Chapter 146 The Worries


    Jade hid the nasty side of her in front of Andrew.


    When Ashley walked out the room, Andrew was stunned for a short moment, but he quickly recovered.


    Ashley never really liked to show too much skin. Her fashion sense was not bad; it was just a little


    boring. Andrew had never seen Ashley in a dress like that before and he was blown away.


    It looked really good on her. He wanted to get a few more of these kinds of clothes for her. His thoughts


    were running wild, and he was having a hard time managing his bodily reaction to her.


    But once more, his incredible self-control repressed it. He quickly recovered and acted like nothing


    happened. His brows furrowed.


    Ashley noticed this, and she frowned too. She couldn''t help but think that the dress was a bad idea.


    "Andrew, what do you think of the dress? I think it looks really good on her. It shows the right amount of


    skin and leaves the rest for imagination. It fits her so well..." Jadeplimented.


    "I don''t really like it. Try another one," interrupted Andrew. He shook his head, frowning. His forehead


    was wrinkled with worry ever since Ashley had walked out.


    "Really? But it looks really good on her. Why don''t you like it?" Jade asked, looking puzzled.


    Andrew didn''t answer. He stood up and pulled Ashley into the other room. He insisted on selecting a


    dress for her. After walking back and forth for a while, he handed her a dress and asked her to try it on.


    Jade was waiting outside. When Ashley walked out, she just realized why Andrew was not satisfied


    with the first dress.


    It was a light purple dress, which covered every inch of her. It had long sleeves and a hemline that


    reached her ankles. It was a little loose on her but covered her fully.


    Compared to the red dress she had on earlier, this was a totally different style. The red dress brought


    out her assets. She would turn heads when she walked into a room full of people. However, the dress


    she had on just took all of that away.


    One good thing was that Ashley had a long, beautiful hair and a pretty face. Her sensitivity and


    charming vulnerability gave her a distinguished appearance and nobody would ever think that she was


    an orphan.


    The dress was well designed too. It somehow naturallyplemented her personality. It was distinctive


    and attractive.


    Everything looked good on a pretty and charming girl.


    Andrew did not seempletely satisfied with this dress either. But it was the best one he could find. It


    basically covered every part of her.


    "Alright, we will take this one," he said. He seemed to be running out of options, so he finally gave up.


    Ashley still didn''t say a word, but she surely liked this dress more than thest one.


    Now that they had picked the dress, it was time for makeup.


    Ashley sat in front of the mirror while Andrew took a seat on the couch nearby. Jade got her cosmetic


    kit out and started working.


    Although Jade was not a fan of Ashley, she was a really good makeup artist. She did a good job.


    Ashley was already very pretty without makeup. Jade just added some color on her eyebrows. She


    padded a little blush on her cheeks and put some lipstick on her. With just three simple steps Ashley


    looked outstanding.


    "Here we go! It''s done!" Jade said, as she added the finishing touches on Ashley.


    Ashley looked at herself in the mirror and then walked to Andrew.


    She now understood why Andrew hade to pick up her early this afternoon. He wanted to leave


    time for her to prepare for the party.


    "That looks great, Jade! Thank you! I think it''s time for us to go," said Andrew. He held Ashley''s hand


    and started to walk out.


    "Hey! Don''t rush out. Andrew, there is something very important I have to tell you..." Jade quickly


    stopped Andrew.


    She had called up Rosaline a while ago. Rosaline should be on her way right now. Jade knew how she


    felt about him. And she really liked him too! She just wanted to try her best to help Rosaline win his


    heart. Jade never thought Andrew would get married at such a young age.


    But, nobody would be surprised if he got divorced or remarried. Thanks to his status.


    Up until now, Jade hadn''t heard anything about Andrew''s marriage. She was quite certain that his


    family didn''t know about it either. This meant that Rosaline still had a chance. Jade had to do


    something!


    "Okay, what is it?" Andrew replied.


    Jade took a quick look at Ashley and said, "Can we talk in private?"


    Andrew wrinkled his brows impatiently. He was about to turn down her request. But Ashley squeezed


    his hand and shook her head slightly.


    Andrew changed his mind and whispered to Ashley, "Just give me a minute. I will be back very soon."


    Ashley knew that Jade meant a lot to him. She didn''t want toe between them. That was why she


    stopped him from storming out. Andrew walked with Jade to one corner of the store.


    "Andrew? Are you really married to that girl?" Jade couldn''t help but ask.


    "I am. And she is going to be the one and only woman in my life," said Andrew. Jade could see the


    resolve in his eyes.


    It was the first time she had heard him expressing his feelings. Jade was very surprised.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Andrew never paid much attention to women nor did he mess around with girls. He had great willpower


    and led a disciplined life. People around him were trying their best to have their daughters betrothed to


    him.


    Rosaline was close to Andrew, so she should have had the chance to be with him. Jade never


    expected Andrew to get married to some random girl.


    She winced, "Do your parents know about this?"


    Andrew shook his head.


    "You are the CEO of the Lu Group! You represent the corporation. How could you just get married to a


    random girl without talking to your family about it?" she asked.


    Andrew was not happy with what she was saying. He looked at Jade angrily and warned, "You just


    need to manage your business. I will take care of mine."


    Jade realized she crossed the line the second she did it. Andrew respected her and treated her nicely.


    But he was a gentleman with power and money. She shouldn''t poke her nose into his personal matters.


    Even if she wanted to, she didn''t have the ce to do so.


    "Andrew, I''m just a little worried about you. I never hear you are seeing anyone. You suddenly told me


    you already got married. I''m just afraid you might get hurt. Nowadays, girls will do anything for money. I


    just think maybe you should run a background check on the girls you date. You are the backbone of the


    entire Lu Group after all," said Jade.


    Andrew calmed down a bit.


    But he looked distant. "She is different," he said softly.


    Jade responded, "How can you be sure? Pretty girls like her are very good at using their beauty to get


    what they want from people like you..."
