Chapter 143 She Came Back

So she was pretty sure that someone was following them.

Her palms were sweaty with tension. Serina finally noticed something was wrong with her. “Ainsley, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing,” Ainsley said warmly. She couldn’t let Serina be in danger. After all, Serina was handed to her by him.

As she walked, she took out her cell phone and called Manuel. But no matter how many times she called, it was always a busy signal. “Manuel, what the hell are you doing?” She thought.

In the airport lobby, Manuel hung up the ringing phone with a slight frown. He would have answered it, but he saw Irene Wade already walking out.

She was pushing a boarding case, wearing sunglasses and a mask. She approached Manuel and picked up a phone less than ten meters away. After hearing what the person said, she smiled with satisfaction. “Go on.”

She hung up the phone as if nothing had happened, handed the suitcase in her hand to Manuel, and took off her sunglasses to reveal a pair of affectionate eyes.

“Manuel, I knew you’d come to pick me up.” She couldn’t resist hugging Manuel, but the latter took a step back and avoided her.

The woman stood up straight as if she didn’t notice. “Manuel, why are you still so cool? Aren’t you happy to see me?”

Manuel finally showed her some gentleness. “No, I’m always like this. Grandpa wants to

see you.”

“Sure, let’s go together.” The woman followed Manuel’s pace. She said discontentedly. “You should say, Irene, welcome home.”

Manuel paused and said, “Welcome home.”

The phone sounded again and Irene glanced coldly at the phone. “Manuel, what is it?”

“Nothing but harassing calls.” He turned off the screen.

Ainsley looked at the unanswerable phone in despair. It had been four times, and he

didn’t see it?

She was already pretty sure that there were people following them, a lot of them.

She was familiar with the terrain here. But she wasn’t sure if the people were familiar with it. She pulled Serina into an alleyway. It was a dead end!

She turned around to find a man blocking the exit. Nervously, she pushed Serina behind herself. “You,

who are you? What do you want?”

The man didn’t say anything. A dozen people appeared behind him.

Ainsley thought incredulously, “Who’s up against her? And at this time?”

“Who are you guys? Don’t move!” Those people didn’t even say a word to Ainsley before they pounced

on her.

“Don’t come over!” Ainsley took her bag down to defend herself. But she couldn’t stop so many people,

especially with Serina behind her.

She felt Serina was already trembling. Her hand was in Serina’s tight grip as if it was

going to be cut off in the next second.

“I am from the Easton family. She is from the Gage family. Stop! Who sent you here!”

She waved her leather bag nervously. It was the only thing she had to defend herself

with.

But she was facing a dozen men, and they swarmed her.

The leaves in the alley rattled. The setting sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, dappling them with

light.

Ainsley and Serina were gone. A dozen men also disappeared, leaving nothing even on the ground, as if

they had vanished into thin air.

In the restaurant, Manuel and Irene sat on one side. Cody and Koen on the other side. The two families

were family friends.

Koen looked at Irene with satisfaction. “Irene, do you want to go abroad again?”

“Koen, do you miss me?” She looked at Koen playfully.

“Of course, your grandfather misses you more.” Koen looked over at Cody.

Irene looked at the two old men and smiled. “No, I’m not leaving. I’ve been away for so long, I miss

everyone too. Manuel, do you miss me?”

Manuel nodded absentmindedly. He was thinking about the phone call he hadn’t received earlier.

Irene smiled. “Koen, I’ll come to play with you more often afterward. Don’t be annoyed

with me.”

“How could I?” Koen laughed.

Matteo looked solemn at the entrance of the University of Washington. Half an hour had passed since

the end of the school day. He had called Ainsley many times. But she didn’t

answer.

She was trying to torment him again.

After waiting for a while, he gradually found something wrong. Even if Ainsley wanted to torture him, she

would not take this method.

He immediately asked for the doorman. The doorman called the counseling room and found that no one

answered. Matteo felt more and more abnormal. He immediately went to the Psychological Counseling

Room and found that it was empty. Ainsley’s things were cleaned up. Her bag and other things were

taken away.

Apparently, Ainsley had already left when she got off work. He suddenly realized that Ainsley might have

sneaked out to look for Manuel.

He clenched his fist. Why did it have to be now? He remembered that Irene was back.

He found Serina’s contact information. But he was surprised that Serina’s cell phone

was also unreachable.

Back in the car, he used his connections to get surveillance of the school’s

surroundings. He found Ainsley and Serina at the west entrance of the school. The two

went out of the west entrance and into the alleyway.

According to the different sections of the alleyway, the two went in and never came out.

So Ainsley and Serina were still in the alleyway?

But he sent someone to the alleyway to look for half an hour to make sure that no one was in the

alleyway. So where did Ainsley and Serina go?

Matteo started to panic and called Manuel, regardless of his annoyance. But Manuel

didn’t answer.

What the hell was going on? How come everyone’s calls were unanswered or

unreachable?

He thought of someone and dialed.

The person was surprised to hear his voice. “What’s up?”

“Did Aisy go to your place?” Matteo spoke quickly.

Cason subconsciously said, “What happened to Ainsley?”

“Ask your wife and sister if they did anything bad! Aisy is missing. If they did it, I’d never

let them off!” Matteo said in a stern voice.

“What? What happened to her?” Cason felt something unusual.

“Tell me when you see her.” Matteo hung up the phone, regretting it.

He was so panicked. How could Ainsley go to Cason’s?

The assistant placed the pad in front of him. “Mr. Easton, Ms. Easton’s cell phone signal

was last sent an hour ago from here.”

An hour ago?

What the hell happened here?

In the garden house, Bryan and Becky looked at what Cason had brought with

satisfaction. Kaliyah was pouring tea aside.

Cason was deep in thought after taking a phone call. When Becky talked to him, he didn’t respond.

Kaliyah nudged him. “Cason, Mom is talking to you!”

“Oh, Mom, I’m sorry. I got lost in thought. Please go on.” Cason listened distractedly to Becky ramble on about the days ahead.

All he could think about was why Matteo had just called him.
