Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 146 She Disappeared

Ainsley looked at Serina nervously. If she didn’t control Serina again, she didn’t know what the bad guys

would do.

She immediately held Serina’s hand. Even though she had been scratched and many wounds had

appeared on the back of her hand and arm. But she knew she couldn’t retreat and held Serina’s hand

tightly under her control.

She used all her strength. But she was about the same size as Serina. Not to mention

that the now mad Serina was several times stronger.

“Listen to me, Serina, I’m here. Do you see me? I’m with you, don’t be afraid, okay?” Ainsley nearly

couldn’t hold her hand.

She leaned close to Serina’s ear and repeated the phrase several times. Finally, by the third time, Serina

stopped yelling and slowly calmed down.

“Ainsley?” She said timidly.

Ainsley nodded heavily. “I’m here. Don’t be afraid, okay.”

Serina’s tears slipped down her face. She looked painfully at the person in front of her and said in a

frightened but cautious voice, “Ainsley, they will kill you. They will kill you.”

“They are demons….” Serina said as her voice grew smaller and smaller. She covered her mouth with

her fingers and bit down on her knuckles.

The men looked at Serina with dangerous and weird eyes.

Ainsley slowly held Serina closer to the corner. She used her own body to block the men’s view. She

turned around and said, “She won’t make any more noise. Don’t worry.

Don’t hurt her.”

“You’re warned to keep her under control. If she screams again, we’ll have to take her

away from here.”

“It won’t happen!” Ainsley said eagerly.

They couldn’t take Serina away. Serina was in bad condition. If Serina was taken from

the room she was in again, it would get worse.

“I assure you. Absolutely not! If you take her away, she’ll still scream. So you might as well let me try.”

She said pleadingly.

The rest of the group looked at Serina’s condition. The leader nodded and Serina was

sent back again.

“Control her!”

The door was slammed hard. The sound of chains clashing and locking the door came.

Ainsley listened. She protected Serina and slowly soothed her.

On Seattle North Road, several black cars are heading towards the suburbs. Matteo sat in the lead car,

looking coldly at the pad in his hand. The van on the video surveillance went by on this same road.

“Mr. Easton, there is no road ahead!” The driver slammed on the brakes.

Matteo immediately got out of the car. The van had gone down this road and disappeared, so there must

be a road.

“Find it!”

All the vehicles stopped and all the bodyguards got out and started looking for the road.

This was the countryside. Driving along the suburbs, there was no road when they came

this way.

Matteo looked around at the tree-filled surroundings and took a closer look.

He couldn’t afford to waste time. He didn’t know what those people wanted to do.

The more time wasted, the more danger Ainsley would be in.

The phone rang and he immediately picked it up. The caller was Manuel.

Matteo’s eyes were cold. He looked at the phone screen and did not speak. Pursing his

lips, he hung up the phone.

He investigated Ainsley’s phone records. Her last call was to Manuel. Unfortunately,

Manuel didn’t answer.

His sister was now being taken away. She was in danger. But the man she loved was on

a romantic date with someone who might be the murderer.

How ironic!

“I’m not giving up on Ainsley!”

“Aisy likes me, and I like Aisy!”

“I promise you that I will protect her.”

Hehe. How ridiculous!

These words were spoken by Manuel last time at Pearl Hotel. But now they turned out to

be nothing but a joke.

If he said he liked Ainsley, why didn’t he answer Ainsley’s phone call? It could have been

a call for help, but he didn’t answer it.

Matteo clenched his hand so tightly that his knuckles turned white. “Aisy, you’re trusting the wrong

person. Why didn’t you call me?”

Suddenly, he saw a rut. Yes, it was a rut.

He looked over to the rut. There was no road, but there were no trees either.

“Here!” He pointed in that direction.

The black vehicle was once again speeding. Matteo’s eyes were getting sharper and

sharper.

Inside the restaurant, Manuel looked at the hung-up phone and froze.

Why didn’t Matteo answer the phone?

Just as he was about to call Cason, Cason called him.

“You have Ainsley there?” Cason questioned.

Manuel narrowed his eyes slightly. “No.”

“You don’t know?” Cason’s voice was full of incredulity.

The words made Manuel even more confused. He had no idea what was going on.

“What is it?” He asked coldly.

Cason’s voice was urgent. “Ainsley has disappeared! Matteo just called me about this, and you didn’t

answer the phone. So I wanted to ask if Ainsley had gone to you?”

“Disappeared?” His pupils flinched and he frowned.

Not listening to Cason, he immediately hung up the phone. Aisy was missing?

He looked at the few missed calls belonging to Ainsley on his phone and suddenly

panicked.

Once again he had missed. Once again, a mistake led to Ainsley’s accident.

He looked at himself in the mirror with scarlet eyes, called his assistant and ordered to find Ainsley. He

called Matteo again. But Matteo didn’t answer.

He could understand why Matteo was not answering his calls. Even he couldn’t forgive

himself.

He rushed out of the bathroom. Before he could go out, he heard someone shouting.

“Manuel, where are you going?”

“Manuel, come back!”

But this time, he ignored it and drove straight to look for Ainsley.

Irene lowered her eyes and straightened her hair. Koen explained for Manuel calmly, “I’m

afraid something big has happened at the company.”

Irene laughed, saying, “Manuel is busy, I know. He’s gone, and I’m here with you, Koen.”

Cody laughed too. “Irene, you’re not going to stay with your grandpa, are you?”

“You and Koen are both my grandpa. I’ll stay with both of you.” Irene stood up and affectionately poured

them some black tea.

After sitting down again, she was very annoyed. How could Manuel have found out so quickly?

She wouldn’t believe it was because of the company. There was no telling what that **** had used to get

Manuel so obsessed. But she wouldn’t stand for that.

In the abandoned factory, Serina fell asleep under Ainsley’s hypnosis. She took off the jacket she was

wearing and put it over Serina’s body.

The room where they were locked up didn’t even have a window. From the broken machine parts, she

could see that this must be a factory.

The roof was high. She couldn’t reach the roof by stepping on something.

The only access to the entire room was through the locked door.
