A Love Trap novel Chapter 82

Seeing that the man was so agitated, the seed of doubt in Ashley's mind grew to become solid conviction in her heart in the blink of an eye.

Their cakes never had any quality issues all these days, so how could a girl faint when she consumed them?

Avoiding the perturbed man, Ashley called the ambulance. "Hello, we are now at No. 389, Chaya Road, Bridge Street. There is a girl who fainted after eating a cake..."

She tried to explain the situation to the man on the other end of the line.

But before she could finish, the father of the child rammed into her, knocking her cell phone to the ground.

By now Ashley's patience was wearing thin with this man's repeated interruption.

Shooting a stern look at the man, she decided to give him a piece of her mind. "You claim that your daughter fainted because she ate the cake from my shop. We won't brush off our responsibility in this matter. But we need to call the ambulance to see exactly what is wrong with your daughter.

Why are you repeatedly stopping me from calling the ambulance? Do you really want your daughter to be lying here like this?

You have broken two of our cell phones. We aren't sure whether your daughter's condition is caused by the cake in our shop. If you really think that is the reason, why are you stopping me from calling the ambulance? We aren't avoiding our responsibility for this nor are we denying it. So what are you so agitated about?

And if that is not the case, then my guess is that you have hidden intentions."

Now even the onlookers started questioning the man's actions.

'If the little girl has really fainted only because of Memory Bakery's cake, why don't they call the ambulance first? Don't they care about their daughter's well being?

Moreover, the shop manager clearly wants to shoulder her responsibility, but he isn't allowing her to do so. Why does he keep hurling their cell phones to the ground indiscriminately?

Even if his daughter fell ill because of their cake, why is the man refusing to call the ambulance?'

Onlookers began to whisper among themselves.

"They just want to call the ambulance so that the doctor can diagnosis the problem. Let the doctor come for the little girl. Why does the man get so flustered whenever they try to call an ambulance?"

"There seems to be something fishy."

"Fishy?" The group couldn't help but ask.

A passerby's analysis of the situation seemed to be the most logical and reasonable.

"The man said that he bought the cake yesterday. Then he took it back home and his daughter ate it. If something went wrong, the first thing they would do is take the little girl to the hospital immediately.

Why would they bring her to Memory Bakery early in the morning?"

"It sounds like a reasonable explanation. But why would this man want to do this?
