Chapter 818 Fear

When they could finally get out of the cinema, Ashley's legs were still so weak that she couldn't help but lean against Andrew.

Only with his help could Ashley walk out of the place. Otherwise, she might still be sitting inside helplessly.

Andrew knew that Ashley was afraid of ghosts, but he chose not to mention it now.

He could still vividly remember Ashley's facial expression when they were watching the horror movie last time. He actually wanted to see it again but he was sure that she would never show it to him at will.

At that point, Ashley was completely dependent on him for walking.

Andrew couldn't help but look at Fabio with approval in his eyes. It seemed like the child was indeed useful to him.

Although Andrew competed with Fabio for his wife's attention from time to time, the kid could sometimes be of great help to him.

For Fabio's assistance today, Andrew thought of being kind to him later on.

"Mommy, let's go inside, okay?" Fabio pulled Ashley's sleeve.

At that moment, they were standing just outside the haunted house. They were very close to it that Ashley could already hear the spooky sound effects inside. There were even screams from various people who sounded so terrified.

But she wasn't inside yet, so Ashley wasn't that scared. However, after a few brief moments, she heard some more screams and it instantly sent chills down her spine.

Then, her legs started to feel even weaker than before.

Nonetheless, Ashley tried to hide what she was feeling. She pretended to look at the time and awkwardly said to Fabio, "It's getting late now. Let's go home. We can check out the haunted house next time, okay?"

After saying that, Ashley couldn't help but look at Andrew. The two children were quite afraid of him. If he were to even say a word, the two boys would give up the idea of going inside that horrible house.

Moreover, when Fabio said that he wanted to have a look in the haunted house, Richard didn't say anything. But the boy looked at her so she immediately knew that he had the same idea as Fabio. It was very easy for Ashley to notice their mannerisms.

In fact, Ashley was feeling a great sense of regr

ven before she could see them.

When Andrew held her hand, Ashley immediately wanted to swat it away.

But thinking of what was still to come, she didn't do that. Instead, she even tightened her grip on Andrew's hand, as if it would make her feel safer.

Noticing Ashley's reaction, Andrew giggled softly.

He really liked this side of Ashley very much.

She was so cute.

However, Ashley still heard Andrew's laugh so she glared at him.

'What's so funny?'

Noticing the intent glare at him, Andrew stated, "Hey, I'm not laughing anymore."

After some time, Andrew realized that Ashley was still looking at him. He became afraid that he might have overdone it and made her upset. So he completely stopped laughing and wore an indifferent expression on his face.

However, the corner of his mouth slightly curled up.

"Daddy, Mommy, come on! Richard and I have already bought the tickets," Fabio called them from the entrance of the haunted house.

Ashley responded with a meek smile.

She wanted to go in, but soon realized that her legs were too weak to even move.

Ashley grabbed Andrew's sleeve and looked at him pitifully.

Suddenly, Andrew's heart melted like butter. But somehow he still found it in him to tease her.

"What's wrong? You can't walk?"

Ashley was rendered speechless. She pursed her lips and thought, 'What a load of crap! Didn't he know that I would go limp at the mere sight of the haunted house?'
