Chapter 904 The Changes In Her
Chapter 904 The Changes In Her
All of a sudden, someone held Ashley from behind. Almost instantly, she was enveloped by a familiar scent.
With a smile on her lips, Ashley turned around. Sure enough, it was Andrew. "Where are we?"
'Can he stop taking me to different places when I'm sleeping?' Ashley quietly thought to herself. If he were to do this a few more times, Ashley was almost sure that she was going to have a heart attack even if she didn't have any heart disease.
"Next time, please don't scare me like this."
"You're scared?"
"What do you think?" Ashley raised her eyebrows and complained, "Place yourself in my shoes. If it had been you who were to wake up and found yourself in a completely different place, wouldn't you be frightened?"
Andrew wanted to respond that this kind of thing would not happen to him.
But when he saw the disappointed look on Ashley's face, Andrew immediately decided that he'd better admit his mistake.
Andrew gently placed his head on Ashley's shoulder and said in a very apologetic tone, "I was wrong, Ash. Please forgive me."
At that time, he didn't think too much about his decision. He just saw Ashley sleeping so soundly on the bed and didn't have the heart to wake her up. So he didn't have any other choice but to do what he did.
"Well, I didn't mean to blame you." Ashley held Andrew's hand.
She just wanted to tell him that she wouldn't like it if he were to do it again.
Andrew held Ashley's little finger and tenderly smiled.
"Are you hungry? I'll take you out for breakfast."
"Yeah, let's go." Ashley nodded at him.
At that moment, Andrew and Ashley were already back in J City, but they hadn't gone back to the Golden Palace.
They were staying in another one of Andrew's properties in the city.
Of course, a man of his stature had a lot of other houses.
Nonetheless, Andrew and Ashley had made the Golden Palace their place of residence all this time.
After breakfast, the two walked out of the restaurant together.
It was in the middle of December, so it was a little cold outside. People were dressed in thick layers of clothing to stay warm.
When Ashley came out of the restaurant, she immediately felt cold.
Noticing this, Andrew took off his coat and placed it on top of Ashley's shoulders. "Let's go."
"Take back your coat and put it on. I'm not that cold," Ashley said, trying to give the coat back to Andrew.
Without his outer jacket, Andrew was only wearing a suit as usual. He would freeze if he didn't take back his jacket.
"Don't take it off!" Andrew's voice was firm and somewhat intimidating.
Meanwhile, Ashley's hands were held by his. She immediately noticed that his hands were a little cold.
In the end, Ashley gave up and didn't take off the coat.
The two of them walked all the way to the parking lot. When they were about to get in the car, Ashley suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Andrew took Ashley's hand and looked at her with a confused expression on his face.
While shaking her head, Ashley explained, "It's nothing, don't worry. I just thought I saw someone we knew."
"What? Who?" Andrew pulled Ashley into his arms.
'Did she really see someone?' Andrew thought to himself.
Even if she did see an acquaintance, he wouldn't let her walk over to that person and say hello!
"It was... Angelina," Ashley slowly uttered.
Her eyes followed that person.
The woman was no longer as arrogant as before. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Ashley wasn't surprised to see her this way. After all, she offended Andrew and Cayn at the same time.
Moreover, the two men were not to be messed with. They must have made sure to make her suffer.
Angelina was dressed in a somewhat shabby dress. Ashley couldn't figure out where she got it from. When Angelina walked past Ashley and Andrew, she didn't dare look at them.
She lowered her head, as if she was afraid of running into someone.
If it were in the past, Angelina would look at the people around her with an aura of superiority and confidence.
But now...
It was the first time that Ashley saw her looking rather humble.
Ashley quietly looked at Angelina without any sympathy in her eyes.
After all, Angelina was a very vicious woman. She had done so many despicable things that could have placed her in jail for life. One of those was hurting an innocent little girl.
Therefore, Ashley could not help but think that Angelina deserved everything that had happened to her.
"Let's go,"
Andrew said after standing in the same place for a while.
Except for Ashley's, Andrew had never remembered anyone's name. However, Angelina had left a deep impression on him because of everything that she had done. It all made him remember her name.
"I actually want to talk to her,"
Ashley said while she gently pulled Andrew's sleeve.
"No," Andrew refused without hesitation.
Since Angelina had caused a lot of trouble in their lives, he couldn't let Ashley get any closer to that woman ever again.
If something were to happen one more time, Andrew might not be able to control himself. He couldn't even imagine what he would do.
"You can just stand behind me. I swear that I just want to talk with her for a little while. It won't take long."
Ashley looked woeful while staring at Andrew.
Andrew didn't say anything, but to Ashley, it meant that he wasn't forbidding her from going anymore.
Ashley happily looked at Andrew.
With her head still lowered, Angelina could feel that someone was approaching her. Without thinking too much, Angelina increased the speed of her pace.
She didn't even raise her head, as if the former high-spirited Angelina had long disappeared.
After all, not many people could emerge from Cayn's brutality unscathed.
Rather than saying that she escaped, it was more accurate to say that Cayn released Angelina on purpose.
He did this in order to see her desperately struggle for the rest of her life.
Angelina had thought that the person following her would stop.
However, she soon found out that no matter how fast she walked, the other shadow behind her would never leave her alone.
"Angelina." Soon enough, a familiar voice called her name.
Almost subconsciously, Angelina raised her head. She turned and looked straight at Ashley who was standing in front of her.
"Why are you here?" Angelina couldn't help but ask.
"Why can't I be here?" Ashley rhetorically asked.
When Angelina saw Ashley, she seemed frightened and was about to leave in horror. Ashley didn't know what she was thinking of.
So, she just stood in front of Angelina to stop her from leaving. With a frown, Ashley asked, "What's wrong? You want to leave as soon as you see me?"
Angelina didn't say anything in response. She just didn't want to see Ashley anymore. She wanted to bolt out of there without looking back.
To make it worse for Angelina, she saw Andrew standing behind Ashley. Instantly, she was even more scared.
She looked like she had been caught doing something she shouldn't do. A lot of unfortunate memories came to Angelina, making her want to leave in a hurry.
Although Angelina didn't get her chance to do what she wanted, Andrew was successful in teaching Angelina a lesson for even having the audacity to think of hurting Ashley.
In that period of time, Angelina suffered so much, even thinking that she even thought she was in hell.
It was not easy for Andrew to release her, but Angelina didn't expect that she would be caught by someone else.
After torturing her for some time, Cayn let her go as if nothing had happened.
Angelina wasm't expecting to meet Ashley in that place. How smaller could the world get?
The last person Angelina wanted to see right then was Ashley. Whenever she saw this woman, Angelina would subconsciously think of what had happened to her.
Angelina took a deep breath and tried not to look at Andrew who was still standing behind Ashley. "If you have something to say, just say it," she impatiently said to Ashley.
While doing so, Angelina sarcastically looked at Ashley.
'This woman is so arrogant because she has Andrew and Jeremy to protect her. If it weren't for them, would she be able to act like this?' Angelina thought to herself.
Angelina had never realized that the reason why she dared to harm Ashley was because Jeremy was on her side.
Ashley just stared at Angelina in silence. If she didn't remember how Angelina looked, she probably wouldn't have recognized her. Because now, there was a world of difference between the Angelina in front of her and the Angelina who did all sorts of things to hurt her.
"I just want to ask you, do you regret what you have done to me?" Ashley faintly asked.
"Regret? You're kidding me, right? Let me tell you the truth.
I don't regret it at all! I hate you! Ashley, every single unfortunate thing that happened to me was because of you. If it weren't for you, things wouldn't have ended up like this! Why don't you go to hell?"
Angelina glared at Ashley while raising her voice. With her eyes getting red, she looked as if she had gone insane.
Nonetheless, she firmly believed that what she said was true. Whether it was with the Li family or the Gu family, Angelina carried out her plan smoothly.
Moreover, when she went to the Gu family, they thought she was the real Camelia and treated her very well.
The only hindrance to her plan was Ashley.
Andrew pulled Ashley behind him and looked at Angelina quietly.
His gaze intimidated Angelina for no reason.
Although Angelina dared to raise her voice at Ashley, she didn't have a bit of courage to even whisper anything to Andrew.
While looking back at him and his stare, she felt chills all over her body.
"Let's go,"
Ashley said while pulling on Andrew's sleeve.
"Okay."
Andrew took Ashley's hand and left without looking at Angelina.
Ashley knew that Angelina was no longer a threat to her.
Everyone wanted to stay away from Angelina. Even though some were her friends or acquaintances, no one wanted to be associated with her.
They were afraid that Angelina would do something malicious to them as well!
After Angelina had kidnapped Ashley, everyone in J City knew all of the details about it, including the fact that she was an impostor.
