Chapter 166 The Gift For Your Engagement


    The situation was very clear. Clyde had already made his decision. To his surprise, however, Lena


    actually refused him. He started to wonder why she had be so slow with this.


    Lena still held onto the ring and refused to give it to Ashley. However, she loosened her grip on it after


    Cora sighed and whispered something in her ear. Lena''s eyes widened at what Cora told her, and then


    she looked at Andrew with unconcealed shock. She could feel her face getting hotter, and her breath


    was bing more and morebored.


    It was obvious that she was having a hard time in believing that Andrew was a man with a great


    influence on all the rich people she knew. It never urred to her that Andrew would be a man who her


    parents and her parents-inw only dreamt of having a chance to talk to.


    The shocksted for just a while, though. Soon, her jealousy swallowed her up once again. Her eyes


    started getting red with evil. Slowly, she nced at Ashley, who was being protected by Andrew.


    She couldn''t ept the fact that an orphan who had nothing would end up with such an amazing man.


    To her, Ashley was nothing. A nobody. To her, Ashley didn''t deserve a man like Andrew. A man like him


    should be hers. And with that, Lena decided to do everything in her power to seduce Andrew.


    Because of that, she quickly put her evil thoughts and expression away. After that, she took a deep


    breath and put on her best, cutest, beautiful and innocent smile on her face. Shyly, she walked towards


    Ashley and tried to hold her hand. However, Johnny was having none of it and stopped her.


    Towering over Lena, he said, "Miss, I''m sorry but you can''t get closer. My boss likes to keep a distance


    with others. You can say whatever you need to say right here."


    That made Lena almost lose her temper, but she managed to hold herself together. However, she


    couldn''t let go of what happened. She just nced at Johnny with mockery in her eyes. She thought


    there was no point for her to be angry with an assistant that could be reced easily.


    In her head, she truly believed that she would be the wife of the Lu Group''s CEO, and then, the


    assistant in front of her would pay for what he had done. ''I would fire you immediately, and you would


    regret the day you met me, '' she thought, smirking.


    It was a good thing for Lena that Johnny didn''t know what was going on in her mind. If he did, he would


    definitely burst outughing. Everything that she was thinking was moronic.


    And even a moron wouldn''t have the guts to think of such things!


    Lena would be considered a joke if she ever verbalized what she was thinking.


    Johnny, for one, knew for sure that Lena would never have the slightest chance of being Andrew''s wife,


    and everything she was nning in her head would not happen.


    Even Andrew''s father didn''t even have the power to fire Johnny; there was no way that someone like


    Lena would be able to do so.


    "Ash, I think I was mistaken. This is not the ring that Raymond gave me. I am sorry!" Lena looked at


    Ashley apologetically. Her face turned slightly red to show how sorry she really was. Seeing her like


    this, people could hardly me her for anything.


    Everyone thought she was just an innocent, little girl who made a tiny, forgivable mistake.


    Clyde and Cora finally rxed after Lena did what they wanted.


    Andrew didn''t even bother to look up at her. His eyes were still fixed on Ashley, and he was mindlessly


    ying with her soft hair. Lena''s apology merely earned her a mocking sneer from Andrew.


    Lena''s expression froze. She couldn''t believe what Andrew just did to her. He sneered at her without


    even giving her a nce!


    Andrew waited for a while before responding, and it made the whole scenario really awkward. Slowly,


    he continued, "It looks like you really like this ring. It''s yours then. Just think it''s my engagement gift to


    you." Andrew still wasn''t looking at Lena.


    Rage roared inside Lena, and she couldn''t help but tighten her grip on the ring that she was holding.


    The strength made her fingers be pale. ''A gift for my engagement? It is my engagement ring!''


    Lena shouted in her head.


    However, knowing who Andrew was, Lena didn''t dare offend him.


    So, she had to swallow her pride.


    "Oh my! Is he the CEO of the Lu Group named Andrew Lu?" a rich girl asked loudly after the moment


    she realized who Andrew was.


    As everyone heard what she said, the silence in the room was once again broken.


    They then quickly turned their heads to look at the girl who broke the news.


    As soon as she said it out, she realized that maybe she should have lowered her voice. As a result, she


    covered her mouth and started looking terrified.


    But after a while, the eyes moved on from her, and she finally rxed.


    "Hey, Lilly. What do you mean? Are you sure it''s him? Are you sure he is the CEO of Lu Group?" a


    friend of the girl asked.


    Lilly responded to her friend, now more conscious of the volume of her voice, "I said that man standing


    right next to Lena''s sister earlier looked very familiar. He is the special assistant of the CEO of the Lu


    Group. Although he is just an assistant, his boss trusts him very much. He definitely has a high position


    in thepany."


    Her friend, however, was still confused. She continued to ask, "The CEO of the Lu Group? Who is it? Is


    that the man holding Lena''s sister right now?"


    Lilly nodded. She was very certain. "Trust me! It''s him! I have seen him once from a very far distance.


    But I would never forget him!"


    With a face as gorgeous as Andrew''s, no one would ever forget him.


    "Oh my God!" one woman said, as she heard what the two were talking about. Her surprise was so


    great that she had to cover her mouth to avoid herself from gasping audibly. With her eyes as big as


    saucers, she truly was in shock of what she had discovered at that moment.


    "Mr. Lu and Miss Mu, pleasee with me," Clyde said respectfully, as he walked up to Andrew and


    Ashley.


    Ashley tightened her grip on Andrew''s hand, watching Clyde''s movements warily.


    Andrew firmly squeezed Ashley''s hand, as if to assure her that he was there. That greatly calmed her


    down.


    Turning to Clyde, he replied, "Thank you. But the Luo family doesn''t seem to wee us."


    With that, Clyde felt that his legs were about to fail to support his body. Cold sweat started dripping


    down his forehead. In a trembling voice, he responded, "Mr. Lu, that''s really funny for you to say. You


    and Miss Mu are most wee to our party! Anything you need, just let me know. I will try my best to


    be a good host to the both of you."


    Clyde still didn''t know what was going on, but he decided it was the best for him and the whole Luo


    family to be polite to them.


    Without a word, Andrew just looked at Clyde, then he walked out of the hall with Ashley. Johnny and


    Josef followed them closely behind.


    Johnny seemed to remember something very important, so he stopped suddenly. He turned, looked at


    the crowd and said, "Mr. Lu wants to keep everything that happened in this room, in the room. If


    anythinges out, he will not be thrilled. His anger is not something any of you could take. So, I


    suggest that every one of you keep everything in."


    Johnny sounded so matter-of-factly that it seemed like he was just reminding everyone to bring an


    umbre since it might rain.


    Everyone in the room got and understood the message. Johnny was working for Andrew, the CEO of


    the Lu Group, and that meant he meant what he said.


    Every person in the room silently nodded in agreement.


    Seeing that, Johnny smiled and went on his way.


    Josef was about to catch up with Andrew and Ashley when Johnny stopped him.


    Josef quickly turned around and looked at Johnny. With confusion in his eyes, he asked "What''s up?


    Spill it. I still need to get the car!"


    Johnny gave Josef a hopeless look, and replied, "What? Do you have nothing else in your brain


    besides that car? Can''t you see? Mr. Lu and Miss Mu need some personal time together! Do you really


    want to ruin their moment?"


    Josef looked at Johnny and stammered, "But...but...but Mr. Lu didn''t tell me that he wanted to spend


    some time with Miss. Mu alone..."


    Johnny pped his forehead and rolled his eyes. "You hopeless dumbass!" he whispered, shaking his


    head.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Upon hearing this, Josef got offended. He replied, "Hey, watch out, man! There''s literally no need to call


    me names!"


    "I just did. What do you want to do about it? Dumbass," Johnny replied, annoyed.


    And with that, Josef started to clench his fists. With narrowed eyes, he threatened Johnny, "Don''t you


    dare speak to me like that!"


    However, Johnny was not afraid of his threat nor did he back down. So they started to fight.


    They had found their way of leaving Andrew and Ashley alone.


    Ashley was still in shock of what was going on. Andrew put one of his arms around her shoulders as


    they walked in silence. When they got to the car, he opened the door for her and led her inside. Inside,


    she was finally able to gather her thoughts as she looked into his passionate


    eyes.
