Chapter 192 Don't You Understand

Dressed in formal pants with a crisp, white shirt as usual, Raymond looked clean and handsome.

Ashley, who was sitting opposite him, came to the point immediately, ignoring the milk tea on the table. "Tell me what happened."

Raymond's lips curved in a charming smile when he looked at her. "Ashley, you are finally here. This is your favorite milk tea. Come on, take a sip and tell me if it is still as tasty."

Ashley lowered her head and saw the milk tea with ice and lemon—her all-time favorite summer drink.

She used to indulge in a cup every time she came here. Milk, lemon tea and ice were mixed together in this refreshing. Her face relaxed when she sipped it.

'Well, he hasn't forgotten my taste.'

Instead of taking a sip, Ashley said, "No, thanks. I'm not thirsty now. Please tell me what you want."

Raymond's face fell.

"Ashley, I'm sorry for what happened in the shopping mall. I thought it was you who pushed Lena, but when I found out that she wasn't hurt at all, I knew it wasn't your fault. I shouldn't have blamed you for that." Looking into Ashley's eyes, Raymond had the urge to hold her hand. But Ashley dodged him.

She looked at him indifferently, She did love him before, but now everything had changed. He caught a glimpse of a faint smile on her lips as he apologized to her. "Um," she simply responded.

"Ashley, are you still mad at me? I didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't know Lena had done such things..."

Ashley interrupted him mid-sentence. "If this is what you want to tell me, I'm sorry I have no interest. I have to go now,"

she said dismissively and started to leave.

She had no time to chitchat over the milk tea with Raymond. They were neither lovers nor friends anymore.

Seeing that Ashley was about to leave, Raymond stood up in haste to stop her

r family has offended some big shot. Business is unpredictable. What makes you believe that he is the culprit?"

Although she sounded confident, she was not sure if Andrew was really innocent.

Looking into her eyes, Raymond replied, "Our business has gone downhill after that party. Do you believe it is just a coincidence?

Ashley, don't you know why he went against us?"

Raymond looked at Ashley with a mix of emotions.

"Stop!" Ashley interrupted Raymond as he was about to continue. "Stop talking. This is your problem. Please don't bother me.

You should talk to him instead of me. I can't do anything to help."

Instead of waiting for Raymond's reply, Ashley took her bag and left in haste.

Raymond watched as she fled.

He clenched his hands and lowered his head. No one knew what was going on in his head.

After leaving the milk tea shop, Ashley called Ellie to tell her that she had to deal with something, and then she went home directly.

Raymond's words still echoed in her mind.

"Our business has gone downhill after that party. Do you believe it is just a coincidence?"

Raymond's worried face also flashed in her mind. "Ashley, don't you know why he went against us?"
