A Love Trap novel Chapter 303

Seeing that Ashley was about to get really angry due to embarrassment, Andrew stopped teasing her. "All right! All right! You are not jealous. I'm the one who is jealous," he conceded.

She sneered at him, and didn't say anything further.

She knew in her heart that he was right. A man like Andrew, despite his social status, was able to attract many women just with his pretty face.

It was not so surprising for a woman to develop feelings for him. He was such an amazing man. However, no matter how normal it was, Ashley still felt uncomfortable knowing that Lena had her eyes on Andrew.

"If you don't want to see her, you don't have to. You do know that, don't you?" he said softly.

"I do. I just want to see what she wants. Will you come with me tomorrow? Let's see what kind of show she is going to put on for us," she replied.

"Will do."

It was Saturday afternoon, and Raymond and Lena were waiting for Ashley and Andrew to arrive.

Lena said softly, "Raymond, my sister should be here very soon. I already realized my mistake. I shouldn't put blame on Ashley. I am going to apologize to her later and ask for her forgiveness."

Raymond just looked at Lena, and didn't say anything.

He was not as naive as before. He had learned a lot from his father in the business world.

Framing Ashley for pushing her down was not a big deal, but Raymond still couldn't get over the fact that his future wife could have done such an evil thing.

Without getting any response from Raymond, Lena panicked and said, "Raymond, I know I shouldn't have done that. I didn't know what was wrong with me at that day. I was afraid that you still had feelings for her. I just didn't want to lose you. I...I..." Looking at Raymond with her big innocent eyes, Lena was trying to hold back her tears. It seemed that they would roll down her cheeks any second.

She had light make-up on and her hair was loose on her shoulders. A pair of white jade earrings were hanging on her ears. They shimmered with every breath and her white dress made her look even more innocent. Any man would be sympathetic towards her pitiful appearance.

Raymond didn't have the heart to be mad at Lena for anything at this point.

He didn't know if he was mistaken but he somehow felt that Lena was not keeping well. She looked very gaunt. The way she looked at him almost melted his heart.

Lena was rather beautiful. She had arched eyebrows and an oval face. Her lips were lush and full. Many girls would die to have what she had. But she was just not as charming as Ashley.

Due to his business, Raymond couldn't spend much time with Lena.

Although Andrew didn't ruin the Luo Group, it was in serious trouble. As the next successor of the business, Raymond had to go back and help. He had been run off his feet. Seeing Lena was the last thing on his mind.

Telling himself that he was already engaged to her and that he had no chance with Ashley anymore, Raymond decided to spend more time with Lena. He would try his best to fall in love with her and be a good husband.

He closed his eyes to erase all his struggles. When he opened his eyes, something became very clear to him.

He said, "When things slow down, let's get married. Lena, let's have a good life and future together."

He didn't really have any strong feelings for Lena. He didn't hate her or like her. However, they were already engaged so he felt that he should promise her a good future.

Lena refused immediately. "No!" Her voice sounded determined and a bit panicky.

Clearly, Raymond didn't expect this reaction from Lena. He looked at her in confusion and asked, "What do you mean?"

Lena realized that she sounded a bit too shocked and alarmed.

She took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She made up a good explanation. She said weakly, "Raymond, I mean it is a bit too early for us to get married right now. Don't you think? We are still young. There is no need for us to rush into a marriage. We're already engaged. We are going to get married eventually."

She paused to take another look at Raymond. Then, she continued, "I think the most important thing for you is to learn as much as you can from Mr. Luo and try your best to help him manage the business. I have faith in you! You will be very successful in the future. You will be even more successful than your father!"

Lena's words reminded Raymond of Andrew.

With just one word from Andrew, the entire Luo Group almost collapsed.

Raymond agreed with her. His biggest priority right now should be expanding the Luo Group's business. Even it couldn't be as powerful as the Lu Group, it would be strong enough to withstand pressure from them.

He replied, "Good thinking, Lena. You are right! We should help my father grow the Luo Group first!"

Caressing her head, Raymond continued, "I am sorry you have to wait for the wedding."

Lena was relieved, but she didn't show it. Instead, she looked even sweeter and more innocent. "It's okay, Raymond. I understand."

He had no idea that Lena didn't mean a word of what she said. In her heart, no matter how hard he tried, he would never be able to compare to Andrew, nor would his company ever be able to compete with the Lu Group. These two corporations were on totally different levels. They had no comparison whatsoever. The Luo Group would never be as big as the Lu Group.

Lena didn't know what made Raymond agree to her idea.

But she didn't care. She was only concerned whether or not she got what she wanted.

Holding her stomach, Lena was ready to start her plan.

She was going to ruin Ashley's life once and for all.

When Ashley and Andrew walked in, they saw Lena and Raymond looking sheepishly at each other.

Ashley didn't know why but she suddenly felt repulsed.

Andrew coughed to draw the lovebirds' attentions to them.

As expected, they looked in their direction.

Andrew was standing right next to Ashley. Suddenly, he put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her very close. They looked like a loving couple.

Looking at Ashley in Andrew's arms, Lena couldn't help but feel jealous. She felt it should be her in his arms.

She believed that Ashley was unworthy of being married to such an attractive man.

If Ashley could read Lena's mind, she would laugh at her. Whether Ashley was worthy or not of being married to Andrew was not up to Lena. Ashley met Andrew first and he chose her. They loved each other. She was worthy of every bit of his love and affection.

Lena meant nothing to them.

Andrew didn't even give a second look to Lesley, who was the prettiest woman in J City. So there was no way he was going to be interested in Lena.

Ashley was going to crush her dream of being with Andrew.

Andrew's sudden display of affection was just to show Raymond that Ashley was his wife.

Standing up, Lena walked over to Ashley and said, "Hello, sis and Andrew. You are finally here! Please take a seat. What would you like to have for dinner?" Lena was acting like a good little sister. Throwing a loving look at Andrew, she tried to hold Ashley's arm.

Ashley saw what was going on.

She avoided her hand, and she was stunned by Lena's rash act.

Ashley looked at Raymond. She was even more surprised that he would allow Lena to flirt with another man right in front of him.

However, Ashley quickly shook the thought out of her mind. Andrew didn't flirt back with Lena despite her attempt to throw herself at him. So she was just surprised that Raymond would allow Lena to flirt with another man with him watching.
