If that was the case, how could Andrew keep acting like nothing happened?
Andrew began to feel a strong surge of panic within him. He held onto Johnny and shook him, "I need to head back to J City now. I hope you can handle the rest of the affairs here by yourself."
Johnny's eyes widened as he looked up at his superior in surprise, "I-I, Mr. President!" "Thank you," Andrew said before he quickly pushed himself away and left Johnny alone in the hallway.
Johnny froze as he watched Andrew's receding figure. In his mind, he quietly thought, 'Andrew must really be in love with Ashley as if he's this willing to abandon his career for her.
They are too exaggerated! See how long they have been separated!
For Andrew, a day without her will feel like years.'
He couldn't tell when, but somehow, Amaia's face suddenly popped up in his mind.
A small smile crept over Johnny's face as he thought of his last conversation with Amaia on WeChat. Amaia had always made an effort to deliver home-cooked meals to him whenever he was too busy to make his own lunch.
Johnny felt that it was good to have someone worry about him.
Arya, Ethan, and their daughter Susie were rejoicing back in J City.
After they had gotten of Ashley, the Lu family felt like they were on cloud nine. They were so damn happy that they felt like holding a party just to celebrate Ashley's departure, but they knew they had to be careful or else Andrew might catch up to them.
Susie looked at her parents with glee as she asked, "So Ashley's really gone? She really left J City? Does this mean that she'll never come back?"
Arya grinned widely at her daughter's enthusiasm. "Yes, honey, it's true! We have gotten rid of her finally! She's left J City, and she will never come back ever!
And even if she wants to come back, she'll have to figure out how difficult it is to return here!"
"Oh, Mom! You don't know how happy I am! Ashley's finally gone! She's finally out of J City! I don't know if I've told you this, but I really, really, really hate Ashley! My brother has always been so nice to me, but ever since she got in the picture, he showered her with so much love and affection! Have you ever seen my brother so gentle?" Susie exclaimed.
It wasn't just Susie, but even Andrew's parents had never seen h
she didn't work for it.
If they wanted Susie to have a bright future, they had to guide her to that path first.
Now, Susie couldn't wait to tell Lesley about Ashley's departure. A phone call was immediately made to Lesley.
When Lesley answered Susie's call, Angelina was sitting opposite her.
Lesley quickly apologized to Angelina before she answered the phone.
Susie's bubbly voice rang through the receiver and she said happily, "Lesley! Where are you now? I have wonderful news!"
"Wonderful news, huh? You sound so happy."
Susie grinned mischievously and said, "Oh, I don't think I'll be the only happy one once you hear about this. I want to tell you in person! So tell me where you are!"
Lesley had hummed before she told Susie the address, then she hung up the phone.
After the call ended, Lesley looked back at Angelina who was sitting in front of her.
Lesley was still so shocked to see that Angelina had willingly approached her. Both of them took pride in their connections and networks.
Even then, Angelina was the heiress of the Gu family. She was also a kind friend of Susie's. Unbeknownst to her, Angelina might be Susie's sister-in-law in the future.
The reason why Angelina came to see Lesley was actually because of Ashley. She knew that Lesley loved Andrew and they failed to end up together.
Lesley must have suffered from her relationship with Andrew because of Ashley. Considering what had happened, Lesley must despise Ashley a lot or else she wouldn't have treated Ashley like that.
