A Love Trap novel Chapter 49

Ashley calmly looked at Raymond and spoke indifferently, "Leave? Why should I leave? How do you know whether I can afford to dine here or not? Besides, it's none of your business." Ashley refused to accept Raymond's suggestion. Instead, she thought Raymond's words were rude and degrading.

"Ashley, don't be so stubborn. Do as what I said and go back. You really shouldn't have come to this restaurant. If you really want to have food at this restaurant, I will bring you here next time."

Raymond was hurt by Ashley's words. 'It seems that Ashley still hasn't forgiven me.'

Raymond then tried to persuade Ashley to leave in a soft tone.

Ashley couldn't believe that Raymond would say such things to her in that tone. After all, his fiancee, Lena, was standing by his side.

Even though Ashley would like nothing more than to see Lena upset, this was not the time nor the place to create a scene.

Ashley couldn't understand why Raymond was treating her so kindly and tenderly, when they had broken up a while ago and he was now engaged to Lena.

Just as Raymond was about to hold Ashley's hand, Andrew had quietly approached them. And before Ashley had time to react, he held her in his arms.

He gave Raymond a cold stare and said in a low threatening voice, "Ash is my girlfriend now. Please, keep your hands to yourself. By the way, haven't you noticed that you are offending Ash? So, stop talking to her!"

When they stood side by side, the comparison between Andrew and Raymond was obvious.

Raymond was a tall man, however, he was dwarfed in size when he stood next to Andrew, who was much taller than him.

And, the temperament of Raymond couldn't be compared to that of Andrew.

If Raymond was seen as a man born into a rich family. Then Andrew could be seen as an aristocrat from a noble western family. His temperament and behavior showed his majesty, nobility, elegance and indifference.

If Johnny were here at this moment, he would have been surprised by Andrew's words. He would definitely wonder whether this man was an impostor, since he had never heard Mr. Lu say so many words to another.

Everyone was stunned by what Andrew had said.

Lena quickly came to her sense and gloated over the conflict between them. But when she leaned across to glare at them, she found the man holding Ashley in his arms very handsome. And Lena immediately became jealous.

'Although this man's family background isn't as good as Raymond's, he is so handsome. Why would he be in love with Ashley?' thought Lena.

Raymond couldn't believe what he had heard.

He felt devastated when he heard what that man had just said and when he looked at Ashley snug in that man's embrace, he had a lump in his throat.

He was so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe.

'No!

It can't be true!

How could she be in love with him?' thought Raymond.

Ashley, who was being held in Andrew's arms, was also shocked by his words.

'When did I become his girlfriend? Why don't I know about this? How can he hug me in front of so many people?'

With that thought in mind, Ashley slightly wriggled and wanted to get free from Andrew's embrace.
