A Love Trap novel Chapter 45

The cafe was quite famous in J City, and tourists never failed to visit the renowned place and have their sip of hot brewed coffees or cold lattes. With a rational architectural layout, the building with three floors was altogether grandiose and classy. Guests on the second and the third floors could clearly see what other people on the first floor were doing.

"Andrew, what are you looking at? Did you hear what I just said?" Bothered by his absent-mindedness, Francis looked at Andrew and shouted at him with a loud voice to catch his attention. However, Andrew kept looking down to the first floor as if searching for someone.

Francis, who had a delicate face with his skin as flawless as a shiny jade and a pair of charming eyes, looked at Andrew helplessly. Curious at what Andrew was looking at, Francis looked down in the direction which Andrew was looking now.

Unfortunately, he didn't find anything unusual happening on the first floor.

Taking a second look and studying the bustling crowd on the first floor more intently this time, Francis noticed the man and woman sitting near the center table on the first floor.

The man was wearing a neat suit with black pants, but his appearance was somewhat beyond description.

Wearing an odd colored dress, the woman also looked weird.

Seeing that Andrew was intently eyeing the couple, Francis was somewhat bothered. He couldn't understand why Andrew was so curious about the couple that he kept staring at them all the time.

Just as Francis was about to say something, Andrew suddenly stood up and said, "Let's just meet again tomorrow!" Without looking back, he hastily left Francis and went downstairs alone.

Surprised and taken aback, Francis sat there and stared at Andrew's receding figure.

He was held speechless and blank at being left alone, and he didn't know what to say at that moment. 'What's the matter with him?' Francis was confused.

On the other hand, Andrew quickened his pace to the first floor. Just as Leo was about to leave the cafe, he noticed a tall man with a handsome face coming to their table.

Leo sensed the man's noble temperament, making it difficult for people to ignore him, so Leo couldn't help but fix his eyes on him.

Dressed in a black well-cut handmade suit and with a towering height that appeared to be 1.88 meters, Leo was overwhelmed by the appearance of the man approaching. He was wearing a cold face, and when he looked at Leo, a strong chill crept through Leo's bones.

Approaching the table, Andrew went straight to Ashley and put his arm around Ashley's shoulders possessively. What he said then shocked Leo.

"Ash? Why are you here?" Then with his eyebrows crossed he turned to Leo and asked, "Who is he?"

Detecting that Andrew was quite crossed, Leo felt the man was so frightening that his blood was frozen stiff.

'Jesus Christ! His look is so threatening, ' thought Leo.

"Ah?" Astonished, Ashley didn't expect to meet Andrew here.

Besides, she didn't expect that he could still manage to recognize her even if she was dressed like this.

She had spent two hours dressing up today, and she had all the confidence that even her best friend, Ellie, might not be able to recognize her. 'How could Andrew recognize me so easily? It is so unbelievable!' Ashley thought.

Flabbergasted, Ashley didn't answer Andrew's question. She was staring at Andrew and wondered why he recognized her so easily.

Upstairs, Francis who had been watching Andrew, opened his mouth wide when he saw the scene.

'What... What the hell? Andrew knew the woman?

Besides, how would he like that woman in such weird clothes?' Francis thought.

He remembered last time when Andrew invited them out for dinner, he asked them how to make a girl love him. 'Does he like the woman downstairs? No way!

Or is it because Andrew often deals with boys that he has a different view about women?

Has he developed a special taste?' Francis continued.

"Ashley?" Noticing that Ashley was lost in her thoughts without saying anything, Andrew looked at her passionately and rubbed Ashley's head gently.

"Well... He is just a friend of mine," Ashley came to herself and explained with a sudden jerk.

"Really? A friend?" Teasingly, Andrew accentuated the word "friend" on purpose as if he wanted to make sure if the man was truly Ashley's friend.

"Yes!" Caught in an awkward situation, Ashley nodded and answered with a firm voice. Strangely, there aroused a sense of guilt in her heart at this moment.
