A Love Trap Chapter 373 Ungrateful Person

"He just did what he had to do under this circumstance in our company. He would do the same if it
happened to anyone else. So it isn't true that he did that just to protect me.

I believe if you were in my position, he would treat you the same as he treated me.

Okay, if you don't have anything else, could you leave me alone? I have something else to do."

The faces of the group of people turned stiff. Each of them proceeded to flash an awkward smile and
said, "Sure. If you're busy, we won't bother you anymore."

As they said that, they started to turn around and leave.

"Wait a minute," said Ashley.

"What is it?"

"Please take all these things back. I can't take these gifts for doing nothing for you. Besides, these gifts
are very expensive. I can't give you the same gifts in return."

Their smiles suddenly became twisted. Under Ashley's watch, they had to come over to her desk and
pick up the things they left beside her computer.

After they all left, Ashley breathed a huge sigh of relief. She showed them some attitude and her tone
wasn't pleasant to hear. Surely they didn't feel good being at the receiving end of it. So she hoped they
wouldn't bother her anymore.

Amaia came back after the crowd was all gone. She asked, "How did it go? What did they say to you?
Were they fawning over you?"



Ashley bent on her desk and nodded. "You were right. It's just as you expected. Now that they know
that Johnny is my cousin. A lot of people came over to fawn over me."

After she watched Amaia for a while, she added, "Well, next time they come over, you have to help me.
Otherwise I'll give Johnny's contact information to them and let them go after him." Ashley couldn't
know better what these women could be thinking.

Amaia immediately got worked up. "How dare you, Ashley!"

"Okay, I won't do it. But you know those women's hearts. They all desire to win Johnny's heart for their
own. Next time you have to help me deal with them. Keep them away from me."

Amaia clenched her teeth and replied, "Okay.

What did you say to them just now? How did you get them to leave?" Amaia was curious how Ashley
handled the matter by herself.

"What could I do? I had to tell them the truth. Hopefully they got what they wanted to hear so that they
wouldn't come by and pester me again."

"Aren't you afraid that they might badmouth you behind your back?" asked Amaia.

"They're free to say what they feel. How can I control them? Just forget them. Let's focus on work."

Amaia pressed her lips down and said nothing.

The people who were given the cold shoulder went back to their desks. They threw the gifts onto their
desks angrily and plopped on the chairs in utter frustration.

"Who the hell does Ashley think she is? Does she think she is a big shot now? If it wasn't for her cousin
Johnny, I wouldn't have to grovel to her and give her a gift."



"Exactly! She is just lucky to be born in a family that is related to Johnny. She is too full of herself! It
really pissed me off! How arrogant she is to ask us to take back these gifts!"

"She has to look at herself in the mirror! A cheapskate! She doesn't deserve the gift I wanted to give
her at all!"

"Right! She's such an ungrateful, spoiled brat!"

"Hedda, maybe we could teach that arrogant brat a lesson?" Someone whispered.

"Hum, right. Hedda, you are a senior member here. How could she treat you like that? You have to
teach her a lesson!"

Hedda was wearing a red dress. She had a luscious figure that gave out a highly seductive aura.

Upon hearing these words, she looked at the first person who suggested such a thing.

That woman got cold feet immediately when her eyes met Hedda's. She lowered her head and sulked
back to her area.

It took Hedda a while to draw her attention back. She said slowly, "If you want to teach her a lesson,
you go head and teach her yourselves. I don't want to get involved with your business. Don't forget.
She is the cousin of the special aide. On what world did you think she will allow you to teach her a
lesson?"

'Are you dreaming of treating her as a fool?

What a group of idiots you are!'

Ashley was feeling helpless too. She didn't want anything to do with Johnny either.

It was a bad excuse she used to get into this company, but she didn't have another choice back then.



After they got off work, Amaia dragged Ashley aside and asked, "Well, Ashley, when will you teach me
how to cook?" She expected Ashley to teach her right after work.

"How about this weekend? If we don't have to work this weekend, you come to my house and I'll teach
you."

Unless there were any emergencies, they usually didn't have to work overtime over the weekends.

Moreover, Ashley thought it was more convenient to make the appointment on the weekend instead of
right after work hours.

She could go to Ellie's place and they could both teach Amaia how to cook.

"Great. Don't forget about it then," said Amaia, with a sly grin forming on her face.

"Sure, I won't. Don't worry," assured Ashley.

After she said that to Amaia, Ashley quickly rushed out of the office. She was afraid that Andrew would
wait for her for too long outside.

As she hurriedly ran to the big tree, she saw Andrew's car already parked there.

Ashley put on a big smile and reached her hand for the door. She immediately got into the car.

Andrew heard the car door open and close. He turned back to see Ashley's sweaty face with a strand
of hair stuck to her cheek. She was catching her breath and her cute mouth opened slightly as she
gasped for air. Her face was flushed pink and felt warm.

Andrew's expression didn't change but his eyes narrowed.

The moment he saw Ashley, his whole body turned relaxed and softened.



He drew a piece of tissue paper from the tissue box and wiped the sweat off her face. "Why were you
in such a hurry? We won't leave without you."

Ashley smiled from ear to ear and replied, "I know you won't go without me, but I don't want to keep
you waiting."

Andrew's heart melted after hearing this. He could hardly hide his smile slowly forming on his lips.

"It doesn't matter. We will wait for you as long as you need."

He felt butterflies in his stomach and his heart felt lighter. Now he saw that Ashley relied on him more
than ever.

He wished she could always rely on him forever.

He recalled what Ron once said. And he turned to look at her again.

'Well, I'll be nicer to her, adore her more and more, make her unable to leave me!'

Johnny took a glance at them being so intimate and felt that he was so miserable to be forced to
witness this lovely yet cheesy scene again.

He had the sudden urge to throw up.

'Can anyone explain to me why the relationship of a couple in love, no, a married couple could look like
a roller coaster?'
