A Love Trap novel Chapter 96

Ashley was worried about whether she needed to wake up early everyday from now on so that she could have enough time to walk to the bakery shop, but it was quite far away from where she was staying.

Upon thinking about that, she couldn't help but feel helpless.

But luckily, though this villa was a little bit isolated, she could find all she wanted here, such as fresh vegetables and fruits in the fridge.

When night fell, Ashley still didn't know if Andrew would be back or not. Although she didn't know who Andrew really was, she was able to guess that he was in charge of a company, as he was always busy dealing with business-related things.

Being bored out of her wits, Ashley decided to make dinner despite not knowing if Andrew would even come home.

Upon entering the kitchen, she became very impressed. It was very clean and everything was new. All the essentials were also there.

Ashley prepared the rice first. She added some rice to the cooking pot, rinsed it, poured some water into the pot and let it simmer in the rice cooker.

Since there were lots of meat and vegetables in the fridge, Ashley took out some pork ribs and Chinese yams. "I'm gonna make a pork rib soup," Ashley happily whispered to herself.

In all fairness, she was enjoying herself.

After she finished cooking the soup, she took out some tomatoes, eggs and vegetables from the fridge and got ready to make more dishes.

First, she washed the tomatoes and cut them into pieces. After that, she cracked the eggs into a bowl and stirred them.

Patiently, she rinsed the vegetables to make sure they were clean.

Ashley was so concentrated on what she was doing that she didn't realize that Andrew was home already.

It was said that when men were busy doing something, they were very charming, the same as women, when they were concentrated on doing something, they seemed very attractive as well.

In order to be with his wife, Andrew drove at the highest speed allowable straight home from work. He even ran a few red lights to lessen his travel time.

When he opened the door, though, silence welcomed him. For some weird reason, he thought that Ashley had already left. But he still looked for her around the house and was so surprised when he found her in the kitchen, cooking dinner.

Leaning by the kitchen door, Andrew couldn't keep his eyes off her. At that moment, he got a strange feeling that he had never felt before.

He suddenly felt anxious, fearing that this thing might be out of his control one day. Such a feeling worried him a lot, as he was so used to having everything under his control.

However, he wasn't antipathetic towards this feeling. Instead, he felt curious.

Before, he felt so alone every time he came back to this villa. He even preferred to stay in the office rather than go home. But now, with Ashley in the house waiting for him and cooking him dinner, he started looking forward to going home.

The home which belonged to the two of them. Oh, how much Andrew wished that he could freeze time and make the moment last forever.

As Ashley was too focused on what she was doing, she unconsciously spilled some of the soup she had in her ladle as she was taking a sip out of it.

The soup was very hot, and it immediately became apparent in Ashley's expression.

"Jesus!" Ashley screamed. She dropped the ladle, and her hand turned red and became swollen immediately.

When Andrew saw what happened, he scurried to Ashley's side.
