Despite being confused, Selina and Ruby lowered their heads, following Lydza.
"Selina, I saw Ashley and Mike, who interviewed her that day! The two of them are here for dinner!" Lydia was very excited, thinking. Needless to wy, Benjamin must have secretly arranged this. Ashley is slowly falling into the trap without realizing in What a coincidence. I can sit back and enjoy the show. How delightful."
Selina
was confused. "So, why are we hiding?"
Lydia explained, "Well, Selina, let Ashley have her way first, I'd like to see what she is up to She wouldn't dare to be so blatant if you were here!"
Selina said, "Nothing is wrong with me being here. It's just Ruby
Selina glanced at Ruby, who said, "Although I don't know exactly what's happening, from what you've said, I'll just watch the show." Ruby was clever. She knew it must have something to do with Selina after learning about the relationship between her and the Harvey family and hearing about Ashley's matter. Lydia added, "Ruby, don't worry. There will be a good show that won't disappoint you.
Over there, Ashley suddenly felt that something was wrong and looked around subconsciously but didn't notice anyone familiar. Then, she breathed a sigh of relief and thought, 1 must be too sensitive. So much has happened lately.
"What's the matter, Ms. Harvey?" Mike asked in a gentlemanly manner.
Ashley replied, "Nothing. Mr. Crosby, why do you want to come here!"
"Isn't it nice here! Ms. Harvey, this restaurant is highly rated in Sokovis and has a reservation system. I heard the Frisian escargot is amazing. It
took me a lot of effort to make a reservation," stated Mike
"No. Mr. Crosby, don't get me wrong. It's fine here, and 1 like it," In fact, Ashley was afraid that she would meet some acquaintances there. The more expensive the restaurant was, the more likely someone would tell Joseph about her private meeting with Mile. However, considering Mike's sincerity, she knew she shouldn't disappoint him. Otherwise, the role within her grip would slip away, so she had to say no problem Mike said. "Great"
Gradually, Ashley relaxed and tried her best to talk pleasantly with Mike, who was so happy that his gaze on her grew more affectionate. Occasionally, her voice sounded melodious, like a silver bell in his ears. They looked like real lovers.
Undoubtedly, she had a knack for pleasing men. He was obviously mesmerized by her, unable to look away. Looking at her lecherously, he would have started making moves if it weren't for fear of scaring her during their first meeting. A beauty was right before him, but he couldn't have her. It was indeed a great torment for a man full of lu
Lydia clicked her tongue and exclaimed, "Ashley is really good at acting! I now understand why so many men are fooled by her It was a sincere admiration but, of course, a derogatory one.
"I wonder if Ashley has a boyfriend," Ruby whispered. From what she saw, the interaction between Ashley and Mike could easily be misunderstood by others. Ashley looked like she was cheating on her boyfriend.
Lydia stated, "She doesn't have one but has many backups. Ruby, you've seen a lot of such women."
Ruby said, 1 do, but I've never seen someone from a wealthy family like Ashley resorting to these tactics.
Harvey Group was one of the most influential families in Sokovis. It was as powerful as Ruby's family company, Crown Group. Both companies were influencial in their cities.
It was impossible for one to raise a young lady from such a prestigious family, with everything at her disposal and the best education like Ashley, to be someone who obtained things by pleasing men. She already had it all and should focus on creating her path. With that, Ruby had learned something new. Lydia touched her chin and said, "I want to take photos. I wonder what will happen if I post these on the media."
Selina patted Lydia's shoulder and said. "Lydia, if Benjamin has arranged this, I think he also has made the preparations. We don't need to do anything more. Just watch the show"
"I have investigated Timothy. I heard he had an engagement with Selina before, and then he had a good time with Ashley and had lingering feelings. Even the Clark family was very optimistic about his relationship with Ashley. If she hadn't refused before the Harvey family found Selina she and Timothy would have already. He once came to me and said he would use your engagement to drive a wedge between you and Mr. Brady so that he could take advantage of it. What's going on between Timothy and Ashley?" Ruby accepted Selina as a friend from the bottom of her heart, so she didn't want to hide anything.

Selina said, "I'm glad you told me about this, Ruby. As for Ashley's and Timothy's chaotic relationship, only they know well."

"Damn it! I can't believe there is such a thing. Damn it! I'll forward one of the photos to Timothy after Benjamin deals with them! I want Timothy to know he is being cheated on and explode in anger!" Lydia gritted her teeth angrily and cursed inwardly. "How dare she secretly plot against Selina? Now, I got her!"
After Ashley and Mike had finished dinner, he escorted her out gentlemanly. Only then did Selina and the others pop their heads out. Lydia quickly. took out her phone and called Benjamin. "Hello? Benjamin, I just saw Ashley having dinner with your man, Mike, at a restaurant. Did you arrange
this!"
Benjamin was studying the financial statements and uttered indifferently, "Babe, I'm not that free."
"Huh? You didn't set it up? So, she and Mike- asked Lydia.
Benjamin exclaimed, "I don't need to arrange this by myself! I just need my men to do it like how Ashley agreed to dine with Mike now. If they take the bait, they will fall into the trap sooner or later. You, fool
Lydia was almost driven crazy and thought, Benjamin sure is being outrageous! She said. "Benjamin, have you forgotten what else I got on you How dare you insult me! Watch out, or you'll get yourself beaten to death!"
Benjamin snapped, "Of course, I do. But I'm telling the truth. Lydia, remember you still want to watch the show. Can't you just let me have it? Otherwise, you won't get to see the show and only get to vent your anger for a short while. And you have to help Selina trick the Harvey family" "You really know how to suppress me using Selina. Fine. I'll bear with it this time! If I'm unsatisfied with this, I'm blaming you!" After hanging up. Lydia put her phone in her pocket and pretended that things were just what they had expected.
"I can guess what Benjamin plans to do, Selina stated, nodding. Someone like Ashley would easily fall for it if someone laid out bait that way. Some women thought they were in control but were oblivious. Undoubtedly, Ashley was heading in for serious trouble.
