A Love Trap Chapter 318 Meeting Lena

Seeing Ashley close the door, Raymond walked over and asked, "How was it?"

The sound-proofing in the room was really good so Lena wasn't afraid of anyone overhearing her
conversation with Ashley. Plus, Raymond would never eavesdrop on them.

Seeing how worried he was, Ashley replied, "Why don't you go inside and find out yourself?"

Dropping the last word, Ashley walked away without giving him the chance to say anything else.

She knew that no matter what she said, he would not believe her. Lena's tears had already convinced
him to not trust Ashley.

She rolled her eyes at his stupidity.

Watching Ashley leave, he frowned. Then, he walked into the room.

He was stunned by Lena's appearance at the moment he walked in.

The top half of her body was hanging on the side of the bed. Her face was almost as pale as the
hospital's wall. Her eyes lost their light. She looked like a body without a soul inside.

Raymond's heart tightened. He went over to her and asked gently, "Lena, what's wrong? You are
scaring me!"

Lena turned her eyes to the direction of the voice. Seeing Raymond, she flung herself into his arms and
called out his name. "Raymond!" she wailed.

He held her in his arms and asked, "What's wrong? Don't worry. You can tell me anything. Did Ashley
say something to hurt your feelings?"



She looked at Raymond tearfully and replied, "She...she asked me to stay away from her business. I
was just trying to help. I can't watch her reputation get ruined like that. But, she..."

Lena cried out loud for a while. Then she sobbed, "She also said that my baby didn't deserve to be in
this world. It was its own fault... Raymond..."

Lena's crying made Raymond's heart ache.

He patted her back and tried his best to comfort her. After a while, Lena finally fell asleep in his arms.

Raymond was starting to feel angry. He didn't even know where his rage was coming from.

He wasn't sure if he was angry about what Ashley had done to Lena or the fact that she didn't care
about her own reputation.

He didn't bother to find out. He dialed Ashley's number on his phone.

Ashley was totally lost. She was trying her best to find her way back to her room when her phone rang.
Even though the call was from Raymond, she answered it.

"What?" she said.

"Where are you?" he asked.

Everything looked the same to Ashley. She looked around and found a familiar sign. Then she bit her
lips and said, "Somewhere near Lena's room. I guess."

It really frustrated her for not being able to find her way around. This was a problem for most people
who didn't have a sense of direction.

She had no idea where she was going!



There was not much she could do at this point.

Ashley felt really vexed.

He replied, "I will find you. Just wait there for me."

With that, he hung up and left the room.

Ashley found a bench and sat down. She was playing her phone idly. She looked like a lost puppy who
couldn't find its way home.

Seeing Raymond, Ashley ran over to him and said before him, "Can you please walk me out? I can't
find my way around."

Raymond frowned. He remembered that Ashley had no sense of direction at all. She was never able to
find her way home by herself.

He didn't move. He said to Ashley, "Why did you treat Lena so harshly? She poured her heart out for
you. Even if you don't care, you can't hurt her like that!"

Ashley was speechless at his accusations.

She knew Lena had definitely made up some stories to tell him.

She also knew that there was no point in explaining things to him as he would not believe her. Now,
Lena was playing him around her fingers.

Ashley was starting to seriously wonder what she liked about Raymond in the past.

Ashley asked, "Can you explain to me what I did to her now? What did she tell you? Whatever it is, do
you really believe what she said? What if I told you that I didn't do anything to her? Are you going to
believe me?" Staring at him, Ashely wasn't afraid of his accusations at all.



Raymond suddenly lost his confidence. He couldn't even look her in the eye.

Thinking of the poor Lena, he subconsciously responded, "No! Lena won't lie to me."

Ashley scoffed.

She didn't want his help anymore.

She would rather try to find her way out by herself.

When she turned to leave, he grabbed her arm with force. Ashley felt a sharp pain on her arm and
frowned, "What are you doing? Let go of me!"

Her irritated expression made him swallow his accusatory words. Instead, he asked, "You said you
needed my help to get out of this place. I have the time right now. I will show you the way out."

Ashley shook him off and replied apathetically, "Don't bother."

Then she walked away, leaving Raymond standing helplessly.

It was the first time that he had seen such hostility in her eyes.

Thankfully, Ashley's luck was not too bad. After half an hour of wandering around at the hospital, she
finally found her room.

She didn't know whether Andrew had arranged it. But at exactly seven o'clock, a nurse bought in her
dinner. The meal was really good. Everything was perfect! The only thing missing was Andrew.

After dinner, she quickly got ready for bed. Lying in the bed, she checked the Internet to read the news
about her.



She had to admit the Mu and Luo families were trying hard to push her to a corner.

The news about her were all bad. The media was taking digs at her and they all pronounced her guilty
of killing her sister's baby.

Of course, the Mu and Luo families were behind this public accusation. They bought a lot of comments.
Or, Ashley couldn't be that popular.

If she hadn't noticed Lena's strange behavior on that day and recorded their conversation, her life
would be totally ruined today.

Looking though some of the online comments about her, Ashely checked her Microblog for a while. She
was exhausted.

It was nine o'clock already and Andrew still had not come.

It was the first time that he had been this late since their wedding.

She was really tired so she soon fell asleep. The AC was on and the temperature in the room was nice.
Ashley had a thin cover on.

However, Ashley was frowning in her sleep. Maybe it was due to Andrew's absence. She appeared to
be agitated in her sleep.

It was already midnight when Andrew came back. He had to attend a party. That was why he had
asked Johnny to take Ashley back to the hospital first.

However, Johnny didn't do so. Ashley was on her own and Andrew was worried about her the whole
time he was at the party. Although he tried to leave after a while, he didn't have the chance to do so.
Everyone in the party stopped him from leaving. That was why he got delayed.
