A Love Trap novel Chapter 880

The moment Ashley saw Jeremy reaching out his hand to her, intending to touch her, she immediately flinched away from him.

Seeing this, Jeremy couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

Not once did he think that Ashley would ever be this distant towards him.

In truth, Ashley still didn't know how to act towards him.

When she avoided his touch, it was almost a reflex from her subconscious. Even when she thought about it right after, she couldn't find a reason why she acted that way.

Jeremy's hand hovered awkwardly in the air, while he was thinking of whether or not he should just draw his arm back.

Seeing him like this, Ashley knew that he was embarrassed. The seconds felt like minutes as they stared at each other with slight discomfort.

Feeling trapped, she turned to Andrew, her eyes asking him the question that was in her mind.

In response, Andrew gave a prompt nod, hinting at her to do whatever she wanted. From the way he looked at her, Ashley knew that Andrew would take responsibility for anything that would happen no matter what.

Luckily, Jeremy had a lot of experience when it came to business. There were multiple times that he had been in an embarrassing situation. Because of this, he was able to quickly regain his composure.

With a faint smile, Ashley flinched her hand back. There was a little bitterness on his face as Jeremy smiled back at her.

"Ashley, I know what happened last night. Don't be afraid. I'm sure you want an explanation, and I can promise you that I'll give you one,"

Jeremy said while looking at Ashley intently.

Andrew deliberately didn't keep this information from Jeremy, so it was only a matter of time before word got out.

Upon hearing those words, Ashley couldn't help but ask the question that had been in her mind even before Jeremy arrived.

"So what are you going to do with her?" she asked.

Jeremy blinked, confused by her question. But when he saw her expectant eyes on him, he knew that he should reply carefully.

The last thing he wanted was to leave a bad impression on her. After all, it was his own fault that he had found Angelina and mistaken her for his missing sister.

"I'll do whatever you say," he replied with a shrug.

Ashley bit on her lip, her eyes wandering over to the side as she thought about what she wanted to be done. Afterwards, she looked back up again at Jeremy. "I want her to leave J City," she finally said. "As far away as possible. Can you do that?"

It took Ashley a lot of consideration to come up with this solution. There was no way that she could let Angelina get away scot-free after everything that she had done.

Besides, Angelina had hurt Dany. Of course, the Mo Family would certainly not let go of Angelina either, and that's another story.

At this point, Ashley just wanted to see whether or not Jeremy would do as she asked.

"Alright," Jeremy said with a nod. "If that's what you wish. But is that really the only thing you want for her? Don't you want to get back at her for all the things she's done? She had hurt both you and your daughter after all."

It was beyond Ashley's expectations that Jeremy would say something like that--implying that sending off Angelina to a far and strange place wasn't enough as punishment.

Jeremy looked at Ashley expectantly, waiting for her response.

From his words, Jeremy already knew who Dany was.

Ever since he had known that Dany was also Ashley's child, he couldn't help but feel much guiltier.

If he didn't make the mistake of identifying Angelina as his sister, perhaps he would have found Ashley sooner, or maybe Ashley would have been together with all her children happily now.

Additionally, Ashley might not have left J City for so many years and would not have suffered as much.

Still, with all this in mind, Ashley couldn't help but feel surprised at how willingly Jeremy agreed to her request.

After a while, Jeremy cracked a smile. "What's the matter? You don't think I'd agree to your request, right?"

"To some degree, yes." Ashley nodded. "She has lived in the Gu Family for so many years and..."
