Chapter 254 A Bite By A Mad Dog

Raymond looked at Ashley disapprovingly. "Ashley, how could you do that? Lena is your sister! Even if she had said something wrong, you shouldn't have treated her like that."

Ashley looked at him and raised her eyebrows. "What did I do to her?" she asked mockingly.

"You shouldn't have pushed Lena, no matter what the circumstances were," he replied.

"Ouch! It hurts."

Lena looked at Ashley and Raymond, who were staring at each other. Her eyes flashed with rage. She tried to stand up by supporting herself with her hands, but some part of her body hurt when she moved, and she cried in pain.

Hearing Lena's cry, Raymond released Ashley's hand and ran to her. "What's wrong? Are you hurt?"

Ashley rubbed her wrist. Her skin was so pale that the veins under it were almost visible. It would bruise easily and take a long time to heal.

He had gripped her wrist very hard and it had bruised immediately.

"I'm okay, Raymond. She didn't do it on purpose. She is probably mad at me for what I said.

I shouldn't have said that. After all, Ashley and Andrew have not been married for long. And now the daughter of the Feng family is back. It's common knowledge that the Lu family has accepted Lesley as Andrew's would-be wife since long ago. So, I was worried for Ashley. I didn't know she would..."

Lena started to sob mid-sentence.

"Okay, forget it. It isn't your fault. If she doesn't want to hear it, it's okay," Raymond said soothingly.

The supermarket was close to the highway and there was a concrete pavement outside it. Lena had made up her mind to frame Ashley successfully this time and in order to do so, she had to bear some pain. Her palms and knees had small cuts and bruises. As her skin was pale, the injury looked worse than it was.

Raymond grabbed her hand, checked her palm, and asked, "Does it hurt? Do you have other injuries? Let's me see."

Lena. And now he was blaming her.

After Ashley got back to the villa and put down the groceries, she plopped down on the couch and sighed.

"What happened, Miss Mu?"

"Nothing. I just met a mad dog on my way back and it kept barking at me. I was harrowed to death," she explained.

"Ah, Miss Mu, you have to watch out. A mad dog could bite anyone. And it's fatal to be bitten by a mad dog.

Are you okay? It didn't bite you, did it?" Claire asked anxiously.

"No, I kicked it away," Ashley replied.

Claire was relieved and said, "Thank God.

What's all this you have bought? It's quite a lot of things."

"I went to the supermarket and picked up some groceries." Ashley started unpacking the groceries. Having removed all the items from the bag, she brought them to the kitchen, and stuffed them into the refrigerator.

"Hasn't he returned yet?"

"You mean Mr. Lu?

No, he hasn't come back yet. He should be back anytime now. He called a moment ago and said that he would come back this evening," Claire informed her.

Ashley nodded briefly, and then said, "Claire, I will cook dinner today. You can go and take some rest."

"No, no, I'll do it, Miss Mu. It's my job. You'd better go rest. I'll let you know when dinner is ready."
