A Love Trap novel Chapter 53

When Ashley and Andrew exited Vineyard Restaurant, it was already dark. But there were bright neon lights and headlights that blazed in the streets. Ashley walked slowly, and Andrew followed her at a polite distance.

All of a sudden, a cool breeze blew.

Ashley was only wearing a dress, and the cold air sent shivers up and down her body. Instinctively, she crossed her hands over her chest and rubbed her arms to keep herself warm.

Suddenly, the smell of sweet tobacco wafted through her senses.

A coat had been draped over her shoulders.

Surprised and baffled, she quickly turned around and saw Andrew's handsome face very close to hers.

He had a well-sculpted and enchanting face, which easily made him stand out from a crowd.

He did not expect Ashley's sudden movement and was caught off guard. He froze, his hands still resting on Ashley's shoulders after placing his jacket over them. His long lashes fluttered, making his deep, inky eyes, glimmer against the neon lights. With a straight face, he clenched his jaw slightly.

At that moment, their faces were so close that they could feel each other's warm breath.

With that distance, Ashley saw that Andrew had such flawless skin that could put Adonis to shame.

As Ashley was lost in her thoughts, Andrew turned away and straightened himself up.

As a result, Ashley's lips gently touched his cheek.

The unexpected "kiss" brought her back to her senses. Eyes wide open in shock, her hands flew up to her mouth in disbelief.

'She looks like a little, panic-stricken hamster.

She looks so cute, ' Andrew thought inside, his heart beating wildly in his chest.

There were so many emotions going through him right now, but he did his best not to show it. Instead, he furrowed his brows and bit on his lower lip slightly, looking more like he was angry.

But the truth was, he was savoring that wonderful moment when Ashley planted a soft kiss on his cheek by accident.

'Her lips were so soft and smooth like jelly, ' he thought.

"Wait here. I'll be right back," he said to the rattled girl in a low, husky voice.

With her hands still on her mouth, she met his gaze and gave a prompt nod.

As Andrew disappeared into the distance, Ashley unfroze and gasped for air.

She had no idea what was going on with her. After that incident, she was so nervous that she didn't realize she was holding her breath all the while.

Glancing at the suit jacket that was now over her shoulder, she hugged it closer to her body and tried to compose herself.

'It was just an accident. Andrew noticed that I was cold. As a gentleman, it was natural that he would take off his jacket and put it on me. I was just caught off guard, that's all.

I shouldn't make it a big deal. It was just an accident..

Besides, it was my fault. He's the victim here, '

she thought, trying to convince herself.

Meanwhile, Andrew was walking to where he had parked his car. His hand went up to his cheek, his finger lightly brushing where Ashley had accidentally kissed him. The memory of her warm lips flooded Andrew's thoughts.

His eyes, which were usually devoid of any emotion, swelled with a softness that had never been there before.

He got inside his car and started the engine, driving towards where he had left Ashley. When she came into his view, Andrew couldn't help but smile to himself.
