Chapter 121 Poker-faced Man


    It was obvious that he was a frequent visitor.


    The man in the pink suit looked more coquettish than women, with his peachy cheeks and almond-


    shaped eyes. He cast flirtatious nces at every woman passing him by.


    What was surprising was that the pink suit didn''t feel awkward or feminine on him. Instead, it suited


    him. He had been like this since birth.


    Francis walked straight to Andrew''s office and sat down casually on the sofa.


    "Ah, it''s unexpected that Andrew would have snacks, which are girls'' favorite. What a surprise! I''ll enjoy


    myself first," Francis said, raising his eyebrows when he saw snacks on the table.


    Francis was a yboy so he knew what kind of snacks were favored by girls.


    He had bought them himself on many asions.


    Technically speaking, Francis was a dutiful lover. When he was in a rtionship, he would treat his girl


    pretty well. Whether it was reasonable or not, as long as she wanted it, he would satisfy her demands.


    However, he also was the most ruthless lover. Once the rtionship ended, he would get away from


    her as soon as possible, and treat the girl like aplete stranger.


    Feeling bored, Francis picked up some snacks and began to eat them. Soon he found himself addicted


    to them.


    "Wow, they''re delicious. Eh, famous brands. Good. Looks like Andrew is fond of these," Francis


    commented while he was eating.


    He didn''t notice Ashley because shey on the secluded sofa on the other side and yed with her


    cellphone, wearing earphones.


    But Ashley had noticed himing in because Francis made a lot of noise, which couldn''t be ignored.


    She poked her head sneakily, casting a furtive nce at him, and then cowered quickly.


    She couldn''t help wondering, ''Andrew said no one woulde to his office. But who is this guy? How


    did hee in?''


    She sunk lower on the sofa, trying not to be found.


    Luckily, the sofa she was lying on was in line with the one on which Francis was sitting, so if she didn''t


    make any noise, Francis would never find her.


    Thanking her lucky stars for not being found, she felt relieved. But the next moment she turned round,


    she found that arge shining face appeared in front of her.


    Staring at him dumbfounded for several seconds, Ashley cried out.


    This made Francis cry out too.


    Both their cries reverberated through the entire office.


    Secondster, Ashley realized she shouldn''t have shouted.


    So she punched him on his eye, and stood up, watching his movements warily, "Who the hell are you?"


    Seeing that it was a woman, Francis didn''t try to defend himself, so he was unprepared and ended up


    with a shiner on his eye. Now he didn''t even care about her watchful gaze.


    Putting on his most charming smile, Francis began to introduce himself, "Don''t panic, sweetheart. I''m


    Francis Nan and I''m a gentleman. Could you please tell me why you are here? I don''t think you realize


    that you can''t visit this ce randomly. You''ll be thrown out, trust me."


    Francis was always chivalrous towards women. Besides, he was right. This was Andrew''s office and


    nobody could be in here without his permission. Otherwise, he would throw them out.


    Francis thought Ashley was like the other women who wanted to seduce Andrew, so he tried to give


    her a heads up about his friend.


    "Wow, look at you, such a beautiful woman, but I don''t think Andrew will be attracted to you. How about


    this? You can be my girlfriend, and I promise I will pay attention to you. What do you say?" Looking


    Ashley up and down, Francis couldn''t be more satisfied.


    As a womanizer who devoted himself to many rtionships, Francis met a lot of beautiful women who


    were pure, enchanting, sexy or coquettish. But none of them couldpare with Ashley. She had a


    sweet temperament, but she looked enchanting, which made it hard for Francis to resist flirting with her.


    ''Look at her big and intelligent eyes, her jade-like elegant face, and her crystal clear lips. What a sexy


    stunner!'' Francis praised in his mind.


    Ashley didn''t say anything. It seemed that the man knew Andrew, and that they got along well. She was


    wondering how to respond to his advances.


    She sized him up carefully. The man wore a pink suit, and had smooth, white skin and a beautiful face.


    Yes, he was so beautiful that people might think "Wow" when they saw him for the first time. Ashley


    would have almost thought he was a woman if she hadn''t seen his t chest and Adam''s apple.


    "So dear, what do you think? I suggest you''d better make a decision now. Otherwise, when the poker-


    faced bosses back, you''ll be so dead," Francis said shamelessly.


    Noticing Ashley sizing him up, he shed his most charming smile and looked at her seductively.


    But to Ashley it looked hrious with the shiner on his eye.


    "Haw-haw," Ashley couldn''t stop herself fromughing out loud. ''Poker-faced? Did he mean Andrew?''


    Ashley mused.


    Indeed, Andrew seldom smiled, which made the nickname apt.


    Francis began tough when he saw Ashley cracking up. He said, "I told you. If you say yes to be my


    girl, I promise he won''t dare to hurt you," he began to brag.


    "Really?" an intimidating voice said behind him, making Francis nervous.


    His smile froze when he heard the familiar voice. Turning away slowly, he looked at Andrew and


    straightened up. "Well, you''re back? Eh, I was joking just now. I know you won''t take it seriously, dude.


    And, this beauty didn''t mean to interrupt you. She came here by mistake, so don''t throw her out."


    Francis still remembered to appeal on behalf of Ashley even though he was unable to fend for himself.


    This made Ashley dislike him less. She watched him a little longer.


    But suddenly her eyes were covered by Andrew. "Don''t look at him!" he ordered.

    No one knew that Andrew wanted to throw his friend out to the wolves when he heard what he said to


    Ashley. What a jerk! He dared to flirt with his wife. He even asked Ashley to be his girlfriend! How


    shameless!


    ring at Francis who was still in shock, Andrew said severely, "Poker-faced man? Is that what you


    called me? Huh? Be your girlfriend? Are you serious?"


    Francis didn''te to his sense when he found out the truth about Ashley and Andrew''s rtionship.


    He felt Andrew''s anger. Feeling remorseful, he exined, "Hold on, Andrew. Listen to me. I didn''t know


    she is your girlfriend. Otherwise, I would never say that, you know me, pal.


    I will never steal your girl. I swear. By the way, who is she? Is she..." Ogling at Ashley, Francis was


    stunned.


    ording to rumors Andrew wasn''t interested in women, so who was the girl beside him?
