"What's wrong, Joseph Lloyd asked.
Such a loud noise attracted both Lloyd and Manuel.
Joseph asked. "Lloyd, Manuel, do you know where Ashley went!"
Manuel was stunned for a moment. "Ashley? I remember her getting up early this morning and going out after putting on her makeup. Maybe she has a date, What happened""
Joseph hesitated before saying, "I can't tell you yet. I have to ask her about it first,"
He still held a glimmer of hope in his heart that Ashley hadn't bed to him, that the photos with Mike and Jack were photoshopped, and that she hadn't gone to meet them at all. He hoped she was still his obedient little sister.
He thought, 'Exactly, these photos are too weird. With Ashley's personality, she would never let anyone take advantage of her like this. She's Ashley. not one of those hostesses who sell themselves to make a living. If these photos are exposed, it impact the Harvey family Joseph called Ashley multiple times, but she didn't answer. He could only look toward Lloyd and Manuel "Lloyd, Manuel, do you know where Ashley is!"
Lloyd and Manuel felt that this was something serious, but they shook their heads, Joseph could only say, "Can you help me ask Ashley's friends where she might've gone! I'm going out to find her. Also, don't tell Mom and Dad yet, so they don't worry." Lloyd started. "Hey! Joseph."
Joseph had already rushed out before he could finish speaking
Marmel cursed, "Damn it! What the hell happened?"
Lloyd consoled, "Manuel, listen to Joseph Let's find Ashley I
key first. We
can figure things out afterwards"
It was rare to see Joseph so nervous. It seemed that something terribile had happened. Lloyd chose to trust Joseph.
Manuel nodded. "Okay. By the way. Frederick also went out early this morning, Maybe he's with Ashley!"
Lloyd answered, "No, I've asked Frederick. He still refuses to give up on making Selina the heroine, so he's probably planning something these days. It's got nothing to do with Ashley"
Manuel nodded. "Okay, I'll send Frederick a message anyway, Let's go, Lloyd."
Joseph drove off in his Lamborghini and called Ashley's best friend, Lisa. Lisa had run away from home after being humiliated by Selina last time and didn't return for an entire month. Now she was fast adeep in her room when she was awakened by her ringing phone. She reached out to grab the phone and answered angrily. "Who's calling me so early in the morning? Do you think normal people don't need to rest! I'm not gonna indulge
you"
Joseph apologized. "Sorry, Lisa. I know it's still early. I wouldn't have disturbed you if it wasn't important."
sorry, Joseph I was just grumpy from waking up and
Hearing Joseph's voice, Lisa's sleepiness disappeared instantly. "Joseph Oh my gosh! I'm s accidentally yelled at you. I'm really sorry."
Joseph questioned. Lisa, I want to ask you... Has Ashley contacted you recently?"
Lisa replied, "Ashley? No, she seems to be busy with something these days.
3. She's also re
Joseph quickly said, "I have something to do so 11
replying to my messages late these days. What's wrong?" so 111 hang up now. You can go back to sleep, La.
Lisa exclaimed, "Hey, Joseph
The disconnect some greeted her instead. Joseph had hung up the phone, leaving Lisa wailing. Ah! It must be my morning temper and scolding that made him angry. That's why he's deliberately ignoring me. Why is today starting off so horribly already she wept inwardly Joseph narrowed his eyes. "Even Lin's being ignored..."
He knew that Ashley was friends with Lisa because of the Brady family. Although Trevon was Selina's husband now, Joseph didn't object to being friends with people from the Brady family, especially with an innocent girl like Lisa
to Ashley
On the contrary, he felt that Ashley had grown up and knew how to plan for her future. As the daughter of the Harvey family, how could she rely un her family for everything? He didn't expect her to become a blockbuster like Ruby, but she shouldn't drag the family down. The more Joseph thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He could only search in the places Ashley frequented and wait for her call, I'd be

troublesome if those photos were exposed.
In the meantime. Ashley didn't know that Joseph and the others were looking for her everywhere. She was having breakfast with Benjamin. Fearing that someone's call would interrupt her seducing Benjamin, Ashley simply put her phone on silent mode. Benjamin took the initiative to serve Ashley a pancake and asked, "Ms. Harvey, is the breakfast here delicious?"
Ashley agreed, "It's delicious. The breakfast here is very famous and one must queue up in advance to eat here. So, I never really had the chance. Now, I can actually enjoy it thanks to you."
"Ms. Harvey, you know how to joke. With your status as the daughter of the Harvey family, I think you can easily buy breakfast from hundreds of places, let alone this one."
Ashley chatted and laughed with Benjamin, having a harmonious conversation.
She had learned about Benjamin's preferences in detail from Mike and Jack. She knew his liking for classical music and distaste for pop music, his favorite food and the food he disliked. She put a lot of effort into trying to please him. Naturally, Benjamin was very happy.
There weren't many men who could make Ashley work so hard to please, but Benjamin was one of them. Most ordinary men would bow down to her with the slightest seduction, just like Jack and Mike.
Looking at Benjamin's handsome face and remembering that he was young, promising and an incredibly famous trader on Wall Street in Mumzik, Ashley had searched for his records on the Internet and was dazzled by the amount of awards he had won Ashley couldn't help but fall for his smile.
How
great would it be if such a good man could be with her? If she couldn't get Trevon and Edwin, Benjamin was also a good choice. The key was that Benjamin and Frederick could work together to make her the heroine of "The Game of Viego". That way, she could become a famous actress all over the world, gaining fame overnight and attracting the envy of countless people.
Benjamin called, "Ms. Harvey?"

While Ashley was daydreaming, he called her name a few times. Only then did she come back to her ser was a little distracted just now."
Benjamin smiled and picked up the handkerchief beside him. He took the initiative to stand up and wipe the corner of Ashley's mouth. "What were you thinking about? You were so out of it, you didn't even notice the sauce on the corner of your lips."
Ashley's body tensed up in an instant, as if struck by lightning. Her mind was filled with Benjamin's smile and the faint scent of cologne radiating from his body as he approached her. Everything drove her crazy, Benjamin said, "There"
After he wiped the corner of Ashley's mouth, she came back to her senses. She blushed and lowered her head. Tm... I'm sorry, Mr. Wallace. I lost my composure."
This time, Ashley wasn't pretending to blush.
Benjamin chuckled as he said, "Ms. Harvey, you're so adorable. A beautiful girl like you must have a lot of admirers, right? Do you have a boyfriend
