A Love Trap

Chapter 12 Threat

Ashley didn't think that she was obliged to sacrifice her happiness for the sake of the Mu family.

These past few days, she had realized that her foster parents were the most selfish people she had ever met.

Perhaps if they hadn't drugged her in an attempt to use her to please Michael, they probably wouldn't have messed with him.

The Mu Group knew that they were strong, and took no effort in hiding that fact. Surely losing a stupid business would not be much of a problem for them, Ashley thought to herself.

"Hey, are you even listening to me? You need to be there at 3:00 pm this Saturday. Don't forget it. If you don't show up, I'm really going to get upset with you and teach you a lesson," Peggy warned, her voice brimming with anger. Only then did she just notice that Ashley was not paying attention at all to her.

"You'd better forget that stupid plan. I'm not going there," Ashley said, casting a cold glance at Peggy.

In her head, however, she actually had some misgivings. 'What if Ashley doesn't go on that date? What if she messes this up again?

But she should have no say in this matter. She must go there, ' she thought.

Ashley had stopped in her tracks, her hand already on the door. She sneered inside.

'If they wanted to use me to marry a rich man just so that they can expand their business, maybe they should have adopted more girls.

That way, they could have taught them skills about how to seduce wealthy men, ' she scoffed.

Peggy square in the eyes, completely devoid of any emotion. She asked, "Can you promise that I will have nothing
