A Love Trap novel Chapter 47

It looked like he had no choice but to marry that fat Miss Li. Unfortunately, he didn't even get a chance to ask Andrew for help due to this unexpected "situation".

After lost in thought for a second, Ashley had finally snapped out of her reverie. She pushed Andrew aside and walked away in a huff, wiping her mouth furiously.

How dare he kiss her!

How dare he!

Besides, he had a fiancee, didn't he? Why was he still after her?

Just as Ashley was about to leave, Andrew immediately dragged her back by her hand.

"Let go of me!" She demanded. Staring at him coldly, Ashley tried to fathom why he did that to her.

Andrew silently gazed at her, and set his mouth in a hard line.

Looking deep into his brooding eyes, Ashley sensed a certain sadness in them.

'Sadness? How could that be? That is impossible. After all, I am the one who was offended by his actions, ' she thought.

"You're mad at me, aren't you?" Andrew asked softly, already knowing what her answer would be.

"No, I'm not." Ashley answered, rolling her eyes unwittingly.

"Why?" Andrew persisted not believing her.

Ashley knew he wasn't convinced with her reply and wanted to know why she was angry with him.

'Wasn't it obvious to him? Everyone else could figure it out, ' she thought to herself.

"Stop asking me why! What exactly do you want from me? Just let me go!" Ashley was getting more pissed off, looking at his incredibly handsome face.

Choosing not to respond, Andrew stubbornly continued to gaze at her, refusing to let her go.

"Anybody would be annoyed if someone kissed them without their consent, don't you think?" She had no choice but to answer him.

But she had no idea why he insisted on getting an answer.

"I thought you would like it."

Andrew replied in a barely audible voice, but Ashley heard it clearly, and it stunned her. 'Why would he think that I like the kiss?! Why did he assume that it was all right for him to act on his own judgement without considering the other person's feelings?' Ashley wondered.

Andrew was baffled. He didn't know what was wrong. He had only done exactly what Francis had advised him to do.

However, what he didn't know was that the reason women dated Francis was not for love but for prestige and fortune. Their relationships were all about material pursuits not compatibility, love or affection. That was why they were always one-night stands. So Francis was no expert on matters of the heart, and obviously Ashley was not like those gold-diggers.

What was more, as far as Ashley was concerned, she and Andrew were just strangers.

Realizing she was upset about what he did, Andrew swore to himself to get even with Francis someday for his stupid suggestions.

...

After what seemed like an eternity in each other's arms, Ashley was reluctantly dragged into Andrew's car. He was taking her to dinner whether she wanted it or not.

By now Ashley knew how stubborn Andrew could get and how eager he was to spend time with her. Despite knowing this, she really wanted to escape from him.
