A Love Trap

Chapter 836 A Good Schemer

Anyway, it didn't matter because she had to stay behind either way and look after the two kids.

Andrew nodded and said, "Wait for me here."

"Okay," Ashley replied.

She didn't pay much attention to the guards who haven't stopped arguing with Harvey on all sorts of things. Instead, she wiped Dany's hair carefully with a piece of tissue.

"Well, let me take a look on the other side of your face, and see if we missed anything."

Ashley told Dany after wiping one side.

Dany nodded and turned her head obediently to give her a better view.

Ashley wiped Dany's hair gently, and in the process accidentally touched Dany's ear, but she didn't put much thought to it.

Then she hesitated with her hand midair and inspected the ear closely.

Ashley saw the mole on Dany's left ear, which was the same as the birthmark on Fabio's right ear.

Ashley suddenly felt as if time had stopped moving and everything was happening in slow motion. She started hyperventilating and tried to take in deep breaths so that she wouldn't scare Dany.

She stopped what she was doing and closed her eyes, as if trying to command her emotions to behave.

But Ashley was fighting a losing battle. The handkerchief that she had clutched in her clammy hands had dropped to the floor. She stared at the mole on Dany's ear with her eyes erratically glossing over each angle of the ear.

The surprise, doubt and shock she was feeling were all portrayed in her glass eyes. Her heart almost exploding from her chest, she tried to lift her hand to touch the ear, but it was shaking too much.

This was her Tangyuan.

This was her daughter, her long lost daughter, there was no way she could be mistaken!

Ashley suddenly hugged Dany tightly, "Baby, my daughter, my baby."

She choked on her words trying to desperately hold on to her tears because she knew that as soon as they started streaming from her eyes, it would never stop.

All of a sudden, Dany was tightly held in Ashley's arms. She, in turn, wrapped into Ashley's arms in a hug that almost squeezed all the air out of her little lungs.

Although Dany didn't understand what was going on, she liked being close to Ashley. So she stayed in Ashley's arms, quietly savoring the moment.

After a long while, Ashley let go of the little girl and looked at her with all the gentleness and care in the world.

Dany blinked and looked at Ashley. In the past, Ashley always looked at her with gentleness, but today was the first time that she had looked at her like this.

She was giving her, the same gentle and loving look she always gave Fabio.

"Auntie are you okay?"

Dany asked, looking confused.

Ashley replied while gently rubbing Dany's face, "Baby, I'm not your auntie. I'm your mommy. You're my daughter1"

"But my daddy said that I didn't have a mommy," Dany replied.

She wasn't sure what Ashley was talking about, but Dany really wanted Ashley to be her mother. She didn't understand did she felt so strange.

"Your daddy? Was he the one who came to pick you up at the villa before?" Ashley asked as her eyes darkened.

"Yes, that's my daddy,"

Dany answered.

"No, he can't be your daddy. The man who was sitting right next to mommy just now is your real daddy," Ashley said with force.

"No way! He is my daddy! I have lived with him since I was a little girl," Dany said. Her face was turning red with every statement she made.

She was a little unhappy at the affront on the only daddy she knew.

Ashley lowered her head and thought, 'Tangyuan is my daughter, my daughter with Andrew. But now she calls another man, her daddy.'

Dany noticed that Ashley had lowered her head, looking upset. She didn't want to make Ashley unhappy. However, she also loved Cayn very much and she didn't want anything to separate her from her daddy.

She also became upset at the thought.

"Auntie, I'm sorry," Dany said in a low voice.

Ashley looked up and smiled at her. "It's okay, don't worry, everything is going to be fine."

She pulled Dany closer to her chest and held her tightly.

Ashley had finally found her daughter. She wanted to weep with joy.

Even if her daughter was calling someone else 'daddy', it was not a big deal.

Dany was her daughter and she would be back in their lives soon.

"Dany, what happened to your mommy? Where is she?" asked Ashley conversationally.

"I don't have a mommy. I only have a daddy. But Daddy promised that he will find a mommy for me soon," Dany replied with confidence.

'Why doesn't she have mother?' Ashley wondered.

"Well, what kind of mommy do you want, baby?" Ashley asked with a smile.

Dany hazarded a shy look at Ashley and said in a low voice, "I want a mommy like you." Dany always thought of Ashley as gentle, nice, and she always ready to hug her.

Ashley smiled and didn't say anything. She and her Tangyuan were definitely mother and daughter. She believed that blood was always thicker than water and that was why Tangyuan seemed to have a special connection with her.

"Dany! Where are you? Come down here!"

While Ashley held Dany in her arms, enjoying the moment, a voice came from behind them.

The voice sounded familiar.

"My daddy is here."

Dany, who was nestled in Ashley's arms, said in a low voice.

She was a little scared because she had run away from Cayn earlier.

Ashley patted Dany on the back to comfort her. "Don't worry. Mommy is here to protect you."

Ashley held Dany's hand and stood up then she carried her as they walked towards Cayn.

"You must be Mr. Mo, right?" Ashley asked. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Looking at Ashley, Cayn didn't say anything.

He stared straight at Dany in Ashley's arms and demanded, "Come here, baby we have to go."

When he found out that Dany was missing, he almost bulldozed everyone to the ground, just so he could find his baby across the sea of people.

He was a little disappointed that he had been so worried for Dany, yet she seemed be so happy and comfortable in another woman's arms.

Cayn was very angry, he looked like a bull with steam coming out of its ears.

Dany wriggled in Ashley's arms and said, "Mommy, let me go."

Ashley was so happy when she heard her baby Dany, call her, Mommy.

Dany whispered the word "mommy" in Ashley's ear so that it was just the two of them who could hear it. She liked Ashley very much and had always dreamed of calling her, Mommy.

Ashley cast a glance at Cayn. She felt very protective and didn't want to put Dany down. After all, she was her daughter.

However, she knew better, it was not the right time to try to resolve such issues with Dany present.

Ashley hesitated for a while and then passed Dany to Cayn.

Cayn held Dany close to his chest, as he inhaled her scent, trying to calm his dangerously erratic temper that was threatening to explode.

Dany was terrible at whispering and he had heard her call Ashley "Mommy."

He looked at Ashley with a frown and said with disdain, "Wow, I have to admit, you really are a good with your schemes."

They had only been together for a few days, but Dany was already calling her, her mommy.

Ashley pretended not to understand what Cayn was talking about and asked, "Mr. Mo, I don't know what you are talking about."

Although Dany returned to Cayn's arms, she still looked at Ashley with longing.

Ashley smiled at the little girl.

"Stop staring at her like that. Let's go."

Cayn would never admit that he felt jealous of his daughter's relationship with Ashley.

Dany put her arms around Cayn's neck and said, "Daddy, someone bullied me just now."

Actually, when Cayn held Dany, he had smelled the wine on her body but assumed that it was Ashley who was drinking the wine.

So he hadn't put much thought to it. But now, he realized that the smell of wine was actually a lot closer to him.

In fact, it was Dany who exuded the smell of wine.

He asked with concern, "What happened? Who dares to bully my baby?"

Dany pointed at Harvey, who was being restrained by the bodyguards the whole time. "It's him. He splashed red wine on me but luckily, I was protected by that man," she said.

When Ashley heard the word "that man" from Dany's mouth, she had the urge to correct her, that Andrew was actually her father.
