A Love Trap novel Chapter 120

Andrew thought he had gone too far. 'Just pamper her, in case I never get this chance again.'

Just as Andrew let Ashley go, there was a knock on his door.

Ashley got startled. She quickly sat up on the couch and covered her face with a book. She was too embarrassed to let anyone see her.

Andrew couldn't help but laugh softly at Ashley's adorable antics.

'His voice is pleasant but his laugh is even more attractive.'

Ashley thought, covering her face shyly.

"I am going for a meeting. You just stay in the office for a while. If you need anything, tell Johnny." Andrew told her in a deep voice and then opened the office door to leave.

"B...boss?" It was an assistant who had knocked on the door earlier. It was almost time for the meeting, so he had come to inform Andrew. But Andrew had unexpectedly opened the door and come out without asking him.

"Hmm, Let's go." Andrew glanced at the assistant casually.

He had barely walked two steps when he thought of something and suddenly stopped. The little assistant, who was following him, almost bumped into him. Fortunately, he reacted quickly.

"Boss?" the little assistant asked in fear.

Andrew was a terror in his company.

Andrew was thinking of Ashley and didn't notice the assistant's trembling voice. He thought for a while. "Take some snacks that girls like to my office," he ordered.

The assistant was in doubt, but he said yes obediently.

Andrew resumed walking, and the assistant continued to follow him. He suddenly stopped again. He turned around and frowned at his follower.

The assistant was scared by his boss's angry gaze. He had not done anything wrong. Then why was the boss staring at him this way? And what was wrong with the boss today? He had abruptly stopped twice in a short time.

"Go now!" He shouted, seeing that the assistant didn't do as he was told and followed him instead.

"Ah?" The little assistant looked at Andrew blankly.

Seeing his boss' terrifying eyes, he was suddenly enlightened and replied, "OK, boss. I will prepare the snacks right away." Saying this, the little assistant ran off instantly, as if something was chasing him.

The assistant was confused. He didn't know why the boss had asked him to prepare snacks that girls would like to eat.

'Is there a woman in the boss's office?'

The assistant was shocked by this possibility. It was impossible, so he brushed away this thought.

Who was Andrew? He had been working in the company for so many years, but there was never any woman beside him. And it was rumored that Andrew hated women, so there was no way that a woman would be in his office.

The assistant didn't know that his speculation was, in fact, the truth.

But he didn't dwell on it too much, and took the snacks to Andrew's office. He didn't see anybody in the office. Puzzled, he scratched his head and walked out.

Just as the assistant left, the door to the lounge area in the office was opened and Ashley stepped out.

She had gone in for a wash and had just walked out. She looked composed now and not as awkward as before.

There was nobody else in the office. Ashley sighed with relief and felt much more comfortable.

She didn't know why but subconsciously she felt that her relationship with Andrew had changed after coming back from L City.

'We seem to be closer? And we are in harmony?' Ashley pondered as she sat on the couch and supported her head with her hand. But when she caught a glimpse of the snacks on the tea table, she left her thoughts behind.
