A Love Trap novel Chapter 879

After ending the call, Ashley held Andrew's phone in her hand and looked ahead. Nobody knew what she was thinking, but her eyes had become dull.

At this moment, Andrew had already opened his eyes and was looking at her.

Ashley didn't know that Andrew was already awake when she answered the phone.

He had heard their entire conversation, and he recognized the voice from the other end of the line.

"What are you thinking now?" Andrew asked softly as he held Ashley in his arms.

His voice seemed to have brought Ashley back to her senses. She glanced at him then looked away, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Did I wake you up?" she asked.

"Nope," Andrew replied, shaking his head.

He was a light sleeper, so even the slightest noise or movement could wake him up.

"You just woke up?" Ashley asked again.

"Yup.

Who called?"

Although he already knew, Andrew still asked. He wanted to hear the confirmation directly from Ashley.

Ashley fell silent for a while.

After a few minutes, she answered, "It was Jeremy."

She still couldn't call Jeremy, her older brother. Until now, she had not yet wholly accepted the fact that they were siblings.

"Did you tell him where we are?" Andrew asked.

"Yes."

Ashley turned around to look at him and added, "By the way, where is Angelina now?"

"Why?"

"I just want to ask her something. She almost had me and my baby killed last night. I can't just let it pass," Ashley replied.

"Don't worry. I won't let her go. I told Johnny to lock her up. After you get better, you can go and see her," Andrew said as he stroked Ashley's hair gently.

"Okay."

All of a sudden, Ashley seemed to have thought of something.

Feeling uneasy, she tugged Andrew's sleeve and asked, "Do you think Jeremy will intercede for Angelina?"

She was Jeremy's real sister, but she couldn't help feeling hesitant. They had never spent that much time together.

Angelina on the other hand, was not Jeremy's biological sister, but had been with Jeremy for a long time. Ashley was worried that Jeremy would take Angelina's side.

She didn't know what she would do if Jeremy tried to protect Angelina.

At that moment, Ashley fell into deep thought.

Her heart was filled with misgivings.

She didn't know why she felt uncomfortable about it.

Maybe because she still wasn't totally convinced that she was really Jeremy's biological sister.

She thought about all those years that Jeremy and Angelina had a close bond as brother and sister.

Ashley looked at Andrew. She couldn't hide the uneasiness that she felt.

"Don't worry about that. Jeremy won't protect Angelina," Andrew said as he held Ashley's hand and squeezed it gently. It was his way of reassuring her.

Andrew and Jeremy knew each other very well.

Growing up together, they were the best of friends.

Although Jeremy looked gentle, friendly, and polite, he also had a cold-blooded side.

He would never tolerate anyone who did evil things.

Andrew was confident about that.
