A Love Trap novel Chapter 329

Hearing Ron's response, Lena clenched her fists. She couldn't believe she heard Ashley's name from her bother too. It seemed to Lena that Ashley was everywhere!

She really couldn't understand what was so good about Ashley, that everyone liked her so much.

"Oh, it was me who called you earlier," Lena said.

Ron was very surprised to hear this, he asked, "What? It was you?"

She nodded.

He was really disappointed, but he didn't show it.

Even though he hid his disappointment very well, Lena still caught it.

Normally, Lena would have made a big fuss about it. But now, she couldn't.

She had a favor to ask Ron so she wouldn't dare to upset him.

He asked, "So, what do you want from me? Why have you come here?"

She replied in a bit of temper, "What do you mean by that? Do I have to have a reason to see my brother?"

He frowned and replied, "Of course not."

Lena realized she was being a bit too pushy. However, it was hard for her to talk to Ron any other way. This was how they talked to each other since they were young. And it was difficult for her to change it in such a short time.

Lena softened her tone. "Let's go to your office and talk."

Ron nodded in agreement.

Lena and Ron walked into his office and sat on the couch. His assistant brought two cups of coffee, then he left the room and closed the door.

The assistant was really confused by the change in Ron's demeanor. He appeared to be really excited when he heard that his sister was here but when he saw her, he didn't seem too thrilled about it.

He shook his head. It was none of his business.

Lena didn't speak right away. So, Ron just stared at her. He never really had a good relationship with her, but it was not too bad either. He did have a better relationship with Ashley compared to Lena.

Ron didn't know why Lena was trying to create trouble for Ashley. He couldn't understand why she was incapable of being nice to her.

He really couldn't comprehend what she could gain from hurting their sister.

It was a tough spot for him to be in. On the one hand, he liked Ashley. On the other hand, he didn't exactly hate Lena. He just wanted them to be nice to each other.

However, what had happened in the family while he was studying aboard really made the situation awful.

No matter what, Lena was his sister by blood and he definitely cared about her.

Taking a sip of the coffee, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Lena looked calm outside, but she was really anxious inside.

Seeing Ron's expression, she figured that he hadn't read anything about her online.

Ron had returned not too long ago and the company required his urgent attention as it was in trouble. He didn't really have the time to surf the Internet. He had to help with the family business.

Peggy didn't want to bother him with Lena's troubles when he came home after a long, hard day at work. Thus, he was clueless about what was going on with Lena and Ashley.

For Peggy, nothing was more important than her son's health.

Lena was really nervous. She didn't know whose side her bother would take.

She was aware of the fact that her brother favored Ashley since they were young.

She thought he should favor her, instead of Ashley! She was his blood sister after all.

She closed her eyes. No matter what, she decided to give it a shot. It was her only chance now. She didn't have any other choice.

Opening her eyes, she said, "Ron, I am here to beg you for a favor..."

She sounded really nice and genuine. It was a very rare sight for Ron.
