A Love Trap Chapter 844 Driven To Distraction.

Ashley had gotten a good night's sleep.

When Ashley woke up in the morning, her condition was a lot better than it was last night. Her pale face
had regained its color. The mere sight filled Andrew with relief. He was deluded into thinking that she
wouldn't bring up Dany's name now.

But the truth was, Ashley couldn't forget it. It was something she would think about until her last breath.
After all, Dany was her daughter who was snatched from her while she was asleep.

Andrew felt weary and rubbed his temples. While Ashley slept, he had remained wide awake. After
everything that happened yesterday, he was afraid that she would wake up and go out looking Dany.
Hence he remained awake, keeping a vigil all night.

Ashley leaned against Andrew's body but she was too blind to see his fatigue. She kept prodding him
about Dany.

"First, get up," Andrew said, hoping to change the topic.

"Why?" Ashley asked, wondering why he was in a hurry.

"What do you mean? Do you want to remain with me here all day long?" A mischievous smile played
around his lips.

Ashley felt a little shy seeing his burning gaze. He was coming closer to her.

'Of course, it's already 10 am!' she thought.

Unable to meet his eyes, Ashley immediately rose from the bed. She tried to hide her crimson red face
from him.



"Don't talk like that! It is so inappropriate!" she said while putting on her slippers.

"What? I merely asked you to get off the bed. What's wrong about that?" Andrew feigned innocence.

With a sigh, Ashley let go of the matter. She knew he wouldn't admit defeat.

Soon, she went to the washroom and got dressed.

"Hurry up and put on your clothes. I'll wait for you downstairs," she said.

Her mind was completely muddled.

As she made her way downstairs, thoughts of her daughter occupied her mind.

Ashley had no interest in going to work. How could she work when her child was with someone else?

'Why is my daughter in his hands?

Why did he steal my baby from me?

How can anyone be so ruthless!

I want my baby back!' her mind screamed.

She was in a sort of trance and nearly missed a step.

"My lady, please be careful!"

Linda's said, coming forward and catching her. If it wasn't for Linda's support, she would have fallen.

"Mrs. Lu, why are you absent-minded today? What's wrong? I have never seen you like this. It's quite
dangerous!" Linda said worriedly as she looked at Ashley.



"Thank you, Linda. I'm fine," Ashley said and forced a smile.

Linda was oblivious to everything that had happened last night. Chant didn't bother to tell her anything.

Now seeing Ashley with a far-away look on her face, she didn't know what to make of it.

From what she knew, they attended a wedding. Whatever happened there was a mystery. This morning
Chant seemed to be in a bad mood as well. Linda's instincts told her something awful had happened.

"My lady, breakfast is still warm in the kitchen. Shall I bring it to you?" Linda asked.

"Okay," Ashley said but her voice lacked enthusiasm.

The breakfast was quite rich. It contained everything she loved; soy milk, fried dough sticks, shredded
rice, sandwiches and milk.

Normally, this sight would have made her drool. But today, she had no appetite. Her heart was yearning
for her little girl. None of this could calm her.

"My lady, what's wrong? Are you sick?" The more she looked at Ashley, the more concerned she
became.

"I'm fine. Call Fabio and Richard. I would like to have breakfast with them,"

Ashley said.

"It's Monday today. They have gone to school."

"Oh, right. I didn't realize I overslept,"

Ashley said realizing her blunder. Grabbing the cup, she took a sip of the milk. Then she grabbed a
sandwich and took a bite.



She gave Linda a forced smile.

Linda continued to look at her with concern. 'Something is definitely wrong!' Linda thought. But she
couldn't quite put her finger on it. But she was determined to find out.

At that moment, Linda noticed Andrew coming downstairs.

It was getting quite awkward with Ashley so she breathed a sigh of relief. Now she wouldn't be required
to keep her company.

She immediately left the dining room.

"Are you enjoying your meal?" Andrew asked as he walked in.

Then he noticed she was barely touching her food.

Upon hearing Andrew's voice, Ashley was a little startled.

She immediately put down her cup and walked up to him, tightly grasping his sleeve.

The suit he had carefully put on was now wrinkled.

But Andrew remained silent, knowing it would be wrong to complain. After all, she had been through a
lot.

"Andrew, Dany is our daughter. Let's go and get her back right now, okay? You believe me, right? Dany
can't be Cayn's child!"

Andrew looked at Ashley whose every thought revolved around Dany. She was so obsessed with Dany
that she didn't even care about her own health.



Since he loved Ashley deeply, he couldn't bear to see her in this condition. If her love for Dany could
blind her, he didn't want that child in his life. He knew he was being selfish, but Ashley's miserable state
made him like this.

Knowing that if he expressed his thoughts, she would hate him, he kept it to himself.

Holding Ashley's hand, Andrew walked near the dining table and sat down. "Well, I know. I have asked
Johnny to investigate on the matter. But for God's sake, can you please finish your meal? We can deal
with the issue about Dany later," he implored.

"No, I don't want to eat any more. Let's look for our daughter now, okay? We can enjoy every meal with
her!"

Hearing these words, Andrew finally lost his temper. "Listen to me! If you don't eat your meal right now,
I won't let you step out of this house today!" Andrew had spoken very loudly.

Shocked, Ashley looked at Andrew. It had been a long time since Andrew lost his temper.

'I don't care! I am going to get my daughter!' Ashley thought with determination. She had spent the last
five years without her daughter. But now that she knew she was here, she couldn't let go of this
opportunity. It was absurd to assume she could enjoy her meal under such circumstances.

"If you don't want to come, don't come. I will go there alone!" Ashley said and got up from her chair.

Looking into Ashley's eyes, Andrew clenched his fists tightly and blue veins popped out of his hands.

Damn it!

If he had known this, he wouldn't have let Ashley attend that wedding.



At the moment, his cell phone rang. He didn't want to answer it but the name on the screen forced him
to.

It was Johnny.

"Mr. Lu, the CEO of the Feng Group came here early in the morning and asked us to hand over their
men!" Johnny reported on the phone.

"Just ignore them! Let's see what they can do!" Andrew ordered.

Andrew's tone was harsh and Johnny instantly understood things were bad at home.

Hanging up the phone, he tried to catch up with Ashley who had disappeared.

He thought Ashley was the kind of woman who would act rationally. But today, her behavior told him
otherwise.

She was so driven by her desire to get to her daughter, she didn't know what she was doing. The
matter was more complicated than she thought. Cayn wouldn't hand over the little girl so easily.

Once again, he cursed himself for having attended that wedding. It was the root of all his problems
today.

Watching Ashley sprint out of the house, Chant came to a halt.

There was determination in her eyes.

It looked like she was bracing herself for war.

"What's up? Where are you heading?" Chant asked.

"Grandpa, I am going to get my daughter!" Ashley replied and continued walking.



"And what about you? Why are you following her?" Chant asked Andrew.

"I am going to get my daughter with her," Andrew replied as he finally caught up with
Ashley.
