"Why are you browsing your phone in the dark? That's bad for your health,"
Ashley said as she looked at Andrew in bed.
"You are five minutes late,"
Andrew replied flatly.
Ashley was rendered speechless.
She got so engrossed talking with the kids on the phone just now that she seemed to have forgotten the time.
Ashley wanted to explain to Andrew. But on second thought, it might only worsen his mood.
So she just said, "I am so sorry. Please don't get pissed, okay? It is bad for your health."
She came closer to Andrew and kissed his cheek.
Ashley then began yawning. "I'm so sleepy now. I'm going to wash up first."
She then walked into the bathroom.
With a frown, Andrew got up from the bed and followed her.
Ashley washed her face hurriedly so as not to keep Andrew waiting again.
But when she was about to step out of the bathroom, she accidentally slipped and fell backward.
Her eyes popped with shock as she subconsciously covered her belly with her hands.
Alarmed, her heart almost burst.
'My baby!' her mind screamed.
But much to her surprise, she didn't feel any pain when she fell. Instead, a familiar scent penetrated her nostrils.
"How could you be so careless and clumsy?"
Hearing Andrew's voice, Ashley suddenly felt so feeble that she wanted to cry.
There was a trace of horror in Andrew's tone.
As a matter of fact, when he saw that Ashley was about to fall, his heart almost stopped beating.
Without a second thought, he sprinted towards Ashley.
Fortunately, he was able to hold her in his arms before her body could hit the floor.
Ashley held Andrew tightly. She felt like her heart leapt out of her chest.
"Andy, I was scared to death. I thought..."
Ashley couldn't finish her words. Her voice sounded so terrified. Thinking of what could have happened just now sent a chill down her spine.
"Hush... it's okay now."
Andrew did his best to comfort Ashley. He was
card it from her mind.
"I really thought that she was a nice person. I didn't expect that behind her beautiful face hides an evil soul,"
Ashley said with a sigh.
Angelina had even helped her once. So she never thought that she was a dangerous person.
"She doesn't mind taking someone's life just to get what she wants. In the end, she only ruined her own life," Ashley added.
"Well, we can't do anything to change her. Don't think about it anymore. Sleep now."
Andrew patted Ashley's back gently.
Since Ashley was too exhausted after what happened in the bathroom, she soon fell asleep in Andrew's arms.
"Good night," Andrew said gently and kissed her forehead. He stared at her sleeping face dotingly.
What Ashley didn't know was, Cayn was as smart and powerful as Andrew. He had a way with Angelina.
Since she hurt his beloved daughter Dany, she would surely die this time.
Andrew didn't need to do anything to Angelina to avenge Ashley.
All he needed to do was keep Ashley safe and sound beside him. He swore that he would protect her all his life.
Andrew only had his eyes for Ashley.
The next morning, Andrew was not beside Ashley when she woke up.
She called his name several times, but there was no response.
Ashley got up from the bed and stretched.
