A Love Trap Chapter 166 The Gift For Your Engagement

The situation was very clear. Clyde had already made his decision. To his surprise, however, Lena
actually refused him. He started to wonder why she had become so slow with this.

Lena still held onto the ring and refused to give it to Ashley. However, she loosened her grip on it after
Cora sighed and whispered something in her ear. Lena's eyes widened at what Cora told her, and then
she looked at Andrew with unconcealed shock. She could feel her face getting hotter, and her breath
was becoming more and more labored.

It was obvious that she was having a hard time in believing that Andrew was a man with a great
influence on all the rich people she knew. It never occurred to her that Andrew would be a man who her
parents and her parents-in-law only dreamt of having a chance to talk to.

The shock lasted for just a while, though. Soon, her jealousy swallowed her up once again. Her eyes
started getting red with evil. Slowly, she glanced at Ashley, who was being protected by Andrew.

She couldn't accept the fact that an orphan who had nothing would end up with such an amazing man.
To her, Ashley was nothing. A nobody. To her, Ashley didn't deserve a man like Andrew. A man like him
should be hers. And with that, Lena decided to do everything in her power to seduce Andrew.

Because of that, she quickly put her evil thoughts and expression away. After that, she took a deep
breath and put on her best, cutest, beautiful and innocent smile on her face. Shyly, she walked towards
Ashley and tried to hold her hand. However, Johnny was having none of it and stopped her.

Towering over Lena, he said, "Miss, I'm sorry but you can't get closer. My boss likes to keep a distance
with others. You can say whatever you need to say right here."

That made Lena almost lose her temper, but she managed to hold herself together. However, she
couldn't let go of what happened. She just glanced at Johnny with mockery in her eyes. She thought
there was no point for her to be angry with an assistant that could be replaced easily.



In her head, she truly believed that she would be the wife of the Lu Group's CEO, and then, the
assistant in front of her would pay for what he had done. 'I would fire you immediately, and you would
regret the day you met me, ' she thought, smirking.

It was a good thing for Lena that Johnny didn't know what was going on in her mind. If he did, he would
definitely burst out laughing. Everything that she was thinking was moronic.

And even a moron wouldn't have the guts to think of such things!

Lena would be considered a joke if she ever verbalized what she was thinking.

Johnny, for one, knew for sure that Lena would never have the slightest chance of being Andrew's wife,
and everything she was planning in her head would not happen.

Even Andrew's father didn't even have the power to fire Johnny; there was no way that someone like
Lena would be able to do so.

"Ash, I think I was mistaken. This is not the ring that Raymond gave me. I am sorry!" Lena looked at
Ashley apologetically. Her face turned slightly red to show how sorry she really was. Seeing her like
this, people could hardly blame her for anything.

Everyone thought she was just an innocent, little girl who made a tiny, forgivable mistake.

Clyde and Cora finally relaxed after Lena did what they wanted.

Andrew didn't even bother to look up at her. His eyes were still fixed on Ashley, and he was mindlessly
playing with her soft hair. Lena's apology merely earned her a mocking sneer from Andrew.

Lena's expression froze. She couldn't believe what Andrew just did to her. He sneered at her without
even giving her a glance!



Andrew waited for a while before responding, and it made the whole scenario really awkward. Slowly,
he continued, "It looks like you really like this ring. It's yours then. Just think it's my engagement gift to
you." Andrew still wasn't looking at Lena.

Rage roared inside Lena, and she couldn't help but tighten her grip on the ring that she was holding.
The strength made her fingers become pale. 'A gift for my engagement? It is my engagement ring!'
Lena shouted in her head.

However, knowing who Andrew was, Lena didn't dare offend him.

So, she had to swallow her pride.

"Oh my! Is he the CEO of the Lu Group named Andrew Lu?" a rich girl asked loudly after the moment
she realized who Andrew was.

As everyone heard what she said, the silence in the room was once again broken.

They then quickly turned their heads to look at the girl who broke the news.

As soon as she said it out, she realized that maybe she should have lowered her voice. As a result, she
covered her mouth and started looking terrified.

But after a while, the eyes moved on from her, and she finally relaxed.

"Hey, Lilly. What do you mean? Are you sure it's him? Are you sure he is the CEO of Lu Group?" a
friend of the girl asked.

Lilly responded to her friend, now more conscious of the volume of her voice, "I said that man standing
right next to Lena's sister earlier looked very familiar. He is the special assistant of the CEO of the Lu
Group. Although he is just an assistant, his boss trusts him very much. He definitely has a high position
in the company."



Her friend, however, was still confused. She continued to ask, "The CEO of the Lu Group? Who is it? Is
that the man holding Lena's sister right now?"

Lilly nodded. She was very certain. "Trust me! It's him! I have seen him once from a very far distance.
But I would never forget him!"

With a face as gorgeous as Andrew's, no one would ever forget him.

"Oh my God!" one woman said, as she heard what the two were talking about. Her surprise was so
great that she had to cover her mouth to avoid herself from gasping audibly. With her eyes as big as
saucers, she truly was in shock of what she had discovered at that moment.

"Mr. Lu and Miss Mu, please come with me," Clyde said respectfully, as he walked up to Andrew and
Ashley.

Ashley tightened her grip on Andrew's hand, watching Clyde's movements warily.

Andrew firmly squeezed Ashley's hand, as if to assure her that he was there. That greatly calmed her
down.

Turning to Clyde, he replied, "Thank you. But the Luo family doesn't seem to welcome us."

With that, Clyde felt that his legs were about to fail to support his body. Cold sweat started dripping
down his forehead. In a trembling voice, he responded, "Mr. Lu, that's really funny for you to say. You
and Miss Mu are most welcome to our party! Anything you need, just let me know. I will try my best to
be a good host to the both of you."

Clyde still didn't know what was going on, but he decided it was the best for him and the whole Luo
family to be polite to them.



Without a word, Andrew just looked at Clyde, then he walked out of the hall with Ashley. Johnny and
Josef followed them closely behind.

Johnny seemed to remember something very important, so he stopped suddenly. He turned, looked at
the crowd and said, "Mr. Lu wants to keep everything that happened in this room, in the room. If
anything comes out, he will not be thrilled. His anger is not something any of you could take. So, I
suggest that every one of you keep everything in."

Johnny sounded so matter-of-factly that it seemed like he was just reminding everyone to bring an
umbrella since it might rain.

Everyone in the room got and understood the message. Johnny was working for Andrew, the CEO of
the Lu Group, and that meant he meant what he said.

Every person in the room silently nodded in agreement.

Seeing that, Johnny smiled and went on his way.

Josef was about to catch up with Andrew and Ashley when Johnny stopped him.

Josef quickly turned around and looked at Johnny. With confusion in his eyes, he asked "What's up?
Spill it. I still need to get the car!"

Johnny gave Josef a hopeless look, and replied, "What? Do you have nothing else in your brain
besides that car? Can't you see? Mr. Lu and Miss Mu need some personal time together! Do you really
want to ruin their moment?"

Josef looked at Johnny and stammered, "But...but...but Mr. Lu didn't tell me that he wanted to spend
some time with Miss. Mu alone..."



Johnny slapped his forehead and rolled his eyes. "You hopeless dumbass!" he whispered, shaking his
head.

Upon hearing this, Josef got offended. He replied, "Hey, watch out, man! There's literally no need to
call me names!"

"I just did. What do you want to do about it? Dumbass," Johnny replied, annoyed.

And with that, Josef started to clench his fists. With narrowed eyes, he threatened Johnny, "Don't you
dare speak to me like that!"

However, Johnny was not afraid of his threat nor did he back down. So they started to fight.

They had found their way of leaving Andrew and Ashley alone.

Ashley was still in shock of what was going on. Andrew put one of his arms around her shoulders as
they walked in silence. When they got to the car, he opened the door for her and led her inside. Inside,
she was finally able to gather her thoughts as she looked into his passionate
eyes.
