Chapter 14 Let’s Divorce

Manuel paused for a long time. Ainsley thought that he would not answer. Then she heard him say flatly,

“It’s a friend.”

His tone was a little strange. Ainsley had no intention of prying other people’s lives, so she quickly

changed the topic. “Mr. Gage, please forgive me. Can I ask about your sister’s symptoms?”

“She can’t see blood. She suffers from amnesia from time to time. When she sees a stranger, she will

retch and scream. On some occasions, she is unable to control her fear and she will scream.”

He looked a bit distant and indifferent.

After listening to Manuel’s description, Ainsley was thoughtful.

These symptoms were all reactions from hyperstimulation syndrome. There might be some scenes in

Serina’s memory that made her scared.

Before Ainsley could tell Manuel this, Dixie had already walked over with clothes in her hands. “Ms.

Easton, the hot water is ready. These are Ms. Gage’s clothes. Your figures are similar. You can change

into them.”

Ainsley thanked Dixie gratefully and went to the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.

However, she did not expect that her immune system would be so weak. When she changed her clothes

and dried her hair, her cheeks were red and her eyes were blurred.

Manuel looked at her face and was stunned. He placed his hand on her forehead to feel the temperature.

He felt a little helpless. “You have a fever.”

Ainsley was already dizzy from the fever. She only felt that Manuel’s voice was very pleasant and she

subconsciously refused, “I’m fine. Please call Lainey for me. She will take me back.”

Probably because of the fever, she sounded a little childish and she looked soft. Manuel’s eyes were

cold but helpless. He bent down to carry her. Then he dialed Lainey’s number.

In a daze, Ainsley moved closer into Manuel’s arms where she felt warm. Manuel’s warm breath brushed

past her ear as he said, “Dixie, I’ll take her to the hospital first.”

When Ainsley woke up, Manuel was already gone. She only heard Lainey sigh in relief.

“Aisy, are you awake? Are you hungry? Take the porridge. I got someone to buy it for you.”

Ainsley was indeed a little hungry after not eating anything for a day. She took the porridge and thought

of what happened last night. She asked, “Lainey, who sent me to the hospital?”

There was a mischievous smile in Lainey’s eyes. “Right, I haven’t got the time to ask you. Where did

you meet that man? Tsk, tsk, tsk, he’s so handsome, and he is such a gentleman.”

Then Ainsley was sure that it was Manuel who had sent her to the hospital.

Ainsley’s heart ***a beat. She then heard Lainey continue to praise, “Aisy, he is much better than Cason,

that ***. How did you get him? Why would he send you to the hospita!?”

Ainsley had a headache from Lainey’s questions, so she briefly told her what happened yesterday. When

it came to Manuel, she only told Lainey that he was a friend.

After hearing what Cason had done, Lainey was so angry that she didn’t even ask more about

Manuel.

“***, Cason is shameless. He doesn’t keep his word. For the sake of Kaliyah and her family, he even

made you sick! I’ll call him and ask him what he was thinking!”

Ainsley stopped her, “No need, he didn’t do anything wrong. The house is under his name. After all, he

hasn’t transferred it to me. The paperwork hasn’t been finished.”

Lainey felt aggrieved. “But he already said he would give the house to you!”

Ainsley said, “Relax, no one can bully me.”

However, she needed to find a house for the time being.

Just as Ainsley turned on her phone and was about to check if there was any suitable apartment online,

she saw that she had a new friend on Line. She opened Line and saw two messages.

Manuel: “I am Manuel.”

Manuel: “Yesterday, your friend was taking care of you. I got your account from your friend.”

Ainsley thought of what happened yesterday and typed: “Thank you for what

you

did yesterday.”

She thought about the house and asked: “Mr. Gage, can I ask how your sister bought the apartment? I’m

going to University of Washington recently and I want to rent an apartment nearby.”

After sending it, she felt that she was a little rude.

Fortunately, Manuel did not reply after a long time. Ainsley secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was

almost recovered and she did not want to continue staying in the hospital. She went through the

discharge formalities with Lainey. After that, she called Cason directly, “Where are you now?”

Cason frowned and said indifferently, “What is it?”

“Come to the local court. Let’s divorce.”
