A Love Trap novel Chapter 126

Andrew had been worried that he would hurt Ashley, who he was carrying in his arms, if he kicked Carol off, which gave Carol the opportunity to hold his legs tightly.

Andrew frowned. Ashley could feel the fury radiating off of him.

Johnny watched Carol's behavior nervously, cold sweat running down his temple. 'Does Carol even know what she is doing?' he thought worriedly.

But he didn't have the time to consider anything else and he ran forward to draw Carol away from Andrew.

Carol was an arrogant woman who thought that she was different and special to Andrew because she was the only female secretary. And since she seldom was approachable, Johnny didn't like her at all. But now, she had displeased the CEO. If she left now, Andrew would get angry at him. So he had to ask Andrew and Ashley to leave first. He could then deal with Carol.

"Mr. Lu and Miss Mu, you go on. I'll take care of things here," Johnny said politely. Drawing Carol back, Johnny covered her mouth with one hand and trapped her with his other hand so she couldn't move.

Andrew walked Ashley to his office anxiously but briskly, without sparing Carol another glance.

Carol couldn't make a sound, her mouth having been covered. She couldn't move an inch but she still squirmed in Johnny's grasp, letting out a humming sound.

She stared at Andrew's retreating back and couldn't hide her hatred for Ashley from her eyes.

'Why? I've worked in the Lu Group, been his secretary for 5 years, and dedicated myself to working. Although I have a crush on him, I never do anything improper. I should be given some credit for hard work.

Why did he fire me just because of this? And even more merciless was when he said that no other company should hire me! What a cruel person! I can't bear it anymore!' Carol thought indignantly.

Johnny didn't let go of Carol until he couldn't see Andrew. He didn't show Carol any sympathy because he had warned her that Ashley was the person Andrew cared the most about. But she had dared challenge Andrew's authority by hurting Ashley and brought this situation upon herself. It was her own doing and no one could help her now.

"Are you leaving the Lu Group by yourself or should I send you away?" Johnny asked, frowning, as he saw Carol's embarrassment.

His words irritated Carol. She raised her head, glowered at him, and shouted, "No! I'll never leave the Lu Group! If there's anyone who should be leaving, it's her. Not me. I'm Mr. Lu's only female secretary. No one can replace me! I'm special to him. And how dare you treat me like this! Mr. Lu will not let you off that easily!"

Johnny didn't take her words seriously.

"It's my business whether Mr. Lu lets me off or not. You please just take care of yourself," he said. Saying thus, he picked up the phone and called security. Several security personnel made their way to where they were standing.

Carol didn't realize that Johnny really meant what he said until she saw them. Stepping back, she pointed to Johnny and screeched, "Johnny, for the love of God, we have worked together for so many years, why are you being so heartless?"

"Heartless? Me? Carol, why do you say that? I'm following Mr. Lu's orders. It's my job," Johnny said, an impeccable smile on his face.

"She isn't a Lu Group employee any more. So just do your job," Johnny told the security personnel.

They nodded and prepared to haul Carol out of the building.

"How dare you! I'm Mr. Lu's secretary. Do you have a death wish?" Carol said sharply, as they loomed over her.
