Chapter 512 One Thing After Another

After hanging up on Amaia, Ashley answered Ellie's call. Before Ashley could say hello, she heard Ellie's angry voice demanding an answer from her.

"What is happening over the Internet?"

Ashley didn't expect or realize that the news would spread so fast. Now even Ellie knew about it.

Ashley was helpless. She walked to the window and looked down at the beautiful camellia flowers blooming. Then she calmly replied, "Ellie, please listen to me. Those are just rumors. I'll take care of them."

Ellie frowned and asked, "Okay, Ashley. How are you going to handle them specifically? You should have listened to me and made your relationship with Andrew public. Otherwise, none of this would be happening now, and other people wouldn't misconstrue things."

"Ellie, I didn't imagine that this could happen like this at that time. I thought that we had such different backgrounds that it would cause Andrew some public embarrassment. So I didn't want to make our relationship public. Nothing has happened since then. Why today?"

Ashley felt absolutely helpless. Before getting these phone calls, Ashley was sleeping. She was abruptly woken up because of Amaia's call, and now she had no idea what to do.

The moment Ellie saw the news on the Internet, the first thing she did was to call Ashley. But to her, it seemed Ashley wasn't really worried about this situation.

"Then what are you going to do, Ashley? Tell me. The news online is damning you. If this becomes serious enough, Andrew's company will also be affected."

When Ashley heard that Andrew's company would be affected, she suddenly seemed concerned and hurriedly asked, "Why would that happen?"

Ellie didn't know what to think about Ashley, or even what to say to her.

All Ellie could think for Ashley was how naive she was acting. Why did it seem like she was becoming more and more stupid after getting married?

"People are talking about you and Andrew on the Internet. Although they are just currently targeting you by calling you a seductress, he could also become a target to them as well. Then he will develop a negative reputation, and no one would want to c

against the door, gasping for breath. Clearly, Claire was distressed.

Ashley couldn't help but walk in front of Claire and ask, "Claire, what happened? What's going on? Weren't you planning to go shopping?"

Ashley helped Claire up as she posed her questions.

Claire took Ashley's hand and told her, "Miss Mu, there are a lot of reporters outside!

They surrounded me suddenly when I intended to buy vegetables just now. So I was forced to come back and lock the door. Ms. Ashley, what's happening now? Why are there so many reporters outside? And I heard them asking about you."

Claire gazed at Ashley, confused and worried.

Ashley was even more startled now. She had just gotten the news about these malicious rumors, and now there were so many reporters outside. It was obvious that someone had planned all of this in advance.

Although Ashley was flustered, she calmed herself down. Now Ashley had to be composed and came up with a solution to fix this hard case.

With this thought, Ashley grabbed Claire's hand and pulled her to sit on the sofa. Looking into Claire's eyes, Ashley told her calmly, "Claire, I can't explain everything to you now. Please trust me and just stay at home today. They will leave if nobody opens the door."

If Claire hadn't opened the door, there would be nothing wrong if those reporters surrounded the house. Nobody knew there was anyone home, but unfortunately now they did.
