Chapter 84 Andrew Came Back

Facing the man's threat, Ashley didn't show any sign of fear on her face. When the man was about to
say something, the woman beside him tugged his sleeve.

Left with no choice, the man snorted at Ashley and followed his wife to the other side.

The woman didn't say a word until they walked to a quiet corner far away from Ashley. "What are we
going to do? Will they discover what we did to Jenny?" she whispered anxiously after she glanced
around and made sure no one could hear them.

With a serious look on his face, the man gave the woman an uneasy glance. Then he said in a low
voice, "Don't worry. It's not a big deal even if they find out what we did to Jenny. All we need to do is
insist that Jenny blacked out because she ate that cake I bought from the Memory Bakery. They can't
do anything to us."

Although the woman agreed with him, she was still apprehensive.

Frowning, she blurted out her concern, "I don't think things will go on as expected. I have a bad vibe
that something bad will happen."

Casting the woman a disgruntled glance, the man said peremptorily, "That's enough. You're worrying
over nothing. Even if anything happens, I will take full responsibility. You will be safe and
uncompromised."

The woman wanted to say something but swallowed her words at the sight of the displeased look on
his face.

With different thoughts running on their heads, the three waited outside the ward.

Worried as she was, Ellie called up Ashley and asked her whether she needed someone to be with her
at the hospital. However, Ashley refused immediately and asked her to just stay in the bakery and take



care of business.

Ellie was worried sick that Ashley couldn't handle the couple, but the latter reassured her that she
would settle this properly.

The couple together with Ashley had waited about one hour before the doctor walked out. He took off
his mask and looked stern.

Stopping in front of them, he swept his gaze through the three. In a harsh voice, he asked, "Who is the
little girl's family?"

"I'm her father. How is she? Is she okay?" the man replied.

Oblivious of his questions, the physician asked, "You said that she blacked out because she ate some
cakes, right?"

Jittery inside, the woman nodded in confirmation and replied, "Yes, doctor. Jenny lost consciousness
because she ate the cake we bought from her bakery."

Doubtfully, the doctor looked at the couple and said, "There is nothing wrong with the cake she ate.
She blacked out because she took some sleeping pills. Besides, there are many bruises on her body.
The scars are creepy. Why would she get so many scars? Moreover, there is a lot of sleeping pill
residue within her body. It can be inferred that she took sleeping pills more than once."

With the doctor's statements, he stressed out that the little girl's blacking out had nothing to do with the
cakes from Ashley's bakery. What was more, Ashley even got some unexpected information.

That girl had taken sleeping pills and been abused frequently.

"Doctor, are you sure about the results? My daughter did faint after eating their cakes. Besides, we
have no idea about the sleeping pill." Annoyingly, the man insisted on trying desperately to fool others.



The physician threw him a cold glance and responded, "Are you doubting my capability? If you don't
believe me, you can take her to another hospital. I'm sure you'll get the same results."

At the thought of the sleeping pill residue within the little girl's body and the bruises all over her, the
doctor was angry at the man and treated him in an unfriendly manner.

A little vexed at what she had heard, Ashley glanced at the couple with her dismissive eyes before
drawing nearer to the doctor.

"Doctor, could you please give me the little girl's test result? The couple came to my shop and said that
their daughter got sick because of our cakes. So I hope you could do me the favor so I can prove that
our food has nothing to do with the little girl's getting ill," Ashley requested politely.

'She is about at her twenties. Behaving and speaking in a graceful, confident manner. She is a brave
girl, ' the doctor presumed after studying Ashley from head to foot. Putting aside his grave expression
he responded, "Sure. Please follow me."

"Thank you, sir," Ashley said gratefully. She followed the doctor into his office after casting the man an
angry look.

The moment she came out of the office with the little girl's test result, she was surprised that the little
girl's parents were no longer in the hospital. She didn't bother herself with the couple anymore, knowing
that she was free from any liabilities. But after this event, Ashley and the couple became instant
enemies.

Reaching the hospital exit, Ashley called in a taxi and headed straight to her bakery. The instant Ellie
caught sight of Ashley at the entrance, she sprinted towards her and asked nervously, "What
happened, Ashley? Does our cake have something to do with that girl's getting sick?"



"Don't worry. The girl's fainting out has nothing to do with our food. Such things would never happen in
our bakery. The doctor has found a lot of sleeping pill residue inside the girl's body. So I guess they let
the little girl take sleeping pills and tried to put the blame on us," replied Ashley.

Indignantly, Ellie seethed, "They have gone too far. This is between them and us. Why did they get that
little girl involved in it? How could they treat her that way? She is so young and taking sleeping pills in
large doses will be bad for her. What if she doesn't wake up after taking so many sleeping pills?"

"This is over. And the girl isn't in danger anymore," Ashley tried to comfort her best friend.

"Cheryl, please post this on the door. I asked the doctor to give me the girl's test result. This way, I'm
sure the couple will not dare to get us in trouble with their daughter's getting sick again. And people will
know that all of this was the couple's trick," Ashley said to her employee, taking out the report.

Trying to get over the shock, Cheryl moved closer to her boss with a scowling face. Ashley was
amused by her expressions. To dispel her misgiving, Ashley joked, "Are you all right? You're still scared
because of what happened? There is nothing to worry about. Rest assured."

With a nod, Cheryl stared at her and said, "I was freaked out when I saw the unconscious girl."

While tapping her back, Ashley comforted the terrified Cheryl and gave the report to her. The latter took
it and went out to post it in the shop window.

The report drew the attention of many pedestrians. Some smart people realized what was going on at
the sight of it. Apparently, the owner of Teddy Bear Bakery had gotten envious of Ashley's bakery for
they attracted many customers and stole some of his regulars. That was why the couple framed Ashley
up. However, they were not successful and didn't get what they wanted. Luckily, more and more
costumers went to Ashley and Ellie's bakery.



On the contrary, the Teddy Bear Bakery lost lots of its clients after that event. People were smart
enough to judge who was guilty and who was blameless. Despite that, the couple could do nothing to
win their customers back.

As Ashley and Ellie's shop acquired more clients, the two girls got their hands full. But they enjoyed
being busy and loved their craft.

Today, Ashley and Ellie were exceptionally thankful for the smooth flow of the business operations.
Except for that hiccup in the morning, nothing bad had happened that day.

After a hectic day, Ashley and Ellie got home. After a sumptuous meal and a quick shower, they fell
asleep quickly.

The night seemed to fly by so fast as Ashley and Ellie snorted on a deep slumber.

At 11:00 pm, a call woke up Ashley just as she tossed up on the bed to straighten her stiff back.

Slightly miffed, she reached out and hung up the call. However, she was bothered when her phone
rang again, and the ring was longer this time.

Irritated, Ashley turned on the bedside lamp and fumbled for her phone on the bedside table. Without
bothering to open her eyes, she picked up the phone and answered the call.
