A Love Trap novel Chapter 889

Seeing how Ashley was smiling widely, Andrew couldn't help but stretch out his hand and gently stroke her hair.

Without saying anything, he just looked at her, also smiling.

It hadn't even been an entire day since Dany was returned to them, but the mood of the entire family had already been lifted.

In the past, when it was just Fabio and Richard in their home, the family was content and happy. But now that Dany had joined them, she made the family more alive.

As for Ashley, whenever all of her children were by her side, she never felt bored. But after all of them went to school and she would be by herself in the house, she would always feel a little dreary. She thought that she would feel a sense of calm but she just felt nothing but dullness.

"Andy." Ashley walked up to Andrew and held his hand.

"What is it?" Andrew asked before holding her in his arms.

"Can I go and work at my office tomorrow?" Ashley asked while looking at Andrew with expectant eyes.

With that question, Andrew furrowed his eyebrows. He then firmly said, "No!"

"But why? I've only been pregnant for a few months. I can still go to work. You don't have to worry. I'll stop working when the proper time comes,"

Ashley reasoned out while looking at Andrew with a dissatisfied expression on her face.

"Andy, Honey, please! I promise I'm just going to work for two months. I'll stay home after that, I promise!"

Ashley waited for Andrew's response with a serious expression this time.

"Don't bother yourself with that idea anymore. He won't let you go to work. Just stay at home and take care of yourself and the baby."

Chant, who was playing with his phone close to the couple, could hear their conversation and joined in.

She was already delicate even before her pregnancy, let alone now that she was carrying another child inside of her.

It was out of the question for her to go to work during this time.

"Well, there you go. You can't go to the company. You can only stay at home and take care of yourself and the baby." Andrew said while he fumbled with Ashley's hands.

"But there's nothing for me to do here. It's so boring!"

"Honey, here's what I can promise you. Every single day, I'm going to finish my tasks at the company as early as possible so I can come back and spend time with you. How does that sound?" Andrew lowered his voice and whispered in Ashley's ear.

Ashley was rendered speechless.

"Okay, you can go to work now," she said before she withdrew her hand from Andrew's.

After that, Ashley went upstairs by herself.

Chant burst into laughter mercilessly when he saw how awkward Andrew looked.

"Well, it's time for you to go to work then."

"Please take care of her."

While looking at Andrew's receding figure, Chant was amused.

"Really? Ashley, you're pregnant again? This is incredible! Congratulations!" Chloe exclaimed when she received Ashley's call.

"Don't congratulate me just yet. Right now, I'm bored staying at home all day long. I even feel like I'm going to turn into a statue here, you know?" Ashley lay on the bed, feeling worn out.

Chloe laughed on the other end of the line. "Now you can finally understand what I was going through at that time."

"Yes, I know." Ashley nodded even though Chloe couldn't really see her.

Not very long ago, Chloe called Ashley to complain about her pregnancy. Back then, Ashley was even encouraging her. Who knew that after some time, it would be Ashley's turn to be exactly in Chloe's position?

"Okay, okay, I'm not going to tease you any more about it. Let's talk again soon. I only have one hour to play on my phone and laptop every day. Bye-bye!"

Being in such a hurry to say goodbye, Chloe immediately hung up the phone.

Ashley couldn't come to her senses for a while. She just stared into the screen of her phone.

She didn't expect that Chloe would hang up on her like that. Did she say that she was playing games? She was playing on her computer? Or was it her smartphone? It seemed like Chloe thought her games were more important than Ashley!

At the moment, Ashley started to doubt her life.

No one had to tell Ashley when she had the initiative to not play on her phone or computer because she knew that the radiation from the screen was harmful to the baby in her womb.

Back when Ashley was pregnant with Fabio and Dany, she had read a lot about the harmful effects of computer and phone radiation. So she was quite familiar with it.
