Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 278 What Happened Yesterday?

“Clara, why didn’t he stay with me last night?” Irene asked with red eyes.

The answer was obvious whether Manuel liked it or not. Clara didn’t even need to beat

around the bush. Even she knew Manuel did not like Irene.

Clara looked away from Irene. Clara stammered, “Ms. Wade, Mr. Gage probably had something to do. Didn’t he agree to his father’s condition?”

Irene knew that Manuel had agreed, but she was well aware that Manuel was forced to

do so.

Although Irene claimed to be outstanding, love was too complicated to understand.

Irene received a call, “Ms. Wade, Mr. Gage returned to his own house after leaving the Wade’s house yesterday.”

Hearing this, Irene breathed a sigh of relief, but the next words made her feel pain.

“About half past midnight, Mr. Gage left again.”

Before the other party could finish, Irene asked eagerly, “Did he go to the Ink Club?” The person replied, “Yes, Mr. Gage went to the Ink Club and came out with a woman. They originally wanted to take a car, but I did not know what the woman said. Mr. Gage did not get in the car and left with her on foot…”

Irene was panting. She was so angry that she almost threw away her phone. She finally regained some sanity. “Then? Where did they go?”

The person on the other side of the line paused before continuing, “I don’t know. I didn’t follow them all the way. There were no cars on the road, and they walked back. It

was not easy

follow them.”

“Alright, I understand.”

Irene closed her eyes fiercely. After hanging up the phone, she opened her eyes and

swept away the worry and exhaustion. Her eyes were full of hatred.

Clara looked at Irene worriedly. “Ms. Wade, what’s wrong?”

Irene shook her head and said to Clara with a pale face, “I’m fine. Clara, leave me

alone.”

“Alright, call me if you need anything.” Clara left worriedly.

Get Boys

Irene pinched the space between her eyebrows. She hated Ainsley to the core. Why did this woman

always appear in front of Irene? Ainsley should go to hell!

Irene clenched her fists tightly and another vicious plan appeared in her mind.

“Wow, it looks like something that happens in a love drama!”

“I told you that they must be a couple. Don’t forget that Cinderella, who married the prince, is the

daughter of the Count. Even if the ugly duckling can become a white swan, it is because it is hatched in a

goose egg.”

“Previously, I could always see the scandal between Manuel and Ainsley in the news. Have you noticed

that ever since Ms. Wade returned to the country, Ms. Wade has been linked with Manuel? It seems that

Ainsley has lost her position.”

“Is this worth your careful consideration?” Cinderella’s stepmother’s daughter will be

beaten back to her original form in the end. No matter how much she stirs up the scandal with Manuel,

as long as Manuel’s destiny returns, she has to step aside!”

Ainsley looked at the comments on her phone with an ugly expression. She could not

find a point to refute them. These people were all right.

Irene was not an ugly duckling. She lived in a swan’s nest, and she was also not

Cinderella. She was the Princess from the beginning.

If Ainsley had seen these comments before yesterday, she might not have cared too

much. There were many things Irene did not remember yesterday, but only the words.

that Manuel had said to Irene.

“Manuel, they all said that you like Ainsley but me. They said that I stood in your way. Is that true?”

“Not true.”

Ainsley forgot a lot of words, but she remembered these two words clearly. They were right. Ainsley

looked like a clown. As long as Irene appeared, Ainsley had to stand aside.

Ainsley woke up this morning dizzy. She couldn’t remember the things that happened yesterday at all.

Get Hops

She remembered that after she scolded Cason, she had been drinking with Lainey.

After getting drunk, Ainsley passed out. Where was Lainey?

Ainsley put on her clothes and went downstairs. She found that Matteo was looking at her with a gentle

face. Perla had already cooked some soup.

“Aisy, come and drink this soup.”

Ainsley obediently sat at the dining table and finished the soup. She asked curiously, “Matteo, how did I

come back yesterday? Where is Lainey?”

“Lainey has already returned home. Yesterday, the boss of the bar called me and asked me to pick you

up.”

Ainsley nodded doubtfully. She clearly heard Manuel’s voice yesterday.

On the road where they were alone, she seemed to hear what she said and Manuel’s

answer.

In the Glover’s building, Ainsley and Lainey came together to look for Hudson.

Hudson did not come to his company often, but he had been a little more diligent these days.

“Hudson has asked me many times. Today, I finally asked Roman to do it for me. Aisy, because of my going to the bar the last time, Roman ignored me for a long time. I begged him for a very long time.”

“Don’t drink so much next time,” Ainsley couldn’t help but laugh.

“By the way, did Mr. Gage blame you?” Lainey sighed.

Ainsley frowned slightly and asked in confusion, “Him? Why would he blame me?”

Lainey patted her head. “You really passed out. You don’t even know who sent you home yesterday.”

“What happened yesterday?” Ainsley asked.

Lainey told her what happened last night briefly, “Roman took me away and called Mr. Gage to pick you up.”

Ainsley narrowed her eyes. Yesterday, it was not her cousin but Manuel?

Then why did Matteo lie?

There was no time to think. The secretary had brought them upstairs. In the president’s office, Hudson was playing games.

“***-! Watch your position!” He scolded his teammates through the microphone.

When he saw Ainsley and Lainey, he immediately stopped. “Hey, why are the two of you

here?”

“Do you not welcome us?” Lainey quickly took out the pork knuckle and placed them on his desk. “We came here today to give you pork knuckle. Last time at the wine tasting,

you helped the Easton family. This is a gift.”

Ainsley couldn’t help but laugh from the side. How would Hudson accept the gift of

some pork knuckle when they signed a contract of tens of millions of dollars?

However, what surprised her was that Hudson directly took the pork knuckle and ate them with relish. “Not bad. Next time, remember to bring me a roasted lamb leg. The

whole one.”

“Sure! If you like it, I will give it to you tomorrow.”

Hudson couldn’t believe it. “Are you still the person who robbed me of my wine at the banquet? You came here just to give me pork knuckle? Don’t have any ideas about my red wine.”
