she hadn't stolen anything. Ashley
looked at Andrew anxiously.



She hadn't taken the ring and she didn't care what those people accused her of or thought of her. But
she didn't want Andrew to doubt her. Somehow, he had become different from all of those people. She
actually cared about what he thought of her.

So, she tried to explain, "Andrew..." She held his hand tighter. She really wanted to explain herself to
Andrew, but she suddenly didn't know what to say when she opened her mouth.

"Hmmm?" Hearing Ashley call his name, Andrew lowered his head and looked gently at her. Her
anxious expression further fueled his rage.

If giving his word to Ashley would make sure that she would never cry again, Andrew would do it
without hesitation. But everyone in that party was accusing and taunting Ashley like it was nothing.
Andrew's rage was expanding like wild fire, and soon, it would envelop the Luo family.

"Don't worry. I trust you," Andrew whispered in Ashley's ear.

Johnny had already told him everything. He never could understand how these people could dare to
shamelessly accuse someone like that, especially when the wrongly accused person was his wife.

Andrew sneered and said to Clyde, "I really don't know how the ring I gave my wife became your son's
engagement ring. I would like an explanation."

Andrew's voice was cold, but Clyde could feel his rage enveloping the room.

Clyde had heard that Andrew was a strategic man. He would, without hesitation, do anything for what
he wanted. It had only taken him two years for him to build the Lu Group into a business empire that
every corporation in the city could never dream of becoming.

"It has to be a mistake! Lena! Give your sister's ring back!" Clyde said to Lena.



Lena couldn't believe what Clyde had just asked her to do. She refused and said, "Mr. Luo, this is my
engagement ring. Look! It has Raymond's and my name on the side!"

Clyde obviously knew that it was their engagement ring. But if Andrew said that it was his, it had
become his. The Lu Group was not a small business that they could deal with. Andrew could easily turn
their family into nothing if he wanted.
