A Love Trap
Chapter 130 My Next Girlfriend

But Ellie thought that he acted this way because he was uneasy.

Ellie didn't mind his presence in such a big ward. Besides, there was nothing expensive or important outside the bedroom. After another look at him, she came back to her grandpa. "Ellie, who's there?"

"No one. It's just a cat. Grandpa, I need to go out for a while. I'll come back soon. You just stay here and have a good rest," Ellie said gently.

"Okay! Don't worry about me. I can take care of myself," Brown said, as he waved Ellie away.

Assured, Ellie came out of the room.

Andrew had arranged two nurses for Brown, but Ellie refused the offer. She wanted to look after her grandpa herself now that he was in J City with her. Of course it would be more laborious for Ellie to do so, but she didn't care. When Ellie came out, she saw the man sitting on a chair, his back to her. He was playing on his phone.

Ellie went up to him and asked, "How long are you going to be here?"

Francis looked at the time on his phone. He guessed, or rather hoped, that the lady who had been chasing him had left. So he put his phone in his pocket and rose. "I'll leave now." Francis didn't look at Ellie even now.

Because he didn't want to have that horrible experience again. The picture of that fat lady chasing after him was still vivid in his mind, which was like psychological trauma for him. If he experienced that again, he thought he would definitely pass out. He decided to wash his face to refresh himself.

"All right," Ellie said, as she left the room first.

As Francis passed by Ellie, he smelled a familiar fragrance. His nose subconsciously followed the fragrance.

The moment he raised his head, he was greeted with the sight of Ellie who lowered her head and was closing the door. Her soft black hair was up in a messy bun, a few strands of hair dancing in the breeze.

Her ivory skin was wonderfully beautiful, and her long eyelashes trembled as her eyes blinked. Francis could hear his heartbeat.

The aura around her was gentle, mellow, and peaceful.

When Ellie noticed that he was looking at her, she turned to him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ellie froze as she saw Francis's face. Francis had had his head lowered so Ellie hadn't been able to see his face until now. His clothes had made her think that he was a cute college student. She had never expected him to have such a beautiful face.

That was right. Beautiful! He was more beautiful than most girls. His soft white skin and charming eyes were so attractive that one look at him would make anyone fall for him.

Ellie was amazed. She had never seen such a beautiful boy. No! A beautiful man.

Ellie and Francis were looking at each other, stunned.

Ellie was in a loose, casual white T-shirt and an azure blue skirt that fell to her knees.

Ellie was not breathtakingly beautiful. She was like red wine that needed time to taste the beauty in it. Her big, round eyes and fair skin only added to her attraction.

Francis felt that he didn't need to wash his face now, because her beauty had refreshed him.

"No! Nothing! You are going out? What a coincidence! Me too! Maybe we are going in the same direction. Do you need a lift?" Francis asked fervently, not taking his eyes off her. Ellie had no idea where his sudden enthusiasm stemmed from.

She smiled politely and said, "No, thanks." She walked past him, and Francis shamelessly followed her.

The more Francis looked at Ellie, the more obsessed he became with her. 'She is my next girlfriend, he thought to himself.

Ellie walked faster when she noticed that he was following her, but Francis sped up as well.

Ellie stopped suddenly and turned around to confront Francis. "Why are you following me?" she asked, as her eyes were like the size of saucers.

'Oh my god! She is so pretty even when she's angry!' Francis thought at the sight of her widened eyes.

Francis looked at her innocently and said, "No, I'm not! I'm going out of the hospital as well. It's just a coincidence."

Ellie found herself at a loss for words.

'All right! Coincidence!' she thought, trying to comfort herself.

It was hot as Ellie waited for a taxi outside the hospital. What was worse, it was hard to get a taxi in such weather.

Almost every taxi that passed by Ellie was occupied.

Her face turned red after she had waited for a while under the sun.

Francis slowly drove his car up to Ellie, and he said, "Hey! Beautiful lady! It's hard to get a taxi now. Where are you going? I can drive you there."

Ellie ignored Francis. She could tell that he was a playboy from the way he acted. She didn't want to have anything to do with a man like him.

Ellie and Ashley were similar in some aspects. Both of them only wanted a normal life.

Neither of them wanted to be involved with anybody significant, but destiny always played out against their wishes. The ones they didn't want to get involved with somehow always seemed to replace them. 'She is really special, 'Francis thought as he raised his eyebrows.

Unfortunately, God was laughing at his expense. Just as he finished talking, an empty taxi pulled up in front of Ellie.

Ellie opened the taxi door and was about to get in. But Francis was faster. He got out of his car and closed the taxi door that Ellie had just opened. He said to the driver, "I'm sorry, sir. We don't need a taxi now. My wife and I are in a little fight." Ellie was furious at his words and she interrupted angrily, "What the hell are you talking about? Don't listen to him, sir. I don't even know him. Of course I need this taxi."

"Honey, I'm so sorry! It's all my fault! Please forgive me! Please!" Francis pleaded, as he held Ellie's hand.

"Let me go!" Ellie went scarlet with anger and stared at him, her eyes wide.

"No! I won't let you go this time," Francis said, suddenly getting dramatic.

"Hey! Do you still need this taxi?" the taxi driver yelled at them. He had become annoyed by them.

"Yes!"

"No!"

The driver scowled at them, shook his head, and drove away.

Ellie had been waiting for a long time and when a taxi had arrived, she had missed it because of this strange man. It was only natural that Ellie got mad at him.

"Come on, beautiful lady! No matter how long you stare at the taxi, the driver will not come back. He's gone. Get in the car! Tell me where you are going! I can drive you there." Francis was in a good mood, unlike Ellie. He even had the gall to put his hand on Ellie's shoulder."
