Chapter 128 A Funny Thing

Johnny nodded calmly, watching Francis leave.

Even though he was Andrew's close friend and private doctor, Francis always spoke rudely to him.

Despite this, he cared deeply about Andrew. When Andrew got into trouble, he was more worried than anyone else.

Ashley and Andrew were alone in the office after Francis left.

Andrew applied the ointment on Ashley's thigh. She couldn't help but pull back at his touch.

Andrew's hand was cool, like a piece of jade, and his fingers were fair and slender. However, there were some calluses on his fingers, which might be a result of his frequent use of pens.

As he applied the ointment on Ashley's thigh, he inevitably touched her smooth and white skin. The calluses on his fingers lightly pricked her skin.

Only a small area of her skin was scalded. Ashley thought he would finish applying the ointment quickly so she just waited quietly.

But Andrew did it so slowly and carefully. Half squatting, he gently rubbed her scalded skin, as if it was a very precious, delicate thing.

Ashley was little nervous and could feel her heart thumping in her chest.

Her face was flushed in embarrassment. She looked away quickly.

She even ignored the slight itching on her thigh.

"It's okay." It was a long time before Andrew stood up.

His suit looked a bit rumpled; perhaps from carrying her in his arms earlier.

Ashley looked at her dress and frowned. She felt embarrassed about her appearance, especially when she saw the stain on the hem of her dress.

She struggled to stand up by supporting her hands on the sofa. She wanted to go into the lounge to change into a clean dress, but no sooner had she stood up than Andrew held her.

"Where are you going?" he demanded, pursing his lips.

Ashley replied a little awkwardly, "I just want to get changed."

Andrew simply stared at her blankly without saying a word.

Finally, Ashley went to the lounge and got changed. She wore a pink dress,

d woman.

"Really? Where is he?" a handsome young man asked in surprise, elbowing other employees.

Seeing that Andrew was holding a woman in his arms, the young guy breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Well, since our president likes women, I'm safe."

All the employees looked at him in disdain, as if they were looking at a fool.

'Even if our president liked men, he wouldn't like someone like you, ' they thought.

"Don't look at me like that! Have you ever seen anyone as handsome as me? It seems that you really don't have an eye for beauty. In that case, take a close look at me now!" said the narcissistic young man.

Other employees found him absurd. 'He has a lot of nerve saying that!' they thought.

Although they kept their voices low, Ashley could hear them clearly.

When she heard that they thought Andrew was gay, Ashley couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Andrew looked around with a stern face. Everyone instantly became silent.

Seeing Ashley laughing wildly in his arms, Andrew felt helpless.

She was still laughing when he put her into the car.

Andrew frowned. "Can you stop laughing?" he said with a serious look.

Ashley wanted to do as he told her. But seeing his gloomy face and remembering that his employees thought he was gay, she couldn't help laughing.
