A Love Trap novel Chapter 15

'Ashley! Ashley! It's always her! She's not your everything! It is possible to still live without her!' she screamed in her heart.

Although Lena felt reluctant to go along with Raymond's request, she had no choice but to pretend to be happy about it.

'Now that he's on a business trip, I can do whatever I want to Ashley, ' she thought with an evil smile on her lips.

Lena picked up her telephone and called her assistant. "Let Rita come to my office," she instructed after she got through.

After she finished giving her instructions, she hung up the phone. She continued to read through the comments, which were, not in Ashley's favor. This news had put her in a good mood.

She basked in the pleasure of any negativity that went Ashley's way. Shortly after, there was a light knock on her door.

"Come in," she said in a cheerful tone. Lena was usually, aggressive and arrogant, but since she was in such high spirits, she was more pleasant and tolerable today.

Rita Chen pushed the door open and asked gingerly, "You wanted to see me, Miss Mu?"

She was dressed in a tight fitting, black, low cut, singlet top with a matching tight, black, short wrap skirt.

She was already 168 centimeters tall and she knew how to take advantage of her height. By adding a pair of three-inch black high heels shoes, she accentuated her long, straight thighs. It was a feast for the eyes of men.

She had an oval face and had delicate makeup on. Rita gave off a sexy, glamorous air to everyone around her.

In the past, Lena would be irritated and scoff at her for dressing like a slut.

However, this time she only knitted her brows at the sight of her subordinate.

She had seen through Rita Chen and knew what her motive was behind dressing like that. 'She wants to seduce my Raymond. Unfortunately for her, she has chosen the wrong person to mess with. I will never give her the chance to go near my fiance, ' she hissed in contempt under her breath.

Lena fixed her eyes on the posts that deplored Ashley and people were actually recommending that she leave the Luo Group. After a moment she glanced up and gave Rita, who was standing opposite her, an admiring glance. She praised, "You've done well."

Rita Chen understood exactly what her superior was referring to. She had caught a glimpse of Lena's computer screen. She smiled, pleased with herself and replied, "I'm flattered, Miss Mu."

"Nonsense, you're being too modest. You're a smart girl and you did a good job," Lena said casually.

"I really can't take all the credit though. If it weren't for you, my plan wouldn't be as successful," Rita Chen replied with a fake coy smile.

Lena read between the lines and caught on immediately with what she was getting at. 'She thinks that we're a team. And if she gets in trouble because of this, she will drag my name through the mud as well.

I must admit she is shrewd, ' Lena brooded to herself.

"Well, that's all. You can leave now. Once I get what I want, I will fulfill my promise to you," Lena concluded, gesturing for her to leave.

"Thank you, Miss Mu," Rita Chen responded before heading straight for the door.

Lena narrowed her eyes and stared at her back wondering if it was wise to have chosen Rita to do the dirty work for her.

Rita Chen was an ambitious woman. She had proven that by proposing to work alongside Lena to kick Ashley out of the Luo Group.

And that was the very reason why Lena had her reservations about her accomplice.

'Hell will freeze over before I would ever let that woman take me down with her, '

thought Lena.
