Chapter 380 Once In A Life Time Event
"Can I leave now?"
Amaia waved her hands and said, " Of course, you can. I don't want to delay you any further."
"Thank you," Ashley smiled at Amaia.
Ashley was a little later than usual while Andrew was punctual as always. When Ashley got into the car, Andrew glanced at her.
"What's wrong?" Ashley asked, touching her face. "Is there anything on my face?"
Andrew shook his head, "No. It's just you're five minutes later than usual."
Ashley was taken aback at Andrew's ability to recall tiny details like this.
She began to explain, "I just got held back by work."
"Okay." Andrew nodded.
Throughout these past few days, Ashley was able to find out what Andrew's grandfather liked.
Like most old people, his grandpa liked tea, chess, and fishing. They just wanted to relax and enjoy a carefree life.
Johnny had already helped prepare her present, a box of superior West Lake Longjing Tea.
Andrew had mentioned once that his grandpa liked that.
The following morning, Andrew got up early. He had already dressed up for the day before he woke Ashley up.
Ashley seemed to be still sleeping soundly as she was buried under the quilt.
Andrew didn't want to wake her up.
However, his father had moved to the suburbs after he'd turned over his shares and control of the company to Andrew.
The suburbs were quite far from the city proper.
Andrew gazed at Ashley's rosy skin and slightly open mouth as he sat by the bed.
"Ash, wake up." Andrew pinched Ashley's face. Her face was so soft.
"Stop!"
Ashley had slapped Andrew's hand away.
She mumbled something and rolled over to sleep again.
Andrew just smiled.
He didn't know that her lovely wife was a lazybones.
"Ash, you have to get up now. We are going to visit Grandpa today."
Upon hearing this, Ashley immediately sat up and cried, "I almost forgot! What time is it? Are we going now?"
"Not yet. We still have time. But you have to dress up now. If you still want to sleep, you can sleep in the car, okay?"
Ashley shook her head, "No."
She was already awake.
"Wait for me here. I'll go wash up."
It was already eight o'clock when Ashley finished dressing up and Josef was already waiting outside.
Before they went out, Andrew told Claire that they'd be gone the whole day.
Although Ashley said she was already awake, she was still sleepy when she got into the car.
Andrew was working on his laptop when he noticed Ashley leaning her head against the window and slowly nodding off.
He put away his computer and put Ashley's head on his shoulder. Nothing made him happier.
It was a new feeling.
He'd never done this to any other woman except Ashley.
It was only then did he realize how emotional a woman could make a man.
Just looking at her gave him all sorts of feelings. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
"Slow down," Andrew ordered Josef.
She needed to sleep well.
He didn't care if they would be late.
Josef nodded and did as he was told.
Even if he was already driving at the slowest and safest speed. Maybe he needed to be slower like a snail perhaps.
Josef often joked inwardly to himself. A little like what Johnny did.
It was Johnny's fault that Josef was able to joke around like that.
The car had just passed by a lot of parasol trees when Ashley woke up.
There were big and tall trees on the either side of the road. The sun shone through the leaves and reflected on the road; it was dazzling.
This was the scenery Ashley caught when she looked out the window.
Ashley sat up and rubbed her eyes. "Are we there yet?" she asked.
"Almost," Andrew answered.
Ashley kept looking out the window throughout the remainder of the drive.
It was a beautiful view.
It was like they were heading towards a fairyland.
All you could see were flowers, trees, and grass.
The cool wind was refreshing.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a villa which was surrounded by flowers and trees Ashley hadn't seen before.
Johnny took two days off as allowed by Andrew. Johnny thought it was too much.
He couldn't even believe it at first.
Andrew, however, just didn't want Johnny to disturb his private time with Ashley.
Andrew got off the car and offered his hand to Ashley, "May I?"
Ashley was a little nervous. Her hand was a little sweaty when she put it on Andrew's hand.
Ashley tugged Andrew's sleeve and asked worriedly, "Do I look okay? Good? Will Grandpa like me?"
Ashley wore a white knee-length skirt and a pair of black and white sandals.
She tied her hair up in a loose bun with a few wisps of hair flying about.
Her eyes were big and bright, which looked quite lovely.
"Yes, he will. You're very beautiful. Don't worry," Andrew said.
Ashley heaved a sigh of relief. She smiled at Andrew then followed him, her hand still pulling at his sleeve.
Andrew like the feeling of that. He smiled to himself.
