Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 195 Please Leave He drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, put the glass back on the table. “I’m going

to rest.”

“Okay.” Matteo also toasted, sat back on the seat, and looked at the phone with

complicated eyes.

Ainsley went back to the room, packed up the presents from everyone, and went to wash

up. It was already half past eleven in the evening when she sat by the bed.

Holding the bracelet that Manuel gave her in her hand, she was in a daze.

She thought, “Why didn’t he come? What was it that kept him?”

Her birthday would pass in half an hour, and she had received many blessings, but not

his.

Just as she was in a daze, the message prompt tone sounded. She picked up the phone

and looked at it. It was a multimedia message with a paragraph of text and a photo

inside.

The sleeping person in the photo was Manuel. Her heart sk*pped a beat, and the

following text was sent by Irene: Ms. Easton, I am Irene. First of all, I wish you a happy

birthday! Manuel wants to attend your birthday party, but he didn’t go because I had

some emergency, so don’t blame him.

She thought, “It’s her again, and it’s because of her.

Ainsley resisted the urge to smash the phone. She looked at the photo and didn’t know how to respond.

Ainsley turned off the phone screen, closed her eyes, and a tear dripped from her eyes. She thought that

it shouldn’t be so sad.

But after seeing the pictures sent by Irene, she always felt like her heart was being stabbed by a knife.

The pain was more painful and intense than when they broke up.

Maybe she shouldn’t have trusted Manuel again from the very beginning, so she didn’t have to get hurt

again.

Chapter 195 Please Leave.

She put the bracelet that Manuel gave her into a box and stuffed it in the corner of the

cloakroom. She didn’t want to see anything from him again.

Maybe when she was in St. Nork, she should have nothing to do with him.

Disappointed, Ainsley went to work, and Manuel chased after her after sitting down for a

while.

He put the gift box on the table and pushed it in front of Ainsley. “Aisy, I…”

His memory was very vague, and he still hadn’t remembered what had happened

yesterday. He remembered that Irene had called him and told him about the car accident,

and she was in the hospital.

When he arrived, he drank a glass of water and passed out.

It wasn’t until that morning when he woke up and looked at his phone that he thought about what had

happened yesterday, and it had been a long time since Ainsley’s birthday,

so he missed it.

“Mr. Gage, I’m working, please leave,” Ainsley said a few words through her teeth.

He looked up, his eyes were tired, and he couldn’t hide the melancholy in his eyes. “I can explain what

happened yesterday.”

Ainsley laughed at herself. “Mr. Gage, where were you yesterday? Are you with Ms.

Wade?”

They looked at each other, and there was a sense of alienation between them.

Manuel didn’t know how to answer. He went to Irene yesterday, but it wasn’t his

intention.

“Why didn’t you answer? Did you feel that you couldn’t say it? Or was it guessed by me?” Ainsley

narrowed her eyes and looked at Manuel.

She thought of the man who hugged her after she fell into the water, and he rescued her

without hesitation.

She thought, “Can Manuel still be desperate for me now?”

“Aisy, it’s my fault. I will make it up to you.”

Ainsley interrupted him and looked out of the window with distant eyes. “Manuel, tell me,

am I the same as yesterday?”

“What?”

“No, no compensation can compare to the blessing before midnight.” Ainsley lowered

her eyes and looked at Manuel.

At that moment, Manuel’s chest hurt. He knew that maybe something had changed, but

he still didn’t want to give up on Ainsley.

“Aisy, it was Irene who said yesterday that she had a car accident…”

“Manuel, do you know that she did what happened at the racecourse?” Ainsley’s eyes

widened. She wanted his answer.

Manuel nodded. “I know.”

“Why didn’t you say it? She wanted to kill me. You let me down so much. Tell Irene that my tolerance is

limited,” Ainsley said.

After she finished speaking, she pushed Manuel out of the consulting room and returned the gift to him.

“Since we broke up, don’t contact me again.”

She closed the door and drew the curtains.

Manuel returned to the office in a daze, and the assistant whispered in his ear, “Mr. Gage, Ms. Wade is

here.”

Manuel entered the office and saw Irene sitting in his seat looking at him with a smile.

“You are back. Here is the contract that was just drawn up. Take a look first.”

Manuel resisted the questioning in his heart, and read the contract. That contract was sent by Ormus,

and it was first brought to the Wade family, and then it was brought to Gage Group.

“No problem.” He didn’t know if Irene was so kind. She also revised the part of the contract that was not

good for the Gage Group.

He put down the contract and signed his name with a signature pen.

He looked at Irene, staring into her eyes. “What happened yesterday? Why did I faint?”

Irene pondered for a moment before replying, “Maybe you drank the sleeping pills given

to me by the doctor yesterday.”

She paused and said again, “I’m not intentional.”

Manuel narrowed his eyes. “What about the racecourse? Did you do it?”

A glimmer of haze flashed in Irene’s eyes, and it was fleeting. “Don’t you believe me? Do

you believe in Ainsley?”

She sat up more, and tapped her fingers on the folder. “Just for Ainsley?”

Manuel calmed down. Even if he wanted to avenge Ainsley, he had to solve the Wade

family’s affairs first.

“I happened to be there that day. Don’t do this kind of thing again.”

Irene put away her smile and took the contract. “I don’t want this kind of thing to happen

again. I’ll take it back to show grandpa first.”

At the Baldry family’s house, Cason was in a daze in the study, staring at the photo of

Ainsley, the photo of her celebrating her birthday alone.

He remembered the matter of the racecourse, and Kaliyah was also a manipulator.

“What are you looking at?” Kaliyah’s voice sounded.

Cason was startled, and put the photos into the drawer.

“Do you still remember what you promised me?” Kaliyah thought he had forgotten

everything he had said before.

He promised to only love her, and only have her in his heart, but now Cason had been

distracted by Ainsley. She could feel it. It was not fake. It was not her speculation.

“I remember. Don’t worry,” Cason explained.

Kaliyah threw herself into his arms. “Don’t forget your promise to me.” Her eyes were already red.

She couldn’t lose him. She loved him.

Cason suppressed his irritability and put his arms around her waist.

“I always remember, so don’t do unnecessary things.”

As soon as he said that, Kaliyah shivered. “I don’t understand what you said.”
