Chapter 322 I Have Faith In My Husband
Chapter 322 I Have Faith In My Husband
Johnny didn't know what happened to them. When they were in the hospital last time, they looked fine. It seemed that their relationship was even getting better. He really didn't know what was going on with them today.
Johnny was a bit unhappy with Ashley, and he felt sorry for Andrew. Andrew had been treating Ashley so well. However, he didn't really know how she felt about Andrew.
Raymond was walking over to them. He was Ashley's ex-boyfriend. Johnny knew it wasn't a good time for him to say anything in front him.
So Johnny just replied, "Nothing."
Ashley gazed at Johnny. She was just as confused as he was.
Thinking about what he had said, Ashley got an idea.
Johnny probably misunderstood her. He might be assuming that she was trying to set Lena and Andrew up.
There was no way known that Ashley would push Andrew to a trashy woman like Lena.
In the end, Ashley didn't say anything to Johnny. She had already told Andrew how much she loved him, and that was all that mattered. Nobody else needed to know their private affairs, even Andrew's personal assistant.
As Raymond approached them, he overheard Ashley saying that Andrew was talking with Lena alone in the room.
Raymond knew nothing was going on between them. But he still felt uncomfortable knowing that his fiancee was in the room alone with another man.
So he continued to make his way into the room where Lena was.
However, Ashley quickly walked up and blocked his way. "My dear brother-in-law, where are you going?"
Ashley told Lena many times over to stop calling her "Sis." Lena never listened, though. So Ashley couldn't be bothered correcting her anymore, and she decided to use it to her advantage. As long as she was referred to as Lena's older sister, then they had to be nice to her, at least in public. So, that wasn't such a bad thing for Ashley.
Raymond's face turned gloomy as soon as he heard Ashley calling him that. However, Ashley was right. He was her brother-in-law. So despite how gloomy he felt about it, he couldn't complain.
"I'm going inside to check on Lena. Are you okay with them staying alone in the room?"
Raymond sneered as he looked at her, feeling annoyed.
Ironically, Johnny gave her the same look.
Raymond asked Ashley the same question which he wanted to ask her earlier.
Ashley crossed her arms defiantly and replied, "I'm okay with that. I trust my husband completely. Why shouldn't I be okay with it? I think you might be the one that's not okay with it. Do you have doubts about your fiancee? Hmm, I see... You should know that it was actually your fiancee's idea to talk to Andrew in private. If you just walk in now, you might ruin her plan. Don't you think that she might get mad at you?"
Raymond gnashed his teeth in anger and growled, "What do you mean?"
"I don't think my words were too complicated. You're an intelligent man. Work it out yourself."
Ashley had already pointed it out for him. Whether Raymond got it or not, it wasn't her concern.
After she finished what she said, Ashley pulled her phone out of her pocket and began playing a game. She didn't bother to take another look at either Raymond or Johnny.
In the room, with Ashley finally gone, Lena had some private time alone with Andrew. She could hardly conceal the excitement in her eyes.
She fixed up her clothes and hair and was preparing to get out of the bed.
Lena had planned it very well. She tried her best to control the damage that she might have had after the miscarriage.
She had been resting in bed for a while now, so she had already recovered from it.
Putting her slippers on, she began to approach Andrew, step by step. When she was a meter away from him, he told her in a cold tone, "Stop!"
Everyone in J City knew that the CEO of the Lu Group never liked any woman to get close to him. One meter was the limit.
Lena thought she was different from the other women. She didn't expect that he would stop her.
Lena was in an awkward spot. She couldn't back off, but Andrew didn't allow her to get any closer.
She looked at Andrew with sad puppy eyes and hoped that he could pity her and change his mind.
However, much to Lena's surprise, it didn't work. She was very disappointed. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
There was no exception to Andrew's rule except for Ashley.
Andrew didn't show Lena any sympathy at all. Instead, he felt annoyed and made a frown.
Lena couldn't help but think about how intimate he was with Ashley.
Her face twisted in anger. She couldn't understand why Ashley could get such special treatment from Andrew.
Her jealousy was burning inside her. However, she knew that now was not a good time for her to ruin the moment. It was her best chance to be alone with Andrew. Keeping her pitiful look on, she gazed at him and said, "Andrew, please don't be mad at my Sis. She didn't mean to harm my baby or me. My baby didn't have the luck to see this world. I don't blame her for it."
There were even tears in her eyes when she mentioned her baby. She paused to have a look at Andrew. Then she continued, "I don't have anything to do with the news online. I just found out about it from my mother and mother-in-law's last visit. Raymond accidentally spilled the beans. I don't know how this accident turned into such chaos. But don't you worry. I'll try my best to persuade them to be kind to Ashley. I know that she didn't mean to do it, and I don't blame her. I have forgiven her."
Lena's teary eyes were still on Andrew. Her voice was soft, and her head was low. The hospital gown that she wore was a bit big and loose for her, exposing Lena's lower neck.
It was her way to attract Andrew.
However, Andrew didn't even take a look at her. He was thinking about what Ashley told him earlier during the whole time that Lena was talking.
He didn't hear a single word she was saying.
However, he did catch her last few words. It was enough for him to know what she was trying to do. Andrew knew she just wanted to show him how kind she was for forgiving Ashley, who caused her miscarriage.
Andrew felt repulsed by her. Giving her a disgusted look, he took a step back away from her. In Andrew's heart, Lena was an evil woman and was nothing compared to Ashley.
"Are you done?" he asked impatiently.
Lena raised her head to take a look at him. Then she quickly looked down
and nodded.
Andrew imminently turned around and was ready to leave.
Ashley only told him to stay there and listen to what she had to say about her. So Andrew thought if she was done, then his mission was completed, and he could go.
Lena was completely taken by surprise when she saw that Andrew was about to leave. It stunned her and was beyond what she was expecting would happen.
It took her a moment to recover, and then she quickly ran to him. "Andrew, please wait. You can't..."
She hadn't finished her sentence because Andrew suddenly turned and made her stop. He looked at her without any expression in his eyes and warned, "Andrew is not a name for you to call me."
Lena's face turned red with anger. She was frightened by Andrew's temper and embarrassed by his words.
Andrew didn't make a fuss about it. He didn't have any expression at all. However, it was his lack of emotion that frightened people the most.
Lena bit her lips and thought about what she had done wrong.
She wondered what other names she could call him by since she couldn't call him Andrew. She didn't want to call him brother-in-law at all!
Because she believed that Andrew should be her man. There was no way that she wanted to admit to herself that he was Ashley's man.
However, Andrew's look was too terrifying for her. So she had to change the title for him. "Brother... brother-in-law..."
Andrew's face finally changed and softened. Noticing that his cold glare was gone, Lena asked, "Brother-in-law, is there anything you want to comment on... about... about what my Sis had done? My baby was only small. How could she have..."
Lena bit her lips. The situation was getting out of her control.
In the script that she had replayed in her head, Andrew should care about her feelings and hate Ashley after hearing what she said earlier.
