Chapter 296 Scheming

After Lena had seen how attractive Andrew was, and his huge family fortune, Raymond became nothing but rubbish to her.

She had been with Raymond for so long. Hadn't she fallen in love with him?

Love?

How could that be possible?

How could Lena fall in love with Raymond? Of course, Raymond had always treated her well. He was the model boyfriend.

However, back then, the only reason why she pursued Raymond was to upset Ashley. She didn't want her to have a happy life. Everything that Ashley ever had, Lena always stole away from her, including the man she had.

It wasn't that she never had any feelings for Raymond. She might have had a momentary crush on him in the past. However, in the end, he didn't find a place in her heart.

'I can't keep this baby, ' she thought to herself.

Lena had her mind-set on being with Andrew. 'I'm sorry Raymond, but I can't keep this baby.'

She was determined and had made up her mind.

Since she had already decided she didn't want the baby, Lena had to get rid of it as soon as possible.

Raymond or someone else couldn't find out about it.

She had to keep it a tight secret and not to spill the beans.

Suddenly an evil thought entered her mind, and her eyes sparkled with delight.

The perfect idea had occurred to her. With this plan, she could kill two birds with one stone. She could show Andrew what kind of woman Ashley really was, and also use her to get rid of her baby while keeping face.

The best way was to use Ashley's hand to get rid of this baby.

Naturally, Raymond and Andrew had to be there when she created the scene. So she could make them see that Ashley was a jealous and vicious woman.

Lena was pleased when she thought of how Ashley would have to explain herself to them.

If everyone witnessed that she lost her baby because of physical evidence that Ashley inflicted on her, then the others would believe that it was all Ashley's fault.

However, Lena wasn't aware that Ashley already knew that she was pregnant.

Like the old saying, "One shouldn't count their chickens until they are hatched, especially when they are scheming something."

After Ashley and Andrew went back to the Golden Palace, Andrew had fulfilled his wish that he prom

er off this time?'

Andrew could only helplessly watch Ashley walk away. When she disappeared from sight, he frowned. 'What can I do to make it up to her?' he wondered.

Johnny looked at Ashley and then looked at Andrew. He had no clue what was going on between them.

He was staring in a trance, and his eyes revealed his inner thoughts.

Johnny only snapped out of it when he felt Andrew looking at him. He quickly turned to the front and pretended as though nothing unusual was going on.

Fearful of being exiled, Johnny had to watch his every move and behavior, so he didn't upset Andrew, by stepping out of line.

"Drive on," said Andrew.

Ashley punched the card and then went to the office of the design department. Amaia went over to meet her. "What happened to you, Ashley? I couldn't contact you for the past two days. You were unreachable on your phone. You scared me," said Amaia worriedly.

"I'm okay. I just caught a cold. It took a lot out of me, so I had a couple of days off. I'm much better now," said Ashley smiling.

Then she suddenly leaned in closer to Amaia and whispered, "Amaia, I took two days off. Did Miss Mo say anything about it? Did she show any sign of being displeased?"

'I'm really worried about that.'

"No. Miss Mo said nothing. You don't have to worry about it. Miss Mo is actually a very nice person. You asked for leave because you were ill. Of course, she wouldn't say anything about it."

"Really?" asked Ashley, staring at Amaia with doubt.
