However, Chant wouldn't say such things, lest he hurt Fabio's feelings.
"They are going to make you a little sister so that you can play with her," Chant joked.
"But Mommy is already pregnant with a little sister, isn't she?" Fabio asked, looking at Chant, confused.
"Well, that's because your sister is still too small," Chant tried to fabricate his story.
"Why is that?" Fabio asked again.
Chant was almost speechless with Fabio's persistence.
He felt like he wanted to scream at Andrew. How could he just disappear all of a sudden after the wedding ceremony.
Andrew left before the wedding ceremony was over. When Chant got back home with Richard, Fabio and Dany, Andrew and Ashley had already vanished into thin air.
In the morning, the next day.
After breakfast, Ashley and Andrew went out of the villa to walk by the sea.
A view of the horizon, where the sky met the blue sea was breathtaking to watch. It was indeed refreshing.
The sun had risen to the sky and the weather was neither cold nor hot. There were already some people on the beach.
Some children were playing and enjoying themselves by picking up shells, while the adults were holding hands, talking and laughing while in groups of twos and threes.
The sound of the crashing waves could be heard, making it feel like it was the most pleasant music in the world.
Ashley liked the ambience of calm and serenity around her, making her feel very relaxed.
The seaside offered a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
When she saw the boundless blue water, all the annoyance and worries in her heart were washed away.
Holding Andrew's hand, she walked on the sand with happy steps.
She wanted to trot along but before she could take another step, Andrew suddenly held her waist.
"Don't run!" Andrew reminded. As if he knew what Ashley was going to do, Andrew looked at her calmly with tenderness in his eyes.
His eyes fixed on her belly with concern.
"Alright!" Ashley agreed with frustration.
She was going to run on the beach for a while, but now it was impossible.
The sea breeze blew on their faces as they walked quietly on the sand, holding hands.
"I miss Dany a little,"
Ashley said gently.
Hearing her words, Andrew frowned and immediately tightened his grip on her hand.
"What's wrong?" Ashley asked, looking at him with concern.
"Don't miss them!"
Andrew snapped.
Ashley kept silent for a second before she burst into laughter. "Are you jealous?" she asked.
But before Ashley could say anything more, she felt something on her lips.
She grabbed Andrew's sleeve and tried to push him away.
It was broad daylight and there were so many people on the beach!
--
But Ashley's strength was not enough to push away Andrew.
Andrew didn't move his lips away for two minutes.
"I am your Mr. Jealous!" he declared aloud. His voice sounded so sexy.
Ashley felt her heart begin to melt.
"Mr. Jealous, you are so sexy!" Ashley said softly.
"I am!" Andrew said, holding her little finger.
At that instant, Andrew suddenly heard the sound of a camera shutter click.
There was someone taking photos behind them.
Before Ashley reacted, Andrew turned his head immediately.
He saw a young man focusing his camera at Ashley.
The young man then looked at the photos he just captured with surprise on his face.
The young man didn't expect that the photos in his camera would look so wonderful.
At that point, Andrew and Ashley walked straight towards him.
The young man looked at the couple with confusion.
He was more than 1.8 meters tall. His golden hair was particularly dazzling, and his skin was very white. He didn't look Asian.
"Delete all the photos right now!"
Andrew ordered as he walked up to the young man.
The young man was startled. He covered his camera subconsciously and looked at Andrew vigilantly.
"What are you talking about?"
The young man spoke in Mandarin, but with a strong foreign accent.
This time Andrew didn't say it in Chinese. He asked the young man to delete the photos in his camera in perfect English.
It was only at that moment that Ashley could figure out the reason why Andrew brought her here.
Was this young man taking their photos in secret?
"No! These photos are very nice. Are you sure you want to delete it?" The young man replied in English with obvious reluctance.
However, Andrew remained insistent on it.
He didn't want anyone to take Ashley's photos without any permission.
