A Love Trap novel Chapter 76

Shivers ran down her spine as Lena felt embarrassed after hearing what Greyson had said. Her ever glamorous face grew scarlet red as it flushed with shame. She couldn't help but give Greyson a sharp look.

At first, Lena, who at the instant set her eyes on Greyson, felt a surge of infatuation rising from deep within her heart. She presumed him to be a clever and charming man, and usually, her presumptions never failed her.

Moreover, when Greyson spoke to Ashley, his voice was too soft and inaudible to be heard by Lena. Therefore, Lena had done her silly trick again this time to make people misunderstand the relationship between Greyson and Ashley. Every time they were together in a crowd such as parties or gatherings, Lena wanted so much that everyone would misunderstand Ashley, and look at her as the villain in the story. She hated Ashley so much up to the extent that she would throw mud at her in front of so many people.

However, nobody would have expected that Greyson would give such a remark and turned things around greatly. Everyone was surprised at what he had done.

Those people shopping in the supermarket heard Greyson's words and believed most of what he said.

When they turned to see the fierce look on Lena's face, they found neither gentleness nor delicacy on that beautiful face anymore.

So they all came to realize that they were fooled by Lena's act. This time, the way they looked at her was no longer kind and sympathetic.

Meanwhile, Raymond was totally astounded after hearing Greyson's words. The idea that Greyson called that man his sister's boyfriend kept playing on his mind. However, he was not aware of the deeper meaning behind Greyson's words.

Letting the words sync in through him, Raymond calmed down and thought about it carefully. He would investigate the matter and find answers to his questions. 'Since when did Ashley have such a brother?' Raymond couldn't help asking himself.

With her eyebrows crossed, Ashley was also a little puzzled by Greyson's words. She thought to herself, 'Boyfriend?

Did the two meet? Then when did he see Andrew? What's more, how could Andrew be my boyfriend?' Despite thinking hard, Ashley found no way to get answers to her questions. As she came to herself from deep thinking and raised her head, she noticed the anger and unwillingness on Lena's face and the ironical amazement on Raymond's face.

Likewise, she found those who had blamed her were all turning their heads to condemn Lena. So Ashley just kept her silence and swallowed back all the words she had intended to say. There were noises rising from the crowd. One voice was heard saying, "See? What did I tell you? That girl is not that kind of person. You were just judging her from the scene. You just didn't believe me, then now here comes the truth."

Another person cut in by saying, "When the two girls met each other, that girl was quite pleased and called the other girl affectionately? However, what she said earlier was all against the girl. She seemed to be acting to mislead us to misunderstand the girl on purpose by saying those words.

If she really takes the girl as her sister, how could she say such words?" Then a voice corresponded, "I agree with you. That seems to be the truth."

People around nodded their heads as they tried to remember what had just happened minutes ago.

Some people began to look at Lena with aversion and contempt. They just hated and dreaded such kind of person who was a hypocrite and vicious. She was so ruthless even to frame other innocent people.

"Miss, Sir, we are so sorry to misunderstand you.

We didn't mean that. We just took what that lady said and assumed they were all true. We are sorry if we have misunderstood your relationship," Somebody walked towards Ashley and Greyson and uttered an apology. Then more and more people were ushered by their conscience for such behavior and one by one they went on to say sorry to Ashley and Greyson. They echoed, "Ma'am, Sir, we're very sorry."

Both Ashley and Greyson were overwhelmed to hear the apologies from those people.

"This is not your fault,"

Greyson said. Then he gave a long sigh before saying, "These things happened from time to time. Misunderstanding such as this is inevitable. Every time, as long as this aunt sees my sister, she tends to tell stories leading people to misunderstand my sister..." Lena clearly heard what Greyson said and her face was all distorted out of anger. Her eyes were focused on Greyson, seeming to burn a hole on his body.

While gnashing her teeth, Lena thought, 'Aunt?

How could he call me aunt? Absurd!

I am two years younger than Ashley. How dare him to call me aunt?

While what did he just call Ashley? Sister? How ridiculous!' With a great gloom in her eyes, Lena turned to glare at Greyson. She had no idea that Ashley had such an annoying brother.
