A Love Trap novel Chapter 139

This was the first time that Ashley had called Andrew "my husband", and it started a surge of desire for her inside him. As the drama unfolded in front of him, he suddenly had an urge to put his arms around Ashley and give her a hearty, tight embrace while having a nice, long snog with her.

"I couldn't agree more. I also think that woman is kind of bitchy. Did you see that she just so affectionately leaned towards my boyfriend when she served our special?"

"The same thing happened to me just now! I thought that she didn't do that on purpose! Who would have known she is such a bitch!"

Taking a glance at that waitress's face, everyone at the restaurant, especially the women, began to discuss her immediately, almost simultaneously.

And suddenly everyone turned hostile against her, showing obvious dislike for her on their faces.

Staring at Andrew who was just sitting across Ashley so peacefully as if nothing out of the ordinary was happening, the waitress became uncharacteristically flushed and visibly annoyed. For the life of her, she couldn't understand how the man could remain so totally unaffected by her glamour or the discussions going on about her.

But despite the irritation she was feeling towards Andrew, she couldn't help but fall deeper and deeper for his handsome face and charismatic aura.

However, Ashley being right in front of her, blocking her total view of Andrew was ruining things.

Eventually getting quite annoyed, the woman pouted and left. Before she fully could, however, she shot Ashley the nastiest glare she could.

That did nothing to Ashley except making her look more protective of Andrew. Only when the waitress had fully gone did Ashley start to move back to her seat. For a few minutes, she sat in silence.

She was deciding whether the behavior she exhibited just then was a little over-reactive or not.

Stealthily, she took a peek at Andrew, and she found that he was still expressionless, visibly not influenced at all by the drama that was started by her. This irritated Ashley as she imagined that Andrew would just allow that woman to fall on him had she not intervened earlier.

This thought caused great discomfort to her. Suddenly, she felt like she shouldn't have stopped the waitress from flirting with him. Perhaps by doing what she did earlier, she had destroyed an opportunity for him to finally have a fling with such a beauty.

With a deep breath, she fixed her eyes on the table.

'Oh, how ironic is it that we got the Lovers Set.' she thought to herself, silently gritting her teeth. She saw two trays that had dishes, drinks and fruits placed in front of them.

The drinks were in dainty and cute couple cups, one pink and the other blue. The fruits were also shaped as a heart, which was outlined with cherry tomatoes and filled in with other delicious-looking fruits.

Also, all the plates, spoons and chopsticks were designed for couples.

Ashley would have enjoyed everything had it not been for what happened earlier. Now, she just detested everything. With all of the things happening, she started to wonder whether she got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.

As she sat there staring blankly, a sound suddenly came from the table next to them.

The sugary and soft voice was from a woman flirting with her boyfriend in a pettish manner. She begged, "Baby, I want that. Put it in my mouth."

Then her boyfriend's deeper voice filled with affection and fondness for her filled the space. He said, "I will do whatever you say, baby. Here, open your mouth. Ah..."

They affectionately fed each other with spoon after spoon of delicacies, and their lips got closer and closer. Soon enough, they started passionately devouring each other's lips.

Seeing that, Ashley immediately steered her eyesight away from them. The scene came as a mental shock for her, and all of her being was startled.

Well, to her surprise, she saw a spoonful of rice right in front of her eyes. It was so near that she could have it if she craned her neck only a little bit.

The hand holding that spoon was fair and slender, and the man who owned the hand was still expressionless, though his gaze upon her was very soft. His eyes were focused on her as if there existed nothing else in the restaurant.

Ashley, though taken aback, was able to say in an embarrassed tone, "Thank you, but I prefer eating on my own."
