Chapter 184 Feeling Sweet

Andrew put Ashley's cell phone on the mute mode and watched her sleep for a while. He left only after Johnny called him the third time.

At the international airport, he naturally attracted a lot of attention due to his looks and his dashing black suit.

Johnny followed him closely, dragging a suitcase and, at the same time, updating him about the itinerary for the day.

"Mr. Lu, you will arrive in A country by four o'clock this afternoon. And then you will have dinner with the CEO of the Flourish Group..."

Johnny stopped mid-sentence, because there was a woman standing in front of them. And it was none other than Lesley, who came to see Andrew in his office yesterday.

She greeted them as soon as she saw them. "Hi, Andrew. Hi, Johnny."

She was carrying a small suitcase. Obviously she, too, was going abroad.

Johnny glanced briefly at Andrew and then turned to Lesley. "Miss Feng, where are you going?"

"Oh, I am going to A country with Andrew, because now I'm in charge of our family's business there," she explained.

Johnny's heart lurched. 'So she is going with us?'

"Miss Feng is a truly remarkable businesswoman," he complimented.

Lesley responded with a catty smile.

What she didn't tell them was that when she found out that Andrew was going to A country yesterday, she checked which flight he had booked and booked the same one. She even succeeded in getting the seat next to his.

At Golden Palace

Ashley sat up on the bed, rubbing her sore waist. Bright sunlight flooded the room. She raised her arm to cover her eyes. Then she took the cell phone from the night stand and saw that there were a few missed calls from Ellie.

Ashley was about to return her calls when a new text came in. It was from Andrew.

"I'm boarding."

She had just woken up and he was already boarding. They slept at the same time and how could he be so energetic?

She quic

ed around to go back.

"Don't you worry. We can go to see them often if you want," said Ashley trying to cheer up her best friend, who looked glum.

Ellie nodded and said, "Okay."

Suddenly, something occurred to Ashley. "Ellie, I can stay with you at your place today," she said excitedly.

Ellie looked at her with uncertainty and asked, "Will he agree?"

Ashley held her head up. "He has to even if he doesn't want to. He is on a business trip," she replied smugly.

"Wow, looks like you are very happy about it," Ellie remarked.

"Of course," Ashley nodded happily.

"Josef, you can go back. You don't have to come to pick me up this week. I will stay with Ellie," she instructed.

"Okay, Miss Mu."

As it was the end of a month, Ellie let all the staff of the bakery take a day off. They didn't have to work today.

Ashley and Ellie tended to the shop and after closing for the day, they went back home by cab. When they were home, Ashley opened her arms, took a deep breath and said, "It is so wonderful to be here!"

Ellie looked at her and said, "Well, come here."

The bakery was owned by the two of them. They had invested all their money in the shop. So at the end of each month, they settled the accounts to see how much they earned.
