Chapter 125 Fire Her

"Andrew, my body aches." Ashley was relaxed as Andrew held her, but her thighs hurt as if they were
burnt.

Andrew's expressionless face changed as he heard that. There were panic, worry, and regret on his
face.

When Andrew told Johnny to look for Ashley, he felt his heart beating fast, as if something bad would
happen, and that made him restless.

He left his work behind and came out to look for Ashley.

The moment he turned that particular corner, he saw that Carol had something in her hand and was
about to touch it to Ashley's face.

Andrew's heartbeat had sped up at the sight. His feet were on autopilot as he ran to stop what was
happening to Ashley and kicked Carol away.

And now that he heard Ashley saying that her body ached, he was obviously worried, and feared that
she had gotten injured in multiple places.

"Which part aches?" Andrew asked, his voice coming out stiff and strangled.

Ashley moved her thigh. Andrew looked down and found that the bottom of Ashley's white dress was
stained with coffee and her fair-skinned thighs were red.

Andrew looked at the injury and wanted to touch it, but he was afraid it would hurt Ashley. He pursed
his lips, power and fury radiating off of him.

He carried Ashley to his office, flipping out his cellphone and making a call on the way.



Ashley was quiet and lay obediently in Andrew's arms.

Carol looked up as Andrew took Ashley in his arms and was about to leave.

As she took in the sight of Andrew's arms around Ashley, her eyes flared with jealousy. She was so
close to destroying this woman's face. Why did the boss have to come here at this time?

Andrew kicked at Carol mercilessly and her face twisted with the pain.

Carol moved to Andrew pitifully and said, "Boss, it was her. You told me to get some coffee for you, but
she ran into me and spilled the coffee all over the floor!" Carol pointed at Ashley and continued, "I didn't
blame her, just asked her to apologize, but she didn't. What's more, she abused and cursed me!" Carol
pointed again at Ashley.

"Andrew, I didn't..." Ashley said, her voice trembling. Carol's false claim was making her emotional. She
raised her head, wanting to explain to Andrew, but he just drew her back.

"What did she say?" Andrew suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Carol was pleasantly surprised. She knew it. How could her boss be seduced so easily?

And that too, this woman? Carol was Andrew's only female secretary and in her opinion, this made her
special to Andrew, even if it wasn't actually the case.

She knew what kind of women men liked, so she pretended to be weak and miserable in front of
Andrew. "She cursed me. She has said that you are hers, and that people like me don't deserve to
think of you. And she also said that you wouldn't drink the coffee I gave you, and that you would only
drink the coffee she offered." Any other man would believe Carol, given her expression and the tears
forming in her eyes.



Ashley couldn't stay peacefully in Andrew's arms after hearing what Carol had just said. When had
Ashley said that? Ashley struggled, trying to get out of his grasp and wanting to make an explanation to
save her dignity. But she didn't dare move after Andrew shot her a glance.

Andrew cast a cold glare at Carol and asked, "Are you done?"

Carol couldn't understand why Andrew was asking her such a question, but looking at his furious face,
she thought he would punish Ashley for her.

After all, she had been the only woman among Andrew's secretaries for so many years.

And she had always thought that Andrew saw something special in her. Or why would she be the only
female secretary in the whole company?

In fact, Carol was overthinking. Andrew had kept her in the company only because she was capable
and not because of any ulterior motive.

But right now, Carol had never thought that she would be chucked out of the company because of her
conflict with Ashley today. What was worse, if that happened, no other company would dare hire her.

"She is my woman. She can do anything she likes. You are not qualified to question her or comment on
her!" Andrew said coldly, his glare boring into Carol.

Carol stared at Andrew blankly, disbelieving of what she was hearing from her boss. This was the
longest sentence Andrew had ever spoken to her, but these words were crueler than anything else.

Carol had been joyfully expectant just moments ago. But now, she was disappointed and embarrassed.

"Boss?" After Johnny answered Andrew's phone, he ran back as fast as he could. He saw Carol sitting
on the floor and looking at Andrew in disbelief, while the boss held Ashley in his arms.



He was startled. He was clever and could guess what had happened from the scene before his eyes.

"You deal with this woman. Remember, I don't want to see her in the future. And I hope no company
will employ her," Andrew said indifferently to Johnny, holding Ashley close to him.

Johnny was stunned at Andrew's emotionless command. "Yes, boss," he said.

This was the first time Johnny had seen his boss become this furious in all the years he had worked for
him.

Andrew would not only fire Carol but also tell other companies not to hire her. He was obviously driving
Carol to desperation.

If the Lu Group fired Carol, no other company would dare go against the decision and employ her. It
meant that even if she wanted to, she couldn't work in this field in the future.

"No! No! Mr. Lu, You can't do this to me! You can't be so cruel to me!" Carol said, coming to her senses
and moving to hold Andrew's leg tightly.

"Mr. Lu, it was her. It was all this woman's fault. She dashed to me first. Why don't you punish her?"
Carol wasn't as arrogant as before. Now her hair was messy, and the makeup on her face was ruined.
She looked ferocious but desperate.

"Get out!" Andrew wrinkled his brows when Carol had rushed to him. A strong perfume smell had
assaulted his senses.
