Chapter 242 I love you
"What happened between you and Flora?" As soon as Flora left, Dylan stopped being reserved and looked at Ashley as if he
was waiting to see a good show. He didn't look like otherworldly.
"We're disciples of the same sect, what will be except the limited resources is the cause?" In order the distract Dylan attention,
Ashley decided to change the topic and said, "If you don't have work to do tonight, let's go to eat alone. There is no need to eat
hot pot with them."
"That sounds like a human saying." Dylan was finally satisfied. "I saved your life. A meal of hotpot definitely can't satisfy me."
Dylan changed his clothes. When both of them fully dressed and covered their face, they left. After half an hour's drive, they
arrived at a well decorated restaurant for lamb spine. Looking at the decoration, Ashley knew that Dylan was going to let her
spend a sum of money again. Thinking of the last time when Dylan made her spend lots of money at the Banquet Night Building,
she couldn't help but cover her bag with her hand.
After they parked the car and walked into the restaurant, Ashley spoke to the waiter.
Ashley's face was totally different without makeup. She usually wore makeup in public, but not today, besides, she also wore a
mask, so the waiters didn't recognize her at all.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
"Please arrange for us a private room" She said.
The waitress looked back at Dylan, who was wearing a mask and a cap. When the waiter looked over, he turned his face to
another direction, pretending to look around the restaurant's decoration.
The waiter didn't know what they were talking about, so he nodded, "Okay, this way please."
After they went into the room and ordered the food, as well as the dishes, the door was closed and the waiter was asked not to
come in unless there was something important. Dylan heaved a sigh of relief and took off the things from his face and head.
"It's suffocating me." Dylan heaved a sigh of relief. He saw that Ashley was looking at the menu carefully. "What are you doing?
The food here is enough for us. You don't need to order more."
"Don't get me wrong." Ashley gave the man a sad look and said, "I just want to see how spendthrift you are. It's just a meal. The
salary of an ordinary person has been used up."
"You're so stingy." Unable to bear to look straight into her eyes, Dylan continued, "you don't have to treat me a meal. When you
were poor, you treated me in a roadside stand. Now that you are not short of money, it's not a big deal for you to treat me a good
meal."
Ashley put down the menu and poured a cup of tea for Dylan. "Anyway, you saved my life. But for your guidance that day, I
would have died. But I don't think I can pay them back. We'll replace wine with tea to make a toast to you. "
All of a sudden, Dylan was a little emotional as he heard what Ashley said. He picked up his teacup and clinked it with Ashley
before saying, "nice lines."
"Thank you for your praise." Ashley winked at him.
The tea was hot. Both of them took a sip.
Dylan put down his tea cup and teased, "I heard that Gloria was caught. What's going on? Is there any progress in your mother's
case?"
"Yes, a huge progress." Ashley smiled pleasantly. After all, she finally caught Gloria. "I heard from Shawn that the website has
been completely destroyed, and the mastermind behind it is a programmer over 40 years old.
That man was pushed back by the company at an old age and had no strong points, so he established a virtual trading website
himself and gradually developed into a criminal net. When he was arrested, the police interrogated him for a few days. He told
the police about the transaction records of the website in recent years. One of the trading records is Gloria's name, time, address
and criminal plan. In that day, the police took her to the police station for interrogation. "
"Although Gloria has been caught, you need to continue to plan it." Seeing that Ashley was overjoyed, Dylan couldn't help but
said, "you know, China is a place where people only talk about humanity. Gloria's attitude will play a role in her trial result. If a
good lawyer gives her advice, it is hard to say what the result will be."
The smile on Ashley's face faded away.
Dylan picked up a lamb spine and put it in her plate. "Do you want Gloria to be sentenced to death?"
"Yes." She said without hesitation.
"Then you should spend more time in lawyers. For example, you should bribe the lawyer of Gloria or arrange a reliable one to
work for her. Actually, there is nothing we should do, as long as the lawyer can guide Gloria to tell the truth. "
Ashley was lost in thought.
Today, Sheila came to the hospital to ask for the help of Samuel. She could tell that Sheila was looking for a lawyer for Gloria,
but she did not have the money. Not knowing the reason why even Ethan left Sheila and now she was hopeless.
She might make mischief here.
It took two hours for them the finish the meal. Now was already eight o'clock. As Ashley was about to go back to the company
and get off work with Jasper, she found it was a little late, but she was desperate to know that she couldn't catch up with it.
Seeing that Ashley was a little listless after the meal, Dylan guessed that the thing he ordered today might be a little expensive.
After all, Ashley had lived a hard life and was very stingy.
When they came out of the room, the waitress at the door asked enthusiastically, "do you want to pay the bill?"
"Yes." Dylan nodded.
"This way, please."
Following the waitress to the reception desk, Ashley took out her wallet from her bag. Before she took out her credit card, a hand
flashed in front of her eyes. She raised her head and saw that Dylan had already given the credit card to the waitress.
Hearing that, Ashley could not help but open her mouth in surprise. She hadn't expected that Dylan would be so generous and
gentle since he had taken advantage of such a good opportunity to make her pay. "Is it not my treat, Brother Dylan?" she asked.
Dylan squinted at Ashley and signed on the bill. He said, "look at your face. It seems that someone owes you money. I pay you
out of kindness this time. You can pay it next time."
Ashley touched her face covered with a mask. Was the disappointed expression on her face so obvious?
The waitress took the bill from Dylan and had a look at it casually. Then she paused and muttered, "why is this signature so
familiar?"
Hearing that, Dylan's heart skipped a beat. "Shit! I have been used to signing my name." Hearing this, Ashley also felt something
wrong. She looked at Dylan doubly.
Feeling that he was about to be recognized, Dylan reached out and grabbed Ashley's unharmed arm. Without saying anything,
they rushed out of the restaurant!
It happened all of a sudden. The two left in a hurry. The waiter who was holding the menu finally remembered and pointed at the
menu excitedly, "Dylan! Dylan! "
The people around him were confused.
The waitress finally came to his sense in excitement. He pointed in the direction of their departure, "that man is Dylan!"
"Ah! What! "
"It's Dylan!"
The waitresses in the restaurant immediately went crazy with excitement and rushed out to chase him. Other female guests who
heard the noise were also excited. They screamed and rushed out.
Hearing the shrieks coming from the back, Ashley was afraid of being followed by so many female fans of Dylan.
"Where's your car, Brother Dylan! I don't want to be on the top search with you again. Your fans have already scolded me for the
gossip happened on the Christmas Eve. If it goes on like this, I will... Shit, what's this! " Ashley was stumbled.
ZEMO caught up with her and said, "slow down and run quickly. Our car is in front of us!"
They got on the car as fast as a rabbit. Before his fans arrived, Dylan started the car and left the restaurant.
Sitting in the car with a sigh of relief, Ashley looked back and saw that no one was chasing after them. She patted her chest, still
in a state of shock. "Fortunately, they didn't catch up. It really scared me, more frightening than the gangster with a knife."
Dylan slowed down the car and looked at the woman beside him. "Is it so frightening? It's just a gossip."
"Of course." Ashley nodded her head firmly. "Brother Dylan, please pull over at the roadside. My driver is still waiting for me in
front of the restaurant. I'll ask him to pick me up."
After driving for a while, Dylan pulled over.
After they took off all the masks on their faces, Ashley called the driver and knew that he was eating somewhere, so she had to
wait for a while.
It seemed that she was destined not to pick up Jasper and get off work together.
Sitting in the car, both of them kept silent for a while.
The suburb was not as busy as the city, and there were not many stores outside. In addition, the vehicles on the road were very
few. After being silent for a while, Ashley felt a little unaccustomed. When she was with Dylan, they were always quibbling and
jeering at each other. They seldom became so quiet like this.
"What's on your mind, Brother Dylan? Why don't you speak?"
Dylan turned his head sideways to look at the woman next to him. Half-genuine and half-sham, he said, "thinking about you."
Ashley didn't care and smiled, "don't tease me."
The smile on Dylan's face faded away. Perhaps it was wrong for them to get to know each other at the very beginning, so Ashley
always had deep-rooted opinions of him. She always felt that he was not serious about love. She always felt that he liked to see
what others would do to make fun of her.
The man began to keep silent again. Ashley couldn't help but look sideways, and she met with Dylan's dark eyes. The light was
dim, so she couldn't see the man's face clearly. But he was in a strong mood now, which made her ignore the visual barrier. She
was scared to see his dark and deep eyes.
"Brother Dylan, what's wrong?"
All of a sudden, Dylan lowered his head and pressed his lips onto hers!
The sudden kiss made her eyes wide open. She was so shocked that she even forgot to react.
How could it be? How could it be like this?
That was the only thing she could think of.
Outside the car is silent, but that the occasional sound created by the friction between tires and the ground when a car was
whizzing, like a gust of breeze quietly blowing at night.
Dylan lingered greedily between the lips for a long time before he reluctantly let her go.
Ashley was still in shock. Although the street lamp was dim, the light was blocked by the man's body. Her face was in the
darkness, looking mysterious and charming.
"I'm serious. I love you."
