A Love Trap Chapter 361 I Won’t Let Go Of Her!

In fact, Andrew had finished dealing with everything in the company. But he didn't want to go back
home. He wouldn't find Ashley there anyway.

Looking to his side, Johnny looked at Andrew, sitting indifferently and fiddling with his phone. He almost
went mad!

Something must have happened to Andrew. Something was different, recently. So, he worked very
hard as his assistant and tried to make things as smooth as possible for his boss. It was normal for him
to work that way, day and night but he did his best even more.

He was like a spinning top that kept turning and never stopped. Naturally, he was exhausted. He
couldn't keep up with his boss.

He simply wanted to find a soft bed, be carried off to dreamland and have a good sleep.

When Ashley called, Johnny glanced at his boss secretly. Without looking at him, Andrew told him that
he wasn't allowed to answer the phone.

They both looked at the phone ringing. The harsh, blaring sound reverberated throughout the room. It
kept ringing until it automatically stopped.

Unexpectedly, Andrew's mobile phone suddenly rang. Just seeing the expression on his boss' face, he
knew it was a call from Ashley.

'It's understandable that Mr. Lu didn't allow me to answer Miss Mu's phone call. But why won't he
answer it as well? What actually happened?

In the past, as long as Miss Mu called him, he would immediately be happy. The smile on his face was
so obvious for everyone to see. He was at her beck and call. Why won't he answer it now? It's strange,
' Johnny mused.



Andrew read the message from the one he missed so dearly. She was asking him to go back to have
dinner together and said that she had something important to discuss with him.

Panic and nervousness overcame him for the first time.

'Did she realize that she doesn't love me and now wanted him? Does she love her brother, Ron, who
has always been good to her?' Andrew thought.

He subconsciously wanted to evade her and didn't want to go back. He never wanted to hear cruel
words of rejection from Ashley's own mouth.

So, when the phone rang, he ignored it even if he wanted to hear her melodious voice.

He was afraid. He was afraid that Ashley would say something he hated, something he didn't want to
hear. He was afraid that she would say she wanted to leave him for another man.

'She said she likes me. How come she wants to leave me now?' A crisis he never encountered before
had bothered him at that moment.

He closed his eyes as he thought about Francis' words from last night.

'The right strategy is to treat her nicer. Make her feel that nobody would love her more than you do. You
have to do as much as you could until she always thinks of how nice you are when she meets that
man. When that happens, she wouldn't ever want to leave you for another man. She will only have you
in her heart!'

When he thought of this, his eyes suddenly opened with a sharp glint in them. 'Yes! Ashley is mine! No
one can take her from me!

No matter what happens, I won't let go of her!



It doesn't matter if she has fallen in love with another man!' Confidence overflowed from him with
renewed determination.

Ashley never thought that Andrew would be so agitated over a message from her. She only wanted to
talk about how their relationship was different from before. She wanted to set it straight and clarify their
status.

It seemed that their relationship would grow worse by the day if they let it be.

A long time had passed when Andrew pulled himself from his thoughts. Johnny almost went numb as
he waited when he heard, "Take me back."

'Take you back? Where am I going to take you back to? Are you going back to the villa?

You finally made a good decision, Mr. Lu! It's really surprising that you're going back to the villa!'
thought Johnny.

It made him so excited that he almost wanted to shake his boss's hands and thank him for his wise
decision.

But, he tried to calm himself down and obediently said, "Okay." Andrew had started to leave. He caught
up to him and drove him back to the villa.

The car soon arrived at the Golden Palace.

Ashley had taken a bath and had worn soft and comfortable house-wear. An appetizing smell
permeated the air as she left her room. She approached the kitchen and asked, "Claire, what are you
making? It smells great."

Claire beamed as she replied, "Miss Mu, how are you? I especially cooked some soup for you to relax
and sleep well."



Concerned that Ashley might think that the soup might taste bad, she added, "Don't worry, I only added
a few medicinal herbs into it. It wouldn't leave any peculiar taste."

Ashley felt warm hearted, being cared for by Claire, and hugged her. "Claire, thank you. You're so
considerate."

A caring hand reached out and patted Ashley's hand. Claire softly said, "You and my daughter are of
the same age. I feel like I see my daughter when I look at you."

Ashley smiled and joked, "You can treat me as your daughter."

Ashley had never felt maternal love. After being adopted by the Mu family, she had also looked forward
to it, but finally, she had to accept reality.

No matter what she did, they wouldn't like her.

Ashley said, "You can take a rest now, Claire. I will make dinner tonight."

Claire smiled jokingly. "Miss Mu, are you going to cook dinner for Mr. Lu?"

Ashley's face burned but she still nodded and replied, "Yes. Isn't it the responsibility of a wife to cook
for her husband?"

Claire replied with a smile, "You're right. It's the wife's responsibility to cook for her husband. Mr. Lu is
so lucky that he married such a good wife. Not only can you cook well, you're also great at other
things."

Embarrassed, Ashley said, "Well, Claire. Don't praise me anymore. You can go out and have a rest. I'll
cook dinner."



"Miss Mu, I can't let you do it all by yourself while I rest. I'll stay here and be your assistant. If Mr. Lu
comes back and sees you cooking by yourself, he might become angry."

Ashley considered before she finally agreed to allow Claire to help her.

A long while had passed before Ashley started placing the dishes on the table. She glanced at the wall
clock and grew impatient as she waited for Andrew to return home.

'Is something holding him up at work?

Will all I did tonight be made in vain?' worried Ashley.

She took out her mobile phone and tried to call Andrew again.

Andrew stood just outside the villa and stared at the door. He wondered if he should enter or not.

When he reached out for the door to open it, his phone rang. Naturally, Ashley heard Andrew's
ringtone.

After she hung the phone up, Ashley strode towards Andrew and expressionlessly said, "Welcome
back. Wash your hands. Let's have dinner together."

Ashley made herself look serious. She thought she shouldn't smile at Andrew since she was going to
ask him something. She worried that he might not answer her questions seriously if she smiled.

But in Andrew's eyes, it had another meaning.

Ashley indifferently spoke to him in a cold tone as if drawing a line between them.

She fled after saying her piece. Not all the food was served at the table yet. She needed to go back in
and finish everything.



Andrew was more and more worried.

'Is she really determined to leave me?

Maybe this will be the last dinner that we'll be having together!' thought Andrew.

Andrew licked his lips sadly and walked to the table as he sat down absent-mindedly.

Ashley placed the last dish on the table and looked at Andrew sitting at the table. He was silent as he
stared at her. She helped Andrew put some of the dishes on his plate as she went, "Have a taste. How
is it?"

Her eyes sparkled with expectation as she waited for his response.

However, Andrew was preparing for the worst. He thought that it might be the last dinner they had
together. And then after that, Ashley would leave him.

No matter how delicious the food was, he couldn't taste anything. He couldn't enjoy any of it.

However, he noticed the expectation in her voice and did his best to reply as casually as he could.
