As soon as Ashley went back to her desk, she started to ready her things. Seeing Ashley pack up, Amaia couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Is everything okay?" "Why are you packing up your things so early?"
Ashley replied indifferently, "I got fired."
Amaia gasped in shock and looked at Ashley, exclaiming, "How could this have happened? Why did you get fired all of a sudden? Did Ms. Mo really say that? I will go talk to her."
As she said this, she stood up and rushed to see Kelly.
Ashley stopped her, "Okay, Amaia. It's not what you think. Ms. Mo didn't actually fire me."
"Then what happened?" "What did you do?" Amaia asked hastily.
Ashley had no idea where to begin. It was all so complicated. Amaia didn't know that the person she was married to was Andrew. And the Lu family did not support this marriage at all. They were all against her intentionally or unintentionally. They were bent on trying to force her to leave Andrew.
"It's hard to explain everything to you right now," said Ashley in frustration.
Amaia anxiously looked at Ashley and asked, "Then tell me what really happened. Why were you fired for no apparently reason at all and so suddenly? Who fired you?"
Ashley felt absolutely helpless now. She knew that Amaia was the only one who was nice to her in this company, so she didn't want to act secretive towards her.
Ashley bit her lips and responded, "It's somebody from the Lu family."
Amaia looked at Ashley confusedly, "The Lu family? What do you mean, Ashley? You are not talking about THE Lu family, are you?"
In J City, there was only one family that could be called the Lu family.
"What happened? How did you get involved with them?"
"It's hard to explain that to you in such a short time. But, Amaia, trust me, I'll be back in a couple of days. During this period, just think that I'm on vacation and having fun."
Amaia accepted Ashley's explanation with profound resignation. There was nothing else she could do.
After talking, Amaia suddenly hugged Ashley and told her, "Don't forget me! You
he whole Lu family and the Lu group were all controlled by Andrew alone.
Sometimes, Arya couldn't help but blame Ethan. He was just good for nothing.
He had lost all his power over the Lu Group and with that her power too.
Arya sneered, "I'm his mother anyway. He won't do anything to me. But you, he's only playing with you now. What will you do when he gets tired of you? Because he will. I guarantee it."
"Let's just wait and see," said Ashley confidently.
"What's more! You are not even Andrew's real mother. You are only his stepmother. How dare you say you are Andrew's mother? Shame on you!" she added.
Arya was so angry that her face turned a fiery red. She shouted, "Ashley, you bitch, who do you think you are!" "I know this for certain whoever I am, I am sure better than you!"
Ashley didn't say anything else after this, but she gave Arya a final cold glance and left with her container.
They were just taking advantage of the moment when Andrew wasn't in J City.
If Andrew were in J City, they wouldn't have come here and created so much trouble.
She could only pray that Andrew would come back as soon as possible.
Since at the time being, she had no job or no home to live in.
Ashley kicked the gravel under her feet angrily.
Nonetheless, even though she couldn't work or stay at home now, she had to go on with her life somehow.
