Chapter 133 Love At First Sight

"He is that man. I told you that I had sex with him once. I thought we would never have any
relationship, but we somehow met each other again.

It was a love at first sight kind of thing. And then I wanted to get married. By then, we were naturally in
a relationship," Ashley said under pressure.

She didn't want Ellie to know what the Mu family had done to her. It was not that she didn't want to tell
Ellie. She just thought it was better not to let Ellie know about such things.

Everything was anyway in the past. If Ellie knew all that, she would do nothing but worry about Ashley.

"Really?" Ellie looked at Ashley in doubt.

Ashley was calm and collected, not awkward at having told the lie, because they had lived together for
a long time and had known each other long enough.

"Of course it is true. When I broke up with Raymond, I pretended to be calm, but it still affected me.
After all, we had been together for three years," Ashley said, lowering her voice.

Ashley looked away before Ellie could see the expression on her face. But whatever she had said, Ellie
believed her.

Ellie grasped Ashley's hand in both of hers and said, "Alright. I know. It is OK if he treats you well. And I
was worried if you had been tricked, but now, it looks like you are a perfect match."

Ashley was relieved that Ellie believed her. She was afraid that Ellie would ask more questions.

"By the way, Ashley, I need to tell you something."

Ashley raised her head and stared at Ellie, "What's wrong?"



Ellie told Ashley that Andrew brought Brown and Laura to J City and found a good hospital for Brown to
stay in.

Ashley looked at Ellie in surprise. Why hadn't Andrew mentioned that to her?

"That's great! It will be convenient for us to take care of Grandpa and Grandma here," Ashley said
joyfully, once she had gotten over her surprise.

Ashley and Ellie chatted for a long time till Andrew returned.

Andrew and Ashley hadn't talked yet, but they were telepathically connected.

Although they could see and feel the change after returning from L City, they hadn't spoken about it or
expressed their feelings to each other.

Ellie prepared to leave once Andrew had returned, but Ashley stopped her and said, "Ellie, it's late.
Stay here tonight. Stay with me."

Andrew was expressionless, but his unhappiness could be felt.

After returning from L City, he had gotten used to hugging Ashley as they slept every night. He could
only fall asleep with Ashley beside him, but it hadn't lasted for long. Now someone had come to snatch
her away.

Ashley didn't notice Andrew's expression since she was still looking at Ellie.

But Ellie clearly felt Andrew's gaze on her. She hesitated and then refused.

"Grandma is still at home. She is new to J City and I'll be worried about her if she stays at home alone.
I can't stay here tonight."

Ashley answered, "Then you can leave after dinner."



Ellie refused that too.

It was not because of Andrew's threatening eyes. She really had something to do.

Nobody knew if Andrew had already thought of the matter earlier. He had told the driver to wait outside
when he arrived at the villa.

Ashley looked at Andrew, confused, and thought, 'Didn't he drive home himself in the past?'

Andrew appeared calm.

Ellie hadn't thought that Andrew was so possessive of Ashley. Ashley just wanted Ellie to stay one
night, but he wasn't having any of it. Ellie wasn't sure if it was a good thing.

After dinner, the couple went out for a walk. And later, Ashley went back to the bedroom. As she lay on
the bed, she thought about what Ellie had told her today. She was lost in thought.

She was now confused about the relationship between her and Andrew. They were uncertain around
each other, but neither of them expressed anything to the other. It was like a taboo topic between the
two. They were afraid that something they wouldn't like would happen after they made everything clear.

In the past, Ashley had thought Andrew would meet someone he liked after they got married, and she
would then choose to leave with an easy conscience. But now, she realized it might be difficult for her
to quit. Because she found that she was beginning to have a crush on Andrew.

Andrew came out of the washroom to find Ashley lying on the big, white bed, her eyes fixed on the
ceiling. He didn't know what she was thinking.

Andrew blinked, but didn't say anything. He sat down beside Ashley and asked, "What are you
thinking?"



The low, magnetic voice sounded suddenly, scaring Ashley. "Why do you walk like a cat?"

"You were absorbed in your thoughts," Andrew answered.

Ashley couldn't reply. She had actually been absorbed.

"Thank you," Ashley said suddenly.

"Hmm?" Andrew raised his brows.

"Thank you for what you have done for Ellie. You brought Grandpa to J City and found a hospital for
him," Ashley said to Andrew, her countenance serious.

Andrew had never seen Ashley be so serious. He couldn't help but tease her.

"What are you going to do to thank me?" Andrew said softly, moving closer to her and his warm breath
on her neck making her squirm. Ashley moved restlessly.

She was dumbstruck at Andrew's question.

Why was this situation so different from what she had imagined?

Andrew was supposed to have said, "You are welcome. It's no big deal." Why wasn't it like that?

Looking at his handsome face from up close, Ashley was rendered speechless yet again. She blinked
as she tried to focus on him. "What do you want me to do to thank you?"

"Why not-" he began, but before Ashley could react, Andrew got on top of her and pressed against her.

Ashley closed her eyes abruptly and shouted, "What are you doing? I am still a patient. I have wounds
on my body!"



Seeing Ashley blinking in fear, Andrew laughed and let her go. "What's on your mind? I just found
something behind you."

Ashley opened her eyes cautiously and saw Andrew holding something. He stared at her with a faint
smile. "What did you think I was going to do?"
