A Love Trap Chapter 333 Lie

"Lena did come to see me and ask me to put in a good word for her. But I'll leave that entirely to your
discretion. I won't interfere with your decision,"

Ron said to Ashley.

They both regarded each other for a while.

Lena was Ron's sister after all. What could she do?

"Ron, I'm not going to sue Lena, but under one condition," she said with a serious expression.

"Tell me," he said.

"I want her to leave this country and not come back for three years. And after she comes back, she
shouldn't show herself to me. What do you think about this, Ron?"

He studied her. Of course he knew that Ashley had offered this deal for his sake.

"Okay."

After a pause, he asked, "Ashley, I will still be your brother, won't I?"

Ron's heart was beating fast.

His own blood sister had done unthinkable things against Ashley. He was ashamed to be in front of her.

She smiled and reached for his hand. "Of course, Ron. You'll be my brother all my life. Don't be silly.
The Mu family is the Mu family; Lena is Lena. Whatever they have done to me, it has nothing to do with
you. I've never blamed you. In my heart, you have always been my only family, my blood brother."



Ron watched her sweet smile and thought bitterly, 'I wish it was possible to not be your brother. I want
to be something more, not just your brother, okay?'

But he didn't have the courage to say these words out loud. He was scared that... ...if he confessed his
feelings to her, they wouldn't even be friends anymore let alone anything else. Nobody knew Ashley's
nature better than him.

Putting a stone on his heart, he squeezed her hand warmly and said, "Great! I'll be your brother for
life." 'So I have to accept this relationship or else I would lose her. I will always protect her.

If that man does not treat her well, I'll fight to get her back by all possible means.

I'll not allow my girl to get hurt.

She deserves to be happy forever.'

The two siblings hadn't seen each for a long time so they had a lot to catch up on. And time flew by
before they knew it.

Ashley enjoyed chatting with Ron very much.

But Johnny wasn't enjoying waiting for her in the car.

He kept looking at his watch from time to time. 'Miss Mu has been in there for an hour. What the hell
are they talking about? When will they be done?

Should I go in and remind her about the time?

Today I have the rare opportunity to get off work early. Can you please let me go so that I can still have
some fun for the rest of the night?' he pleaded silently.



He had to endure watching his CEO and Miss Mu's displays of affection towards each other every day.
It made him want to vomit when he saw it.

'Are they trying to make me feel bad because I'm single?'

Ron looked at the time and said, "It's late. Let me drive you home."

This suddenly reminded her of Johnny who was waiting for her outside.

She felt so guilty but she couldn't say anything. 'My God, I couldn't stop this chat after meeting Ron.
I've completely forgotten about Johnny.'

Johnny who was forgotten was speechless too!

"Thank you, Ron, but somebody is waiting for me outside. He will drive me home," she said refusing his
offer.

"Who is he? Is it safe for you to go with him? It's no trouble at all for me to take you back to your
house," he said.

If anyone else had said this, Ashley would be very angry.

But because it was Ron who said it, she didn't get offended. She knew he was asking just because he
cared and worried about her.

"It is okay. He's Andy's special aide. We know each other very well. You don't have to worry about me."

Ron was a little puzzled and asked, "Andy?"

Ashley was embarrassed and replied, "He's my husband."

Ron suddenly regretted asking that question. Now he was even more upset inside.



Ashley caught the change in his expression and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Ron?"

Ron had to shake himself out of his misery quickly. He replied, "Nothing. Let's just get out of here."

"Okay," she agreed.

So they left the cafe together. Johnny was staring at the door eagerly and impatiently. He was wailing
inside, 'Miss Mu, when will you come out the door?'

When he saw her coming out, he immediately cheered up.

'Well, who is that man beside Miss Mu?

Is that her brother?

Why does her brother look like he's besotted with her?'

Johnny got out of the car and went to meet Ashley. "Miss Mu, are you done?"

Ashley saw Johnny and felt embarrassed for making him wait for so long in the car. "Yes," she said
quickly.

Johnny said, "Then let's head back, Miss Mu. Mr. Lu just called and asked about you..."

Ashley heard Andrew's name and didn't care about anything else after that. "Ron, I have to go home
now. Let's meet and catch up again next time. Bye."

She waved goodbye to Ron cheerfully.

Then she got in the car.

Johnny started the car immediately after she sat and drove at full speed.



'Of course we have to leave quickly. Why should we linger there any longer to give more opportunities
to the boss's rival?'

Johnny kept his acrid remarks to himself and never said anything out loud.

Ron stayed where he was watching the car speed off and disappear. He almost failed to retain his
usual mild expression.

'Ashley...'

As soon as she got into the car, Ashley asked Johnny, "Did Andrew really call? What did you tell him?
You didn't let out my secret, did you, Johnny?"

Ashley was equally worried and guilty.

Johnny was feeling the same way but he was particularly guilty. Because the CEO didn't call at all. He
just said that to urge Ashley to head back.

But now he couldn't tell the truth.

"Uh, Mr. Lu called a moment ago and asked me if I had already dropped you home safely. I told him
that you had already reached home."

"Oh, then why didn't he call me?" she asked casually.

She was feeling so guilty that she failed to detect the loopholes in Johnny's story.

If Andrew had called, he would of course call Ashley instead of Johnny.

Why would a cold and aloof person like Andrew call Johnny personally?

But luckily Ashley didn't catch this discrepancy.



Johnny felt very relieved.

"Probably he thought you are resting and didn't want to disturb you," he explained, trying to make his
story sound more reasonable.

"What time is it? Why would he assume I was resting so early?" Ashley mumbled.

Ashley still didn't suspect anything. The possibility that Johnny might be lying to her had not crossed
her mind.

Johnny quietly drove Ashley back to Golden Palace and then left.
