At that time, Andrew was at the Lu Group building.
Johnny was reporting Ashley's schedule as he stood in front of Andrew.
"Miss Mu went to her cake shop and went back with Miss Su at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. They were picked up by Miss Nan. They're probably home now," Johnny said.
He didn't know whether Andrew was listening to him because Andrew was looking at his phone as he spoke.
What he didn't know was that Andrew was actually looking at a photo of Ashley. The photo was of Ashley asleep, her eyes softly closed and her black hair elegantly resting on the pillow.
Her skin was delicate and fair without any trace of pores. The photo was a lovely capture of Ashely enjoying her peace as she lay in bed.
Seeing that Andrew was a little absent-minded, Johnny prompted, "Mr. Lu?"
Andrew glanced at Johnny and said indifferently, "What?"
Johnny then repeated himself, "Miss Mu is in Miss Su's house now."
Andrew seemed to be in a daze, still he didn't say a word. After a while, he just nodded.
It was dark outside. If one stood in front of the French window, it offered a beautiful view of the city.
It was easy to see the outside world.
This was the highest floor in J City and also the private office of Andrew. Apart from Andrew, only Johnny could enter it.
Johnny was curious as to why Andrew and Ashley had been in a cold war.
'Mr. Lu's been like this for about a week now, ' he thought.
He looked at Andrew and hesitated whether he should ask Andrew or not.
Andrew glanced at Johnny and said, "You can say whatever you want to say."
Johnny then asked, "Mr. Lu, did you have a fight with Miss Mu?"
'Why aren't you home yet? It's already so late! Before, you'd always check your watch until it's time to get off work because you couldn't wait.
It's long past after working hours and yet you're still here and keeping track of Miss Mu, ' he pondered.
Andrew glared back at Johnny. Johnny didn't press further.
Then he said, "Mr. Lu, if you don't need anything else, I'd better get going."
Johnny then left when Andrew nodded.
'Mr. Lu can be so scary sometimes.
I'd better go back home as soon as possible.
Should I ask Miss Mu what happened between them?
I don't know what's going to happen if Mr. Lu continues to behave like this.
Whenever Miss Mu and Mr. Lu quarreled, Mr. Lu would turn into a complete workaholic. The way he was before. The employees are finally able to relax but now, Mr. Lu's making everyone nervous again, ' Johnny thought.
When Johnny left, Andrew's mobile phone suddenly rang. At first, Andrew intended to ignore it.
However when he saw Ashley's name, he was taken aback.
'So, does that mean that both Ashley and Francis are in Ellie's house?' thought Andrew.
He couldn't help but feel jealous. 'I can't even see Ashley but Francis is with her. How can he do that?' he thought.
Andrew had thought of something. He wrote up a message on his phone and sent it, feeling satisfied.
Francis was sitting in the living room. He thought he'd be able to get some alone time with Ellie after sending that message to Andrew. He was surprised by the response that he had received from Andrew. 'What is he trying to say?
