A Love Trap novel Chapter 142

Ashley completely lost her balance. 'What's happening! Why do my legs feel like jelly?

Is it because of the scary movie that I just watched? How could that be?'

Her mind wandered off as Ashley struggled to stop herself from falling but to no avail.

Luckily, Andrew swiftly reached out his arms and was able to cushion Ashley's fall.

Lena and Raymond were looking at them.

An obvious distaste flicked over Lena's face. She lost in thought, 'Look at her! How can they do that in a cinema? Ashley agreed to that?

Look, she's so weak! She's even in that man's arms like she can't even stand properly. Look, how weak she is now! Wow, what were they doing?'

Raymond looked melancholic as he watched Ashley. His stomach twisted and turned with all sorts of emotions but he didn't know how to let it all out.

Seeing Andrew wrap Ashley into the arms, he knew she wasn't his anymore. He forced himself from approaching forward.

"Are you okay?" Andrew asked. Andrew gazed at Ashley, concerned. His brows furrowed tightly together.

"I'll be fine. I just need some rest," Ashley said, her face reddening.

She felt so awkward. 'You're so stupid, Ashley! How could you get that scared of a movie? You couldn't even stand on your own!'

When they glimpsed the look on Ashley's face, Raymond and Lena were assured of what they assumed.

If Ashley ever found out about that, she would get mad at them.

Shame on them! What the hell was going on in their mind? Why couldn't they just focus on their work? Instead, they put their attention on those malicious things like that!

Luckily, Ashley didn't know what they were thinking.

"Ashley, are you okay?" Lena asked as if she was worried about Ashley. Her look shifted between Ashley and Andrew as if she was hesitating to say something.

At that moment, the movie had just finished and a crowd of people were suddenly coming out of the same movie house that Lena and Raymond had just been in.

Everyone would notice there were four people standing on their way out. A lot of the people were staring at them especially at Ashley and Andrew.

Ashley frowned when she noticed the crowd. She really didn't want to have this conversation with Lena in public.

"Excuse me, we have an emergency and we have to go now," Ashley blurted out in a flat voice as she looked at Lena, then she grabbed Andrew's hand and left.

She even didn't glance at Raymond before she left, as if she didn't see Raymond.

"Wait, Ashley..." Lena called, startled by Ashley's sudden departure.

"Raymond, why does Ashley..." Lena said as she looked at Raymond, pretending to be sad.

"Oh, Lena, maybe they are really busy," Raymond comforted. He gently stroked the back of Lena's head as his gaze was following the retreating figures of Ashley and Andrew as if he was thinking about something.

Lena felt her insides boil with anger and hatred as she caught the sight of Raymond's gaze at Ashley. She said to herself, 'Why does Raymond still love her even though she's already married? Ashley, you dirty bitch! What the hell you have done to Raymond? Why can't he let you go?'
