Unbreak My Heart

"Ashley... Ashley, what do you think?" Chloe asked.

Ashley nodded. "Opening a pet store is quite a good idea. However, we are going to need to find a way to tame the pets. If we can't tame them, then we have to at least find a way to make them obedient. If they are not well-behaved, no one will want to buy them. Just think about it! Who would want to buy a disobedient pet to take back home?"

Chloe gave up. "Just forget about it then. It's too much trouble. What if these pets scratch us while we are training them? We would definitely regret our current decision then."

Thinking of this, Chloe gave up on her idea quite easily.

Ashley was amused by her words and explained, "We don't have to tame the pets ourselves. We just need to find someone qualified in animal behavior to tame them for us. We don't have to risk that much."

"No, I will have to think of another idea. What else can we do?" Chloe replied, racking her brain as she held her head with her hands.

Ashley didn't say anything more to her, instead she began to make her own business plans.

Although none of Chloe's ideas were what Ashley wanted to do, Chloe did have a good idea of starting a business.

At present, the most important thing for Ashley was to start making money as soon as possible. Starting a business was not that difficult. Money was the most important factor, and the end goal.

In the afternoon, Lena sent a message to Ashley, telling her that she couldn't come to see her this afternoon because the company affairs were keeping her too busy.

Ashley smiled and messaged her back, telling her to focus on her own work and not to fret about her.

Ashley had known without a doubt that Lena would not be able to come see her today.

No one would allow Lena, who was now having a promising career and a bright future, to visit so often with a plagiarist.

"Who were you texting with just now? Why are you smiling so happily? Tell me the truth," asked Chloe.

Chloe was curious why Ashley suddenly smiled while texting on the phone.

Ashley explained, "It's nothing–just a friend of mine. She had promised she would come to see me after work today

omen."

Her head snapped up, and Chloe gritted her teeth as she said, "I dare him!"

Ashley couldn't help laughing out loud at this.

Only now did Chloe realize that Ashley was poking fun at her. "Well, Ashley, I didn't expect that you had become such a bad girl. How dare you make such a joke at my expense!"

Facing Chloe's 'punishment, ' Ashley didn't stand a chance to fight back. After a while, Ashley begged for mercy, "All right, all right! Chloe, you win. You win!"

Managing to calm herself down, Chloe started to explain, "It's not that I don't want to get married. It's just that I'm afraid of going through the whole thing.

Ashley, you know about my past... My father and my mother were so happy when they got married. My father loved me, and he spoiled me very much.

But no one could have guessed what would happen later,"

as she spoke, she smiled bitterly. "It turned out that his love for my mother was a joke! It wasn't real at all! He was also sweet talking another woman on the side, and making fake promises to her! Not only that, he was also spoiling all his illegitimate children! I wasn't special at all!

Ashley, you have no idea what my mother had to go through once she knew the truth. My mom really wanted to divorce him after she found out his secret. But my father refused to give her a divorce. He claimed that he still loved my mom, and that his affair with that woman was just an accident."
